  3. cheers for the replies guys graeme
  4. Big Navs chavvy saxo! all it needs is a motorsport sticker eh?!!
  5. Looking for some advice. The nearest shell petrol station to me is glasgow airport or erskine, both of which are about a 25 mile drive. So to get optimax, i either have to use a quarter tank to get there and back or plan all my activities around trips to that neck of the woods. Now, there are loads of BP stations around my bit, would using BP ultimate with octane booster be an equall for optimax? Am i right in saying ultimate is 97RON? This has probably been asked loads of times, but any advice would be great cheers pedals
  6. Always give a wave to the scoobies down my way (Greenock), usually always get a wave back
  7. Bloody hell, that is one quick fiesta!! 650bhp!!!! Just of interest, anyone know what kind of bike that was that smoked the lambo? Kawasaki ZXR?
  8. Excellent picture there Fee. Is quantum-capture Ross (vibrio) from corsasport.co.uk?? pedals
  9. looks like a vectra with a chopped off nose imo not to my taste anyway!
  10. Taken from the FAQ section of the website, may be of some use?: 3.14 Piston Slap It seems a small percentage of the MY98 cars have had problems with Piston Slap after a period of 10,000 to 20,000 miles has been covered. This manifests itself as a knocking noise which is much more pronounced when the engine is cold. This should not be confused with a ticking/tappet type noise which is common on all Impreza engines , but a distinct knocking noise which is most noticed between 1,500 and 2,000 rpm. In the UK, Subaru have been resolving the problems by fitting an a completely new short engine (block, crank, pistons) , and this cures the problem completely. Some cars are apparently much worse than others, with very lightly driven cars being just as susceptible as those driven hard! All Subaru dealers should be aware of this problem, and offer to resolve (free of charge under warranty) if the problem exists. If your dealer denies all knowledge, then go to another dealer who may be more sympathetic to your cause. The work takes between 2 to 3 days to perform, and as well as running it in again, you most get your ownership document(s) updated with the new engine number. If the problem occurs on a normally aspirated engine, then a simple piston replacement can be used, instead of a whole new block.
