Default scoobyclinic - full goemetry set up

the wife & i took a trip to scoobyclinic yesterday to have a full geometry set up done on my03 sti uk ppp. the front tyres had lasted about 7000 miles, with the offside front being the worst - worn on both edges. the car also felt light & skittish to drive.
the job was done, the bill paid & off we went. i thought i had driven off in someone elses car, what a difference, the steering was precise with a lot more positive feedbac through the steering wheel.

top job scoobyclinic

one thing though as we drove into what seemed the middle of nowhere the wife said "i hope this is not a wind up - you know one of these places where they knock you on the head & nick your car"

cheers again & hope to see you again

Glad you're happy with it mate, must get a geom set up on mine sorted after Xmas.

Cold up there yesterday wasn't it! (I was the chap with the very steamy white classic STi! )

daft lad - hope you didnt get any strange looks on your way home with all that steam coming from under your bonnet - the look on your face when the mechanic came back after the test drive and made a run for the pressure hose was a picture - hope yours is now ok - may see you down at the clinic again i think i fancy a remap or something to get a bit more power

Its absolutely fine now mate yes, think all that steam was the last of the antifreeze burning off the header wrapping, and yes it was just a bit unnerving for a few moments!

Full decat and remap on yours would certainly add a few extra horses mate!
