Well the times come in the year for the car to scream for some lovin aka money spent on it.
So far I recon it needs a set of front brake pads and discs, full set of of tyres and a service, anyone got any ideas for those parts. At an extreme idea I was pondering a second hand set of Front Brembos and getting a set of STi rims with at least some rubber on them to last me to spring/summer.
I managed to get a hold of a WR Sport Prodrive backbox from a UK300 bugeye thats been around a few of the members in Scotland. So thats waiting to compliment the lack of cats from the turbo back [] Woho! no more quiet STi backbox []
Anyone rate heat wrapping the centre decat pipe back? Got the downpipe wrapped anyway.
Also was thinking about suspension and maybe what mods can be done in that department, any recommendations?
This should be the cars 40k service and I have master mechanic Chris Alan doing the service as he seems to know whats hes doing and its booked in for 1st of December. So I have a little time to get everything together for him to sort it all.
Anyone tell me when the clutch is likely to go? I have a little bit of slipage anyway if the power is helded at a certain about when coming away from a junction but nothing major and its never lost power when booting it. Any suggestions, new clutchs - what are the options???
Any help and advice welcome []
