looks good apart from the weather!! il be up there tomorrow so should bump into some of you there,whats the arrangements for parking?

p1 for sale on snet with 400hp!!!

id be tempted to stick with the p1 i think,its the scoob i regret not buying before i went newage lol also bit nervous about the fact that the guys done all that to a wrx not an sti

work allowing,which it is just now il put mine on the stand on friday-saturdays a possible. il be at knockers on sunday so il try and catch up with you cruz. did the skye weekend convince Mags then Bobby? look forward to seeing it on track soon!

had my bc's on for about 8 months now,first set awd fitted really cant fault them,especially after john at progrip worked his magic and ive summoned the courage to play with the damping settings. settled on 15 front and 16 rear (counted back from soft) and they worked great on the skye trip both wet and dry-even one notch on damping makes a big difference. the fronts were at 17 and on bumpy b roads the nose would hunt about over bumps and really thump into potholes but at 15 much better. still cant beleive how low yours is at the rear Bobby!!

Imy,i dont think Johns got internet til thursday but hes got quite a bit of video-though the sound may need editing to remove offensive content lol

the new shocks will make a big difference mate,and make sure the geometrys done properly-ive had some well dodgy setups from dealers before... ive a set of prodrive springs i think would fit yours if your interested....

dont think theres many evos with a genuine 900 bhp on 2.0 engines,most will be bored out to 2.2 or 2.4 anyways its not the figures but what the car(and driver) can do - as the fast one in his standard classic ably showed at the weekend keeping up with cars with 100-150 hp more than him

hmm,some mind reading going on here i think....

hi mate,Dales not far wrong- ive an 05 sti that ive had since new and have only just got happy with the handling mine has h brace-connects the bottom of the struts to chasis top strut brace front anti lift kit- increases castor to keep more of the tyre on the ground more of the time bc sports coilover suspension adjustable ride height and damping for me the coilovers and proper setup were the best improvement ive made to the car and i love them,closely followed by the h brace,aurprised by the difference for a cheap 20 minute fit part! if you want a run sometime to see the effect give us a shout cheers Dave

thanks everyone,it wouldnt have been the success it was without all of you,your group spirit and general standard of driving/behaviour. knowing everyone seems happy with the 2 day format gives me lots of scope... of course if anyone else has routes or wants to have a go il be happy to help! at the moment im tempted to suggest another this year if people are up for it and a return to skye next year-chinese anyone? Dale,if we have another disaster like that il happily impale myself on a golden poppadom sliver while riding a donkey

if you can go for an 05 sti,wider track, dccd and variable valve timing on uk cars feel quite different to 04 sti's

hi all,while the skye weekend is still fresh in our minds i thought id ask for any comments in regard to doing it again next year and /or doing another weekend run as ive a few other routes i wouldnt mind trying... any positives, negatives or suggestions welcome on here or by goat- especially whether two days is too long,too short or just right cheers Dave

think theres any chance of doing a group buy on this? get a discount if a load of us sign up at the same time? as im an old bugger i got passd on the old system but my other halfs wanting to do this for towing her ponies about

nice black wrx youve got there mate, we had a great time and a warm welcome everywhere-bar the pauper of india that is. was the lochcarron garage,john captured the truck on film in glorious technicolour,watched it back last night-not sure if hes up to getting stills off but the clips there for the taking. believe me we were close enought to see!!

Cal it was a great weekend but i could be persuaded to do it again next year if theres interest-except no indian this time!!! and can confirm you want to go visit the lochcarron garage hoss,tyre and compensation i think!

that be the same clamp you put in my car Dale....

monkey boy in the back was filming all through that stretch so i have full footage of the guy ploughing past me as i took to the ditch,complete with name and phone number-probably his ugly mug too! jongleurs has the tape and im sure will be more than happy to forward a copy and details hoss

few more the happy couple nice a*** homeward at last!

totally agree Imy,the real highlight for me was how well everyone interacted,not just sticking to people they knew but getting to know new people. there was a really nice spirit about it-and not just the talisker (note to Grant,it DOESNT taste like sheep piss!! donkey,possibly) its a nice feeling when you can call someone by their real name! didnt get round everyone quite as well as i hoped but can associate everyone with a face now,was great to meet a newbie in DJ,who was kind enough to give john a ride after only 5 minutes of meeting -cant wait to see the wagon fully mapped itl be a monster! nice to have a local scoob or 2 popping in to say hi in Broadford (the old dear in her white 08 pulling in,revvin like hell then saying stick with the old ones and clearing off!) and having Wayne lay he founds for the scottish scoobies whisky appreciation society-next rounds on me mate

how many miles to go Dale? dont jump Julie!! anyone seen a scoob? insert your own comment.... lynch mob for monkey boy

just back home and ready to collapse on my bed but wanted to say a huge thank you to all for coming along and making it such a great weekend, meeting old and new faces and old and new roads! special thanks go to Al(scouk) and Jen(scoobygirl) for their help in organising this,couldnt have done it without your help and also to Imy for enduring the bareness of the banana so we could all see it first hand also have to apologise for the disaster that was the indian! although i take some comfort from knowing that its a little harder to find it now... awesome to see Andy's skyline in the flesh too,even if it aint a scoob big congartulations to Jon and Debs on their engagement,you luvky man! too many highs to list so a massive thanks to everyone again,see you next year? o,and dont anyone mention donkeys.....

is this just for scamera vans or does it list speed traps too?? have a particular stretch im interested in....

everyone ordered??

eek!!! thats cutting it fine Paul,hope theres no hiccups! Rich,your just a blinking disaster!! if your stuck theres always a newage with room right,off to check mines starting/running ok now....
