  1. Has anyone got the contact details for the guinness book of world records. as I now have the fastest scooby....Well according to the kenwood GPS system It clocked my top speed at.... you better sit down. 218Mph. Not bad for just under 300Bhp. They bugatti veyron's are well over priced and over rated. Here the picture from the kenwood. Anyone want to buy a scooby.
  2. As most know I like my toys, even more if it's pimp my ride style. So my install got ripped out and replaced with this That bass box never gave enough cubic feet for the subs so got replaced. I have some finishing work to do but the full thing is up and running so well happy. You should be able to hear me before you see me..
  3. In the boot of new age scooby just below the rear(shelf) brake light is a small flat section with 2 m8 captive bolt holes... what is it for ????. Answers on a postcard please... or just add it here... Ed
  4. I'm hoping someone will have a good quailty copy of "Check out my subaru" by the Dirty Sanchez Crew. I can find on you tube but it's a cack copy. The original is no longer at www.lpc24.com nor is the site. Hoping someone has it. Cheers Ed.
  5. And there was me thinking no-one had noticed this stuff.
  6. Thanks for all the coments still need the name of a good body shop/repairer, did some checking on the dept of transport website http://www.dft.gov.uk/pgr/roads/tpm/tal/tr...g4117?version=1 "Humps must not be constructed on any bridge or other structure such as a subway, inside a tunnel, or within 25m of such a structure or tunnel. The reason for these restrictions is the risk of structural damage caused by vehicle impact, or increases in impact loading. " "Traffic signs are required to warn of the presence of a road hump of series of humps. They may be accompanied by plates indicating the distance over which the humps extend, or the distance to the first hump. It should be noted that traffic signs to Diagram 557.1 must be illuminated during the hours of darkness. To improve the conspicuity of road humps two triangular road markings are required. These vary in size according to whether the hump has a round or a flat top. Edge of carriageway markings are specified for both tapered and full-width humps." Will be taking time off work tomorrow to chase this.
  7. Had a really bad day today. It involves a speed hump and a front splitter/spoiler This is the problem they resurfaced the carpark but then put a dip down then the ramp up with a speed hump at the start of it. This is another car going down the dip then up the ramp. Lots of people have hit it and some poor sod is now leaking oil. You may want to turn away now. I have contacted the Cumbernauld town center management and told them I will be claiming under their public liabilty insurance as they have not put up any warning signs or speed restriction signs before the speed humps so have failed in their duty of care to the general public. The town center staff who I spoke to at the time (to get the town center management telephone number) says this happens all the time. So they already know it's a problem. Just in case anyone thinks I was going to fast I was doing less than 10mph with a cracking witness "a retired traffic officer". So does anyone know a very good bodyshop.
  8. Yep the one in Cumbernauld is 99Ron, filled up on Sunday morning and had to fill up again on Sunday night, car ran like a dream. brilliant price also even better with the 5p off. Ed.
  9. Still alive and kicking, but my job is giving me very little free time, also the car is in the process of getting the new ice fitted. Thanks for asking.
  10. If you had a spare (missus dosn't know about) £1500. Ps. Gumball spotted ... well I think it was him at adsa robroyston roundabout. Ed
  11. That's the hawkeye shape one, if it is, it's only a standard car with a gas conversion, I saw it at dumbarton halford and noticed it had two pot brakes and the extra filling point for the LPG. nicly done anyway.
  12. That's weird then as the current system only weights about 40Kg and the car dropped by over 20mm at the back. This was check by measuring from the centre of the hub to the arch on the rear wheels compare to a standard wrx300 and the drop was over 20mm. Might need to get Subaru to check the back struts out then.
  13. Due to the new sound system about to be fitted into my boot, over 85Kg worth. the back end will/going to drop down about 30-50mm (I hope it's not more of a drop). Now do I 1. Fit lowering springs to the front to match the drop or 2. Fit uprated struts to the back to carry the extra weight, if so which ones would be recommended. Answers on a postcard please to the normal address... or just reply here. Ed
  14. Guilty as charged officer. Have yours started to fade yet. just got the price in for the next set in 3year police grade reflective. over £700 all in... had to sit down and compose myself. Hence shopping at asda..every little penny counts NOW. Ed
