looking to get some new brakes
oh, yeah I'd like a set of the turbogrooves, but again very expensive. :( Yeah they still do the pads, i think its standard, then greens, then reds, then yellows. I'm defo fancying the red ones, I read they produce less brake dust. Which is always a winner.

looking to get some new brakes
thanks stanton will check that site out. So, I've pretty much decided on either EBC standard discs or Black Diamond 6 or 12 grooved discs along with EBC red stuff pads. - Are red stuff pads ok with black diamond discs btw? IO heard they can damage some other disc brands? I would like the EBC ultimax discs but at 200 a set, its far too much for me. :( Should I go for standard discs or grooved?

What fuel do you put in?
So guys, As I've recently got my scooby. I've not yet had the joy of filling it up. So, what fuel gives you the best MPG? I'm getting 29ish at the moment, but i have no idea what fuel is in there. Had a full tank when I bought it.

What made you...
well, my old car was on its last legs (long story)... so spoke to a family member who buys cat D write offs, then repairs them up and sells them on, a week or so later he bought a legacy. The second I saw it, I knew it was the car for me! I bought it off him for a very good price :)

lol, well i can either get some mintex front and rear discs and pads, for about 130 quid on ebay. Or ebc front and rear discs and redstuff pads for about 300 quid lol. quite a price difference.

looking to get some new brakes
thanks Pete, i have been looking at EBC, although that site doesn't seem to list my exact model Also is there much difference between the standard ebc discs and the turbo grooved versions? Are Mintex discs and pads any good?

looking to get some new brakes
so, I'm looking to get some new discs and pads for my legacy. I did look at MTEC discs, although, a quick google shows that feedback seems to be hit and miss, so I'll most likely avoid them. Any other decent brands anyone would recommend? or should, I just get normal stock discs with good pads? Any ideas gents?

Legacy Spolier :)
got the spoiler today, will get some pics up when its fitted :)

Legacy Spolier :)
yeah that makes sense Jay. What kinda brands should I look at?
-
Legacy Spolier :)
lol, you guys are going to get fed up with me asking questions... but as Jay said i could focus on the brake. I had a look around, not really sure what i'm looking for though hahah. I came across a brand called MTEC. No idea if they are any good, but would something like these be suitable. which leads to the question of which style. Drilled Drilled and grooved Grooved Dimpled and grooved money isnt a major concern as i got the car for a banging price, so don't mind paying for decent brakes.

Legacy Spolier :)
yeah have to admit scoobys are great. Not sure what else I can add once I've added the spoiler. Any ideas chaps?
-
Legacy Spolier :)
Just ordered myself a legacy spoiler on ebay :) How exciting is this car stuff? I've been driving for nearly 10 years, and never really bothered improving/looking after my cars. But since getting this scooby, I've spent a wedge on cleaning products and now a spoiler. hmm, whats next? ;) ps don't tell the missus... oh, the spoiler is the same as this guys...

Virgin Media - Any Good
If you can get fibre optic through virgin then go for it. I've got a couple of techy mates that swear by it. if you cant get fibre optic to your door, then possibly look towards BT infinity. One thing i would do, is make sure that you don't have a download limit.

Never thought of a wrx spoiler. I was considering this one i found on Ebay, Although, I'd need to sand it down/respray it.
