Your new suspension setup sounds fabbo, Barry

Tell me - how did you decide on what would be the best ride height?

I happened to notice your interest in the car wane and a lack of attendance at events when a certain Nicola got involved with you

Although legend has it that he still burns just as much rubber as he used to

It just takes some hard work and effort from ALL members to make it happen.

Alright, alright - I said I'd try to come to a meet next year!

Does that bollard serve any other purpose than to potentially entrench itself into some poor unsuspecting punter's motor?

You have to wonder if it isn't a regular occurrence when someone's actually gone to the trouble of leaving a traffic cone in front of the adjacent one...

John, I liked your post - and I don't care WHO calls me an erse-licker for saying that

Well said as always

This thread is starting to read more like "How Good Was Scottish Scoobies ?"

Nothing wrong with celebrating the past, of course - but it can be great again... can't it?

God i miss this car.

Still can't get over you selling it!

And, unlike either of the four birds in the last pic, your motor actually had a rear end worth admiring

Nice splitter - where did you buy it and who fitted it, if you don't mind me asking..... and how much did it set you back? (I'm getting cheeky now).

Cheers mate

Can only assume that you take the trouble to clip your cat's claws... apparently not everyone bothers (assuming my car's assailant wasn't feral, that is ).

What are you driving now, out of curiosity?

I defy anyone to go 'one louder' than the JW340!

I'm one of those lowlifes who doesn't pay for full membership, hasn't contributed to any of the charity events and doesn't turn up for any of the meets (although hoping to do something about that last one after the winter)...

The only thing I can say in my defence is that I do make every effort to wave to other Scoobyists

Despite all that, I find this to be a mostly very friendly wee place, frequented by mostly genuinely helpful, good-willed and humorous people. To date, I've had only one member treat me directly in what I considered to be a wholly shabby manner - and anyone who's spent time on a variety of internet forums will tell that's not bad going in over a year's worth of posting!

So the answer is an emphatic 'yes' - Scottish Scoobies is very good indeed

The new:

I never tire of seeing that pic... honestly, it's so clean you could make it dirtier just by looking at it!

Might see me around Stirling

I think we've exchanged waves a couple of times, at least once in my old blue hawkeye WRX - near the Riverhouse restaurant if memory serves

I have to admit to a bit of tweaking, here's the original...

Magic

Ambience courtesy of Photoshop, eh?

Funny thing is, as many times I've driven to work and seen sunrises that really were as golden and majestic as your edited pic, but I've never actually made the effort to snap a photae. My cheapo digikal camera properly wouldn't do much of a job of capturing it, mind... the eye sees so much more than yer average DSC.

I thought it was something that Subaru had come up with as a sort of homage to all those poor beggars who'd received a tongue-lashing from the missus after coming back from Andy Forrest's a few quid lighter:

Thanks. I took it in Wales, the Eppynt (sp?) viewpoint on the B4519 just south of Garth.

Ah! For a minute I thought there was some picturesque part of Fife I had yet to discover (too many hedgerows for Fife, I 'spose ).

I love that golden hue you've captured from the low sun in the cloudy sky

STOO - are you from the Stirling area?

Not sure what made me think of this, but...

Internet forum trolls.

Don't feed them!

Nice pic - from where did you take it?

Blue and gold Scooby with matching sky

Cheers John, I understand. As you say, at under £100 it could probably be considered a "might as well while I'm at it" upgrade

So you definitely prefer the Spec C, but perhaps not so clear-cut for the other Scoobs?

Not for a STI only WRX thats on Andy's site

Prodrive include a fuel pump:

As do ScoobyWorld:

Regarding Andy Wood - OK, so he calls it a 'Level 2' once you throw in the fuel pump and aftermarket air filter, but given the meagre performance figures quoted for his 'Level 1' mod (290bhp-300bhp) I can't see why anyone with a 2.5 STI (276-ish bhp) wouldn't want to add the fuel pump and air filter for a more worthwhile 340-360 bhp (figures quoted for full decat, but I can't see the sports cat being too far off the bottom end of that on the 2.5 STI).

Interesting to hear your take on "Evo vs Scooby", Joe.

Never driven an Evo, but from reviews I have this picture of them having really sharp steering (very cool), but hellish harsh ride quality (not so cool). Any truth to that?
