i used to have mintex ctech discs on my old impreza and they were certainly an improvement over the standard setup without being grumbly. you should keep an eye out or check breakers yards for someone selling the brembo discs and calipers off a new age sti like mine or craig macs, a good cost effective upgrade. after all they manage to keep saving my ass on our runs []

sounds a good idea, think il offer to wash all the neighbours cars too!

yep another vote for aplan, they were almost half the price that gary moulson quoted me, and understood about mods and ppp. charming young lass i spoke to, think her name was claire? seemed to really know what she was talking about. Dale, you trying for a surprise unveiling of a new beast on the 20th?

thats goood news! i had the same thing with an old car, but had to get the engine stripped and the valves reground [:'(] it cost a lot more to fix than youve been quoted so go for it, just make sure its done right and there shoulddnt be a problem mine drove 100% straight after it was sorted so that shouldnt be a problem.hope your back on the road soon

i cant believe youd be travelling at speeds to need one of these dale, you should be a fine law abiding citizen like me []

getting back on topic for a second, i take it from the first post that you go offshore in two weeks blackisler? any idea what date your back and wel try and fit a meet in with it. god knows we badly need some more guys from inverness area, and its always good to meet a new face/bonnet [] ps, al those words strike fear into my heart,im afraid i was born with short arms and deep pockets []

i see this is turning into an im up later/drunker than you competition! hopefully thisand 3 bottles of vino make me the winner []

you either have insomnia or alcoholism steve! im the latter []!

jeez dont you lot ever sleep! [] looks like the 20th it is unless someone has a prefered date? usual meeting place then a run and grub along the way,only this time with everyone knowing where were going and some contact no.s exchanged. i think butchers boy did 3 or 4 laps of the castle car park last time!

all hail king of the lucky barstewards! so whats your excuse for lagging at the back now steve [] thats seriously good news though, did he sort out the check light for you? you realise if you put it on high boost you might be able to keep dales shed in sight!

slow down? na,you just need to uprate your suspension and brakes [] but seriously its a good idea steve, like i said before the idea is to travel at a pace your happy with and i reckon a few others would be quite happy to hang back a wee bit. it shouldnt make a difference if we all know where were going and have contact no.s as we seem to be setting a pattern of stopping to reform halfway through anyway. maybe we should make it 3 groups though, medium , fast and dale! hes going to think im picking on him soon [] so let us know what you other guys think,who else would like to hang back a bit? you ready for your trip to mr f on friday steve? maybe thatl change your mind about going slower !

thanks for pointing that out dougie, the car park we were in was for a tourist attraction which had been closed for several hours and we were with the cars at all times. they were only put in the bays for the photos then moved. my mum had to use these bays so im aware of not blocking them if theres even a slight chance of someone who needs them being there dave

yeah, our runs are all about having fun and making progress in a reasonably safe manner as roads and conditions apply AND also at a pace your happy with,we dont want any of our happy band ending up in an incident. like dale said just because some of us drive like our tails on fire doesnt mean we all have to, although that would probably make dales runs solo most of the time []

cool,ive got a blue new age sti,you cant miss it its the one with gold wheels []

cracking photos scoobydoom although the last ones a bit colourist isnt it! [] amazed they came out so well considering the special weather laid on for us. anyone checked the background to see if nessie made an appearance? im sure she would have heard us all! has anyone actually seen under the bonnet of dales 'shed' ? i think hes stringing us along, my moneys on a ex wrc engine or gerbils on ecstasy [] i didnt hear that about our eatery steve, but hey ho its always a few less to crap on the motor [] top marks to daz, euan and doom for coming along and keeping up and to butchers boy for coming out despite finishing work at 7 and staring again at 4! same again at the start of september?

welcome! were just starting to get things moving up here, just had our second meet last night but wel have another one in 3 or 4 weeks,keep your eyes on the events section so you can join in the fun and frolics. what colours your car? im in beauly but working over by rosemarkie just now

yep, you think theyre still cowering in fear in case he comes back? jeez it didnt take you long to get back! great night,good crack and i went into tesco on the way home and got 5 jam doughnuts for 29p! what more can you ask for!

cheers to everyone for coming out to play tonight, another evening of fun, mayhem and me getting lost! nice to see some more new faces,hope we didnt scare you off! il stick up some pics when i get a minute. special awards to the fastone for his unbelievable pace in the shed and to steve for revving the tits off his car beside the camper van full of sleeping tourists! []

hi there,have you tried glenburgie subaru? have heard mixed stories about them but thier the only subaru people near to you. your car looks great by the way,saw you at tescos in inverness last night i was in the blue sti9. were having a meet there tomorrow night at 7 and there might be someone there who could help if you can make it along.

back up for any last minute visitors

we meet in the car park next to the cinema out by tescos, its a shame you cant make it but if its not out of your way id swing past after your work as a few of us might still be about/have come back. failing that keep an eye out we should be doing it again

this is up in the events but i thought id stick a reminder up here as not everyone looks in there and its only a week away. hope to see everyone from last time and as many new faces that can be dragged along/stumble across us [] weve got an idea for a route thatl take in a nice little country pub and some cracking roads,so dont miss out!

cool wel see you then, bring a full tank of fuel and expect to use it! []

welcome,you must be a contender for the most northerly member online! as dale said weve just started what will hopefully be regular meets and runs in inverness and were encouraging anyone and everyone to put in an appearance, though it is a bit of a trek for you! next meets on the 16th of august, details are in the events bit cheers dave

bout a week and a half to two for mine,your just wanting to make sure youve got the stickers on the beast for the 16th! guess theres no getting rid of you now! []
