Waved at three classics in the Falkirk area - see them often in the morning. NONE waved back - just a stare.

Shame

C&C Custom Stainless in Hillington - the business...

As mentioned above.

Sounds great - wish I could have been there but hey!

The runs are always memorable - hopefully none will be memorable for the wrong reasons, and it is good to see people showing a 'degree' of common sense - just a degree I add as otherwise the runs would be like the childrens taxi day outing

Brian

I'd quite like a nice set of Volvo running lights on mine Instead of driving with my sidelights on all the time...

Any benefits with the Tein stuff???

I got my Prodive springs supplied and fitted by A F Nobles in Penicuik for £328. This included the full Prodrive geometry settings and check-up. The TEIN ones seem quite expensive if they do not include the geometry too...

I also like my Brdigestone RE-050's - GZ type for a 2003 onwards WRX (there were 16 versions of this RE-050 listed for different car models). Toughened sidewall.

Other good tyres are the relatively new technology B F Goodrich G-Force Profiler (NOT Profiler G - they are terrible) - designed and tested for the WRX. Very good.

Brian

All those pictures look AMAZING!

Brian

Nice looking 1.6

Under the Erskine bridge???

Whose is the white classic - I am sure I have asked you that before...

I still wave. However, many people don't. I think a lo of people do not know about this, or the SIDC. Also, many people are buying older cars because they are cheap, the boy racers have them and also the WRX can be bought as a fleet car option too.

A shame.

Brian

<< sorry ment to add that hamilton >>

What about "The Garage" in Wishaw - that'd be close for you.

Oh dear!

Nah - it was caused by an "over-active" track erarer - "let me find everything I class as junk and then corrupt the drive image of it whilst wiping it" - ARGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH - very annoying but they are certainly gone - spoken to IT guys in work.

Thanks Spooks...get those valves warmed up!

Brian

Lol - no surprise there then - th industrial estate has seen a bit of action alright!

Cameron needs the excitement with his sh*tty 'new' speed machine - a 1.6 Vectra!!!

Brian

Hi all,

Lost all my photo's, video clips and stuff I have collected over my years of Impreza ownership - very annoyed...damn PC.

Does anyone have any pictures of my car at events, me with my car, video clips of my car moving, or any old school video clips from SIDC/ Scoobynet days gone by (e.g. R.R. days etc?). I certainly had quite a few other people had taken.

Much appreciated if you do and I can get a copy of them.

Brian

<< Yeh Brian C&C it is. I hear good things about them. I have it booked in for the end of the month, I'll post before and after pics.

They are superb and will do you a good job - make sure you mention me so they'll add my 10% commission

Seiously, the best in the business, alongside the likes of Wullie @ Meercat.

Brian

A sports CAT is certainly my plan - quite a few companies developing good one with little power loss over a decat. C&C also build them, as will Meercat I am sure.

Brian

Alan,

That avatar picture of your car looks amazing - totally show worthy - have you ever "showed" the car. It looks as good in the flesh as in the magazines.

Brian

I have Pagid RS 4.2.1 with standard discs and they seem to be holding out very well, although more expensive - also try Ferrodo DS2500's.

Unless you are killing your car everywhere, your pads should last longer. Try not to use the brakes like the old, shall remain nameless, 11000 posts of crap, on Scoobynet one who has managed at least 60,000 miles on his first set, not even half worn, runs on standard unleaded, hates modifications...some may knwo who I mean - starts an argument inside a paper bag.

Try phonign Alyn @ AS Performance for a good price on the Pagids - he is VERY helpful and loads of people use him.

I wish I hadn't spent so much on a Hayward & Scott system as I could have had a better fitting stainless system made for me in Glasgow, for much less. I have bought both the H&S classic backbox and the jap style back box not to mention center, down and up pipes. Both backboxes sit so low they look bloody awfull. I have the classic style fitted and it sits about 5" too low, it looks like it's going to fall off! And before anyone asks, yes it is properly fitted. I'm getting it modified by someone at the end of the month I'll post before and after pics and contact details if they do a good job.

I assume C&C Custom Stainless in Hillington??? They are the boys

Brian.

Lost mine during a computer death but not sure which of these I like best But 99% sure my favourite is the first one (pre mudflaps etc).

Brian

Oh yes! Until tomorrow night and we'll get it through a lovely valve amp (for sale BTW ).

Is this Sunday night, leaving at 5:30PM (as above) or should it be Sunday morning leaving at 7:30AM?????

Well done guys for organising it - I am 90% sure I won't be there but roll up!!! everyone else.

Brian

Time to get it to the dealer Stephen, but you may need to leave it in overnight for them to check it when fully cold.

Good luck!

Brian

Yes - Port Seton. Details on his website:
