  1. Yep yep, glad you understand where im coming from aha. An Elise is one of my dream cars, prices are on the up and up now though
  2. Not a problem. I brought it all together and i fitted the rear ARB first as it was a quick job, then drove it for a week or so before i had chance to fit everything else. Fitting the Rear arb definatly dials out the natural understeer newage impreza have, although i think pound for pound ARB's made the biggest impact along with the huge leap in castor the anti lift kit gave. If i am being 110% honest with you, one of the main reasons im selling the car is because its to capable now. As in it just seems to go around any corner no bother, as if i could get out and the car would drive itself. Which as a guy who enjoys the act/challange of driving and becoming a better driver, seems abit dull. Which alot of people think im mad for as this thing seriously sticks like glue EVERYWHERE. If you want a daily driver, fast road, occasional trackday then an impreza with this or simlar spec list would be amazing. I have always been into "the raw driving experiance" (im a snob) So yes its an amazing car but just doesnt tick my strange boxes aha
  3. Some how I missed out the Swiss passes...Not sure how but still At this point I had acquired a huge water melon and named it Oliver (R.I.P)
  4. I went on a euro trip eariler this year that some of you may be interested in? This may not follow on very well as its just copied and pasted from another forum build up thread-- So as I mentioned in my last post we had a euro trip planned. The Original plan was for my “Better half†and I to go over in the Pig but due to her work she could get the time off but still urged me to go (what a gal:notworthy) I was still planning on going even though the cost would be alot higher on my own but in the end one of the guys dropped out and my mate Aid had a spare seat going in the white Supra so I jumped in with him and halved the cost. Now prior to the trip I had purchanced my first Gopro in the form of the Gopro session. I tried it out prior to the trip to make sure it worked, connected to my phone and did everything it should. Unfortunatly pretty much as soon as we got off the eurotunnel it got ridiculously hot and totally froze (actually burned me) Then wouldn’t turn off until it ran out of battery. So I am missing a lot of photos and vids I would have of this trip but ill add some of the ones I have that the others took. I have some food allergys so I was an experience for me trying to find stuff to eat with all the driving involed with the trip and miles coverd it was a challenge at petrol stations and truck stops. I ate Salmon or steak nearly everyday in one form or another and survived on fruit and crisps inbetween meals. (Salon in Dijon and Lake Comois best, trust me in a professional :norty: ) The Trip consisted of Night One: Holiday Inn Folkestone. Boring waiting to get going. But a great Hotel Night Two: Dijon, France. Great Food, Beautiful buildings (im the Weirdo in the red cap :Whatever_) Night Three: Hotel Columbus Monte Carlo, Monaco . Bloody expensive, VERYclean, got told off for have my shirt off (Seemed like the british thing to do) also the zoo there is awesome :Suspiciou Night Four & Five: B+B Hotel Como ,Italy. The hotel we stayed in wasn’t the best or the area but Lake Como itselfit absolutely beautiful. Food was awesome Night Six -Nine: Ferienpark Nürburgring. As youd expect AWESOME When we got to the ring I was so excited to get in one of the Rent4ring swifts as id heard such good things. And it didn’t disappoint, loved driving this little purple berry round the ring, it genuinely supprised us all how well it performed. UNFORTUNATLY (I see a pattern of Gopros F##king me over) I borrowed a friends Gopro and halfway through my first lap the gopro fell off the roof, the second lap it ran out of battery, third lap it stopped recording half way round for no reasonand then I gave up bothering. So I have no idea BTG times or anything (not that I was going for BTG times but would be nice to have known) Rented a BBQ Hut Night Ten: Belgium. We found theroads to be aweful but the people were nice. No pics of here at all though. After Leaving the ring I was very down and instantly wanted to go back (queue Cheers theme tune) When I got back to the UK I knew next time I would 100% bein the scooby next time I/We went to the ring (2017) and I needed to start pulling my finger out and getting it to a decent spec so It would handle the Green Hell better than its current state (more orless stock:nopity:)
  5. Would love to see some pics if you can as we're all petrolheads on here. Guide on "how to add pics to the forum" here: http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/103472-how-to-add-your-photos-to-the-forum/ Awesome thanks for the link it sorted me out í ½í±í ¼í¿» Impreza's spec is (copied from forsale advert aha)-- As claimed by Subaru and Prodrive the PPP package fitted to this WRX boasts 270BHP from standard, 45 more than a standard WRX and 348Nm / 258lbs-ft of torque at 3200rpm, 0-60 in 4.8 seconds and a 13.7 second standing quarter.
