All done thanks fellas. Took the gaitors off both the gear shifter and handbrake which left me room to take that screw out. Then just a lot of trying to find the right angle to get it out. All the arm rest plastics are primed, just sanding down the centre console piece now, then spraying tomorrow.

I couldn't tell as I had to prodrive cat back fitted at same time. Slightly more burble but to be honest it still sounds as if it could get away with being factory noise levels

I think i've look at the wrong line on my rev counter.. what I thought was the 500rpm.. is actually the 750rpm.. so my revs might be right lol

salsa-king

what you think?

I like the black roof Phil, not sure of the interior lighting / camera effect?

I've decided against getting mine resprayed white, purely down to cost and resale implications!

Anyway mine idles here

Looks and feels about right.

Full car wrapped properly costs about 1200-1700. Least you can take it off when you've had enough.
It also means you can buy a car in a rubbish colour that's cheaper then wrap it in the colour you want.

Couple of questions please.

How do you deal with a stone chip?
Do you wash and dry the car normally as though it wasn't even wrapped?

DM1

The roof wrap looks really well on them.

DM1

Sean i just wash and dry as normal. Use black hole and naviwax on the roof. Got mine done at blackwater graphics.

DM1

It would nice with side stripes like mine only the STI in red.

Spotted a blue hatch on gold wheels on the a34 north, stafford to stoke today 0730, identical to mine, thought mine was the only local one, anyone here?

ericooper

Going to get my remap much sooner than planned, for piece of mind, who's top choice in the midlands? Scoobyclinic is obvious choice but expensive with ECUtek licence fee on top, what exactly is the total cost at scoobyclinic? And what do you get? Andy hammond is recomended but a long way off, although he did mention doing like a high and low boost map option etc, there is also opensource like thwaites developments who seem to come in cheaper and are also recomended, clearly im not going to just go to the cheapist but want most for my money.

Duncan (racedynamix) is worth a call, he comes to you and either maps on the road or at a rolling road depending on garage. Give him a call 07540 185754, he'll let you know prices and options. Open source was roughly £350 last time I seem to remember.

I drive through stoke every now and then, blue blob or sometimes sliver hatch STI.

ericooper

£350 is more sensable, SC qoute £550+vat, andy is a bit cheaper, il look into racedynanix, anybody any experience?

Ive seen a black/grey hatch in stone with a dent and red on up stoke, not seen another like mine til today.

you might be best asking on MidlandScoobies before you start booking yourself in anywhere...

Thanks pal

salsa-king

have a look here... http://www.pwpro.co.uk/cars/vinyl-wrapping

stone chips I'd say it will give better protection than paint work as it's got a bit of 'give' to it.

wash like normal and dry off with micro fibre towel. Don't was it!! you can get a quick detail spray for mat finish wraps.. I'm going to look into that




DM1
who did your side stripe?

DM1

I got mine done in county down N.I. Company called blackwater graphics. I would say you could order of them.

I did look into getting the whole car done in carbon but couldn't get a match with real carbon bit and bobs on the car.

Yes Duncan mapped my 08 STI back in 2009, very happy with the results, gave me piece of mind over the oe map and never missed a beat a the time I owned the car.

ericooper

Oh sounds good, what area is he based? What power did you run? Seems a gd price if it produces a gd safe map for my car, thats better than the oem, he seems well regarded here and on midland scooby after a bit of research, thanks

Duncan's very mobile

He travels all over so sure he can get to you when he has some more business in your area.

I was running approx 345bhp with ppp backbox, deres centre pipe, second cat delete, cosworth replacement filter and a ZeroSports intake pipe, but for me it was more about the safer map.

Hi guys,

Dont know if this is a bad sign but was driving last night and noticed i had a flat spot in the power band at around 5500RPM for a few miliseconds then it picked back up again. By the end of the journey it was back to normall and was ok this morning too. Has anyone else had this?

sparkey67

had a ride up to see Rob for another oil change today another 4000miles in 3 months & got front splitter off his old front end fitted when I was there & great service as always !! had a nice ride back over via newcastleton & keilder on way home &

Can anybody help me I need some new brake pads all round on my 08 wrx. Anybody have any ideas whats good

crsbugeye

I had mine done by Simon @ Jolly Green Monster (also very mobile)who is also a very respected mapper and has got mine running at 353 BHP and 392 ft/lbs with a fully decatted H&S and a Pro R back box and a k&n panel filter and runs very nice and much improved over the standard map

crsbugeye

I phoned crossroads Subaru to see if I could get this deal and they said a big fat NO and could not even get close to this and wanted £250 so I am now looking at the chargespeed splitter,
Any body had one of these fitted?

DM1

Ferodo DS2500 are the ticket. Contact GODSPEED brakes of the site.

EBC NDX pads were good - I don't normally like EBC pads but these were good.
Godspeed again.
Ask Ian for advice there.
