  1. I don't flash because it looks like you are doing something wrong. I just give a wave like you would for saying thanks if you are let out at a junction.
  2. I think i've heard of this before. At least you figured it out in the end and didnt have to call the AA or the like
  3. My suspension doesnt feel right either. I live in Edinburgh so know all about the cobbles and uneven surfaces. Can't help you with what the noise is but if I was you I would take it back into A F Nobles and see what they say. Try and get a mechanic out with you to show him the noises you are experiencing.
  4. Will look out for you mate, im in Leith. I've got a wave from every Impreza i've waved at thats seen me...happy 100% record
  5. I saw it was a female driver...No offence meant just pointing this out! And is that a break light I see on the scooby...the fiesta must of got closer if the brakes just went on!
  6. haha, didnt see you either mate. I left around 1 with scoobysounds after his gear box failed
  7. I think the whine is tempremental. I had it a while back but not heard it since. For me it sounded like aerodynamics with the airflow going over the wing mirrors. Another memeber on here had the same noise but not sure if his has passed or not. Suspension upgrades with whiteline products definately a good way to go!
  8. Don't laugh I'm not posting for the quality of pictures but just incase either the scoobs are yours
  9. Cheers for the advice mate. Hopefully meet up soon to see your grill as I think im coming round to the idea as it looks a bit bare without it! Could also protect the radiator if any boulders decide to bounce my way!
  10. Supposidly got the front struts done about 1 month ago after a poping/knocking noise. Possible that the shockies have gone hence the reason why they are weak on heavy load so the shockies cant take the travel so it makes the wheel rub with the arch?
  11. Do I have a suspension problem? What I mean is if I turn sharp right or left (but more right) then I get a grinding noise like the arch is rubbing on the wheel? It happens when the spring is compressed under load if I turn really sharp like a harpin so I'm not talking about normal street driving or B roads ect. I notice it alot more if I have passengers. The car is still under warrenty with Grieves for another 10 months so would it best to get a mechanic out with me from there so he can check what it really is? Advice is very much welcomed! Forgot to add - Car is a 52 (2003) blob eye STi with prodrive
  12. True, only messing with you anyway bud. It is nice however to have a "perfect" car but TBH its never going to happen
  13. You must have a classic
  14. Nice pics! The scooby wagon was shocking. I heard a guy saying he was going to get black flagged, I don't know weather he did? I've got a few pics but to embarressed to load them up with the standard that is set! Nice work 4hero
  15. Happy to help mate, just a shame it didnt work out on track on such a nice day. There is always another track day though, preferably a SIDC track day when I can come on too. Hope there is one soon! Hope you get this sorted mate and it doesnt happen again ...Oh and the BBQ was yum!
  16. Nice figures Hopefully aim for that next summer
  17. What about these Lenzo's
  18. That clip had more racing than F+F!
  19. I actually like that Grant. Will need to keep an eye out for you and see what it looks like in the flesh
  20. Welcome mate. Where abouts you from?
  21. I thought it was a decent watch and nothing more. I thought there was a lack of cars and the film concentrated more on the Paul/Vin storyline. They were trying to track down the same man then joint forces. The new STi was in the last 30 mins but it looked pretty poor compared to some of the other cars on show. Worth a watch IMO
  22. Could be the same thing then albeit I have a blob. I'm not sure what it could be but was thinking something to do with the wing mirrors as thats where the sound is coming from when it happens for me...
  23. What do you mean by "nipping on"? I have a whinning/squelling noise that sounds like its definately wind related going over the wing mirrors at speeds over 90+mph - obviously not on the queens highways I must add
  24. This must be a good thing living in a new built flat. Underground parking and then the added advantage of people not knowing what flat you went into if they wanted to steel the keys! Try and take it as a compliment but it must be hard watching them always thinking the worst.
