  1. Isn't that how every Scooby owner gets home from work and parks in the garage?? :D
  2. I'll stick with my Impreza, altho I do love the whine from a supercharger :D
  3. I've seen a few BRZ' kicking about... shame they don't have a turbo! I would imagine turbocharging one wouldn't be the hardest thing in the world to do :D
  4. It looked like a McLaren MP4-12C
  5. Sandals

    False widow

  6. I've found kicking AI humans makes them stagger a bit and more likely to get hit with whatever weapon I'm weilding
  7. There are some zombies that are a bit more... shall we say... spritely? They are able to properly chase you... Also, night time changes the way you play dramatically... it essentially turns into a stealth game, the night time zombies (name escapes me....) are nothing short of brutal.
  8. I've also just got this on PC... so far i'm loving it!! Only downside is that it is poorly optimized for AMD/Crossfire configs... My PC should stomp this (AMD 7990 + 280x Tri-fire) but it runs just as well on my SLI 860m laptop... The game does have Nvidia logos plastered all over it...
  9. Battery tested perfect! Maybe because I was quite low on fuel? It was weird, my fuel gauge was nearly on the empty line, but for whatever reason my fuel warning light wasn't on (it has come on before) but I filled it up regardless... Possible it could be something to do with that?
  10. I've been looking at getting my wheels refurbed... previous owner didn't clean them all that well as they are kerbed and corroded... not overly bad, but a refurb wouldn't go a miss!
  11. Weird isn't it? If it was doing it maybe after I haven't used the car for a few days... then I wouldn't be surprised, but I've been using it all week and driving a minimum of 12 miles. I'll go to halfords during the week and get them to test the battery
  12. Then this morning, -1 degrees... had to scrape the ice off my car, started no problem!
  13. Haha! Yeh I know, this is a problem with me browsing the net when i'm at work... I always look at stuff I want!
  14. Yeh I'm def going to do it some point this year... priority is moving house, once I've done that, will start putting money aside for the work to get done, probably picking up parts as I go. Currently watching an STI up-pipe which will fit my blob and it does not have a cat. Then I'll probably get a race cat downpipe, get it all fitted then get the car mapped! Good to know about the up-pipe cat tho, my blob has only done 35k :D
  15. Wow, 272hp without changing any of the restrictive exhaust parts? That's quite impressive... I'll probably change the up-pipe at least, read a lot of stories online of the cats breaking up and sending bits into the turbo, then people say that if you're changing the up-pipe, you might as well change the down pipe since you have to remove the downpipe from the turbo to access the bolts that attach the up-pipe to the turbo!! I've learned all of this in the past couple of days since i barely work when i'm at work... love my job... :D
  16. I say sort of issue, because it has only happened twice in the 4 months I've owned the car... The first time it happened it was -5 so I purely put it down to the temperature, the engine is turning over and it sounds like it's almost catching and it took about 3-4 seconds for the engine to start, usually it's pretty much straight away. This was probably back in December, then tonight leaving work it did it again, only this time it was +5 degrees... I know not exactly roasty toasty, but didn't think it was cold enough to affect anything. Anything I could check relatively easily? Baring in mind by under-the-bonnet mechanic knowledge is pretty limited. No doubt it will be fine tomorrow morning when I leave for work :D
  17. You came up behind me leaving Edinburgh towards the Forth Road bridge and we had some fun... totally didn't speed or anything... *ahem* This was tonight around 6:15PM I was the black WRX blob with my private plate ending DUF :D
  18. No worries mate, I bought it for a friend as it came to just over a tenner... :D
  19. Add me on steam if you want it mate: http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198006396777/
  20. There was only 8 of us so we would just join a half full TF2 server or do VS on L4D2!
  21. +1 for removing the resonator. I have left the intake duct on and just left it open... had zero issues and it sounds great!
  22. My stag do was a LAN party in my house... great fun!
  23. I was about to post and say that I bought my impreza when the headlights were cloudy but manage to de-cloudify them with some abrasive solution and a buffing tool! Turned out great, but those headlights looks really smart!
  24. sorry, meant to link this: http://www.scoobyworld.co.uk/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=24_53&products_id=1111 This should allow to keep the last cat in the system... I wouldn't be doing any of this work myself, I have no clue about getting under a car! If my impreza was a second car I would be willing to give it a go... but it's my only car and it's a daily runner!
  25. Yeh it looks like there is a cat in the up-pipe as well. So could put in a new up-pipe which will remove the cat, go with a normal down-pipe but possibly keep the cat after the downpipe (along with the race cat in the downpipe) to keep emissions in check? Or do you think a single race cat with a remap should get below emissions standards?
