Hi Everyone, Just back from Scotland again, Sorry to hear Lee wont be coming againg for the meets, hope to bump into you again mate

2 of my fitters took me for a ten mile moutain bike ride over the mountains near some Roman Settlement, was really good, very hard work for a fat fkr like me lol, i came off going downhill, the grass just went blury as my eyes started to get watery with the speed, ended upside down, not hurt but quite funny.

See you on Sunday night,

Cheers!

Noon all,

Shameless plug, but quite a good pic in Total Impreza

Car still away, roll cage not arrived yet, sound deadening removed, and dash out.

Evening everyone,

Another excellent result from the rugby team.

Just fitted my Scorpion stainless exhaust and front strut brace to add to the Eibach lowering springs and wheel spacers it already has so the handling is about as good as it is going to get.

Hi lee (and everyone else )

What 'drop' have you gone for with your springs? have already done the solid drop links, and uprated anti-roll bar, it all makes a great difference,

ref, your spacers, will this push your wheels out past the bodywork?

Hi Dill,

The lowered springs where on the car when I bought it along with the spacers, I have a computer print out of the suspension geometery it was set to.

The only problem is the lack of clearance under the car, if it is three inches off the deck I would be suprised.
The spacers bring the wheels out fine and dont protrude from the bodywork.

It handles pretty good, just a hand full in the wet, it wheel spun in third a couple of weeks ago whilst I was pushing on a little bit.

I always take it easy in the wet now, had some new, cheap, 'ditchfinder' tyres when i first bought the car, and span in 3rd, accelerating through 60, ended up in middle of the road, luckily on a dual carriageway, shat myself, aquaplaned too, last time the flood sirens were going in Louth on the A16on track tyres

Are you going for the November track day then?
