<< Looking really sweet Gus ! thanks for taking those piccies for us
Anymore reports on how she handles now ? Do your flaps hit the dec now
Cheers
Cal >>
Giving it time to bed in mate! Adjusted the flaps to the high setting (as advised!) prior to getting the springs on. Definately making a difference so far. But getting the Geometry done by Progrip @ the end of the week.
Gus
<< Any benefits with the Tein stuff???
I got my Prodive springs supplied and fitted by A F Nobles in Penicuik for £328. This included the full Prodrive geometry settings and check-up. The TEIN ones seem quite expensive if they do not include the geometry too... >>
Not that I'm aware of mate. Cost was £319 all in including the Geometry set up (Prodrive!) Still to be done by Progrip. I was advised to go for the Tein over the Prodrive by a few people on the Forum (Central meeting run!) Including a Subaru Mechanic!!! I was gonna go for the Prodrive ones originally too mate!!!!
Gus
This one cos its the only picture I have of my soob at the moment!
Can someone set as an image and not a link please! Evening classes right enough Dougster
<< How much for springs and fitting if you dont mind me asking ?
Cal, made a wee mistake with price last night it was £272 all in and not £302. forgot I left a bigger deposit (so to speak!)
Gus
<< Smashing Gus.... get sum pics posted up so we can see what it looks like >>
I'll take some over the weekend m8. looks miles better even if I say so myself!!!!
Gus
<< How much of a drop then guys ?.......I like the sounds of these if they dont suffer from the dreaded Eibach knock >>
35mm front and 25mm rear. Havent heard any knocks and I'm always listening oot fur them "wots that noise"!!!!
Gus
Chris,
Cheers fur de warnin mate! It does make some difference. My route from Bonnybridge to home takes in some wild roads (well the back roads do!!!!)
"Progrip" thats the name he mentioned. Ma heids like a sieve
Will it make a lot of difference with the Prodrive settings?
If yip I'll go with that!
Thanks again!
Gus
got the suspension done @ Hypertech today! Car now sits much lower (looks right!) and is much firmer in the bends and going round n round n round the roundabouts
Thanks to those (Gordon fae Halleys, Jamie and Chris) for the info on Tein and Hypertech!
Who's best for adjusting the Tracking/geometery? Duncan mentioned Prodrive settings????
Now for the next mods (If only I could sell that motorbike!!!)
Gus
<< no i havent seen it what you on about? >>
Chris, there is a flyer in with True Grip this month from "XPRESS SCOOBY GRAPHICS" with an "STI" decal in full size for the sides. Looks pretty cool. Worth a look if you have a copy. They may well have a website but only mention an e-mail address: xpressscoobygraphics@hotmail.com

McFlash, I had an M3 Evo 4 years ago. Very impressive car but, as many have said they are p*sh in the wet! Stick with the scoobies m8 best car for the Scottish climate Wet! Wet! Wet! and thats nowt to do with Marti Pellow
Stephen, posted on that earlier today too! I like you thought it looked pretty cool and unique. £140 supplied and fitted was it not!?! Seems pretty decent to me. Not sure if Chris has seen the flier!?! Chris?
gus
Light blue over WR blue looks different (and good!) I'd go with that Chris! But obviously you'll need the Gold/polished split rim alloys to go with them mate
