been an got my my p1 splitter tonight being painted weekend an fitted

 

WMI + SCOOBYS = super summers, super tunnel runs, super BBQ's

need we say more H ???

 

Here's a Video from last night i did with Mr Fin as the test drive by car, trying to get the sound sorted for the tunnel runs, kept the camera in the car as it was raining, the youtube video is crap picture quality, just did a low res as i was only interested in the sound.

the first 1-1/2 mins is with just the cameras internal mic, and the second half is with the external mic tucked behing the rear numberplate to eliminate wind noise, its clearly to close to the exhaust and lots of road noise, im going to make a "dead cat" for the mic and see how that goes, things are moving in the right direction.

Afternoon all

 

Well Subaru went today so though i would just pop on here and say thanks for making me welcome to the group and for the help you lot gave, its been much appreciated still got the vortex exhaust for sale so if you know of anybody who's after one point them my way ill pop back time to time

 

 

ignore that lol

 

You mean Doggles ;]

Nope.

 

Also, Mark, you need to work on your camo, I spotted you easily this evening, even in the dark

 

Morning all

 

Here me noooooooow

 

i keep sayiin that to the nipper when he puts his army outfit on lol.

 

right im gonna come right out and say this... i cant get to grips with API,s prices. they seem really really expensive. especially after phoning 3 other major scooby tuners to get quotes do some work to my car. its really frustrating cus there only up the rd in leamington and they do have great rep

 

Tried TDRacing in Warwick?

 

i havent ive tried keith at scooby projects in ledbury. api. scooby clinic. and lateral. im gonna try thwaites and TD. but to be fair keith at scoo projects looks like hes gonna get the jobs. best prices by a mile...

 

This request is for a ' full set ' of Superflex bushes to be fitted which cost £360.00 + VAT. To fit them all is 2 days work [ £360.00 per day + VAT as the rears are a real ball ache to do and the rear lower trunnion bolts [ the long ones ] can take forever to get out if seized.

Then it needs tracking £60.00 + VAT

It is also requested to supply 2 x alloy lower from arms from an STi £150.00 + VAT for a pair.

I don't think those prices unreasonable and as you all know, we are not in the habit of quoting to get a job and then increasing it because.............

Some you win, some you lose.

Good luck, David

 

dave i supplied my own ali arms. keith at scooby projects quoted exact same job for 550-600 depends on how easy the bushes came out including tracking drive in drive out. you quoted over 700 quid just for labour for taking bushes off ???? i can get the bush kit myself from rcm for 360 !!! where do you get off with 1200 quid for polybushing and tracking?? try pulling someone else pants down mate. i take it you dont like fair but true criticsm FYI 3 other companys were about 750 all in. youre supposed to be a WMI trusted trader mate?? pull the other one its got the finance payment for your rollin road on it...

 

and 175 quid for ali sti ali arms??? yeah maybe in 2001. 25 each on ebay. 100 quid for crystal light set.. i rest my case. favours abound @ API

 

No need to get rude. We quoted as we saw fit. It is not a nice job to do and done carefully takes time and patience. We are the same price for the bushes as RCM, so no overpricing there. We charge £48.00 + VAT for an hours labour. Which comes to more than £360.00 per day on an 8 hour day.

The rolling road was paid for in CASH in 2010 no finance here.............

You can exercise your right to take your car wherever you wish.

Like I said; good luck, no hard feeling from me.

David

 

lol whatever dave. you bang on how your fair priced you are,ive seen you do it in this very forum about engines. but the basic thing is your not. there are much cheaper alternatives. ive just shared the knowledge of my experience with you as a company with fellow subaru owners. im offended because i find the wmi trusted trader thing a bit of a joke from you. no favours from you anywhere.

 

Steve move on please.

If you dont like the prices then dont go there, simples, no need to b*tch about it mate

cheers H
