Morning all

 

moooooooorning

 

Hows everyone doing. Whats everyones plans.

Give me a shout if anyone wants 20% off at matalan. I get discount lol.

 

A-plan wanted £9000
Other than it's been 2k upwards, compared to 1500 last year is a big jump plus now having our own place now and all the extra expense of that is making it difficult

I think I might have it sorted though, fingers crossed

 

Car has been in Thwaites.

Finally got a new clutch now, plus a load of other things. Top service as usual

 

Why such an increase?

 

Thats about right because of the price increases going on. Your insurance is meant to be going down each year but it seems to be going the other way.

And they wonder why people drive illegaly.

 

Pretty sure he's about the same age as me, and I pay a lot less...

 

How old are you guys. Oh and as I found out a few days ago litteraly the whole of Birmingham has been blacklisted very few insurance companies will even bother giving you a quote.

 

I'm 23. Had my STi since I was 19 and insurance has come down every year.

It's not all of Birmingham.. but certain parts are.

 

bloody hell i couldnt get my scoob insured till i was 30 and i lie in a village in the middle of know were mind you they only just got color tv here lol

 

I paid £800 for my Scoob all mods declared with Keith Michaels, that's in a dy9 postcode and I'm 27 but was 26 at the time of quote.

 

£550 and I'm 25

 

I had 2 other scoobys previous to this one too I caught the bug early!

 

Coming soon, WMI Cups/Mugs £3 each

 

When i had my wagon i couldn't get a quote lower than 5 grand an the highest was 26 1/2 lol it was only a m reg impreza not a lambo. An the mad thing was i was going to use my mates x5 while he was in Iraq an got quoted a grand

 

I'll have a couple

 

I'm 24 mate I have no idea why such an increase but as Keith Michaels and the like won't touch me as I'm the wrong side of 25. I know my change of address put it up slightly but the excuse the insurance companies are giving is that there have been rises in the industry by about 60%, even my thatcham cat 1 alarm is barely making a slight bit of difference.

This January will be one years experience on the impreza plus one more years no claims bonus too

 

dy9 is one of the best in the dy area, I've gone from dy9 to dy6 so that hasn't helped even though my dy6 is way nicer than the dy9 the car was kept at before

 

Bloody bham street rats

 

 

Kosta WOW, your only 23! That must have been some paper round you had!

 

Morning

 

Hi all.

 

Hi,

I'm having crisps sandwiches for lunch.

Shaid

 

You do live on the edge.

 

I'll have one of them for work!

Haha first job was stacking shelves in Sainsbury's mate! I loved it, I was always doing overtime.

 

My first job was cleaning the black bits off the floor of my local pharmacy. I hated it

 

What did I tell ya about dyno figures?!

If your car is 400ftlb of torque on the standard VF I will eat my own foot!

Based on your "other" dyno graphs, your peak boost was not that much imo and I suspect this is where Bob has made the major changes (at the very least).

As long as you're happy though that's the main thing..... just forget the flaming dyno graphs! lol

The best way to measure performance is to do acceleration timed runs. I have a fair bit of data on how your model of Spec C "could" perform in this area, based on my original Spec C set-up on the OEM 2ltr (which was pretty much at the tops of its game at the time for the spec).

**** what a power graph says.... I want to know if the car actually is quicker on the road. An acceleration test will quickly highlight this.

I can bring my EcuTEK logging gear with me at a future WMI event, when the weather picks up and we can find out how your car performs if you wish. Don't worry, the acceleration run is in one gear and from a rolling start..... perfectly safe on the car.

 

Cheers Shaun, may take you up on that offer bud, its certainly quick on the road now

Maybe we could do some WMI group logging for charity on on airfield next year..........


Afternoon all
