Mood swings me????
I won't be buying a rad from a breakers again......even looking at the car makes me wanna be angry, cry and smile at the same time.
It's great to have her back, she looks great but it seems she is destined to cause me grief.
I have seriously toyed with the idea of getting rid of her and getting another scooby, I could have bought a near brand new STI (00 model) for the amount I have spent so far........
BUT, I am a BIG fan of the original models and the fact that they have bigger turbos and just seem to have bags of personality........I know they aren't everyones cup of tea, but I love 'em!!! A 94 or 95 STI will be next.
Who knows.......

you would love my '95 sti ra then, you could have nipped out to the goose car park to check it over a couple of weeks ago, perhaps next time you are over.

The brakes look superbly fitted ... and the right way round too... for novelty value

stop me like a demon now thanks
hopefully now the replacements are on properly they won't warp
if you can persuade the dj to play some Pitchshifter I might do some karaoke, but prob not, replacing the shattered windows would cost too much !

Scooby Newbies are always welcome. Most of the pubs we go to (in fact all that I can remember) have been family pubs so nippers are welcome as well (start them young I say ) as long as you don't mind looking after them and not palming them off on me (kids spew when they get within 10 feet of me )

Pah, piece of cake mate!
That said, I blew my head gasket trying!
I'll have to cry off for this meet, my car's not fixed yet!
Hopefully, it'll be sorted for the next one...

Not with yours Simon as I hear it has more BHP than they come with usually.
but have it from 3 P1 drivers, 1 of whom has it standard and the other two who have straight through de-cat systems that I can give them a bit of a run.......well I don't lose them put it that way. I am never going to say it'll beat 'em cos it can't.......

yeaaaaah!!!!... we're gonna make you all stars!!! (well mikey is already anyway!!
)Everybody take your camera... Doesn't matter whether it's digi or film. If it is digi PLEASE go for highest possible res. As you might end up taking an award winning pic, that is magazine quality... only to find we can't blow it up!
Talking to Mikey and Trouser Snr.... we thought it might be funny and more interesting for True Grip readers to see a slightly more light hearted look at meets. So obviously any pics that make us smile, whilst containing a relevant scooby element are pretty mauch guaranteed to end up in True Grip next issue!
Just a quick note from your old uncle Trouser... the pace of the cruise at the last meet was perfect!!!.. we all had fun.. not many people got lost
and we all drove responsibly, safely and represented the club rather well i thought! As Mikey, Hayley and charlie whiskey have all put themselves out... lets do 'em proud and keep it clean, tidy and of course within the legal limits..
(sorry to sound about 100.... but this has the makings of a grand day out.. be a shame to spoil it!
)here endeth the lecture
Cheers guys!

(who can't go fast cos of the drag from his tyres

Just to confirm then, due to the weather not exactly being bbq esque, food will happen en route.
Unless it suddenly gets sunny that is
We'll play it by ear (where did that saying come from? )
CYA out there

Just got back from the meet - initial dodgy weather gave way in the end to blue skies and sun. A great route, thanks Chris, and excellent company as usual.
Looking forward to the next one. Hope everyone enjoyed the BBQ, hosetd by Mikey and Hayley
