I think a great big front mounted IC is needed instead of that tiny oil cooler sized one Stu.

Nice brace!

get the cambelt done at the garage but do the service your self you will save an arm and a leg + you know you have good oil, plugs and know its not been ragged about town

im takinig my car into M&A Topcoats tomorrow after work im having a full respray (but its about fooking time as its looking a bit scrappy). hope i can get it done over this weekend and collect it monday.

at the moment im just having a plain shiny black all over job..... but i am thinking about a colour change or effects ? i bought the car especialy because it is black but i was thinking as its a full respray i "could" change it?

opinions please

Where do you guys (and girls if there are any) get your cars serviced/mods done, as i don't know of any specialists in the area, I've heard the 'Rix" garage (dunno if its still called that) at the bottom of Humberston on the way to Tetney has a mechanic that does them but never been in there.

I do my own servicing and mods if they are not too complicated.

I have used Martin Clifford at Motormaxd, Speak to Acko about the guy he uses.

yes that garage is a good place to get things done on scoobs or evo's. The lad you want to ask for is called " Tuffy "

He drives an evo 8 and knows everything needed to know about these types of car.

Hope that bit of info helps you out m8
