  1. Anyone any interest
  2. Currently organising a group buy. head over and register on scoobynet.com https://www.scoobynet.com/scoobynet-general-1/1057339-zunsprt-grill-group-buy.html
  3. 4 new mitchlen pilot sport 4 tyres fitter earlier in the week. And today fitted the Perrin radiator shroud and belt cover. Induction kit to be powder coated then also fitted (perrin cai)
  4. Talk to Roger Clark motor sport or Scoobyclinic advise them on budget and current setup and they will give you the best recommendations.
  5. Is the new engine standard or modified? If your seriously considering spending 10k on mods then you could do a complete overall of the suspension. Coilovers, antirollbar bars, replace all drop links and bushings etc. Tein flex Z and miestrr and bc Coilovers all have good recommends. Let's say go all out and spend total 2.5k the other, 7.5k could be useful for forging the engine and might see u push mid to high 400s on the power
  6. It's down to preference oh what you order, So hoses £300, the your probably looking £200 for labour and replacement coolant But priority would be to find the leaking hose and get clip replaced ASAP as if will go without warning Www.mishimoto.co.uk
  7. Perrin Front Strut Brace Was $245 Now recuced to $90 I've already sent an email to get estimates for shipping. Could definitely work out alot cheaper the cheapest in stock in UK are from VIP motorsport at £245 ($324 usd) Any interest?
  8. Smelling under the bonnet get ur nose and eyes up close the burning coolant will be pretty irritating to your eyes. That's what got me and helped me find mine. It was something as simple as a corroded hose clip, randomly on and off for a week I got random amounts of "vapour" once very prominent coming from under the bonnet. By the time my mechanic could look the hose clip completely failed so a £1 broken clip cost me £200(cost of towing, new coolant and labour) Even if small amount is leaking you will have some sort of sign water marks or wetness. Because of this I've order Mishitmoto radiator hoses, ancillaries and also intercooler along with tbolt clips
  9. Contact the DVLA with a legitiment reason and they will give you the registered keepers details https://www.gov.uk/request-information-from-dvla Or ask them to forward your contact information to the registered keeper.
  10. Likewise. Only had mine 8 weeks now, and unfortunately after 2 weeks of ownership, my top radiator clip failed due to coroded clip. So ive ordered Red colour matched Mishimoto radiator hoses, Ancillaries and about to also order the Intercooler hoses. Once received ill also order up a full set of Stainless steel Tbolt clamps so the same issure doesnt reoccur in the future. If can find the cash might also upgrade turbo inlet pipe at same time. I also picked up a perrin cold air intake kit reduced from to £200 and waiting delivery on the red perrin radiator and belt cover. the intake was black so gona pay £30-40 for it to be powder coated to match so will still be a good overall saving
  11. Pretty much similar mods to that of a wrx sti with prodrive pack.
  12. not worth the cost of a replacement if your having other issues as weel. drive it into a wall and call ur insurance and see what they offer you lol
  13. Cam belt is covered so hes probally been refering to the alternator/power steerign belts.
  14. would all depend on the location of the damage.
