  1. Bit late but would like to welcome Tom and Steve to the Moderator's team :D
  2. Mines due at the end of the month still think it's all !Removed! myself :D just giving money away for the sake of it :)
  3. Hi Lee sorry about the late reply very unlike us here to do that or at least not acknowledge the post :) The rev's going up could be a well worn clutch slipping. Does it have a dump valve on ? Possible your car's engine doesn't like the dump valve :)
  4. Ohhh its on its way. Cold enough here to snow but no sign of it at the moment. Mind you it can hold off until Tuesday I've got to go to Sunderland. Don't fancy it in the snow.
  5. We've all been there mate I had a 1.6 escort and was always wanting gti or a cosworth. By about 26 had the bugeye and loved it still have it now. Bearing in mind was cheaper then on insurance wasn't anywhere how hard it is now for new drivers. And good starting point to learn from ready to step up on the turbos too. [emoji106] But as I said anything you can reduce the weight will be key for more power. [emoji6] but also will help the handling and modifications and braking in turn meaning more speed on corners. But thats to encourage you to speed of course [emoji6] we don't do things like that. [emoji2]
  6. Winter climbing making me feel cold thinking about it lol.
  7. Same as Pete I'm not sure either. I'm going for reliable [emoji6]
  8. Sounds good to me does it feel any better to drive.
  9. Each to their own I will always say that I don't judge peoples choices I don't think they look bad withouy them either just like the more full looking bumper [emoji2]
  10. Really only real things you can do is weight reduction and focus on brakes and handling to make it quick. Remaps can improve it too with some mods but not get a lot from it. Maybe 30+ bhp if you're lucky and not a cheap option for that little amount of gains [emoji20] and to get a turbo charge engine to swap isnt cheap or easy either [emoji20] But the car looks nice mate. And for a 1st car I think it's an excellent choice wish my 1st car was as good [emoji2] and like that you had to show your brother what a real car is over the evo [emoji23]
  11. I'd have had white blue or black. But if it meant I got it early I'd have done it too [emoji6]
  12. Ouch. As for the gx not sure but to be fair I'll never understand how insurance choose their pricing for customers. Could have a chat with Dan from Adrian flux on here should get a discount too. But again can be hit and miss like any other insurance.
  13. I'm the same as jay and im sure the workshop says to bleed them of set but if your just doing thr fronts and have rubber hoses still just use some mole grips too close the hose off remove the caliper should have to bleed it all then unless you drain it. And wanted to put fresh stuff in.
  14. Like tlags post pmsl [emoji23] no worries mate
  15. I'll have a look see if I can recover it.
  16. Went hunting an Audi s4 and got it. [emoji48]
  17. Hi mate welcome to S.O.C as chris said have a look at the link and worth reading it all what others have added. And feel free to ask if you have any questions great bunch on here all friendly [emoji2]
  18. Just another new sti to make me jealous [emoji20] But no welcome to S.O.C lovely looking car the black does suit the look I think on these new shapes. [emoji106]
  19. Here you go mate hopefully get lucky with it :D http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2008-Subaru-Impreza-2-5-GB270-PPP-WRX-BREAKING-FOR-PARTS-ONLY-/360916936886?pt=Automobiles_UK&hash=item54085368b6
  20. There was a write off on ebay not long ago. I will see if I can find it. Might get lucky on the alloys I know the interior and spoiler had gone.
  21. I will have a look around for you mate see what I can find, we have friends on UKlegacies forum too so might be able to get you something :D
  22. Ok mate will do sorry should have emailed him before now :)
  23. Hi mate I'd recommend speaking with Luke or anyother member of staff from here http://www.importcarparts.co.uk/parts.asp?cat=96 Luke has seemed the friendlier one for me though, but the other guys aren't bad :)
  24. Gambit replied to quit's topic in General Subaru Chat
