Just a thought. I know a lot of you guys are driving your cars to work, meetings, going to pay respects etc. Would it be nice if there was something you could do to show we are mourning the loss of the great man. How about a simple black ribbon tied round your wing mirror. Its half way up the line of the car...half mast sort of thing. Its not in your face and its not expensive. Im sure most folk will be able to get a hold of something to make into the display of respect. Might be a silly idea, feel free to to come up with something else. Was just a thought. Something like this but tied in a knot round the stalk of the mirror obviously

We will never ever see another like him. A "friend" for over twenty years and an inspiration in many ways. In his words, "we are here for a good time, not a long time" I just wish he had been here for a good while longer. Lets never forget him or his son Johnny and the other two friends that have been lost in this tragedy. As I have said already, thanks for the memories Colin.

Words are not possible. Thoughts are with Family and close friends. As Colin used to say "we are here for a good time, not a long time" We should all take his advice and live for today, the way he did. Thanks for the memories Colin.

?? Scott, Jings. You got shot down there matey You should have posted a vid of you driving through the town with your dump valve going "woosh" every ten seconds. Its probably more acceptable Play it safe and just cover your car in "rally" stickers and post a piccy. Normaly works a treat.......for some reason

The sensor is on the gearbox, the plug that connects the sensor to the loom should be located on top of the bell housing, under the intercooler.Try checking there before you go under the car to pull the sensor out. Also try a reset to clear the code. Good luck

Just spreading the word. Our local bobby and family friend was round a couple of nights ago while on the beat to inform us that the thevin' scum are on the go in our kneck of the woods again. A friend from the next village along the road had his P1 stolen last week and it was abandoned only a few miles later. Its not clear why it was dumped. However. Our previous neighbour had his new L200 pickup taken and it has yet to be found. We have been advised to be extra vidulant . To be fair, there is nowt you can do apart from lock the doors on the cars and house and keep the keys away from the letter box line of sight!! Our area (Dunblane to Perth)is reciving extra patrols to try and prevent further incidents. It seems they are targeting 4x4's up here and apparenty Subarus too. It has been said that it is a team from Glasgow that are operating these thefts, not that it makes much odds's who it is. So, it was just a wee reminder to keep on top of these bu66ers and put them of nabing your hard earned toys. Hide the keys and close the windows, buy a security light , etc. Cheers

Cheers Ally I was looking for an e mail contact as Im bobin' round in the tub just now and the Sat phones are poor due to us being on the move. I can just call them when I am back on the firm stuff again if I can't get a addy for them. Thanks for your help []

Any one got Colin or Bill's e mail address at Greer sport please?? Thanks

A Mc's laps with the commentator in the car were good. Especially the wee donuts at the end [6]

Do all P1's have the trackers active on them or do they need to be paid each year? Perhaps its a stolen one thats not got the tracker activated. The thevin scum might be watching it to see if it is going to be recovered by the Police. If its not touched for a few weeks they will assume its not and then proceed to break it or sell it on etc. I would call the local boys in Blue

Mark. So, just to clarify.....your posting up just to rub it in!!! Were all stuck at home with breezy 5 deg winds while your tanning your a55 on the soft powdery beaches and knocking back the cocktails!! The nice girls at the office are sending me too New zealand for a wee break on the Rocky 2.Its all expences paid and I even get a few pounds in the bank account if Im a good boy[] Hope you enjoy the rest of your break anyway. Cant beat the Caribbean for a relaxing holiday. Lazy days man, lazy days. Enjoy[D]

The bollox No daft stickers needed to let folk know what it is!! This is the closest thing to the real deal thats out there. Well done

Edited due to Double Double post for some reason

Remember that the cage bumps up the insurance premium. Makes it hard to get in and out the car. The dash has to be cut There is still welding on the car required to fabricate mounts on the floor and also plating is required on the rear arches to give the strength. You will loose the use of the rear seats due to the diagonal bar The cage will need powder coated or painted Go for it []

glad your not my accountant HI SCOOB 4+2+1+2=9 sorry couldn't help myself Point taken [] Look on the bright side. A spare 1K to get her serviced and insured then !!!

Will get my coat [:|]

4K spent on an average STI RA 2K spent on suspension and brakes 1K spent on breathing and fuel. 2K spent on a good map ie. MoTec Hey presto, 10K gone. Or buy an STI 5/6 if you can find one. Either way, 10K spent [6]

All these posts and the second post said it all ![:|]

You have a re circulating Dump valve. Its factory fit. Leave it as it is. Fit an after market "Dump to Atmosphere" valve and you run the chance of causing engine damage. Just leave it be.

If you can live with the gearing then thats sound. Just the lack of electrics, aircon, and sound deadnin' to think about too. Just do it. You wont regret it. Push for an STI though

Nice home page I think. Glad that the Forum pages still have the great layout they always had. I dont see any reason why we cant visit all the Impreza Forums that are available. Give a little and take a little from all of them.

Its now called MVM and is nothing what so ever to do with Sports car services. All that was bought was the buildings. New owner, new cars and staff.

Will do my best to get the dash striped out of the car before I go away Craig. Got a few other parts needed off it anyway, will just need to juggle jobs [:S] Will call you as soon as its out tomorrow.

Not a bad job to do. Just check there hasn't been any damage to the drop link as well. If its just been a low speed impact then I would think there will be no damage to the rest of the car. Most likely that you will find out when you come to fit the new arm if there is any more damage. You will need wheel alignment and camber checked out after you fit it too.

Subarus have Symmetrical AWD systems. To simplify, its down to the engine being In Line and allowing the drive shafts to be equal lengths, prop running down the middle of the car, etc. Cut the car down the middle and she would be "symmetrical" so to speak.
