  1. I have 18" PFF7's fitted to my STi8.... can I fit 235 tyres to these or will they rub? I need to fill out my wheel arches as the wheelks look so small with the chargespeed kit......
  2. Leave them off mate... you got the version 2 side skirts? They sit very low anyway and thought they looked more aggresive []
  3. I would do mate for some strange reason only known to the cyber gods my SIDC doesn't have a file attachement button.......
  4. Have to agree really pleased with my chargespeed kit...... they look good.
  5. Hope it all works out for you mate.... sometimes you can get lucky, I did. But the poice really pi$$ me off about this stuff..... they never even took statements or turned up to get descriptions of the guys who nicked mine [:@]
  6. All the best for the future Jon & Dee..... I have the up most respect for people who put their money where their mouth is and follow a dream. Some great mags were produced with excellent articles and like it has already been said you guys put so much effort into following the Scooby scene around the country. Just wished it had worked out for you, the Scooby community will no longer have it's own dedicated magazine which will be a shame! Hope people get their money back, but I have dealt with creditors and liquidators a lot of the past three years and I wouldn't hold your breath. Banks and suppliers will be first in line with very little left for the paying customer base..... always works out that way.
  7. YES...... mate cars can be cursed maybe we should start a club.......[]
  8. Great set of pics... looked a good day...
  9. Anybody got any specs or performance figures?
  10. I prefer the smooth look and free from body hair.... I mean stickers. But each to their own.[]
  11. Yeah I have seen a black one and a red one and have to say I was impressed. And the noise from the V8 (the black one had a miltek exhaust system if I remember correctly) was awesome. You can get an 18 month old 6.0 VXR for about £22k.... and an extra 80bhp from worktec for approx £4k.... so thats 490bhp for £26-27k.... And I brough a Scoob.... so as you can tell depreciation never really worried me too much! Got a test drive booked at the local Vauxhall dealers this week and a drive in a Noble M12 GTO-R organised. I will let you guys know what I think. I have to say Scoob ownership has been somewhat of a traumatic experience for me and just lost the stomach for it. But I have built a fantastic car, no expense spared and unless I go down the Evo route probably not going to get a better handling car. But most of my miles are on the motorway so I can trade off some handling for a bit of straight line speed.
  12. Can't really go anywhere with a Scoob now..... unless I go down the road of building an all out track car... mine is pumping in the region of 450bhp. Spent an absolute fortune on it.... Somebody will get a fantastic car when I sell it. Dont fancy a skyline would rather go down the Evo route.... But the Monaro looks a good powerfull motorway cruiser... has road presence!
  13. Errrr... Noble [] Where are they based Pete? Was thinking of a M12 GTO-3R.......
  14. Cheers Pete.... dont suppose he has had a Noble M12 as well...... that my second car on the short list []
  15. Lmao.... has he had a scoob [] Well I have looked at the Worktec packages so I dont think speed will be an issue.... any idea what the build quality is like?
  16. Decided that I am going to change the scoob and really fancy a Monaro... Anyone on here got one? Any bad press floating around about them.... and what are the main differences between the 5.7 and 6.0 litre models (besides the obvious[]) Seen a real nice grey one but it is the 5.7 and I know I will want to mod it for more power so want to get the right base model []
  17. Ok..... reply then..... I obviously don't [] I have some cash burning a hole in my pocket.... can't think of anything better to spend it on at the moment!!
  18. So do you Dan but you havent replied...
  19. Playing it last night.... great game with friends and the kids...... and a few bottles of wine thrown into the mix []
  20. New clutch shouldn't slip unless it has been set up incorrectly..... smell a bit maybe but not slip!
  21. OMG did you just mention the "J" word..... Glad its back and totaly unmolested, very lucky indeed... if they had trashed it in any way i would have rather never seen it again! Thanks to Paul at Zen not an easy situation for him and good to have someone who was as pissed off about the car as I was!! My car has been as much heartache for him as it has me.... And how about this for Irony..... My car gets nicked by two theiving f*cking C*ck stains and gets returned to me undamaged..... It has taken me eight months to rectify my car after Custom Jon had it....... I wonder, who out of these people I would like to locate first [] On a more serious note.... my tracker had just expired by a month (and they wouldnt help me!) and due to some damage inflicted by Jon my blackjax is in Valet mode... well they wouldnt have got 10 seconds up the road if the blackjax was working.... and not to sure on the implications of the tracker on my insurance. So don't want to sound like your grandma but you know what I am saying, even if like me you were going to sort when it came back from the garage get them working and use them. On the downside it would appear they knew what they were after and had singled my car out and travelled some distance to get it. The missus is not too happy to have it parked out the front of the house any more []
  22. Thanks guys and gals.... lets just say today has been emotional...
