New wheels on now

Cheers simon (spivscooby) Top man

 

Nice looking wheels merlin,look better on a black car than a blue one imho

 

love them mate, pics dont do them justice.

only prob is i dont think i can fit lowering springs, as it is prob as low as it can bbe without causing me problems

was going to book it in next week...

the only thig i can do is pop out later when its quiet and go measure gap on a few speed bumps, and see how much ive got to play with

 

I DID NOTICE ON THE WAY HOME (bLOODY cAPS LOCK) that 78 on my speedo was 70 on my sat nav, thought everyone seemed to be going very fast

 

what profile are these mate, as they seem to fill the arches better than mine... mine are 215 35 18..

also do you have a centre pipe for sale, mines got a big hole in the bugger may need a back box as well as it is a slip together type

 

Merlin, my tyres are 205/45/17, but car sits lower due to the prodrive Bilstein suspension . I have just sold a centre section last week, but have a mint ninja 2 system in the for sale section.

 

no mate it ok cheers, i only need the ctr section... tut typical..

give me a bell if you come accross another mid section cheers chap.

 

Car looks ace now Dave.....
I wouldn't lower it anymore , otherwise that front splitters gonna cop it. and you dont want that.

its only about a month a go that you told us you didnt have the scoob anymore !!! and already youre changing your new one !!!

we're taking the legacZ in for Mot tommorow...... scary times???? last mot the notices were for two tyres that we have sorted out,ive got a sidelight to pop in first but you never know.

guess you saw the new date for the tunnel run , it wouldn't do all the scoobs out to play while the olympic flame is in the city , the gust of exhaust might "blow it out" !! and there will be an abundance of coppers.

 

lmao i know mate hahaha Cheers anyway gona leave it as it is, then prob put slightly bigger tyres on when these need changing - 45 instead of 35's that will help a bit... besides ive got other things i need to spend my cash on, want windows tinting oh and ive got a ruddy big hole in my exhaust must remember to book that in to get sorted....

gd luck with the mot mate, fingers crossed

hum.. loads of coppers is never good mate...

 

She passed , Yipee , now sadly she goes onto sorn and the Mazda comes out to play for the summer , but at least weve got a good unit ready for when the ungritted roads come back and my new snow tyres (ready for a foot deep) that havent even been on the road , sitting on subaru Ra lw alloys ready to go.
gotta get the mazda out of storage tonight after the winter , and checked over. new tax disc from June first. will miss the scoob. see you all soon . anybody heard anything about our chairman Rob?? is he standing down? and anything planned (tr?) for worcs?

 

Hi mate, so good and bad news then, good it passed, sad its off the road now till winter, tbh im not sure whats happening with the club mate, as i have said before i just havnt got the time to help rob atm as im putting 60 hrs a week in at work, so just dont have any spare time to myself, um.. thats not as good as it sounds btw, having to put more time in as the market is so slow now i need to do more to make the same wage hopefully will get better in time.
Will have a chat with Rob over the weekend for you and see what he wants to do.
Have a good summer mate and enjoy the mazda

Hi Mugs. I work on a Rescue unit there usually so I'm there at most events.

Hi,
that looks like a good day, i will be going to that.
i should be up there again for the midlands event at the end of the month so i will have to come over and say hi.

 

I'll be parked in the esses as normal at the Midland event.

 

Anyone had any dodgy dealings with a big South African called Mark Smit?

 

Now that name rings a bell

Tony

 

He's been taking people's cars away to tune/build engines and then fobbing them off for months or even years then going on the missing with there cars and or there engines,turbo's,ECU's etc I've been in contact with a few Subaru boys in Wales,Birmingham and Cheltenham and if you add it all up it comes to nearly £200,000!! He's had my Honda Integra DC2 JDM for 9 months now and I've had to involve the Police. Im now trying to find as many people as possible who have had dealings with this man and hand the info to the Police.

 

Better to Ask same question in Subaru general. I'm fairly sure about five to ten years ago he first popped up. Apparently worked, so he claimed, worked for Subaru WRC team.

He scammed quite a few around Brum and surrounding areas. loads of topics. Sounds ill the same guy.

IIRC IMHO

Are there any meets in Worcester still?

No I didn't go in the end. The one or two people that were going to go backed out and as I didn't know anyone else going gave it a miss.

 

Hi a worcestershire / herefordshire /glos /shrops/ west mids / anyone lucky enough to have a sccooob .
weve had a busy year , but finally got back to fixing up the Leggy this last couple of months .
new shox , subframe and rear brakes , some diff alloys waiting to go on soon. Lookin for a windscreen scooby logo sunvisor sticker , still need to check the front end and take her for Mot , then needs the cambelt replacing one weekend. Cant wait to get back on the road.
We looked at a outback H6 auto at the weekend, wow , but decided too much like driving a ship than a lightweight mota.and had a Impreza prefacelift last winter as a temp car, but decided to stick with the 2.0 GL.Mk3.
Decided that would like to get 54/05/55 reg Legacy 2.0/2.5 MANUAL with white leather and SUNROOF , prefer wagon as next purchase, px our Royal Violet?????

Looking forward to a meet-up sometime December/new year.
Drive safe friends.

Regards Sue+Jeff.

 

Well I'm back on the road I hope there are a few meets in the future look forward to seeing some of u guys
