You can't educate pork.

 

Fine, convince yourself you cars a faster, cant be bothered to look at all the links, but 2 I did look at did not have any corners in.

Gay 1/4 stuff...ZZZZZZzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

 

Be ok if any of them opened but they dont ........... sounds like they are all gay straight line stuff anyway

because I have vids of my pug passing scoobs does it make it quicker, please say it does

 

I've said it before and I will say it again, This forum is populated by people or persons who have little or no experiance on owning any type of subaru, They then proceed to slag off every marque of subaru they can, comparing them to cars that they will never drive(let alone own!), EVER!
That is why threads like this should be deleted by the mods before the halfwits who troll on here get chance to type their dribble!

I will say this again, It's about time this fourm was regulated better, even requiring a modest joing fee( like some other jap car fourms) Those of us who use it for information will have no quibble paying up, Those who troll will move on elsewhere.......................

 

Who is that aimed at N*UFO?

 

Could'nt be you Gary could it! After all you are the expert!

No disrespect but will you ever be happy with any car you own?


LOL

 

My experience is this........

I owned and modified a subaru for 3 years.
I used the car on road and on track.
I go on track once a month.
I'm an average driver on both road and track (i think)


I have therefore seen more than my fair share of scoobs on track, some driven well, some driven badly.

I have seen more than my fair share of other cars driven on track, some driven well and some badly.

In my opinion that gives me the right to comment on this sort of thread.

I was happy with my Subaru when it was used on the road, I wasn't happy with it on track.

I'm always happy with my little hatch

I love my Rover, yes Rover.

I do however know the limitations with all of them......

 

I don't dissagree, I have a very similar experiance with cars and driving, I would however say that when you put you're point acroos in such a negative way you will annoy some of us subaru owners,

You may not have thought your impreza was what you wanted, For me however my impreza is superb both on and off the track , I do not go forcing my positive opionions down peoples throats so why do you have to force you're negative ones?

I'm off down the pub now to live a little, but if this needs continuation then i'll have a look tomorrow afternoon when i get home from a hard days graft!

 

if u ad bothered to read up the reviews which said the subarus handling is a match for the porsches, it also said that standard they not in the same league but only due to the price difference, nothing to do with the handling characteristics, love to know what car u drive pal, apparently with my subaru being a chav car, only cost me £20'000

 

 

N*UFO if your experience is similar to mine talking about road and track work why is your only comparison racing 911's down the A14 slip road? Sorry but I find that comical. Can you beat him from the light too?

I'm not sure what negative opinions you mean? If its about the STi std brakes being ****e lets find someone who uses their car hard on track who disagrees with me. Not a negative opinion its a fact.

If its about the understeer, point me to someone who uses their MY03 era std car on track who doesn't feel the same?

As I have said before I enjoyed subaru ownership and still love some models. I will however comment on threads where I think bull**** is being spouted.

Gary


Great thread by the way

 

Point taken!

Here's my plan:

1) Dirty Diesel into the Porsches lovely new fuel tank
2) Add a little sugar
3) Put the difference the cars cost in pound coins, into the porsches front boot
4) Get my boss totally wasted the night before (obviously letting him pay)

That way, I might actually stand a chance!!

Honestly thought, I'm not fussed one bit if I can't keep with him, I totally understand the cars are in a very different league. Just wanted to put the question to you lot for the advice and feedback you've given!

Cheers! MikeyB

P.S BOB, if the items are still for sale, I'll still take them off your hands, I;ve been away mate with work! Apologies!!

 

Sod this i is going to sell my scooby and buy a vauxhall nova and paint the wing mirrors burberry! SO there

 

I now hear the pub calling! "Make those largers long and cool!"

 

using brakes on track????? whats that all about.Some people need to learn to drive

 

[MikeyB] please paste the events of the day, whatever the out come, it will make a good read, plus bring out all the ( told you so's)

 

Yes second that - post up what happened.

My feel is that the scoob is the ultimate all rounder. Its huge grip and controlable handling on the limit make it one of utimate twisty road weapons .
Kind of a very good jack of all trades but master of none - which is its brilliance

Agree with GPug ...However on a dry track my money would be on the 997. Definately more suited to these conditions especialy In terms of handling, braking

Driver ability is the key factor as always.

Hope you nail him - however

Trying to get an in-car camera system setup for the day, that way, I'll show you the actual footage of me kicking a pissed up director about on the track!

 

Look forward to it what date will this be on

 

The impreza is poor on track, oh that is unless you count that a Spec C goes
round the Nurburgring faster than the majority of 911's.

 

Dates still to be decided, but will post it up as soon as I know! Will be in the next 3 or 4 weeks though.

 

So you're just going to get him pissed and kick the sh*t out of him. You don't need in-car for that.. or even a visit to the track

 

Another new Impreza suffered wheel bearing failure at the ring on Sunday. The driver was very lucky to be around to talk about it.

 

how many driveshafts have you been through in pug ownership?lol

 

Not sure what the issue is with the bearings on scoob?

I did one in mine and it took the carrier with it. A friend has done both sides twice or maybe three times and the guy at the weekend did his with the car being about a year old I think?

Drive shafts on the pug ...... One in 121K miles. I can live with that
