  1. So Peter can spam most posts on here and I put one comment, the first in months btw, and I get the abuse. Aye right jog on!
  2. Looks like a wrx to me not an sti as the advert claims.
  3. I saw that GT2 (T600 POR) in Paisley opposite the RAH a few weeks ago and it looked like he had just picked it up it was so immaculate. Anyone know who owns it?
  4. Nice car mate! Now i know what you were talking about with the injectors. Although i highly suspect they will be 440s as 380s couldnt get anywhere near 350bhp even at higher fuel pressure. Look forward to seeing it in the flesh!
  5. Mate i am totally gutted for you. I was luckier when mine went on fire on the M8, I got lucky when someone passing chucked me a fire extinguisher. Glad everyone was safe and nobody got hurt. I hope you manage to get good money and get decent new mota from it. Just make sure its another white one. Come on the whites!! Take care mate Stuart
  6. At then end of the day no matter what the police do they are going to be scruntinised by the public and looked at in some negative way. The general public's perception of what policing should be and how it is actually done are world's apart. All i will say is that if a stop is needed then it will be done no matter what reason you think in your eyes is right or wrong. AND dont forget the fact that police officers are just as human as the public so yes sometimes they get it wrong. The only difference is they don't have to justifiy stopping a car to the driver just the reason why.
  7. Kenny Brown's in Hillington is a really good place.
  8. You know if the police didn't stop cars (which is in their power btw) then a lot of illegal activity would never be found. It is amazing when you stop a car and it turns into a whole different situation. Also after stopping and checking the details again its amazing what it turns up. You would be surprised how many owners of expensive cars choose not to tax/mot/insure them.
  9. I have always been kind of a sceptic of knock values. I remember back when i had a Knocklink i regularly had it red lighting at KH (as grant will confirm). I then got the Apexi and still when andy set it to light at 50 i still sometimes see 60+ when booting it. Sometimes it is carbon build up on the plugs that burns off then you don't see high values again. The early cars also tend to be more active when it comes to knock. I put it down to either the knock sensor itself or its location. Put it this way, as long as andy mapped it safely you can go out and drive and not worry about looking at the bloody knock value. The problem with gauges is that most people worry too much and keep looking at them and not enjoy the driving. Hope that helps cal Stuart
  10. Love the look of the car now. Not so sure about the illegal number plates!!
  11. http://www.georgelammie.com/ is who did my photos reportage style too.
  12. My god most of that is utter crap. 1. Nope ecu won't be affected 2. Nope they won't burn 3. Nope again It will not cost any money and i can assure you it won't cause any harm. I have been running without one for 5 years now with no issues.
  13. No yours should be red top as it was an sti type ra and not just an ra
  14. Actually thats wrong too. Sti 2's did have a red manifold. Only the ra and wrx didn't.
  15. Sorry both myself and the missus cant make it due to work. Can someone do the re-arranging of people. Cheers
  16. Was a great day. Had loads of fun. Pity my up-pipe blowing with an hour to go cut things a little short but apart from that the car was going like stink and left a few out there standing. The wife had fun too on her first time out in a car on track. Thanks go to those that have helped me with my car (colin and johnny) and to those who have come to support me, drb5, my bro and most of all the wife for bearing with me through the last 5 years of playing about with my car. The time has now come to sell her and as much as dont want to my home situation has changed and i cannot afford to run her. Stuart
  17. yes i got them. tell me what your email is and i will send it on.
  18. Thats cause all you guys with high power cars are crap drivers and are always watching your gauges and not doing what i do....Ignore the gauges and the knock count and just give it some welly. Life is too short and with my luck i will need another engine rebuild soon LOL
  19. The turbo housing has already been rotated as can be seen in the last picture. The outlet on an MD turbo always faces the passenger side of the car so this one is facing the drivers side. Not rotated as in a garrett turbo i think you mean.
  20. well what time did he do?
  21. Do you know if they will mend buckled wheels? And also do you mind me asking how much for the service?
