Now as you know me and v.c don't believe in saving and i like to spend ,too much on times however i've been lucky enough to come into a small amount of money so i promised to give him some for the other love of his life , now the problem we've got is we don't know what to spend it on what do you think guys any suggestions most welcome

this is v.c's wish list
1 full service
2 new clutch(not slipping)
3 new disc's
4 set of potenza tyres
5 wheel referb
6 rear window spoiler
7 secs unit
8 new suspension
9 andy f remap
10 strut braces
11 MY PERSONAL FAVORITE, LARGE BONNET SCOOP AND ROOF VENT (WHITE CARBON)

 

Go on holiday

 

yeah i'm doing that aswell and a new wardrobe for me and my cherubs

 

SECS

 

If you need a service and tyres then you cant ignore these but if its a bit of bling then a wheel referb.
PS
Your not allowed to alter the look of your spec -c buy adding bits of plastic, if it did not come with the car then you cant have it
Less is more if you get my drift

 

i think i'd go with an andy f remap just after a fulll service

 

Agree, full re-map. Sod the tyres get them when your desperate

 

Why not do them all

Yes I know I'm no help

 

Don't change the suspension, Not worth it, you ain't getting much better than whats on the Spec c even with coilovers.

After seeing the curb marks on the wheels last weekend, I'd be going with the refurb. Grey or a light black would be nice

 

no need for tyres he just want's a set for the summer,nothing wrong with the suspension ,as i said the clutch is not slipping,all jokes aside don't want to change the car cosmeticaly but the wheels need to be sorted ,a service is a must , will an andy f remap improve the car? i planned to buy him a secs unit for xmas.I suppose it would be sensible to change the disc when we've got spare cash.

 

the remap probably will make a big difference, even though its been mapped elsewhere already. From what i understand andy f is one the best at mapping, though i'm interested in hearing his results with ecutek software as this is what he would be doing for richie and myself

 

this is v.c's wish list
1 full service a must asap
2 new clutch(not slipping)no need just yet but high
3 new disc'sa must worn
4 set of potenza tyresfor summer
5 wheel referbwhen weather gets better
6 rear window spoilercarbon i like a lot
7 secs unitneed to know whats happening underneath
8 new suspensionseviced
9 andy f remapwill he make it better than it is now?
10 strut bracesit stiff already but what the hell
11 MY PERSONAL FAVORITE, LARGE BONNET SCOOP AND ROOF VENT (WHITE CARBON)was looking at fmic but was told bigger scoop on front will be better option cos i've no lag and thats the way i like it
thanks for the input all
if any of you guys have any other suggestions to improve what i got will be very welcome
richie

 

If money ain't a problem then I would say the following in order :

Full service which you can do the discs at the same time
Sec's unit with all the goodies
Wheel refurb and tyres at the same time

 

Agree with Matt here

I would also have a talk with Andy about your map and the history of the mapping on the car Richie... after hearing the boys first hand experiance that may be well worth it.

Ask him about a knocklink as well that may be worth fitting... if your mapping for power you need monitoring equipment that is a must.
Rob's car demonstrates that.

NO REAR SPOILER before you think it and you know my thoughts on the window spoiler.... want me to post that picture I have Richie ?? shall we look at an unconventional alloy colour choice maybe ?

 

yea yea

reading my mind fella
get it up
the little carbon spoiler on the window looks subtle
wheels in dark bronze or day glow pink
the car was mapped with the safty aspect weighing heavy in its favour and max boost 1.2 bar it is currently at 330bhp

 

How's this

 

 

Dark wheels and you ain't goner get better than that,

Bronze would be a good colour richie

 

You agree then Criss

Come on Richie if your going for a refurb lets take a step into the unknown

Orange.... Red.... Green... Sonic Blue... Dayglow

 

Dannyboy you've planted a seed anthracite might look different more so if he goes for a carbon roof spoiler
Donna

 

matches your personality mate

 

The colour lines of the rear window spoiler go well with the car colour and the blacked window tint, as your running no rear spoiler as in the pic I think this works well
Wheel colour all i can say is that i've seen a subaru modding company that runs white bodys with blue wheels and they look stunning
I cant get my head around the blob eye taller sti bonnet scoop on a bugeye for me it just dont look right I take your point about more air flow into the i/c, look at getting a i/c splitter to improve things that way.
Being a spec c you will need to keep it looking that way IMO but its your car so its your choice .
Never been a better time to buy a SEC's unit cheap as chips at the moment.

 

White car......................White Wheels. Go on you know you want to

 

White car- green wheels BEAUTIFUL. The scoob in the picci above is stunning.

 

i knows once i've convinced you i've won them all fella
you are harder to please than mrs vc
who do i need to see about a secs unit kev and do they come with a knocklink?
i think its got to be dark matalic bronze me thinks for the wheels can't be going down the dayglo dai route
whats the best price you guys have had for grooved discs brembo

 

the secs units do read knock though they are not knocklinks if that makes sence

 

nice one rob that makes sense to me

 

See here for you sec's unit clicky and speak to simon i think
No knocklink but knock correction which tells you how the ecu is running. + correction is good - correction is bad so it does help.
Some of the better functions are boost pressure, water temp. battery volts and a clock
Your peak boost pressure along with RPM and road speeds are also recorded

 

don't forget fault code reading

 

My PSi3 arrives today!!

No guesses what i'm doing after work tonight
