  1. arnold clark werent anything but reasonable with me either but clearly arent scooby experts. halleys, nobles all the way for me
  2. surely the capped thingy thats on the intercooler as standard sends the built up pressure back into the turbo and i quicker to respond again? where as with the noise machine, the pressure gets thrown out into the atmosphere and when you open the throttle again you have to wait for it to come back? does that make sense. no idea about the running lean chinanigans though
  3. cheeky cheeky thomohawk its all relative. buy a cheaper older valve or a newer more expensive one. salesmanship as you say, alls fair, however im not giving it the full rhubarb crumble on the price without being asked.
  4. Andy I'll try and keep it short. I bought a black wrx from a garage in the east end of glasgow?? I bought it based on the fact that it MUST come with subaru uk warranty. or no deal. this was a dutch car. sure enough, 5 months in the big-end went! i tried to trade it in to arnold clark. the garage said, wheres the warranty book? you tell me. wheres the 1000 mile service? you tell me. I adopted a ruthless attitude with them until they managed to register it through subaru uk. Never heard anything else after that. they must have sorted out between them. But really- 1. get it registered uk (they can do it) 2. speak to a lawyer. cheaper potentially than a 3k 4k 5k bill for some engine rebuild.................... 3. track down arnold himself, hes always about and confront him Dont know what else to suggest, bt thats why now im mr warranty. only prodrive in my new sti! Good luck andy
  5. no actually im not. Bare bum boxing in old underground carparks, driving rapido and fighting bears in Moscow actually scare me less than that spinning ball. Call me mad as a box of grasshoppers, but i dont like it for some reason.
  6. Gayle I dont know why but that new disco ball youve got as you icon scares me!!!! really can you change it back or something?
  7. top banana. I knew you were sharp mr S. I could sense it as soon as i saw you at that roundabout last night
  8. if you had known the truth?.......................................................... "YOU CANT HANDLE THE TRUTH" name that one
  9. thats me just back from the trip last night. I headed back after leaving you swiggi and just kept going past shettleston....................... Crazy Im sure last night somewhere between helensborogh and arracher i got G FORCE SICKNESS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I had to double back to faslane and ask the navy to put me in a decompression chamber for half an hour!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Truly superb route complemented with suberb driving by JK,Matt and Swigg Thats the most fun ive ever had since they took the tag off my ankle
  10. samual ive been trying to sell a HKS sqv i got last week for a few days now. I think blitz or HKS are the business but want keep my car prodrive stylie, so if you want this one thats only had a few days use then PM me asap. cheers chris
  11. very good young man for such innovative thinking............take yesterday off
  12. thats a poor show. see you next time
  13. how much did they skin you per wheel mate?
  14. theres an idea!! I might have to do that.
  15. I posted the other day to sell my HKS valve. I bought it and a few days later decided that i wanted to become mister warranty. I advertised it for £250 which for a brand new valve should be a good price. Its boxed and sitting in my boot waiting to find any new shape impreza. Top of the range bit of kit for anyone that knows of someone or doesnt have one themselves? If anyone has any ideas failing that of what to do with it please let me know. I could do with the help
  16. think what she'll be like in 12 months when we're going the next day? shes still got a lot of gumballing banter to go till then.........
  17. looks good!! you reckon it can get a shift on?
  18. i'll model one for you!! just to let folk see how good it could look on them
  19. the subaru jackets ate quite expensive. So a fleece would be excellent for everyone to wear at Knockhill on a nice summers day, and maybe a bit cheaper?
  20. i doubt it would have been any of us that did it. I think folk from outside come onto the forum just to have look. probably just some steamer. But as you say jambo, you went out your way and some lizard does that. mindless clowns.
  21. if thats what other people fancied obviously. maybe swiggi could get a jumpsuit
  22. Gayle Would it be possible to get polo shirts for us all? is that an option SIDC stylie?
