Ok ill rephrase it . Is there any trackers I should avoid ?
-
What does the panel think about this subject . ive been looking today and there is so many to chose from. I don't need anything really fancy ,I just want be able to find my car if it ever gets nicked. any experiences would be greatly received . I recently realised the foz is worth more in parts and I would really like to keep hold of them .

I got the tools out today gave it a bit of a sand down with 80grit to start then 180grit got the filler out , primed it and then a few dustings of topcoat . Its not a great colour match but an improvement on what was there previously .

After a hard days graft on Monday Mrs Lockheed asked me to move the forester a bit so she could get her car on the drive so I did what she told me . I reversed out into the road and a car was coming up the hill, the car and stopped to let me out as I didn't want to inconvenience this kind driver I rushed the manoeuvre and this was the result.

This is a good thought and I looked about for a good while but understandably they all have the same problem in seats of this age , in varying degrees of course . The search continues for either a very good second hand seat or a decent repair.

This would be excellent , im presuming that it would be X-ray . It would also catch all those on the lap phone fiddlers who think people don't know that their using a phone …….. but you see them all the time , just looking at their groin and not the road.

Can anyone point me in the best direction to with re-upholstering my black 04 STI seats . The bolster on the drivers seat has started to fray but other wise in good order. A wise man told me to ask the guys that are re-furbing my steering wheel …...but they (last week) sent my steering wheel to Subaru dealership up north so it will be delivered two weeks late.

Im glad my exhaust is very quiet , might have to add a bit of exhaust sound through the stereo speakers...…

my supplier too!

I saw your car at coombe ! v nice ,where did you get your brembos painted ? I only ask because ive heard fluorescent is the new red ?
-
I don't want put anyone off using Millers or indeed start an argument but I did hear a few people complaining of additive drop out ,this was at least 2 yrs ago and I think they have changed their Nano line since. I now use Motul 300v only because my engine builder told me to.

Those Brembos look very well in red .?

10/40 buddy ,

Thank you very much , I may have gone too far with my new nuts / £45 from Combe
-
If you want a cheaper option Goodyear asymmetric 3's are great .
-
Cheers Floz good to meet you at "coombe" and Tony … he was pumped from track time . strong work ! I loved it what a great day!
-
So now fitted with new wheel nuts , im not sold on the nuts might be a bit too much ? When the brakes were fitted I noticed there was a band of un painted steel on the bells that the wheel hub did not cover ….. resulted in flash rust !!! Rust wont do for me.
-
I do apologise when you said how is it "fixed" I thought you meant the plastic , not to the car !
-
that's a tall order ive seen staples used to good effect , there inserted hot from memory then ground back then smoothed with filler , the repair remains good for a good period but usually cracks in the same place . are you talking abs plastic ?
-
I plan on doing some braking hopefully not breaking . the foz is a heavy old barge so I thought it deserved some more of my wage packet . I find new parts happiness is only transient , particularly when you look at your remaining bank balance.
-
?Got some new rear brakes in time for jdm coombe

Hi there I found decent tyres are good place to start, pound for pound .
