majik_thighs Posted October 7, 2014 Posted October 7, 2014 They both have the same unit so it should be slightly fiddly but very doable Tom.

Dogconker Posted October 8, 2014 Posted October 8, 2014 My baby is home now, all snug on the drive after her injuries after being attacked by a much older ford Ka. Off to Manchester tomorrow in her, first time for 2 weeks. Still, at least my car has got one more Ka off the road.[emoji38] Sent from my iphone using Tapatalk
lukev6tdi Posted October 8, 2014 Posted October 8, 2014 Havnt been on for a while but ive fitted cone filter and hard pipe sti carbon strut brace a legacy 3.0 wheels.
savage bulldogs Posted October 8, 2014 Posted October 8, 2014 Took it for it's mot [emoji16] Passed with ease [emoji3] Did get a few new noises on the way back from the mot station [emoji15] 1 of them is because I modded fmic pipework so had to fit a dump valve which isn't too loud but gives of quite loud "chatter " It needs a remap as it's over fueling due to the bigger injectors but that coupled with the over run "pops n bangs" that were originally mapped in for my brv [emoji48] made it a interesting maiden voyage [emoji5]
stants Posted October 9, 2014 Author Posted October 9, 2014 Great news mate :-D Orderd 5L of millers fully synth see if it helps with the slap over winter. Just deciding of the black filters are worth the premuim over the blue ones
Gaulson Posted October 9, 2014 Posted October 9, 2014 Chased an Audi A3 2ltr Diesel this morning, don't think it was standard as it had some on the straights. I say chased... it was wet, didn't want to try and take him. I got it on cam so will have a watch later and see if there's anything worth showing. So, anyone been sucked off yet? By a tornado I mean ;)
Dogconker Posted October 9, 2014 Posted October 9, 2014 Yep, had a small tornado come past my house yesterday. Nice and calm then all hell broke loose then calm again. Thought I was going mad to start with. Got about 8 secs of vid of it, will try to put up Sent from my iphone using Tapatalk 1
Dogconker Posted October 9, 2014 Posted October 9, 2014 as promised this the very short clip of the tornado that passed through stafford on the 8th October Sorry the clip is so short but was having trouble with the phone and it was through in less than a minute, weather was calm just before and after this so I reckon it was a weak tornado.
majik_thighs Posted October 9, 2014 Posted October 9, 2014 !Removed! hell that`s a nice calm summers day up here!
Dogconker Posted October 10, 2014 Posted October 10, 2014 It was actually sucking the water up off adjacent roofs. Not quite as bad as the one that hit Alfreton that took some blokes roof off his house Sent from my iphone using Tapatalk
majik_thighs Posted October 10, 2014 Posted October 10, 2014 Drove for the 1st time after my op.............despite not driving for almost 2 weeks I had forgotten nothing!! Had stitches out today and i`ve not felt this pain-free in a lot of months :) Originally they said it would be staples and I have to say they did feel like the staples they use in the manufacture of garden furniture. But to my surprise they were sutures. It now looks like I have a Cornish pasty tattoo on my back.
stants Posted October 10, 2014 Author Posted October 10, 2014 Oil turned up, filter hasn't [emoji20] will have to wait till monday to do change
Mr-Henson Posted October 10, 2014 Posted October 10, 2014 Filled it up with vpower and cruising to a couple of pubs with racing little hopefulls in there stolen Saxo vxrs ;)
savage bulldogs Posted October 10, 2014 Posted October 10, 2014 Let the wife drive the scoob back from asdas as she hasn't drove it since the reshell .... Should have told her about the extra noises dump valve , chatter and pops n bangs on over run [emoji23] The look on her face was quality [emoji33] [emoji19] I told her to take it easy until it's been remapped but apparently the bloke in the beemer behind us needed to be "shown" [emoji1] 1
majik_thighs Posted October 11, 2014 Posted October 11, 2014 I don`t get the same attention as Imprezza drivers cos the OB looks more or less like any other 4 door estate apart from the twin trumpets at the back. But on the odd occasion my 9 year old self appears behind the wheel to show the Range Rovers, Q7s etc that my black sheep has a wolfier side.

tom_gr7 Posted October 11, 2014 Posted October 11, 2014 I've just been looking at getting a diesel outback, legacy or a foz. I have a 60mile commute to work and back, so a diesel would probably make sense. Unfortunately, it looked like it would cost me best part of 10k for a decent one with low mileage.
mfnick Posted October 11, 2014 Posted October 11, 2014 Gave her a quick wash and started to wax but then rained so just quickly did the front, roof and wing as they get the most hammer. Then fitted my new STi badge to my modified grill (Subaru Emblem removed, filled and painted) and fitted the grill plus went and filled up so I can just set straight off in morning. All ready for Japshow Finale now :) Pics of the STi badge. Old and crusty New and shiney Pics of it on the car will follow tomorrow :)
david1972 Posted October 11, 2014 Posted October 11, 2014 What age are you looking for Tom? You could always stick with the petrol models, as you'd need to run a diesel for many years and miles to make the extra initial outlay worthwhile. Plus no DPF or boxer diesel worries. Have you thought about a 3 litre legacy or outback, then converting to lpg? You may get the best of both worlds then...lower running costs plus the petrol engines proven reliability [emoji106] Sent from my iphone using Tapatalk 1
