I did an A level in physics at school a year early ... Thinks makes so much sense and i should know this haha! Thanks Dave :) Also doing 130 to 0 would be around 5.5 G of force... imagine that guy at 9!, Mind you i bet his was more gradual into that force.

Car not so smooth?
Come to think of it, I did tighten the hand break when i first got the car, may be possible its not 100 percent down, will give it a test and what can i do to test calipers short of taking them off?

Car not so smooth?
Hello all, anyone have any ideas on this? when i am driving and drop my clutch, my car (03 impreza 2.0 T) doesnt seem to carry on rolling like you would expect, it seems to jerk as if i had tapped the brakes on? same with changing gears some times, making the drive not so smooth. Any help would be great thank you !

High Speed Noise
That's a good point, there is some small zip tie mods down in the end the noise comes from. possibly wind coming through this? as long as its not the "your wheels going to come off" noise its not a big issue

Any info on lowering springs?
Hey guys, in the future I am wanting to get some lowering springs for my 03 Blob, basically just to make it a bit lower and improve handling, reduce body roll. Do I need to spend loads on them or will some eBay ones do? is there a cheaper better way to improve handling? What size lowering springs would you recommend? any other info would be awesome :D

is this a wise modification path?
When my dad got his Merc SL, I took him down and was speaking to the guy about the A45 he had in with a big spoiler and all the areodynamic package on. he said "they are super quick cars but i don't know who would buy one, you would look like a right child in it with the big spoiler" I wiped the drool of my face and told him how wrong he was.

is this a wise modification path?
This was on a very long, not very windy road so it was all about the top end speed stuff. Although to say how long the road was he decided to overtake on a blind hill doing around 150mph .... not what i would do but each to there own! he pulled over to have a chat but i thought he was just turning off so i carried on going and left him. i bet i looked like a bad loosed :') but I had fun even if he did have the faster car :D
