The_Bronze Posted January 14, 2014 Share Posted January 14, 2014 Hi all, I've recently just acquired my second UK turbo after owning my first about 5 or 6 years ago, which I had to sell to get a mortgage deposit together! bad times! But finally I'm back in the land of Subaru and once more enjoying the boxer rumble! I'll post some pics of my old car and the new one asap!

The_Bronze Posted January 14, 2014 Author Share Posted January 14, 2014 Gambit, Jay, Thanks chaps! seems like a great forum, very friendly and knowledgeable! :) Mephiston2k, I'm in Stoke on Trent, yay for Stoke! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mephiston2k Posted January 14, 2014 Share Posted January 14, 2014 :) I'm from Lichfield/Tamworth originally so wondered if you were local. Have you tried West Mids Imprezas? Another good bunch to join up with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Bronze Posted January 14, 2014 Author Share Posted January 14, 2014 Ahh thanks bud! I haven't but I will join up in that case, nice to find some local enthusiasts too :) And some fairly ropey photos of my car: And one frosty morning showing the newly fitted KC Daylighter lower lamp covers. Not to everyone's taste but they make me smile and after whapping a hole through a lense previously and knowing they're not all that cheap to replace they're functional too! :) It's a completely standard UK turbo, save for the Prodrive backbox and earlier Nardi gearknob. It does want a few little things sorting but I'll just enjoy doing the little jobs as I get chance :) I'll give the car a wash and get some better quality pics up. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mephiston2k Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 Love the fog light covers, gotta stand out somehow! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gambit Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 Very nice mate. not sure about the knowledgeable part but friendly enough ;) No we do have some top members can't fault any of them :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miggs Posted January 17, 2014 Share Posted January 17, 2014 welcome aboard fella, looks really tidy that, great to see an almost standard one still exists too, love the lamp covers :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Bronze Posted January 18, 2014 Author Share Posted January 18, 2014 Mephiston, Gambit, Miggs, Thanks for the positive comments, fellas! Actually I thought I might get slated for the light covers! I did see a set of PIAA covers but they're so serious! I think the KC covers are just a little comical without being totally daft! Ahh, throwbacks to seeing various Tamiya models in the (Kays?) catalogues years ago and wishing and wanting, all the buggies seemed to have yellow KC 'smiley' light covers :) Frog, Grasshopper 1 etc! I did think about sticking a small Tamiya twin star sticker at the top of the rear window but not really sure on that one, oh well! And again, such a friendly website, makes a change! I recently signed up to PH and well, it's not quite so friendly, but never mind :) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gambit Posted January 18, 2014 Share Posted January 18, 2014 No slagging people's car on here mate :) And the last time I remember seeing smiles on a car was on a done up XR2 was all in black with a monster energy green with the same colour smiles on the spotties. God that was many years ago now I remember I always wanted that car :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay762 Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 Yup friendly bunch on here, very much about encouraging individuals as opposed to slating peoples views that dont agree with the norm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mephiston2k Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 To go with the norm would require 'normal' people... Take one look at Gambit and you'll see this place isn't normal lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gambit Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 It's not my fault I'm highly addicted to anything with the word s*x in it. I would give my middle b@ll@ck just to be normal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
