Hi all

As per earlier post, i now have the first scoob in my life.

It is a 1998 R reg 2.0 WRX.

Just brought it back home and the brakes feel spongy and there are a few rattles here and there.

I am in Cannock, Staffs. Any ideas who i can take it to to be looked at professionally ?

Cheers

PS
That sound and acceleration is, well WOW

Not to sure in the West Mids but East Mids you've got (off the top of my head):

Roger Clark Motorsport - Leicester area.
Scoobymania (think they are called Area 51 now) - Leicester area.
TSL motorsport - Keyworth, Nottingham area.
Tracktive - Melton Mowbray.

All have websites .

Wolfie.

You could try Chevron in Stafford mate. They work on rally cars and big bhp cars and they look after a lot of the ssc (staffs scooby crew) cars including rebuilds.
Lots of the ssc boys have good things to say about them. I personally do not have much experiene using them though.

JRS Motorsport (small but excellent outfit) look after my Impreza.

100% personal recommendation for service, quality and price.

Great bunch of guys who really know what they are doing.

JRS usually have a number of Group A and N Imprezas in the workshop, together with some Group 4 Escorts and 240Zs.


PM me if you want contact details.

Forester Subaru - Subaru Parts, Subaru Spares, Subaru BreakersThese boys are EX Subaru people.


Tell them I sent you & they'll tell you they can't make a living @ these prices!

Good luck.
