  1. << sounds like you were aquaplaneing...... >> Thats what I think. What i found difficult was that it was like i was fighting the 4 wheel drive... it felt like the power was shifting from one wheel to the next. Not good.
  2. Have you ever had your scooby get out of hand? I have recently had a very scary and seroius experince where I completely lost it in the wet. I wasnt doing anything mad and was within speed limits but whilst changing lanes and accelerating I suddenly found that I had a loss of traction followed by pretty violent fish-tailing. It was all very scary and unexpected. My tyres are ok etc and I have been driving scoobys for 3 years now. Ring any bells? Thanks
  3. Was going to go but realised I had agreed to go to centerparcs with my other half on the same weekend. Doh! Is it worth booking for one of the stands? What is it like for beer and food in the grounds? Will go next year.
  4. By chance I had a go with one of these tonight. A friend bought one a few weeks ago. Good fun. I got 0-60 in 4.9 and 60-0 in 119 feet. I of course didnt get a standing qtr time since that would have been illegal
  5. What does everyone think of the official subaru website? Its had a facelift recently but some things like the used car search are the same. Marks out of 10?
  6. Cheers thats what I needed to see. Cant quite decide if I think they look any good and if they may get in the way of driving vision. Thanks
  7. Anybody out there fitted a dual guage door pillar replacement? Thinking of fitting one with a defi boost guage and oil pressure guage. Would like to see some pics of one installed Cheers
  8. dont know yet... Was speaking to a guy re a spec c and he mentioned that he knew where one was up for sale that he could get hold of. I'll let you know.
  9. ok I'm convinced... I'll make the journey and have a look at one. Thanks v much for the advice. Cheers
  10. << << Yeh went to this place to look at a spec c just before I bought my wrx. >> what did you think?? >> Wasnt sure about it because it was so basic... didnt even have electric windows. It was also white with gold alloys and pink decals which made it look a bit hairdresser. Didnt drive it because I wasnt really serious at the time. Would you buy the 202 again? What re you thinking of next? (your going to say the type 25 with NOS arent you)
  11. Yeh went to this place to look at a spec c just before I bought my wrx. PS its the rear wing... got to have the rear wing
  12. Cheers for that. Will look into the 19k car history. What did they cost new? PS have you checked the drive recently... might be yours
  13. wouldnt the aire flow be in the wrong direction. Ie the fast air flow over the bonnet would mean that the aire pressure is lower over the hole so that it would be sucking air out of the engine pulling hot air across the aire filter? Could be talking boll*cks here
  14. Thought it was odd that they didnt use the spec c since they rated that higher than the p1 recently. Still would kick one out of my garage in the morning though.
  15. Hi Few specifics... Do the subaru main dealers have any idea what it is? Can you get parts etc. How powerfull? How much torque? 6 gears or 5? Drove the sti but preferred the low down grunt of the wrx ppp. Have heard of a s202 going for 19000 with low mileage. No idea what a good price will be. Liked the idea of the 202 since it looks to be the spec c but with a few creature comforts though. Going to look at a spec c this week. Thanks
  16. << LOL his driving was perfect and we had a volvo estate cop car scooby snax sandwich. >> well it would be then wouldnt it I have notices that I get more attention from police than I used to in my punto 1.2 sx (it was a real performce beast)
  17. Is that because of his car or his driving style
  18. Hi Im thinking of changing my 03 wrx PPP for either a s202 or a import Spec C. Any advice to offer? Any suprises that youved had with the s202? Thanks
  19. Has anyone seen the news article in the latest copy of auto express. Apparently Subaru plan to fit black boxes in Subaru?s to track whether aftermarket mods have ever been applied to cars even after they have been removed! This is aimed at stopping warranty claims from cars with unofficial mods!
  20. Been thinking about changing my car. Considering either a used s202 an imported Spec C or an 03 Sti PPP. I've looked at an older spec c in the past and it was a bit bare (and white!). Never seen an s202 in the flesh and wonder how they compare to drive vs the new spec c. Any thoughts / advice?
  21. They did me .... 86.4mph in my fiat punto
  22. Bought my 03 wrx a few months ago with the PPP. Was wondering if anybody has done any performance mods to one and what they thought of them?
  23. on a slightly more serious note... is it just me or does everybody on the motorway drive at 90mph these days? Regardless of rain/fog/ drum brakes..
  24. I consider my wrist officially slapped.
