Got sent these photos from a work mate they were taken on the A1, just north of Newcastle, on monday morning Along the side of the transporter it said something like "The New Impreza, It Sticks To The Road"

A sad day indeed, I never got the chance to meet him but i will always remember the first time i saw him driving that dark blue Impreza flat out, giving it his all, only the way Colin could, it made a lasting impression A fan of his ever since, and now the proud owner of a dark blue Impreza My heart goes out to his family, and the families of the others who died He will live on in our memories Rest in Peace Colin

Bump Anyone?

Does anyone know if the rear bumper for a classic shape wagon is the same as for a classic sedan? Cheers John

Sorry to slightly hi-jack this thread, but you couldnt point out where the heater control valve is hidden there behind the dash could you (or anyone else)? My heater is either cold, or when i turn it on a couple of notches, full heat and i would like a bit of a clue as to where to start looking before i end up with a dash looking like that too!! Thanks John

Oh... Ok heres the pics

I saw this on an Aussie modeling web site, thaught it was pretty cool, certainly going for realism! http://www.hsgalleries.com/gallery04/subaruwrc2001jw_1.htm

perfect! Thank you []

... will i be needing to do an oil change on a classic? Cheers John

Yup same here, drivers window is scratched a lot, damn annoying..

1 coilpack with LAGRE crack So I'd guess thats been the problem! Getting sorted out with one tonight Thanks for your help John

OK thanks for that. i'll have a look tomorrow and see whats there... All the best John

Bloody hell!! Glad that youre OK

Hi folks A technical question for you... I have an MY95 WRX import At low revs, about 2000 - 3000 it seems to splutter a bit, before clearing up and seems OK at higher revs It feels similar to the overboost kicking in at higher revs, a bit of a dip, then runs ok, does this maybe 2 or 3 times then clears up Happens more when the car is cold, but sometimes happens when warmed up too Done an ECU fault code check this afternoon, and all is clear there Any thaughts? Idle valve? Coil pack? Plugs? Leads? Ive done a search here but cant find any joy, hope someone can help? Thanks John

Avoid them like the plague My mate who used to have a body shop down in Bradford could tell you a few stories about them.... All theyre really interested in is folk to buy their cars on finance The cars are generally pretty rough You'll find a lot better else where

Bad news indeed, i hope he gets well soon. One report i read was that he was going for the UK jetcar speed record....

Great pics as always Col, well done []

[] Congrats Ian! Are you coming down to Kelso on the 24th? Only an hour south of Edinburgh for anyone thats interested

Well.. If I had the time and facilities to do it yeh, but Just started a new job, so no chance of time, adn I cant rely on gettign a lift there every day for ages either, so kinda had to bite the bullet. Garage time soon mounts up... []

Well done Col, well deserved

Sadly it was a fatality A woman motorcyclist lost control of her bike on some loose gravel and went into the path of an oncoming lorry Unfortunatly the lorry couldnt stop To make matters worse her policeman husband was first on the scene of the accident My dad knows her parents, they are devastated.
