The 1144s were on fire after 20 minutes this afternoon.

I also found out the RB320s have an adjustable rear anti roll bar.

new brakes, bar adjusted and diff set to manual (down 2) makes it stick to the road like glue

that clio or whatever tf it is could be the worst car i have ever seen.

some of us worry about catching our splitter on the ground, whilst this bam loves it. must have too much cash

get the sneaky photos up !!

Aside from being highly offensive to him and the rest of us, I havent met a single SIDC member who would laugh at a fellow impreza enthusiasts car going bang. Im sure skyline enthusiasts are the same and your just having a period tantrum for some reason.

Dont have the photo but when i first got my 3rd scoob recently, all black and sleek, a citroen something pulled up alongside me at braehead with two yahoo wullies in it. the car had a sticker on the back that said ''JDM AS F*CK''.

they tore off into the sunset and had quite clearly smoked me.

hahahahahahaha hahahah ahahahahh ahahahaha I WANT TO SEE MORE OF THESE CLASSICS

I know that. 1144 were 100quid. PF were 110.

Dunc your right, i am gonna keep it standard actually.Its hard but the thought of keeping it as it was built is appealing strangely.

Ill keep it the way it is

your post yesterday went up whilst i was out of the house and I made a decision to get something I new worked. If i have issues with them, i will get the PF next time. thanks for the help :icon_rendeer:

Porsche turbo badge? jesus !!! they shouldnt have been allowed on the road to begin with !

I think the stikers being small and subtle made it look cleaner somehow. Or maybe definition is a better word for it.

Today I spotted a car and just had to put the window down and take a sneaky photo of it.

Here we have...........a 1998 Vauxhall Tigra with..............a BMW Mpower badge

please post up any photos from opportunistic finds like this little gem

Thanks for all the helpd and opinions. much appreciated.

i am going to get the mintex 1144s put in tomorrow and have the fluid changed at greersport.

Next comes the suspension and handling.

was it you?

I see godspeed do kits rather than pads only? maybe mistaken.

best price i can find so far is £160 delivered in a day from camskill, for front and rear 1144s

i think the mintex 1144 or 1155 is a good shout.

EBC have let me down twice now. not for me

All i need to do now if find a cheap online purchase for front and rears and ill swap them out in the driveway

anyone know where? mail order?

nah it started within the first 2 miles of road.

thanks for all the feedback. much appreciated.

soundie made a good point. could the fluid be cooked?

pads were put on the car not long before the engine rebuild, so they have done 1500miles or so and performed like shat el arab from the off.

hmmmmmmm

i think from memory the 1144s did squeek and i liked it cos they worked so well aside from this.

maybe i should get the fluid checked? this possible?

ps- mullac, i dont really understand your grammer there lol

Today i took the deathstar out for its first run somewhere.

the twisties followed long straights and as you can imagine i needed stopping power in a hurry, often.

the pedal felt almost jammed in place a lot of the time with nothing happening.

no ability to stop fast at all

infact, at one point i almost had to stand on them to make them stop.

so....

having used mintex 1144, yellow stuff abc, red stuff abc and standard newage pads, what advice and where can i get some good pads for the RB320 please?

ill probably change the brake fluid at the same time.

tomorrow ideally

LOL

Since 2008 I must have burnt about 15k in negative equity over different cars

its part of the journey and if i could straight swap a car i dont owe finance on, for a new Impreza, I would probably do it.

The worst that can happen? you dont like it and sell it on

noticed today that shell are doing the ''spend £5 and get 5p off every litre'' thingy.

everydays a promo day then

''buy your fags you buy anyway and get your fuel for cheaper''

sorted

Mapping, low mileage, your high mileage, mods, DCCD, blah aside.............

Whats the book price for a low milage 2005 JDM?

Whats the book price for a higher milage 2006 Audi?

Why dont you sell yours for a ford fiesta/focus baby carrier + buy a classic off pistonheads?

I know what i would do- just swap it and enjoy the new car lol

hahahahahahahahahaaaaa

Chris calls home to be told by his mother he looks like "an erse"

Andy was deep in thought remembering the blue pete show that demonstrated over elaborate use of tape and a first field dressing to double mag his AK, when he saw the looters moving the couch on the back of their jingly wagon, and remembered his mum had made up his room for his return.

Haa, you noticed me in that pic then

Mate I just looked along the line until there was a dip in altitude. Colombo and or ironside werent needed for this task
