Haha yeah that was me, suffering from horrid understeer. New tyres needed and a lack of fuel so just gave it a little boot from the roundabout not a bad car for 116k miles. Are there any local meets around this area ?

I sure will, there great cars and as much as i love mine, im letting her go, got the tuning bug again so after a newer sti, more power and a bit more after a few mods

Think thats what its called, the guy that works there is sound and as im a mechanic i know if there trying to rip me off, he is pretty cheap, got drop links done for £15 i supplied the parts, so only charged labour. And not a min of an hour like most places quoted !!!!

i never got chance, i was off for 2 weeks and went home to the lakes, rained every bloody day lol and all my tools are at home so when im back down here im limited 400bhp thats pushing the engine a lot. if it is at that it will have some shiney parts fitted. mines 239bhp so happy with that. i'll be happy with 330bhp to much lag is bad for roads in the lakes lol i'll keep my eyes for it mines got a private reg T20 AWD i think we should get a mini meet and drive out sorted ? i missed the lakes hoon
