  1. I second revolution motorstore. They're big into their scoobs and will probably be able to recommend a few others. Also when you speak to them you feel like they take the time to make sure you get what you want. I've been looking at wheels maybe just dreaming cos I won't have much cash left over when I get the car but there was a few nice OZ 19's in subaru fitment 8.5 wide other than that I liked the speed line Turini and some of the bbs looked like they would look well on it, as it's a blue subaru it just won't look right without gold wheels ;)
  2. Does everyone realise if you switch your handbrake and clutch buttons so the clutch is on the A button its no more difficult than manual on its own? Just press a and b for shift up or a and x for shift down.

  4. Are you still getting rid of the car finn? I was wondering if you were gonna be selling the milltek seperate
  5. Harder than I thought I've got a 1:23.2 for now could probably get down to a 22.6 if I could keep a clean lap. Will try again soon
  6. I had 3 cars within 0.8 seconds of each other on the nurturing gp track on the first flying lap. 2650 lbs is only just below brz weight so grip wasn't an issue the blob eye still handled really well with a base tune. What's up with to enable parts dogconker? What if we had to share all the tunes we raced with? Is anyone also have a mess about on forza through the week?
  7. I'm having a mess about on it now. You only have to look at the leader boards to see that PI doesn't make it fair for all cars. I was thinking what if there was a weight limit a bit less than the lightest car (the brz) but that the heaviest car (the hatch) could get down to, about 2650lbs is about right. Then if there was a power limit of maybe 360 to 400 bhp and maybe just say no drive train or engine conversions to keep it authentic maybe this would get all the cars pretty close. I'm gonna try this with the hatch and the brz just for a mess about anyway.
  8. Anyone ever tried making a power limit and a minimum weight instead of going off the PI?
  9. I need to add a couple Of you that are gonna be on tonight and let me know which cars and tunes I need
  10. brogdog Usually on fifa, battlefield or forza
  11. I wouldn't mind getting in on this if there's space. You get some lunatics on forza in the public lobbies. My gamer tag is brogdog
  12. Yea I can't wait it will be good to have a car with a bit of pace again. I think I'll leave it standard until it's got a few miles on then maybe go for a milltek and remap later in the year
  13. Welcome dude I've just signed up myself and waiting until March to pick up my new sti so would be interested to know how your getting on with it. Which exhaust did you get is it the full system?
  14. Hi find did you get round to getting a remap on your car yet? I've just put a deposit down on a new sti and would be interested to know if anyone in the on here has already had an exhaust and remap.
  15. Cheers ill try and find it, it will be good to see if anyone has done a few mods on the new car.
  16. Well I've put a deposit down on the car so looking at picking it up in march and will probably go for an exhaust and remap later in the year. Looking forward to owning my first Subaru
  17. The bmw is a nice car and sounds great although it does cheat by amplifying the engine sound through the speakers like a lot of the latest cars, it could also do with an LTD amd it ends up around £8th more than the subaru even when your sensible on the options. I'm going to think over this for the week but I'm swaying towards the subaru as I think it's the best value for money as a drivers car. It might lack some of the latest fancy gizmos you get on the German cars but it's got a well sorted chassis with no compromises and proper 4wd. It may lose out on the other cars on 0-60 by a small amount but as it could make that back up with an exhaust and remap and still be cheaper it doesn't seem worth worrying about. As I've already said I think the subaru is a great looking car and I don't think I'm going to get bored of it in a hurry if it's what I go for.
  18. I've tried a lot of cars over the last 6 month and they've all had their good bits and bad bits. I do think the wrx sti is a great looking car and that's the first time I've thought that about a subaru since the hawkeye. It's got a great chassis and feels absolutely planted on the road I also think it's a lot of car for the money nowadays, I just thought they would have a bit more torque in the middle and wondered if there's a bit more power in that motor that could be freed up with just a remap.
  19. First of all hi everyone, I'm not a subaru owner yet but I'm after a new car and the new wrx sti has made my short list. I think it's a great looking car and love the sound of the motor. The other cars I've considered are the new golf r and the bmw m235i which both end up quite a bit more expensive when you tick a few options even when I factor in the subaru thirst and high road tax it's still seems a good deal. The only problem is the subaru felt quick but not amazingly fast so I was wondering what mods you guys would recommend and how much would I have to spend to get an extra 40 or 50 bhp. I've watched a few YouTube videos in the US of dyno runs where they are getting 260bhp out of a mapped car and they think this is great, am I missing something here or shouldn't these cars have more than this standard? So would be good to hear what a few of you have done with your car's before I stick a deposit down as the wrx sti seems like a good deal to me at the minute.
