Moving along quite nicely so far. ADAC recovery sorted, car booked in for oil/filter change and check over. Health insurance sorted. Just Euros and track day cover to sort......So long as my trip to SMD doesn't throw up anything nasty!

I'm getting my rear brakes sorted as the current WRX 2 pots have seized and aren't up to the job. Brembos going on, new discs/pads and bigger handbrake shoes to match the larger hub on the STI.
And then the car should be ready apart from a wash!

Surely taking the scoob would be far easier? But I know you like a challenge......
My list is easier - hire car for the ring - done

Concentrate on the most important mate. Don't need a radio, just a cigarette lighter to charge the satnav. Dent in door doesn't really matter. Maybe give SMD a bell if you need a hand - much quicker to do this stuff with a workshop and ramps!

Lol, I've driven some supercharged ones and turbo is the way to go. 450bhp turbo kit is awesome and I can only compare it to my mates old 450bhp evo7.
One day it may happen, reason I'm taking golf is scoob ha a we problems at moment and I wanted to get golf up and running this year, Nurburg gives me the green light to do it. I love both cars and to be honest they are two completely different cars, I think compliment each other. Scoob will always be my serious track toy.

Glad the scoob is ok- worried for a while that you may have had a serious issue with it!

Errr, nothing like last minute but does anyone have a working set of single pot rear calipers?
That will teach me to check the pads on both sides and not just one and assume they'd both be the same

Late night in mates garage last night, think we finished at 10.30!
Bad evening, everything going wrong, couldn't press new poly bushes into wishbones and damaged them slightly, got them in in the end, they will have to do. Then steering rack bolts snapped, so had to drill out and retap. Put everything back together then realise front arb was on upside down, doh, all off again to swap. Feeling knackered today. But work must go on.
