thanks for the kind words guys.....yea DAVE i was at one of the ACE CAFE meets bout a month or 2 back.....didnt know you were there.....i knew there was the black GRB parked next to mine but i couldnt find the owner.....the car is an import from the US.....but we'll chat next time i go out there......

the better half - thats a nice set of wheels you picked out.....i see your going for the concave look.....another option i think you should look at is the ADVANS in a 18x9 +29 you'd be more then happy w/ the look of the car.....the only mod to that is to roll the rear fenders and on the plus side of that is you can use your stock tires and not have to spend money on tires, and if you could fit some 255 later down the line if you'd want......but depends on what you want really.....

orthochris - im glad your keeping your STi.....you just have to remember when subaru built this car they were shooting for the overall customers satifaction, not the enthusiast.....so they soften bout everything on the new shape STI.....so all the upgrade will definitely bring the STi alive.....and all the mods you do will make you w/ your car all over again.....

Where are all you guys buying your whiteline suspension components from?

Also regarding Litchfields, do they have their own rolling road or are they still having this sort of work carried out at Powerstation?

Been looking at suspension & tuning mods, could be the websites are out of date just a bit confusing, thanks for any info

hi Paul, think Litchfields supply the Whiteline stuff in their packages. If not Demon tweeks, Dave Featherstone were still doing discounts on Whiteline this year. Just mention scoobynet, usually worked out vat free for me on stuff i've had in the past.

Worth giving us a call on Whiteline parts as I'm sure we can beat any quote and most GRB parts are always in stock
online shop will be updated soon with more parts including pre-cut rear light film.
All remapping and performance upgrades are done in-house.

Nice to meet you yesterday Lee - yours is a great example, loving the prodrive grill mod.

LordH & Rob,

Sorry I didn't get to meet you guys in person - we got to Scoobyteknix at 4.30, but pretty soon the kids started eating the dash trim so we went off to get fish & chips in Fleetwood. When we got back it was time to start the convoy

Starting to lose count of new hatches on this thread now - think we have achieved critical mass?

Hi mate, was good to chat y/day. Thanks for the comment, got mine after seeing Robs on his. Like you say tho, black on yours i think would suit with your dark GT1's, stealthy.
Think we must have at least 9 or 10 hatches now, think afew people are changing their opinions of them now. Certainly got some really good comments last night through the lights.

See you on a tunnel run soon mate

Default It looked a bit too clean for my liking

But he had spent a bit of cash on it!


And another shot of the rear suspension - any idea as to what make the arms are?


Sounded great (really want that exhaust.

Hi all.

I have a bone-stock, totally unmolested '08 UK supplied WRX in blue.

I don't have any handy pics of it on this laptop, but I'm sure you all know what they look like anyway.....

I do have a driveability issue with it as posted here.....

https://www.scoobynet.com/general-te...y-problem.html

If any of you fellow '08/'09 owners have had issues, I would very much appreciate it if you could have a quick read and let me know if your dealer (or, indeed, anyone else) was able to sort it.....

Thanks in advance

Amanda

Mine was the dark grey 08 STI parked over near the entrance (could not get into the main car park bit as I arrived late)

Post up on here or PM me when you are next going to the Ace Cafe for a Subaru meet and I will meet you there for a chat and a beer, along with any others of here that can make it
