  1. I just landed in Belfast and was checking fb and ssw it he mapped my red one
  2. NOS! i love the stuff had it on my vectra years ago and looked at putting it on my MV6 miggy! I love supercharger noise, my dad had a corrado when i was a kid that used to whine like mad
  3. window open? the seals are crap on them ! Wheels might just need rebalancing up mate especially if you lost a weight or something on one corner
  4. just sawy your pic, take its a v4? You will need a daughter board ECU set up or go stand alone like a apexi unit! Yes the TD05 front entry turbo bolts strait on Savagebulldogs is the man in the know on these earlier scoob mapping etc
  5. no as my paradas dont like moisture.... And i like going sideways!
  6. Well as most of you know im not a car cleaning kinda guy , my company car gets washed by a quick jet wash or my friendly local eastern European friends , But my subaru barely moves and sits on my drive... gets dusty and water marked really easy!! SO.... the clay cloth company advertised, I got into clay bar some 8 years ago and thought wow this is a good bit of kit, me and my mate did it and made good results on our cars Clay cloth then.... 12 quid what have i got to loose? Start off with one dirty subaru complete with cob webs, bonnet looked a different shade of blue, the roof looked matte finish! First stage i washed it!! by hand and maybe the longest job i done in a while on it, i blacked the tyres and used some special wheel cleaner on it , It didnt come out too bad but i could feel the grit and dust laying on the paint !!! So the cloth, got it out the packet, Seemed strait forward and off i went, i did the entire car in less than 30 minutes! the cloth is a decent size ( about 300x300mm) so you can flip it easy then change sides etc, I kept rinsing it in the bucket of clean water and taking off the excess water with the other side "microfibre towel" type thing. The water was a muddy grey by the end! A quick over with some quick polish (pub was open and i was bored by now!) the shine was back! Complete! Conclusion: A very good bit of kit, I have left the towel to dry in the shed after a quick rinse so will be interesting see how many times it can be used but i think thats going to be a good point in its value for money as clay bars seem to last me a year or so cleaning for car shows etc.. The cloth is alot bigger than a clay bar, Clay bars annoy me having to keep remolding it but it does get in the corners etc better than this cloth but i managed to manipulate it to suit! In future i will use a bit of foam pipe lagging to wrap it around to get into that tight spot but to be honest this is great for a quick once over pre polish, Infact i next time would probably be just a wipe over with the cloth! Im not a detailer im just a normal guy... i dont go OCD and this is just a impartial review of what i think is a very good product. Pictures are just on my phone i took down the road yesterday Im not using this to sway my entry into the competition entry ! LOL
  7. nice! my mate has one very similar to this but he painted the wheels black and made it look loads different
  8. What year is it ? Yeah td05 will max out at 280 ish mate. But it's a great turbo if you want fast acceleration but Td05 is good upgrade maybe the cheapest
  9. Too small for most scoobs as you can't fit 4 pots on
  10. As above ! Decent leads , plugs and fuel pump What turbo you running ?
  11. Nope I just used the arb and the bushes
  12. The front wings can be used as replacements I think
  13. Shame I sold my old one to a mate for 60 quid !! They are great bits of kit
  14. damn, my mate works for these and i could of had a set ages ago but gave them to my nephew to play with
  15. yeah only accept it if it has a certificate! Saw a nice blob wrx earlier for sale 2995!
  16. No that's front only then 2 pot conversion for the rear So if you was to do a basic upgrade about 350
  17. Upgrade to decent quality discs and pads like Godspeed £150 max Godspeed upgrade kit can be had about 250 inc refurb Calipers second hand 6 pot conversion is about 500 quid Then rear 2 pot upgrade is about 200
  18. Yeah this was in my garden and no one about , would done my neighbour a favour tho as he is knocking it down anyway
  19. yeah it should pass ok ! not really done many miles since last time and has new suspension and brakes! going to the carbon skinners now with the arches see what can be done
