  1. A.S performance sell trick up pipes for about £160 or haywood and Scott sell a slip jointed up pipe which works well and eases fitment (due to the slip joint ). Avoid up pipes with "flexi's " in and toyo sports versions as they loose power If it's not broke .....upgrade it 😊
  2. Sorry I should have updated this ,as I was quite miffed at the time of the "rant" and don't like to bad mouth business .Especially smaller ones as I run my own and know how difficult it is to earn a good rep , let alone keep it once you've struggled to earn it . It came directly from cobra so has their lifetime warranty but I bought it from a ebay company (piranha uk) that sells genuine cobra systems at discount prices. Think it works out about £300 cheaper for the track day system due to not having the extra labour costs to polish the pipework. So basically the only difference is brushed stainless steel pipework with mirror polished boxes for £406 delivered.(instead of £700 + ) a genuine mix up at cobra ment I had a new centre section and second hand back box delivered by mistake ( hence the rant ) . End results were excellent customer service from the ebay company (piranha uk ) and cobra. Cobra fabricated me a new rear section Thursday and it was on my door step Saturday. I'm well chuffed with the system, sporty boxer sound but no droning on the carriage way . There's a few pics on my build thread but I haven't got round to getting a vid on there yet . If it's not broke .....upgrade it 😊
  3. Classic or newage 4 pots and 5 × 100 pcd discs will bolt straight on a early classic . Although I'd suggest fitting braided lines as well and you'd have to check if the et of your allys will go over them . If it's not broke .....upgrade it 😊
  4. I've got hands like shovels so bought a decent 1/4 drive socket set and some rachet spanners as soon as I opened the bonnet of my first scoob lol . If it's not broke .....upgrade it 😊
  5. The classics only have camber bolts on the front strutts , the rears are fixed (so I assume that newage are the same) The fronts should have 1 camber bolt each side at the top . You have to release both bolts and turn the top bolt to adjust the camber . For the rears I bought elbaich camber bolts (about £30) but you can also use oe subaru front camber bolts in the rear if you prefer. If it's not broke .....upgrade it 😊
  6. I have a avcr booklet which has a few pinouts listed but only the ones needed to fit it . What are you trying to find the pinouts for ? As i might have them but If it's the full list "google" is probably the best option . If it's not broke .....upgrade it 😊
  7. What year / version is it ? As I've got a few pics of the engine loom attached to a v3/v4 inlet manifold. Search for the thread for " classic ecu self code check function " in the tech section on here . As and codes should be stored and you can read them yourself in a sort if morse code flashing of the eml light [emoji6] If it's not broke .....upgrade it 😊
  8. Hi n welcome. I haven't got any front shocks but I've got 4 elbaich springs and rear shocks with group n top mounts in the for sale section [emoji6] If it's not broke .....upgrade it 😊
  9. Dunno if it's a just pay and turn up or whether you have to book a definite time . I do like too get mine on a dyno every year to make sure she's running right . Admittedly I do tend to end up getting the map tweeked on the dyno fairly often as I keep fooking about with it lol If it's not broke .....upgrade it 😊
  10. Think it's a dyno day but you have to pre book , Damien Bradley with the mk1 time attack legacy posted it up on f.b . Give surrey rolling road a bell or like their Facebook page and have a word with em [emoji6] If it's not broke .....upgrade it 😊
  11. Dunno who maps there since Simon roe past away or how local they are to you but surrey rolling road is doing power runs for £40 this coming Saturday [emoji6] If it's not broke .....upgrade it 😊
  12. Unfortunately Ghost is pretty much spot on, as there not worth a great deal with a fubar'd engine. You might get a bit more if the rear arches are rust free but as a rough guide (without knowing if it's got any expensive mods) I'd imagine it would only sell for about £600 . If it's not broke .....upgrade it 😊
  13. Generally most engine builders would only recommend a 0.5 mm over bore. Otherwise you risk undermining the sleeves, especially on a open deck block , so if it's got a 1mm score in the bore I'd say you'd need a new block . So stants has probably recommended the best options above imo . If it's not broke .....upgrade it 😊
  14. Check the wear is the same on the inside and outer faces of the discs (same thickness ) . Seeing as it does it while rolling, as well as when applying the brakes, it could be that one of the pistons isn't returning properly and constantly causing a pad to make contact with the face of a disc. If it's not broke .....upgrade it 😊
  15. I used wheel worxs in Colchester they charged me £220. To pop the tyres off , sort a little curbing, paint in polar black ,refit and balance the tyres . If it's not broke .....upgrade it 😊
  16. I buy millers nano drive, Mahle oil filter and sump plug washers from Tim @ opie twice a year . Always impressed with his juggling of discount offer codes or giving me free delivery to give me the best possible price [emoji41] If it's not broke .....upgrade it 😊
  17. Took my "retro" v1 sti to a local retro car meet so thought I'd post a few pics my daughter took between the downpours I wasn't the only scoob there was a uk turbo ,sti hatch and a wrx bug dotted about If it's not broke .....upgrade it 😊
  18. I do know people who have got the fiberglass stuff but front lips do tend to take a bit of abuse (stone chips and low kurbs) compared to boot spoilers and side skirts . My hta p1 rep is just over 4 yrs old and my scoobs about 40 mm lower than a uk turbo's standard set up . So it's seen a few kurbs, stone chips and occasionally scuffs on the inlaws sloping driveway [emoji19] I had this pic done last year and it doesn't really look any different to when I first fitted it [emoji41] If it's not broke .....upgrade it 😊
  19. Yeah I bought a p1 replica front lip from hta superb fitment and I've hit a few low kurbs but due to being plastic (rather than fibre glass ) it's still in 1 piece [emoji41] If it's not broke .....upgrade it 😊
  20. V1 & v2 (92 to early 96) have the preface bonnet .V3 to v6 (late 96 to 00 ) have the facelift bonnet and the bonnet scoops and vents are not interchangeable. You can "facelift " the v1 & v2 scoobs fairly easily by fitting headlights, grill and bonnet off a v3 onwards scoob . My v1 has been facelifted but I'm going back to preface next spring when I get a respray . If it's not broke .....upgrade it 😊
  21. Have a look on "ht autos " or "abw" websites, I'm not sure if they do the type your after but they both sell quality stuff that fits well
  22. Just join that face book group or pm him , as I know nothing about the seller or box and don't really want to get too involved tbh . Cos I don't wanna end up getting stuck in the middle if something goes wrong with the transaction or goods . If it's not broke .....upgrade it 😊
  23. I dunno you'd have to Google it bud . But it's a classic jdm so will have a short ratio and it's got a matching diff included [emoji6] If it's not broke .....upgrade it 😊
  24. Dunno if the link will work if your not a member but it was £180 posted for box n diff . https://m.facebook.com/groups/542594519165308?ref=bookmarks Here's a screen shot And 1 off the group name Never bought anything off him but he's always got stuff for sale [emoji6] If it's not broke .....upgrade it 😊
  25. New you wouldn't last long without boost n burble [emoji23] I spotted a v2 sti box n diff on a f.b site [emoji6] If it's not broke .....upgrade it 😊
