If he had an sti with more weight and slower acceleration he wouldn't of crashed.
It's because of the blistering 0-60 time that's caught him out and caused the crash.

 

Yeah but that's another idiot who does 180's standing at traffic lights ...and we all know that clown

 

I wish, mate


Well, depending on which news story you want to believe, Walter is either on the run from the law, in police custody, in hospital, or he just doesn't want to talk to us any more.


Walter, if you're reading this, I'm sure we'd all be interested to hear an update. Did you take the car to a specialist?

 

He's not been on line since Jan 5th......

 

Ah, what a cracking Monday morning read, glad I got up to spead with this! love it!

 

Is this still going on??? hahaha!

Thats a great find, about him posting the exact same issue 3 years ago!?!?!

 

Yeh last time we heard from walter he said he was taking his car out for a quick "spin" hope he is alright.

 

Took 10 seconds too, they were 2 separate posts nearly a year apart, one from 3 and a half years ago and the other closer to 4 and a half Pmsl

 

the bit about jay allen's evo got me going

 

maybe he took it to scooby clinic....

 

the car is still here, as am i. the steering is worse than ever, though it doesn't deter me from using it since noone seems able to fix it.

i am thinking about getting rid of it, but need advice on how. i payed my 2 bucks, since the mods will get their knickers in a twist if i post in the general area...

Walter! You're alive!!!

 

For Sale, Spec C.


1 careful owner, lots more that weren't.

 

Hes back from hospital!!!

 

He's out on bail.

 

Just read the whole thread, and UC's post #113 is the funniest thing I've seen on here since PSL's classic 'EJ oil change procedure' post.

Pure genius.

 

... As already pointed out, this bit was just inspired:

 

Why thank you, kind sir! But unfortunately I can't take any credit. I merely copied and pasted it from a newspaper's website... honest!

 

I genuinely feel sorry for Walter. This car is worse than the Evo I have problems with!

 

so... got new steering rack. and problem is still 100% there. expected nothing less.

the steering was tighter for a few days, but i could feel the main problem was definitely still there. i had the steering "tightened" (whatever that entails) a few times before and it always worked itself loose within a few days in exactly the same way.

so, what now?

what did the mechanic do to "tighten" the steering up (even though it only lasts a few days)

 

scrap it

 

^^^^^ Agreed.

 

i'd scrap it myself with a sledgehammer but i still need to buy another car with money i don't have.

can't help but think the solution may well be something costing £100, but instead i need to scrap a spec C because the mechanic can't find the problem.

a problem obviously exists. i should just pour thousands down the drain?

 

Your other thread gave you loads of contacts and advice about scrapping it including expected values etc.


Why you continue to post is beyond me. The car is obviously shagged.


No offence meant.

 

So tubby tommy signs up with a new account today and all of a sudden Walter is back.
Ticktock ticktock

lol

 

Banny, you need a new Impreza project! Fancy a tidy carefully maintained Spec C?????

 

so what happens when my next car develops a steering problem? bin that too?

my old car had this type of steering problem too actually - which is the reason i got rid of THAT car too... if you can believe this... so i'd like to get to the ****ing bottom of this!

the most tragic thing is, if i scrap this spec C i will be looking to get another scooby - which no doubt will be heavier and slower

 

LOL


Sooo..... the common item between both your cars with the same issue was.......


The driver maybe?
