BTW,

is there a Hatch stand for the NBO?

I wanted one

Perhaps Lordharding can let us all know the score here

Could be brake pads moving slightly back, then front etc. as you move?

Does it only happen when you change direction - forwards to backwards or otherway round, and not just going in same direction afermovingoff?

Yes there was a list I think a few pages back and it got to four
There will be a separate section in the arena for the hatches but if someone can start a list on here get say
Minimum 8 hatches we can get a plot for you all to park together
We have 5/6 in Cumbrian Scoobs but I would imagine they will all be wanting to park with their own club (like myself) so the main contacts would be on here or the gr forum

Salsa - king would you like to project manage this ?
Information is on the northern section of scoobynet on club stands ,we have ten at the moment and you could trawl through the master list and try to pick up an hatch or two there
The smallest club has 8 cars so should not be a problem getting them all together so if you can sort them out it would be great as the field is bigger enough for them but I would nit just like to see 3/4 hatches on it

My names is on the list but not attached to any club, so would be interested in going on a "Hatch" stand.

Out of curiosity has anyone got a JDM STi Hatch and confirm what the road tax is on these 2.0l's?

Good call!

To test this out, from stationary go forward and apply brake, then reverse and apply brake then forward again and apply brake. If you get the clunk with every brake after direction change there's your issue. It's common/normal.

The first braking event in forward or reverse moves the pads in the calipers and you get the clunk. Usually you won't get any further clunking until you apply the brakes going in the opposite direction. If you're getting the clunk with every repeated forward or reverse braking then it's possibly something else.

Prodrive
Dealer did try Subaru directly - they said that they are no longer available.

I'll give that a go tomorrow but think it's only as i'm turning (1/2 lock), will test to eliminate the brakes if i can though. Thanks.

I'll be at NBO & no club affiliation so will go into a hatch hutch if possible!

thanks

Yes M8, sort it tomorrow when some funds hit mine!

Just fitted my new blitz nur spec cat back, not as loud as I was expecting, but wow what a piece of engineering, pretty straight and definitely a genuine 3" system. Should get louder with the cats out

Pics man pics!

and sound file lol

Sound Clip as wells please....

I have one on the R205 sounds fooooooookin amazing. It's 3" untill it jount the standard down pipe however I am having mine modified so it's 32 through out to join a 3" down pipe.

It must of cost you abit £1500 just for the car back?

This doesn't really do it any jutcie to be honest

hmmmm ..... corsa with a cherry bomb come to mind.







anyone know what the Spec C suspension is like compared to normal 330s/STi set up?

Better?

OK, stiffer a bit, better damped, lower ride, I think lighter parts, more ally bits?

in day to day normal 'our' driving would we know any difference?

must say I'm pleased how my 330s goes rounds bends, the car seems to have no corner roll. To the point I'd say why would you want Spec C set up if this is how good it is as standard.

I would suggest it would benefit press on driving and maybe track days, but be OK for shopping trips and rough village roads.

I found the 330S had too much understeer and did roll a bit / too much for my taste, so I had the Prodrive springs fitted which helped both issues, and the a lot of PU bushing and some Whiteline geometry adjustment parts, which helped more.

But I do perhaps carry too much speed into a bend so bring out the worst of the chassis .....

so it'll be you getting a £100 on the spot fine then for bad driving into bends lol

Yep!

As well as worn tyres!

prodrive springs made a 1000% improvement over body roll to standard STI springs!!!
