z1000

Well was working @ a garage last week so changed the power steering pump on the scoob but discovered i'm needing 4 new tyres, a couple o strut top mounts and some front brakes in the not 2 distant future plus the exhaust split again on the way home so bought a new one from 2fast2cool, £200 delivered for a 1 piece system that joins the DP. Fitted no bother in 10 mins but oh dear its rather quiet in fact i kept hitting the rev limiter on the way home as i could hardly hear it over wind noise and my tunes . Never mind @ least its a job off the list next is some bodywork !!!!!! You still with dingbro Frank ? And what r u upto ? GTB what you running nowadays ?

Are DS2500's available for front wilwood 6 pots ?

Just thought i'd stick my neb in and say hello. Still have the scoob although her indoors uses it more than me nowadays, kinda lost interest but had her @ the garage fixing power steering this week and am considering tarting the old gal up a bit with a new panel or 2 a bit o filler and a splash o paint. Won't be overnight as works a bit of whatever i get nowadays so funds are tight but seeing as things aint selling for much may as well keep it and have some fun. Hope all the faces old and new are well and not scoobless. Steve

1 question simon..... Do you need to suppy andy with adult nappies when he's mapping ? There wasn't anyone not grinning after last years rr day so im sure you'll be the cause of many sleepless nights and maxed out cc's with all us mortals trying to keep up !

And that means we’re almost certainly talking about a person who breathes through his mouth and has short legs, no forehead and one, possibly lacerated, eye. Think he must of been to a club meeting

Its a m reg uk turbo wagon with an sti engine and box aparantley.

My mates just bought a scoob thats restricted and is wondering how to get it unrestricted ???

What r u like gus ANOTHER scooby @ least no one can ever accuse you of not trying them ALL.

Thinkof the cash u've saved on petrol ! Well done frank @ least u've not got a hefty garage bill.

Hang in there frank you'll get it in the end

First scoob was a 99 wagon and looking back itwasn't a rocket but a few more ponies and decent set up suspension and brakes should see you keeping off most things I upgraded the brakes to grooved and drilled discs with mintex 1155 pads which was a vast improvement but to get a bit more braided lines and dot 5.1 fluid should do the trick. Current car has wilwood 6 pots which are good when warmed up but should really come into there own on track. Suspension wise personally i'd avoid coilovers as there usually far 2 hard for normal road use and i had to remove the ones that came on my Sti before they bounced me into the hedge A good set of Sti stuff should do fine along with uprated drop links and ARB's and strut braces. The man to speak to about a remap and the best options to get more power is Andy forrest in port seton who has put many many smiles on faces round here. Theres so much you can do and be warned it's VERY VERY addictive and expensive Steve

Standard 5 speed sti @ the mo bud, gonna do an oil change and try and no be 2 rough that'll be next years worry

Firstly thanks guys for the kind words and Gordy am glad you were impressed Mods go as follows Andy forrest 20g 550cc injectors Uprated fuel pump Autobahn FMIC NGK PFB7R's Miltek decat DP Full decat exhaust Apexi induction kit ESL live map (bought an apexi power fc but it didnt work ) Haven't been able to give it total stick yet as i don't want 2 spend xmas in a hedge but did have a moment with Andy but he did say go for it Figures were a guesstimate by Andy and didn't get any torque ones but thats a good excuse to attend the next RR day

Well after many problems and much cash i finally made it 2 port seton this afternoon for an esl live map and i can't get my head round how 1 man with a laptop can turn an old banger into an absolute weapon estimated well over 350 probably around 370/380 bhp but who cares al i know is it goes like **** and i'm going 2 spend a lot of time visiting the petrol station and Nice 1 Andy Steve

White, spoilerless and touched by Andyf. Its gotta be good

Whos the daddy ? Lookin :kerstsmiley: as

Looks really good totally different

Ok got it home and on a quick inspection the oil contains the petrol that didn't go out the exhaust and there was a loose intercooler pipe so first thing tomorrow i'll check the injectors and change the oil and take it from there. Would it be possible that running it on the chipped ecu meant that the injectors would run as high as the originals ? i:e 98% as this would surely pile in the fuel and what couldn't go out the exhaust washed down the bores into the petrol ???

No word on getting car back yet but no fuel pressure gauge but i'll check asap steve

Originaly Apexi induction, full decat, uprated pump, NGK 7 plugs, scoobyecu chip to which i've added TD05 20g, autobahn FMIC, 550cc injectors with adaptor kit, nissan 300zx maf and still to add tomorrow apexi power commander and dawes device.

Booked in for a remap tomorrow afternoon and spent the weekend in a mates garage fitting all my bits which had the usual dilemas but tonight tried to bring it home and its chucked between quarter and a half tank out the exhaust in 4/5 miles and wouldn't take throttle. It is now sitting in a layby in the middle of nowhere drained of vital fluids ! I'm still running the original ecu with chip as i thought that would be better to get me home and i'd plug in the apexi when i got to andys so could this be the cause of the problem or have i arsed up putting the injectors in ? Please help as i'm sitting waiting for a mate with a flatbed to bring her home hopefully and would like to know what to do in the morning to get her mobile enough to get to andys ? Steve

How aboot glass eye as thats the only way it would look good through 1 Wonder who will be the first on here to actually buy 1 and own up ?

If there anything like the one im seeing ur in good "hands" At least u get loads of time to fart about online instead o working.

Some adult dypers Dinnae want you making a mess o the seats once you get it all bolted together and going like a train
