My Scooby
Well ive been on here a while now and havent really posted up anything bout my car apart from a few pics in the new members bit so i thought it was about time i did lol,
i decided to go back to a scoob basically because i was getting annoyed at myself with not being able to drive the rex out of fear of it blowing a waterseal or popping a tip, so in the end even though it was nice to look at i wanted a car i could actually drive here she is when i picked her up http://i211.photobucket.com/albums/b...obypics037.jpg http://i211.photobucket.com/albums/b...obypics033.jpg http://i211.photobucket.com/albums/b...obypics034.jpg after just being happy driving again i decided to get a couple of bits first up was replacing the tatty gearknob, on went a nice new one from cheam subaru http://i211.photobucket.com/albums/b...yVTR/019-4.jpg then set about de restricting her so on went the induction kit and was just waiting for the exhaust to come http://i211.photobucket.com/albums/b...yVTR/017-6.jpg i ordered a set of sti strut braces front and rear, theve been fitted but havent got any pics managed to get the dv i wanted from jap performance, but im slowly going off it, ive been told it can be adjusted but still trying to find out how http://i211.photobucket.com/albums/b...yVTR/018-1.jpg still waiting for the exhaust so i got a set of sti lights and took the badges off, i did like the "subaru" badge but it was all scratched and parts were faded before http://i211.photobucket.com/albums/b...yVTR/015-4.jpg after http://i211.photobucket.com/albums/b...yVTR/016-3.jpg then i swapped the wheels, the gold ones looked ok but i wanted a set of darker ones before http://i211.photobucket.com/albums/b...yVTR/043-3.jpg after http://i211.photobucket.com/albums/b...yVTR/045-4.jpg finally the exhaust turned up so on it went http://i211.photobucket.com/albums/b...yVTR/104-2.jpg next i got some bits for the front so they were test fitted to make sure they were ok then got them ready for spraying http://i211.photobucket.com/albums/b...yVTR/023-3.jpg Finally got them sprayed and on, the colour match is abit out but im happy with it for the time being http://i211.photobucket.com/albums/b...ndyVTR/090.jpg http://i211.photobucket.com/albums/b...ndyVTR/092.jpg next was the lights, got rid of the orange indicators and got some clear ones, and with a massive thanks to chunk, got a set of black crystal front lamps before http://i211.photobucket.com/albums/b...ndyVTR/091.jpg after http://i211.photobucket.com/albums/b...yVTR/106-1.jpg then bought a set of 22b vents so got them sprayed and on, hers how she looks now http://i211.photobucket.com/albums/b...yVTR/102-1.jpg http://i211.photobucket.com/albums/b...ndyVTR/112.jpg http://i211.photobucket.com/albums/b...yVTR/103-2.jpg http://i211.photobucket.com/albums/b...yVTR/098-1.jpg thats it so far as for future plans ive allready got a set of cusco antiroll bars in the garage ready to go on and got to do some other bits like tints, colour code the side skirts and spats then get a bigger spoiler. After that ill be looking to get some more power but that can wait for a little bit but the next major thing or things will be a new ecu and possibly a new turbo :drive: |
Looking much better than you started....well done!

Thought its time for a long over due update so here goes
a few pics of of the front and rear strut braces front http://i211.photobucket.com/albums/b...yVTR/034-3.jpg Rear http://i211.photobucket.com/albums/b...yVTR/037-5.jpg The front was easy to fit just a case of six bolts but the rear one was a bit of a pig to do Then the cusco anti roll bars were put on by faney http://i211.photobucket.com/albums/b...yVTR/027-1.jpg Then the de-tangoing was fully finished thanks to chunk http://i211.photobucket.com/albums/b...yVTR/035-4.jpg |
Now for the more recent goodies
i fitted my hks dumpvalve but after a while it was getting on my nerves it was just too loud and going off too early, it was also leaking boost, so i traded it for a blitz one and that was worse, i virtually had no boost and it wanted to stall everytime i let off, so i bit the bullet and bought a new forge one http://i211.photobucket.com/albums/b...yVTR/033-4.jpg Feels and sounds alot better but im thinking i need to get a stiffer spring as boost seems to drop off after a while Next up is some chrome goodies http://i211.photobucket.com/albums/b...yVTR/029-3.jpg http://i211.photobucket.com/albums/b...yVTR/030-2.jpg And over the weekend i fitted my oil catch tank space was a little tight but it only took around half hour to do http://i211.photobucket.com/albums/b...yVTR/036-5.jpg Next i fitted an earth kit havent noticed much differance but it looks good http://i211.photobucket.com/albums/b...yVTR/032-3.jpg Also found ive got a boost leak from the intercooler pipe so got a nice replacement of ebay still got to fit it but hopefully ill get round to doing it during the week http://i211.photobucket.com/albums/b...yVTR/039-3.jpg At japbash i picked up a sticker for the boot thanks to mr worzel :razz: http://i211.photobucket.com/albums/b...yVTR/026-8.jpg And thats about it really.................................just got to fit my last goodie http://i211.photobucket.com/albums/b...yVTR/041-2.jpg http://i211.photobucket.com/albums/b...yVTR/040-3.jpg Also got some more bits on the way, picked a fight with ebay and the credit card came off abit worse so hopefully the last bits will turn up soon :-P |
Earth kit looks interesting, a little different to the norm?

Andy, what jetting and are you looking at progressive controller for Nos, got a couple of books if you want a read.
Have a Wizard of Nos system sitting in the shed, also know a guy running 2x10lb bottles with 400bhp boost. Blows both bottles in a day.:twisted::twisted::twisted: |
Nice one Andy. I've not got round to taking pics of the same mod we have both done...

But the shop i got the parts from is absolutly superb, they were really friendly on the phone and actually sounded like they wanted to help, postage time was excellent too |
Heres a pic of the drift charm i know its not really a drift car :twisted:yet:twisted: still on the look out for a dccd but havent had any luck as such yet, one came up for £500 and that included everything including the wireing but at the time i didnt have the £££ so still looking, its deffinatly on the cards for next year coz i really miss going side ways
http://i211.photobucket.com/albums/b...yVTR/003-2.jpg |
Gotta love the charms
As for side ways, wait til winter kicks in :yeah: :drive: :acid: |
Stupid question but what is a dccd? Does it allow you to distribute power to front or rear wheels etc?
