Firstly and massively to Pat, for the many many long hours he's put in, both mapping and solving various mechanical issues, he has the patience of a Saint.
Also to Mark(R16ket) for all the advice, parts and help, Tim and Adam for encouraging me to spend far too much money
Pete Croney, Paul and Kraig at Scoobysport, Stuart, Paul and Paul ex-scoobysport (Again great patience/help by all, I have learnt so much at the place over the last two years!)
Salsa King for all the stickers
Dyney for his expert electrical fitting skills
And all the various other suppliers who I've bought from.
Everyone else on Scoobynet for contributing to Forums from where I've also learnt so much. Ta!

And lastly I'd like to thank my wallet, for being so generous!!!

Mate, still looks good!!

When are you re-doing the mesh?

Oh and some gold wheels would look good! (I never thought I would ever say that!!! )

Oh and.... you didn't mention trying to chase a certain BHP figure, that turned out to be 20bhp more than you remembered???

Looking good mate, catch up at Bolney!

*vrrrooooom..... VRRRRROOOOOMMMMM..... pop.. pop.. pop.. BAAAANNNG!!!* (Cue cheering crowd!!! )

Bhp figures due on 18th May at Well Lane. Unfortunately I had a missfire problem when on the rollers a week or so ago

[but should be more than the 374bhp that Andy Tang never actually got LOL}

Looking good.... forgot on the spec to say you have a MY97/98 inlet manifold .

It'll be interesting to see you at well lane. Weird that mine's a MY93 WRX and the reg is almost the same (before i got a private plate).

One interesting engine spec - but the front end NEEDS TO GO! I'm sorry mate, it's just totally fubaring the look of your car.

Yeah mate, Looks real nice, Except the front bumper! No offence but with the sliver mesh and that it kinda looks like a botch job that some nova boy has done. From the side the bumper looks pretty good but not from the front, I think that is the only thing that lets it down on looks!

Other than that it looks fantastic! Gr8 job!

I have to admit the shape of the bumper does look rather wierd in the first pic

Boyracer Halfords-esq mesh to be replaced by some serious toughened stainless steel stuff very soon.

Cheers T-L forgot about the Inlet manifold

Oi, John, Nooo!



Don't blame me, I didn't force you to spend the money

It will work, especially now I've generously let you have Pat back

Hey mate, the car looks ace.

Looks much much better in the pics than in the flesh JOKE

Looks just as aggressive & mean.

Also looks like its been in a fight (missing a tooth)

Catcha later dude.
