  4. Hi folks, found the root of my overheating problem, a busted radiator. Chris at East Linton says this is a bit of a common fault with earlier Imprezas as the rad gets older the plastic end pieces are bad for going... Anyhoo, have any of you had dealings with any of the evilbay radiator sellers? Can get one for about £90 or there about, compared to about £300 from Subaru Or anyone know anywhere else? I know GordyQ is on the case too! Thanks mate! [] Cheers John
  5. Hi folks Looking for some help Had a day off work yesterday so went up to Edinburgh. On the way back home the car decided to dump its water on the top Soutra hill. Phoned the AA, after an hour or so wait, the Garage from Lauder arrived, the bloke couldnt see where it was coming from, so filled up with new water and drove the 5 or so miles the the garage in Lauder. By the time we got there it was peeing out again. Nowhere obvious where it was coming out from so he jacked up the car and looked underneath, theres a little rubber 90degree bend, just next to the oil filter, was coming out there. Let the car cool down again and found a bend off a scrap car that fit. Put it on and all seemed OK, let it warm up and no leaks . So I headed for home again. About 6 miles from Kelso the temp gauge started to rise again so pulled in and looked under the bonnet, steam leaking from the top radiator hose, just where it connects to the radiator. Let the car cool down again. Put the 5 litres I had with me in and got going again. 4 miles from home and it started heating again. Pulled in and called my dad to come with more water. Let it cool a bit, filled up, and got home. Its a MY94 WRX import. A stab in the dark but I'd guess the head gasket is fookt, or seriously on its way out. Theres no smoke coming from the exhaust. But I'd say the system is pressurising for it to kill 2 hoses. Called Dom Buckley this morning, but they cant get me in for at least 2 weeks. Any one know of any other Subaru specialists in the Borders/Lothians/Edinburgh area that I could go to? Im so sick, thats 2 cars in 2 days AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA Any help appreciated John []
  6. Those in the collisions are probably hitting those people in front who slam the anchors on and creep past at 30mph
  7. Dunno if any of you have seen this or not, but its a link to the cameras on the Edinburgh city bypass, M8, Forth Road Bridge and Glasgow areas just click on the wee black boxes to view the camera, its not live, and is only a still image, but a wee bit sacry none the less http://www.bbc.co.uk/scotland/whereilive/t...?name=craighall Give us a wave if you pass []

  15. Does anyone know if anyone makes a guage pod to fit the non facelift classic? I can feel some mods coming along....
  16. Great pics again Col, wish i coulda made it up, but other things on this weekend... I remember seeing an F1 car going round Knockhill about 10 years ago, and it was an awsome sight then, the Ferrari mustve been amazing. Anyone whos never been to a GP go and see it, makes watching it on tv cr*p afterwards
  17. Another vote for the Blitz, nice sound without being overly loud
  18. Seems like only yesterday i was watching it all unfold on tv, a sad day indeed He was a true talent and sadly missed, i doubt any of todays computer controlled car drivers could get anywhere near him.
