Thanks mate yours will get there soon you'll see and I've been meaning to replace that plate I'll get onto it this weekend lol... Probs won't be worth selling mate seen as it's just a wrx with the upgrades... Will be worth more in parts unfortunately.

Cheers Jon, they are pricey mate for what they are read your thread where you debating if to get one or not... I'd wait till one comes up at a decent price and snap it up... Think people are asking too much for them recently... Seen one on eBay for £600

Not yet mate, looking to get a job closer to my new house soon so another Scooby could be on the cards. The new car is good though, 500 miles to a tank of diesel helps lol

Do miss the flat four rumble still.

Your not wrong mate, had two classics and a bugeye so far. If I get another it will have to be a hatch or a hawkeye. Seen a few already

Lol, I highly doubt that mate. But cheers anyway.
I'm good thanks, all quiet over the winter, Bombers been wrapped up since September and I've been working on the house and saving for our wedding.

So my list of things to do to it over the winter haven't happened and she's the same as when I put her away. Lol

Sounds good mate, pretty much the same here too waiting for the better weather to really get stuck in. Alyns building an engine for me too so looking forward to that aswell.

Look forward to the "bomber" coming back out though bet it's seemed like a life time hey.

Not at all really, haven't had time to miss it to be honest.

If I'm really honest it's a love/hate relationship as I want a 911 GT3 but can't afford one. So the bomber stays for now.

Hello again. So going 2.5 now I see. Has Frayz been influencing you by chance?
Out of interest, who fitted your top window spoiler for you?
I've had one sprayed up but am too scared to fit it myself, would rather have a pro do it and bolt it and bond it on instead of bond it on as I've heard some horror stories about some flying off when just bonded on.

Going for a meth map soon, hoping to crack 480 and that'll be it for me unless the engine goes pop!
Frayz - everyone looks cooler in a Scoob than a 911 mate, you'll only regret it if you sell her

I've had mine for 9 years this year and have wanted something new for a while.
I still have loads of ideas for mine but don't have the funds to implement them. Lol

Lol Frayz "bomber" has been quite an inspiration for me, it's perfect in every way. Going the 2.5 way as my cars never tracked and is just for fast road will be having one of Alyns cdb inserts to give me head room for the future if I ever decide to exceed 500

I had the spoiler fitted by a local garage... It's bolted in with riv nuts, no bond was used... Has been on a whole with no issues at all... A trace was used from a hawk to mark the holes to drill in the correct places.

Wow 480 would be lovely to get to, my initial aim is around 450/450 which from where I am now is a massive jump for me

Wish you could keep the "bomber" Frayz it's defo one of a kind. The gt3 is also lovely and am sure after 9 years a change for you will be refreshing

To be honest I prefer the JDM grill
