Welcome back Charles.?

You may have seen this before but its a little reminder to anyone who says their Subaru is slow, drive it properly ? 

Hi and Welcome back!!!

Sensibleness is definitely a word but its not used very often here ?

Nice choice and it does look in good condition in the Pic. ?

Thought I’d pop down to my local Cars & Coffe which is organised by Stratstone. It was the first time I’d been as I don’t normally do carpark meets but this was properly organised. Saw a few scoobs in between the Ferraris, Lambos and Porsches.

@hackisfun I have created a new section for Northern Ireland. It would be good to get some more discussion involvement from across the water.

Hi and Welcome. Lovely looking hawk you got there.

Personally I'd go with the Bilstein's. As far as ARB are you thinking of going bigger?

From memory, which isn't that good, they are 19mm front and 21mm Rear.

Hi Simon, welcome to SIDC.

The Scoob certainly looks great in the pic and 340 is a great reliable number and will run forever. 

Hope to see it in the flesh sometime soon. ?

Hope you have a great time and find some great roads for the Scoob to do its magic. 

So the government have finally decided to allow learners on the motorway with fully qualified instructors. Part of me is pleased they have finally worked out it might just be useful. Back home in the fartherland ? one must complete several hours of motorway and night driving to pass the basic driving test. 

It is only voluntary at the moment but hopefully the next generation of drivers won’t hog the middle lane ???

Next we need to have driving lessons for performance cars to stop people jumping into vehicles the simply can’t handle. 

P.s I am getting old ????

Oops where are my manners? 

Welcome to The Forum. It would be good to hear how things progress. 

Might be worth having a chat with Andy Forrest.

Lovely motor ?

I have never seen a spoiler fix that low down, I assume the brackets are just stuck on with tape?

Hopefully someone will be able to shed some light. Nice to see someone taking a classic and restoring it back to its original beauty. Doesn’t look to bad in the pics to be honest. 

The club has no plans to visit the pod this show season but if anyone is going let Matt know.

I had better check my small print. I got AXA breakdown cover with my insurance but never thought of reading the booklet ?

This could be a whole new PPI type scandal, I bet there are people who paid for cover and are not covered. ?

I am no expert but take a look here https://www.gov.uk/capital-gains-tax-personal-possessions

from what I read it suggests you don’t pay tax. You mentioned income tax but you are not selling as a business so not sure it can be considered income.

? Good News Tony ?

 Can actually see @WRX-Dan standing about in the background. Don’t mention O2 sensor!!! ?

Although we wont be there this time, Japfest displaying some of our cars from last year ?  @t5nyw @conrod @kevin_james @33dne 

Glad you got to the bottom of it. The Forester lives on 

See this is what happens and I was only changing a bulb 

I haven’t used it for a while but I plugged in the OBD2 WiFi adapter and monitored what was going on in the Scoob. 

Power levels look good, I wonder how acccurate they are might need to do a dyno run to check them. 

315BHP & 311 lb.ft 

I did manage to get 68MPG but that was in neutral rolling down hill  but a healthy 3MPG giving it the beans

Ooooh ill await photographic evidence of the step by step instillation of the aero catches 

Hopefully it won’t go....

open box, look at bonnet, scratch head, put back in box, cup of tea, look at bonnet, put box back in cupboard, paint something pink 

Good news. ? If and when I ever get mine remapped I would also get it done on the road. I could be wrong but I don’t think Rolling Road tunes can simulate real world situations as well as actually being there. If you are simply chasing numbers I guess rollers are ok but if you want a car that responds well on the road, live road mapping must be the best option.
