It was 1 of those double take moments lol, no wonder the windows are tinted!!

Just went through to the kitchen to make a cuppa and WTF!!!!

Can't get back in for the car until Thursday nite so no idea what sky high actually means yet, going to service it and get a new panel filter and make sure it gets some shoe before it goes back in, got a set of rear shocks to go on it too, the joys ?

Car failed its MOT today on emissions, seemingly they were sky high, 2002 sti type uk still with the standard exhaust bar a prodrive back box, anyone any suggestions??

What time? I'm dayshift but I'd still like to come along and meet some of you guys

Still a bit gutted, also thinking about just getting it fixed and going from gold to black

It's not too bad, and it just the standard alloys but they were all unmarked, suppose its an excuse to go wheel shopping lol

Well the better half has been using my car for the last 2 weeks as I was waiting on parts coming for hers, all parts came on Saturday and since I was working all weekend today's the day it's getting fixed, alls gone well until 10 minutes ago when I got the dreaded text message " I've just kerbed 1 of your wheels, sorry" I could actually cry....

Excellent thank you very much

Hi folks, got a set of whiteline outrigger bushes to do in the next couple of days, anyone know what way up they go, thick rubber bit facing up or down??

Cheers

Lee

Started getting a very slight but annoying buzz ( which it seems only I can hear) from the heat shield on the up pipe on my bug sti, what's the ramifications of ripping the culprit off if any or I'm I better leaving it on and trying to secure it???

I took my last scooby to pro-grip when he was in bonnybridge, he did a fast road set up after I'd fitted coilovers and changed bushes and totally transformed the car, I'll use him again

Lee

Meguires for me too, buy they're clay bar kit, everything you need plus a wee bottle of cleaner wax

I used the maguires wax on the scooby as it was recommended by my mate who swears by their stuff, put a beautiful deep shine on the car but it only lasted about 3 weeks, the autoglym HD wax lasts for a good couple of months, had to put another layer on the other day, I'll use it until its finished then I'll strip it all back and use autoglym on it

Gold flip through it you can see in this pic of the bonnet

Clay bar, autoglym HD cleanser, autoglym super resin polish then autoglym HD wax, tried other products but always go back to autoglym

Took advantage of the sun this morning and give the better halves Golf a going over, came up good

Cheers

That's awesome Tony, thanks, you can see the difference when they're side by side

Cheers

It sure is, that's the warmer weather starting to arrive as well, pays the bills though, and the time off is awesome

Hot end 85 shop, only been there about a year and a half though

Cheers folks, do you know how much it's dropped, can't be much I don't think?

2002 bugeye, sorry should of said, there was no prodrive certificate with the car when I bought it, it's not a prodrive model

Had the car jacked up for the first time today to do the radiator and noticed the coil springs had prodrive stamped on them and were red, just wondered if that was the standard sti spring, or an upgrade

Cheers

Cheers folks, I work in the glassworks
