  1. You should keep the revs down until the oil warms up, not just the water temp! The temp guage on the dash is only the water temperature and heats up quite quickly, the oil takes much longer to heat up and you're engine is not protected until the oil is fully up to temp! Fit an oil temp guage and keep the revs below 3k until you get some movement on the guage, then keep below 4k until fully up to temperature. Oil pressure guage is also useful to see how viscous the oil is - when cold, the pressure stays high when you change gear, the warmer the oil is, the more the pressure will drop between gear changes. Without guages to help, typical warm up times are around 15 minutes in the winter and 10 minutes in the summer.
  2. BT connection charge is less than that, so threaten them with going back to BT unless they drop the call out charge!
  3. Excellent result for Chris [Y] Maybe this year he will finally start to shine! Looking forward to the new car in Mexico, then we can really see where Subaru are! Does anyone know if the new car will be the all new Impreza or is it just a revision! They way they are talking about it, sounds like it should be something big!
  4. Me = Safety critical avionics software consultant! My creative abilities are about on a par with the bloke that designed the bug-eye impreza [][]
  5. why did I buy a scooby? Simple: Colin McRae, 1994 Rally GB!!! Would I rather polish it or drive it? Drive it! Every Time! Besides, the dirtier it is, the more it reminds me of why I bought the car []
  6. Evo X concept was a fantastic looking car, but somehow they've managed to tone down the design and it now looks awfull. If we hadn't have seen the concept, then maybe I would think this car looks nice, but now it just looks all wrong!
  7. Don't think you can! But do you really need to? If you want more detail, in the day view, you can right click on the time column and select a different scale e.g. 15 minutes, then the working day will fill more of the screen!
  8. Say hello from the South Germany Civvies as well [Y][] We were just saying at the weekend he's gone quiet since moving back home!
  9. Is the forces regional organisation Germany exclusive to forces personnel, or can this be opened to any (Civvy) SIDC members in Germany? Would be nice to be included although I wouldn't want to be the regional organiser myself!
  10. As I understand it, if they have a promotion displayed in the window or in store they have to honour it. If they refuse to, you should report them to trading standards!
  11. I found an easier way to get colours back [] And other font controls etc. 1. edit your profile by clicking on the "Signed in as <username>" in the top right hand corner 2. Select the "Site Options" tab! 3. Select "Enhanced" for the Content Editor option 4. Click "Save Changes" Next time you post/reply you will have extra controls on the editor []
  12. Can enyone explain what these options actually do? They make no sense to me [:S] Enable Ink Enable DisplayName Display in members list Enable Post Mouse-Over Popup Enable Collapsing Panels Show Help Tips in Control Panel Items per-Page in Control Panel grids
  13. Norton filters all the adds out for me, so really not a problem [] Try installing some add filtering software and the ad's will dissapear, but the club still gets some advertising revenue!
  14. Wow! Couple of days away and everything's changed! Seems to now work with IE7 [Y] although no font selection now??? Still had problems logging on with Norton enabled, had to disable norton to log on, but once logged on it all seems to work fine []
  15. That's got to be up for the joke of the year award! Brilliant [][Y]
  16. [] Are you sure you don't want to change your mind and poo youself laughing [] Very funny joke []
  17. That's actually so close to the truth, I don't really think you can class it as a joke or in any way humourous... despite the fact that I'm ROFLMAO []
  18. Hey Mark, going good thanks! Sorry I forgot your names, too many names to remember from Rally DE and its not my strong point! Better a faces, although not as good as I thought... or so it seems [*-)] So am I the only one that saw the Mark and Lin lookalikes, complete with Subaru gear, at the start of the RoC Nations Cup! Someone please tell me I'm not going mad and they really were there and looked like Mark and Lin! [:$]
  19. LOL, then it was their twins! [] There was a very similar looking couple wearing Subaru gear, could have sworn it was them! OMG markie has a twin [] There's only two possibilities, 1. Both Markie and Lin have twins who are also married and were at the RoC on Saturday or 2. I was wrong and it was someone else!!! I think '1' is the more likely option []
  20. LOL, then it was their twins! [] There was a very similar looking couple wearing Subaru gear, could have sworn it was them!
  21. Agree. Or an eye for an eye - pour petrol into their 'vents' and light it! LOL, but only after putting some Christmas presents in their 'boot'!
