  1. Well in theory it can only get better from here on in ☺
  2. Yup not great planning - it was part of the boys birthday package but he was admitted back in hospital today - cant shake this appendix infection
  3. Had forgotten - it includes a paddock pass also x3 adults and x1 child aged 6-15
  4. Due to unfortunate circumstances we cannot attend tomorrow's show. We have 4 tickets to give away. The tickets were purchased over the net and are email received so we can forward them to whom ever. The tickets include pass to the live show and were purchased for x3 adults and one under 10. Challenges. We will not be able to forward the email until later this evening and also we have to check they can be transferred - we believe so, hence posting this. If you are interested send me a message and we can try and sort the transfer out so you can enjoy the day and the tickets are not wasted Cheers Jay
  5. What is your budget as there are a few nice examples out there but sorry to say having been watching for last 18 mobths or so the prices keep creeping up
  6. Wotcha and welcome - no noob stick wielding on this forum - feel free to get stuck in, as already mentioned I would check for leaks / splits in hoses
  7. That is a rapid motor. power to weight ratio way wont kill the gear box but has done quite a bit already - what is the kerb weight at the moment? possible race gel battery, plexiglass, carbon fibre / alloy panels, race fuel cell?
  8. Not got a clue what you are describing wrt camera settings etc but the shots look great :)
  9. Wotcha and welcome - quite a few Fozzy owners on here so feel free to get stuck in as all friendly :)
  10. Wotcha and welcome - feel free to get stuck in, all friendly on here :) Not sure but do you need to change boot lid as well to fit the bigger spoiler on the saloon?
  11. Wotcha and welcome chum - all friendly on here so ask away, post a thread in the relevant section and hopefully we can get you some answers - in between the inane ramblings and general childishness there is a wealth of knowledge on here
  12. I remember reading about an upgraded springs and shocks pack - Bilstein and Eibach that improves things - it drops the front by 20mm but retains rear ride height which I felt would help as I found the front rose a little more than I would have liked on the STi I had. Unfortunately I didn't have the car long enough to fit the kit and comment on results. As a compromise on cost ahead of the coilovers and as a complimentary interim step have you thought of upgrading the rear anti roll bar, also do you have a front strut brace fitted? I will be considering a faster steering rack for my next hatch to make it easier in the twisties food for thought... http://www.litchfieldimports.co.uk/SUBARU/Subaru-Performance-Upgrades/subaru_08_handling

  14. currently driving an RX auto - not driven the 1.5 but I would imagine it is quite slow in comparision to the 2.0. Driving and handling is fine it rolls more than the STI I experienced before (no real surprise I suppose) putting XL tyres on improved things a little. The auto box gear changes could do with tweaking and I understand there is a 'pack' you can load to improve things as there are similar issues with the legacy auto box but am still waiting to hear from my local subaru stealer about that one The auto is ideal for using the torque and grunt to drive in a smooth fashion but does not compare to spirited stirring of the manual box so dont buy the auto if you want to be doing spirited driving in that fashion - its just not that type of motor. I does hold the road well and will cruise long haul with no issues at all (cruise control etc fitted) flooring the throttle results in sustained high revs before changing gear but the 'pack' may resolve that. I am considering changing the springs for standard STI ones to see if that stops the body rolling quite as much, but we are supposed to be letting the eldster inlaws use this so probably wont happen. dunno if this helps really - probably the best option is let your mate drive yours as well as the other two options then point him at a 330s - some JDM inports come with auto boxes ;) edit - aa review http://www.theaa.com/allaboutcars/cartestreports/2007097.html
  15. not seen that - not had it in either of mine?? - photos??
  16. nightmare but glad all ok!!
  17. one thing after another eh?? I turn up the in car rattle eradicator :)
  18. Wotcha and welcome - some pictures may help as the part might be interchangeable
  19. Wotcha and welcome - all friendly on here so feel free to get stuck in. There is no problem with posting on this forum in the for sale section and as such you can post lots of hi res shots to show off your motor. This site has lots of collectables on it and has vehicles with a premium tag - however sometimes you need patience to get the figure you want http://www.carandclassic.co.uk/cat/3/506/
  20. Wotcha and welcome sounds like a real result, scoobies are the ideal family motor - feel free to get stuck in with the forum and keep us posted on any mods ☺
