  1. Hi and welcome mate. Enjoy!!!
  2. I know there has been a lot of time, cash and work put into this car but IMO its well over priced!
  3. Yeah my mate intends on getting him dropped a bit due to the reduced reduced reduced lol. He already has a classic so knows a bit about them, so that will possibly be for sale soon unless i can tempt him on getting it track prepped haha
  4. Not sure but my spec c didn't come with a front strut brace when i bought it
  5. My mate is coming back from sea on friday and is going to have a look at this car http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vie...e=STRK:MEWAX:IT Just wondering if anyone knows the car Cheers Joe
  6. If its an import you can legally put a smaller plate on it but it will probably end up giving you unwanted attention from PC plod. I have a normal square plate on the front of mine to be on the safe side.
  7. Pure class!!! PMSL
  8. I had my first impreza keyed up both sides, bonnet and roof while i was working on my ship. Was gutted to say the least and had to basically get a full respray. Feel for ya mate!! These jealous fookers don't deserve to be shot as that would be too good for them!!! They should get their fingers chopped off one by one and left to suffer!!!! Hope you get it fixed soon mate!!
  9. 'Killa' had them on his cars for a couple of months so the springs should be well bedded now. Gonna go fit a a couple of the struts today and a couple on monday when im back in aberdeen! Does anyone have a number for Jim King? Will give Wallace a call too to compare prices. Whats the best fast road setup? Joe
  10. Going to be fitting my coilovers tomorrow if all goes according to plan. Im at work in aberdeen for the next couple of weeks so looking for somewhere to get the geometry set up for fast road. Can anyone recommend anywhere in aberdeen that does wheel geometry? Ive only found wallace performance and will need to get the alignment/geometry done before driving home. Cheers Joe
  11. I passed one on the A9 yesterday and it was pretty well hidden behind a sign with the guys speed gun poking out form under the sign. Sneaky if you ask me. Went past it just under 80 so hopefully will get nothing!!
  12. Gonna need to get myself across to andy to perform his magic on my spec c. Building the mods first and fit them just before mapping is my plan. Nice figures jimster!!
  13. I recon all cars should come with these fitted!! Would soon stop the thieving scum!!!
  14. Bet you are glad you found that now rather than later!!
  15. Mine was a 1.1 fiesta, Which ended up in a field after 4 weeks. I suppose you learn from your mistakes lol
  16. You should have gone for a spec c!! Every bit as much fun as you can have in a classic!
  17. try these too http://www.cannell.co.uk/Manuals.htm
  18. Its just a normal spec c. Mine is a spec c type ra and if its an ra it should have black doorcards/interior instead to the blue ones in the pics. And the normal spec c has brembo brakes which this one does. (possibly been changed) I recon its just a normal spec c!
  19. Upgrade to a spec c!! You will lose the flat four burble but you will be grinning from ear to ear
  20. Don't do it you will regret it!! I had an evo 5 before being converted to the scooby world!! lol Had nothing but problems with the evo and parts are much more expensive than with the scoobs. They are quick and capable cars but the problems i encountered with mine put me off them for life!! Started with engine missfire, then anti yaw control went, helical bolt in the diff, clutch, and the list goes on!! And that was all sensible driving. Just my 2p's worth lol
  21. could be crankshaft seal or rocker cover gaskets. It happened to me with my old classic and turned out to be the rocker cover gaskets. Joe
  22. I have a standard catted downpipe if its any use to you?? Will be sure to get you through the emmissions. As for MOT's i had to change the cat every time to pass the emissions! Its just one of these things that you need to do. My old Evo failed its MOT with the exhaust being too loud. Thats all down to the discression of the MOT tester as my arguement was, would you fail a standard TVR for being too loud.
  23. anyone tried re-greasing their shocks yet?? Might give it a go at the weekend!!
  24. Cheers paul, Gonna strip my standard shocks down shortly and regrease them to see what happens!! Failing that then i'll be going for the BC's. Cant be doing with knocking shocks anymore lol!!
