  1. Nyles old motor And Nick's gonna be pissed that your taking all the credit for his track car I'll be back on track in a few months to see how well it goes.... Just like the good old days, Tiger v White RA Daz
  2. Good Luck Zeo & Mrs Zeo, Sounds like quite an adventure and I am sure you with both love every minute. Daz
  3. Kev, neither of mine were MOT'd, just of a good standard and safe. As said above, lightness is the key, loose EVERYTHING thats not essential and then loose some more ... If you need any help just give me a shout, happy to help with some spannering / unbolting Daz
  4. Hotel already booked. will come across and see you there
  5. Think he loads up a "generic base" one he has written then tweaks it to get the maximum from each individual car, certainly lots of time spent on the rollers doing tweaks till he & the customer are happy. No complaints here anyway Daz
  6. 3rd 'ed Star Peformane all the way. had them do last 3 cars for me, Audi S4 and 2 diesels, Quality work every time. Cheers Daz
  7. Oh I remember 1st time my Scoob was on a rolling road, was scared stiff that it might blow up and the noise it made during the run, then you came along with the RA and blew everyone away. IIRC it had some trouble staying on the rollers too Daz
  8. LOL, thats got to be the laziest thing I have ever heard Well you are going to need to take the Navara now to recover the Scoob If you need a hand I am in Abz today
  9. Ooo youv'e broken Adams Car !! Better break out the Skyline Crank Position Sensor or MAF gets my vote, but I would have though MAF would just reduce power rather than none at all. Does it have the single coil pack on the top of the engine? Maybe thats on its way out - intermittant sparking. Daz
  10. Very Nice - retro cool I used to have a big poster of that car in my Garage many years ago before I got my Scoob. Can't wait to see it in the flesh. Daz
  11. Well picked mine up on Sunday. All remapped and ready to go. Not had a chance to drive it much, took it to the airport yesterday and it awaits my return Initial impressions - much smoother engine than the 1.9, bit noisier, too early to say on MPG but bound to be pretty good Really needs a centre armrest though - Away to buy its first mod I will have to investigate the torque in the wet on my return Cal how do you know the boost pressure now?
  12. Nice. Who is doing the Map? Mines is at Star Performance. What sort of MPG you getting just now? Oh, and my speed kicks now come from this:-
  13. Well like Cal I have also binned high performance in favour of high MPG for a while. Have just bought this:- although it is getting a cheeky wee remap before I collect it. 180bhp / 300+ lb/ft should suffice nicely with the 40+ mpg Cal, I will wave if I see you
  14. Nice one Kev. Well done You have been doing the job for a while now, so title is deserved. Daz
  15. Absolutely stunned. My most heartfelt condolances to the families. He was the man that, like many others have said, got me into the world of Subarus. In my eyes the best WRC driver ever. Rest in Peace Colin Darren & CJ
  16. Yep, I was there too. I think I saw you right at the end Fai, behind the Skylines - waiting for your young lad at the loos? I was the tall blond guy with the sunburnt face & SIDC fleece It was a great day and only got back at 5pm ish yesterday too Once I sort out my pics I will post up some too Daz
  17. Red Grill = Cool Think it needs a small lip spoiler though and loose the other STI logo on the foglight cover to even up the front end. All IMO of course [][] Daz
  18. So induction noise is fine, as long as exhaust is quiet enough. Ok thats sounds achievable [] Daz
  19. LOL, I dont think you are going to convince Adam that the c20xe engine is as reliable as a 1.9 8V GTI engine. I also had a c20let engine for many years, 3 turbos & 1 total rebuild later I finally got saw the light and got a Scoob. Daz
  20. Vote for a 205GTI here too [] Just upgrade the suspension, get slicks, cage, and 4 branch manifold and you are away. great handling little cars and no worries about expensive breakages. Oh & btw I had a Scoob for 3 years too so can compare both. You can have a great little track car for about 1.5 to 2K easily. Fee & Adam and I had a few good track days this year. Daz
  21. Better not be on the same time as the Irvine & Coulthard thing [] especially if Denise is on it too [] Daz
  22. So with your method of fitment, that means all the glass will have to come out too then LOL []
  23. Not gonna be back out till next year now.!![:'(][:'(] Are you going to take the carpet out? It looks like it may weigh a fair bit.
  24. Nice going Russ, So you are even easier for me to come and bother you now !! [] Congrats Wee man Daz[]
