Pissing about with the scoob today down the unit and though i would give it a clean along with my dad’s GT4RC fitting pair I think old mans allways taking **** out of me jokingly for having a scoob as when I was a kid we would pretend subarus are our rivals in the GT4 think he has owned that car for over 15 years or something maybe more.

Fire solves everything 🤣 second cat removed, painted the sti top mount black and fitted. Fitted some solid gear selector bushes as well just have to fit my new UJ now but ran out of time to do it so will have to wait for another day. Even gave the engine bay a little clean as it was a disgrace.

Fitted some new spark plugs and a RCM fuel pump ready for its remap on Thursday 🤓 see what power she makes. 280bhp would be nice but still has the down pipe cat so have to see.

So car got mapped yesterday finally, but unfortunately after the second pull the clutch started slipping 😅 so figures are a bit of on the graph but best he could get it to show. Should be around the 340/350 ftlb torque but clutch was slipping in its peak torque curve. Still happy it did 280bhp with a slipping clutch.

Cheers TDR nice friendly service would recommend.

Next job to be done clutch lol

Yer it feels pretty good, needs a little more tho I think undecided to wait until I can forge it or go for a bigger turbo in the mean time aiming for about 330 350bhp feel like I’m just wasting money and time by doing that tho if the end goal is to forge it. See what happens 🤣

Well I’ve owned the car a year today so thought I would treat it to a little make over so spent all day doing so 😆

Now rocking hyper black Satin wheels. used plasti dip to paint these as always wanted a go with it. Turned out way better than expected and can go back to my original colour when ever I want. Not that I do.

fitted some carbon fibre look pillar vinyl sicker things from scobyworld.

Carbon fibre look exhaust cut out surround that I rivnutted. Don’t really no why but I can remove it for what ever reason. also from scoobyworld.

fitted a strait pipe now instead of a silencer sounds awesome.

repaired the massive hole in my splitter at work and plasti dipped black








brought some canards decided just to for one small one each side try to keep it looking smart.

fitted some new shiny purple wheel nuts

cleaned my headlights up as they where so dull.













i have a few things still to fit including an exedy pink box clutch and light weight flywheel just need some good weather.

some 8k springs front and back for the coilovers so I can then hopefully fit a 255 35 18 tyre on without rubbing. That’s it’s for now don’t no what’s after that see what I can afford to do 😅

I like that a lot. Looks so much better with the wheels in black now.

Bet your neighbours love you with the new exhaust setup!

So brought this Godspeed big brake kit from a nice chap on hear, sorry cant remeber your name. He then proceeds to sell me a rear anti roll bar also so i now havs one of them to 😅

24mm whiteline rear arb.

Brought a new splitter and fitted that today.

Painted the arb needs powder coating really but a job for another day me thinks.

Removed plasti dip from wheels prefer them silver for now. I defo would like to change the colour of them tho any suggestions im thinking maybe gold or a dark bronze. Got some red mudflaps coming should be hear monday not sure if they will look right hope so as allways wanted them 🤣
