    Picked her up from Abbey at 8.30am before heading home for a full clean to add the Rally stickers and sponsors!





    Shiny!

    And after almost 5 hours of applying stickers, she is finally ready!







    Can't wait for tomorrow!

    A joke that's going around the Ukraine...   Vladimir Putin, wanting to get on the good side of voters, goes to visit a school in Moscow to have a chat with the kids. He talks to them about how Russia is a powerful nation and how he wants the best for the people.    At the end of the talk, there is a section for questions. Little Sasha puts her hand up and says "I have two questions. Why did the Russians take Crimea? And why are we sending troops to Ukraine?"  Putin says "Good questions..." But just as he is about to answer, the bell goes, and the kids go to lunch.    When they come back, they sit back down and there is room for some more questions, another girl, Misha, puts her hand up and says  "I have four questions. My Questions are - Why did the Russians invade Crimea? Why are we sending troops to Ukraine? Why did the bell go 20 minutes early? And Where is Sasha?"

    Provisionally sold subject to collection on Tuesday, he Is also taking the wheel spacers for the car so they will not be offered separately unfortunately.  I still have some other parts for sale being the brand new Tomei stainless overpipe and the brand new titanium Tomei front pipe/decat.  I'll shortly be listing my HKS Hipermax IV GT coilovers so keep your eyes peeled

    JamesP1991 got a reaction from beexpwebsa in Fuel gauge   
    Noticed this a few times so thought I'd ask the question..

    Pulled up from the drive home from work just now and noticed my fuel light was on long before the needle has even reached the red part of the reserve.



    I have never been brave enough to have played chicken with the fuel gauge, but when the car is switched off I do notice the needle goes a very far way down past the reserve mark.

    Why is it then that the low fuel light comes on so early when apparently I have a huge portion of the tank left according to the gauge?

    It's obviously nothing too important, but the thought popped into my head and so I thought I'd ask

    When do people on here feel the need to fill up and how low do you go? How far do you normally get in terms of miles in the reserve tank??

    I keep it on everything on in the wet, sport mode in the dry when I find a nice road and then everything off when I find a nice open space to have a play around  
     
    Don't see the point of risking yourself and car on narrow roads with traffic etc, without having some assistance there.

    Vents do look good, although I am definitely settled on the TRD fins, need to save up a bit for some carbon examples

    That's the plan I just need to get a few issues with the kit sorted next week. I'll be extending the stripe a bit, but not sure where to. Going to have a play with it really.

    JamesP1991 reacted to STEVO9000 in Anyone running BC Racing BR series coilovers?   
    Well we have some good news.

    Apex confirmed there'd been a series of complaints regarding this issue which had triggered a factory redesign of the rear units.

    These were tested last week and confirmed as a fix! From what Apex advise me it is a change in the unit allowing the OE top mount to be used instead. From what I've read, this happened on the coilovers they released for the Impreza's also.

    The units are on order now and they expect to receive them on the 27th, so I should have them back shortly after to refit along with some Super Pro rear camber adjustable bushes I picked up from Fensport.

    So if anyone has their rear BC's knocking, get in touch with Apex and hopefully they'll resolve yours too

    I like to think this forum is a little different to others on the net. We actually arrange driving & social events so it's a nice friendly close group of people who you will actually meet. You can't hide behind a username forever    So everyone plays nice, there are no big ego's on here which will put you down to better themselves.

    The compressor should be in the black bag with the cans of foam, to my understanding, the can attaches to the compressor and you use it to pump the tyres up with foam when you get a puncture
