  1. Very much a display item I recon.
  2. I cant say I have never done some spirited driving, but I tend to keep it in check and at times and places chosen for a far lesser risk. I use my impreza for everyday driving to work and such. My usual miles to a tank says it all for me really (300 miles, Newage, 02 with minor mods) I just dont see the point in racing around in town or when traveling on heavy used roads. I have the lack of luck in needing to use the Edinburgh city bypass and the west end of edinburgh for my work. I see so many really bad drivers and pure dangerous ones speeding everywhere it just puts me off big time. Cant count the amount of times someone has nearly crashed into me or just about caused a major crash. Bikers as well! oh my god they are accidents waiting to happen, watched so many filtering in heavy moving traffic. Some doing up 80mph, really is scary at times [] But I have to say we still have some in SIDC, I know this oh so well from a May run up north where a Green Classic Wagon over took going up a steep short hill that turned to the left with NO sight available for on coming traffic. I crapped myself seeing a SIDC member doing that. Myself and a friend watched this and saw pure lunacy driving at times. Part of the reason I havent attended all the runs.
  3. Cost for each items and fitting Cal? Interested in doing this to the car next.
  4. Sounds like warped discs, just takes this real cold weather with lots of water, sitting on the brakes at lights and bobs your uncle your discs are warped. Got new Ferodo DS2500s on the car and at high speed I got vibration through the steering wheel between 55-75 mph Put on a set of Black Diamond G12s and problem solved []
  5. Well I was under the impression rapid heating and cooling of brake parts is the worst you can do to brakes. Hard to say what the problem is really.
  6. God that looks very nice, Stealth sort of look is a [Y] for me. Get the exhaust very quiet with good performance as well and you have a right sly car for anyone wanting to play with you in it []
  7. Cant believe the brakes are standard [] Also please say they changed the gearbox, I would imagine with that amount of torque it would be like Cholocate soup after a while [:S]
  8. Well like Irish Al I drove Mr Gumball's chariot of fire and I was amazed. For Gumball to be singing your cars praises like a gospel quires it must be miles better []<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /> I still remember the day I met you for the first time on the May run at AWD and the play all the way from <?xml:namespace prefix = st1 ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags" />Perth to Elgin between our cars [] If I remember it was still standard that day! Well done Peter []
  9. Like the way the calipers have been shaped as much as possible to the disc shape. But damn thats a nice looking car. Very very nice []
  10. Someone is selling the following: Quote: 'also sti (7) bug eye ecu mapped by Andy F for the following mods, td0518g , headers, 3" exhaust, induction kit and front mount, was making 1.5 bar boost and approx 360 odd bhp.. comes with ecutek license for further mapping from andy F or your choice of mapper' Does anyone know if that ECU can be used on an 02 Bugeye WRX car and also will Andy F fit it and be happy to do further maps on it for me?
  11. you could do some interesting off roading with that [H]
  12. Wow u 2 are going the full hog on this beast []
  13. Get well soon Rosie! []
  14. Light on the wallet after purchase as well I bet [:'(]
  15. Looks like some mighty fine toys there Higgy [] building the engine yourself?
  16. Hey Spooks wasnt trying get at you m8, you know more than me[]. I went along to Chris Alans on Wednesday and he says that bulbs were a low rating for the full beams... He later found that the mains werent H7s so I was lost at that point. He then said they were H1s but I want to check before I go ordering another set to find they are wrong [:S]
  17. Can any one tell me the bulbs that I need for a set of Morettes for an 02 impreza? I was told that it was 2 H7s for the dipped and full beam but when I took it for a service Chris Alan said that 1 is H1 and that the H7 bulbs I got are low rated at only 55watts/ Can anyone please tell me what I need before I go spending more cash as powerbulbs? Cheers Pete
  18. Had Goodyear F1s GS-D3 XLs on my old rims, but my new rims I collected at the weekend came with a near unused set of Bridgestone Potenzas RE040s. They are a bit louder on the road but I havent yet noticed a loss of grip in the wet so far. But they are just until need a new set. Chris Alan whos servicing my car tomorrow is still recommending Potenzas as well, hes running a set on his Evo atm and hes very happy with them Goodyear F1s GS-D3 XLs http://eu.goodyear.com/uk_en/tires/reposit...SD3_2/index.jsp Bridgestone Potenzas RE040s http://www.bridgestone.co.uk/bfe/v/index.j...00000000712RCRD.
  19. Damn it! I didnt know we got discount [:'(]
  20. Horses for courses I always say, jus the folks I know who are into firefox act like your subhuman if you use IE. Always going to happen really since I work in IT.
  21. omg someone else uses IE6 or 7... I get slagged by a few people I know for using it, get the usual ear bashing from the firefoxers how IE is crap and MS wont conform to CS and other standards and how your a muppet for using it... I quiet like IE6.. i update with all patches but I cant use IE7 cause of Windows XP issue if you catch my drift [:$]
  22. hmmm would that be a 3.0 boxer engine from a twin turbo Legacy???
  23. hehe it looks like a nice rally slag car []
  24. Correct, you would have to replace front end and some of the front sub assembly. I have looked at the option and its not cheap to say the least. your boarding on selling the car and buying an 03 plate. Only reason I could see to doing it is if you get all the components dirt cheap. but you got respray costs on top and there is a good chance you would need to respray the rest of the car.
  25. Gogsie I touch goats []
