stants Posted June 13, 2014 Author Share Posted June 13, 2014 I did the almost the same thing last year had the car 3 days. Lad in front should have gone by the time I'd checked again and assumed he's be off up the road he was still there. Only let off the clutch so minor bump, I was so !Removed! of with myslf I jumped out the car swearing my head off. Poor lad was only 18 just passed test, though I was going to chin him checked cars no damage he was so apologetic too lol. Worst thing was he worked in super market I was en route to. Spent the next mont expecting a solicitors letter :O Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

james26 Posted June 13, 2014 Share Posted June 13, 2014 People are crazy it's not like it would be all burnouts and drifting everyone panics now cos it's so easy to claim against people Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dogconker Posted June 13, 2014 Share Posted June 13, 2014 I did car park meets too, but when I did it I had the smallest engineer there at 2.0l and 200bhp, we never did burnout a or any of that and often locals would come over to look at and talk about the cars. It's different now. Hey, how's about that, I said all that without having to say "when I were a lad . . . .

Gaulson Posted June 13, 2014 Share Posted June 13, 2014 Given her a clean and a spin dry, thought about taking the plastic bits out of the engine bay and spucing them up but running out of daylight. Will give the engine bay a good clean tomorrow if weather holds out :) . Everyone is going away this weekend, my mates, family, you name it. So it's just me and the Subaru... plenty of time to mess around with it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

savage bulldogs Posted June 14, 2014 Share Posted June 14, 2014 Had a failed attempt at fitting my turbo blanket [emoji19] which resulted in me being covered in itchy downpipe heat wrap [emoji39] It's not gonna be a 5 minute fit due to the fmic pipework being in the way . As for lowering fozies with wrx springs I think they make the back end sit a bit lower due to the extra weight ,but they do spacers to even up the ride height .[emoji6] Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gambit Posted June 14, 2014 Share Posted June 14, 2014 Well Rads in working great very easy to replace. I will do a how to guide if I do the Bugeye next :) Bugeyes job for today will be clutch fluid drain down and top up is on the jobs today if I get chance And going back to the local meets I've spoke with a pub he originally said we could use his car park but has gone back on that now and no longer wants it. What annoys me is if the event takes off it will bring money into the pub and as said above I would say people will come and have a look around the cars and pop for a chat with us too.

tom_gr7 Posted June 14, 2014 Share Posted June 14, 2014 Could we not just up turn in a pub car park? As long as we go in a get a few drinks/food we will be patrons and they can't really complain :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JusNoGood Posted June 14, 2014 Share Posted June 14, 2014 Been busy the last week pampering the car... Full service by Dan and John at Surrey Subaru Specialists (highly recommended). This included new rear discs and pads, replace standard centre pipe and back box (pea shooters) with Prodrive WR Sport (wow it sound different. Yesterday fitted sound proofing in boot and behind front speakers. Not really driven the car yet to see if it's made a difference. Today bought a few more cleaning products from Halfrauds 3 for 2. Including a clay kit, keen to give it a go but looks like rain at the moment :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gambit Posted June 14, 2014 Share Posted June 14, 2014 Could we not just up turn in a pub car park? As long as we go in a get a few drinks/food we will be patrons and they can't really complain :) Thats true :D But to be fair I'm that pi$$ed off with it I wouldn't want to spend money there now. I started looking at places nearly a month ago and get so much crap about insurance. I can't help but think thats what made the landlord pull out know it would be on his premisses and his insurance. All I want is something that's convenient to get to for both local towns, has the space and facilities for anyone bringing families and does food and drink. I did think about Manby Airfield but that is all it is an airfield nothing else :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tom_gr7 Posted June 14, 2014 Share Posted June 14, 2014 Just spent the last 3 hours washing and waxing the scooby. Nice and shiny now :) Annoyingly, i do get some weird looks and no one ever says thanks when i move out of their way as they drive past. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaulson Posted June 14, 2014 Share Posted June 14, 2014 Spent most of the day doing a little bit of a clean in the engine bay, will be posting on my project page soon :) Hopefully you will find somewhere Gambit, would be good to do a little meet for club members and tag alongs! Now James on the subject of them females, I thought getting a Subaru (especially a blue one with gold wheels) would liven up the attention but so far owning this beast has given me no extra pleasure besides the boost :P . I'm obviously living in the wrong place, I would be better owning a tractor! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
