  1. The only styling bits I've seen have around the UK have been grills, front lips and different exhausts. There are also a cple of options for the rear lights like swapping the rear red fog for a clear one so the rear matches. Apart from wheels, lowering the ride height, front lips and lights there's not much stuff for the hatch in the UK, you'd have to look at the US, Oz or Japan to get aftermarket styling bits. http://www.just-subaru.com/ http://www.japanparts.com/ http://www.avojdm.com/ http://prorracing.co.uk/ http://www.scoobyparts.com/ http://www.scoobyworld.co.uk/catalog/index.php
  2. Yeah he's done quite a bit of work to it.
  3. How do you pronounce Subaru? "Sue Ba Roo" or "Zoo Ba Roo"
  4. Yeah it's a bit too far for me too. Doesn't seem to be too many members down south where I am. Think for me its gonna have to be a big show to meet up with everyone.
  5. Theres a bloke on Surrey Scoobs doing tyhis with a MK1 Escort. http://www.surreyscoobies.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=47453
  6. Welcome to the Mad House Becky (always been one of Fav names) :) There is a midlands Scooby club http://midland-scoobies.com/ which is a local rather than national Forum, maybe worth checking out to see if there are any local meets to you.
  7. Welcome to the Mad House :)
  8. I reckon it would be an idea to arrange a club stand at a show, that way we can promote the club show of the best cars in the club. I haven't done a lot of the shows, only a few at Santa pod with the classic a few years ago so don't really know the show scene that well. I used to go to Bug Jam and Beetle Bash which were Aircooled VW shows. Are there any Scoob only shows these days or is it all a mixture of cars?
  9. Here's a few suppliers of bits there's 2 or 3 uk based ones here, along with some good jap ones. http://www.just-subaru.com/ http://www.japanparts.com/ http://www.avojdm.com/ http://prorracing.co.uk/ http://www.scoobyparts.com/ http://www.scoobyworld.co.uk/catalog/index.php
  10. How about dash mounted pods? http://www.ets-racing.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/Page5.html
  11. Congrats on the pic its bigger than the pic I had of mine. I went to a Surrey Scoobs power run day at a rolling road once. we were asked to fill out a form on your cars specs. I thought it was for the rolling road guys to know what was on the car. There was some bloke taking pics with all this pro kit. And next thing my cars got a spot in a fast car magazine feature on the scoob rolling road day. I'd only has the car a few months and was well chuffed. Oh and the ring pic is miles better :D
  12. I watched that Hunt Lauder thing, last of the Gentlemen racers those 2. Legends both of them. Ron Howard's film rush look worth going to see.
  13. All those VW's and not even one Bug :( I remember driving Fiat with the straight 5 from Volvo in it, can't remember the model except is was a nasty yellowy green colour. Still the car was a hoot though. Good luck with the hunt for a scoob :)
  14. I cant see why not although I think it would he a lot of work to remove the temp gauge from the dash and replacing it with a boost gauge. I would think about a digital boost gauge rather than temp if dials are not your thing. The Apexi AVCR is both a Gauge and a boost controller that give much better control of the turbo. I had one in my classic and it was the dogs nuts. They're not cheap but well worth the investment. http://www.apexi-usa.com/store/electronics/avc-r/avc-r-boost-controller-black.html
  15. Why can I never do a job on the car with out skinning my knuckles or cutting my hands to bits?

    1. dogma1

      dogma1

      that's because some little git in japan made the car and they have little hands....

  16. Fitted a Depo boost gauge today. Pod came from ETS racing. It's just stuck down with sticky pads at the moment, looking for a more permanent fix. Quick vid of start up. http://youtu.be/_CsW4a_n7XE
  17. From the album: 2008 STI Type UK

    Start up sequence of the Depo Boost gauge fitted to my STI.
  18. I'm just glad it's working. lol there was me thinking: the garage had ripped me off. I had a hole in the tank. 15 ltrs is a !Removed! big reserve. I dreamt I put petrol in the car. I've finally lost the plot. Hahahaha
  19. typical after spending half an hour searching through the workshop manual PDF's I had to go move the car, turned on and the gauge is now Working. Oh well just glad I didn't have to rip the back of the car out to check it :)
  20. Got the orange reserve light on way home last night, stopped and put £20 in the needle didnt move. On the way to work put another £20 in and the needle still hasn't moved its just hovering on the last but on line of the guage. The needle moves during the start up sequence as normal. With £40 it should be at just over halfway. Anyone got any ideas?
