I know people who have had a good experience and people who have had the opposite, Gav has been around the car scene for a while

Thanks for clarifying Gaz, summed it up exactly.

Hawkeyewrx, the post would have been less conspicuous if it wasn't your first one and you let us know what you had done.

Understood pal. Just saw the thread and thought I would try and assist.

A less concise approach would likely have been more helpful in the context and it's honestly nothing suspicious!

Here's to more posts!

Thanks Michael

I used the Speed Factory for my last scoob (blob eye). It had quite a few mods but Speed Factory did a new strut, tein springs and fitted my Nur Spec.

Sold that in January and had a brief spell away from Scoobs before realising my mistake and buying a hawk eye.

Just getting started on mods; coilovers, magnex 6x4 backbox, K&N panel filter, front splitter, drilled discs and mintex pads. Thats is all so far but enough to empty my wallet when combined with a cam belt service (inc tensioners).

Next up is new wheels. Hopefully rota drifts to replace the current BK racing efforts.
