  1. Makes a 300+ STi seem slow in comparison lol
  2. Nice Do you have problems with kids and chalk? Kidding
  3. Hello, Quick question.... HDi Boost Controller - are these a safe bet as oposed to a Dawes Device? I was reading through this Scoobypedia Newage Mods but have read also conflicting stories about MBC's. Soooo, I looked at Electronic Boost Controllers, especially the HDi one - can this be fitted, safely, to a newage STi PPP? Electronic Boost Controller Is it a MUST to have a remap when fitting a boost controller? Any advice would be great, escpecially first hand experiance..... Charlie
  4. Chameleon in Renfew mate - they do a same day service for around £200. Leave the car at 9:30 - collect at 17:30 all done, car washed etc Highly recomended from me. http://www.bebo.com/Profile.jsp?MemberId=5551646277 0141 885 1714 - William. Hope this helps Charlie
  5. Sorry to hear abouts yours mate - I assume the other party has admitted guilt? Charlie
  6. Another for Propaint in Chapelhall. Recently repaired my mates 3dr RS Cosworth - stunning job.
  7. Correct Mine is a Prodrive Style (as stated on V5, Blue Dials, front bumper etc etc) The PPP was added to mine in 2006 - I would like to drive a non PPP 265ps to feel the difference.
  8. The 02 STi Prodrive will only have 305PS if it too has the PPP fitted. Standard STi is 265. I get similar mpg to the above, £20 is roughly 100 miles of mixed driving, hard driving half that. (mine has PPP, green filter, PFR7B plugs, catback TSL Firestorm)
  9. I passed a grey unmarked Evo 2 weeks ago on the M8 - I wondered if it was part of the fleet or just an evaluation model.
  10. You won't go wrong with William mate - top man, perfectionist! I'll get photos of mine up soon
  11. Chameleon Renfrew - I got mine done friday there, in and out in one day. Dropped the car off at 9am picked it up at 4pm. Great service and even better prices!
  12. Guilty! Work in process, missing centre caps (Scotpaints were shut today) plus TSL Firestorm to fit tomorrow if this monsoon goes away What were you in?
  13. Spotted a Black Bugeye STi with small plate just at Sainsburys petrol station Braehead. Just clocked you at the last minute as I was heading in to pick the Mrs up (after picking the car up from the powdercoaters) Charlie
  14. I telephoned S&S in Ayrshire, even quoted the original VRN as the car has had work there - the chap was very vaugue, almost cagey - was meant to get a call back, nothing! (and that was well over 4 weeks ago) I was told I can approach a automotive paint company - such as Scott Paints Chapelhall who are very close to me, they can match the paint if I can show them a wheel - which obviously I can after they are refurbished. I was also offered via another subaru based forum to have them done for £100 if I take just the alloys in, but the colour doesn't look proper Subaru gold (which is what I'm after) The alloys as they stand...... (not the best picture mind)
  15. Hard to watch, very graphic - serious stuff!
  16. I was quoted £160 and £200 via another forum for the service you state mate. They can't do centre caps - that is a problem as I can't get the same colour paint readily over the counter (i.e Halfords, Dealer etc) as the paint code seems top secret.
  17. Looking to have my STi alloys refurbished back to the original gold colour (from anthracite). Any recomendations - quality, price, timescale etc Cheers
  18. Do the crime, you do the time - and by god are they paying now! As soon as you willingly step foot in a stolen car, you deserve all that comes to you in my view.
  19. I've been waved at twice in my few months of ownership (I own a bugeye STi) - blue bugeye wagon Chapelhall, and blue bugeye STi with Decals at Showcase Lanarkshire. I always feel a knob waving and getting no wave or a dirty look in return - so now I give a discrete nod of the head.
  20. Hi folks Can someone confirm the main beam bulb fitment on the 2002 Impreza WRX STi Prodrive? I know WRX bugeyes have H4, but I have had conflicting info that the STi bugeye has H7 or H1. Cheers Charlie
  21. Hi I have a 2002MY STi fitted with the PPP therefore having the Prodrive exhaust. I have been offered a Magnex Backbox(6x4) and Magnex Centre Section. Will the Magnex be significantly louder without being silly? Any newage owners with a Magnex fitted? Any opinions? Cheers
  22. Spotted a Bugeye in WR Blue with rally type decals, spotted at Showcase roundabout in Bargeddie. Looked cool - I was in the blue Bugeye STi, with crap looking dark wheels
  23. As title, I'm looking for the paint code Subaru use on their standard 17" STi Alloys fitted to 2002 cars. Thanks
