Hi Catmeat

The wagon stand is the first ever National Wagon meet being held at the Northern Big One or NBO read the info here ..http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/showthread.php?t=499194

The NBO is being organised by LordHarding and the vision of us both was to have all the Wagons on a club stand like you see for the P1's RB5's etc rather than seeing them hidden away at the back of a regional stand. It was about time the wagons stood up to be counted... ## Year of the Wagon ##

We hope to have all models and colours represented including the rarer models like the STI and the SA .. so your more than welcome post up or pm me if you are interested in showing your wagon on the club stand. We hope to get some exposure for the magazines, we have a logo designed, some stickers being printed, wagon stand tshirts for the day and flags for the stand.

 

Smiles Ive just sent you a PM requesting accomodatoion for the Sat night

for lady Lourdes and me .


So we can get the first Wagon Ball sorted !!!

Dont think it is necessay to have black dinner jacket and bow tie this year but we will look at that for future years

Looking at the list for the ball there should be 14 of us ?

So we will plan out the after dinner drunken speeches and share the M&S scooby cake and Wine .

As the ladys are at the Ball we wont be able to sneek off to the wagonn lap dancing club un fortunely .


Will anyone have a lap top computer ?
as its tradional to post the last post on scoobynet to wish everyone goodnight and a safe journey also the first post on scoobnet on the NBO day itself

should be a good night




2006 YEAR OF THE WAGON

 

Just replied, willl get you booked in

Mrs smiles aka lady ruby says she has nor problems with us going to the Wagon lap dancing club, as long as the ladies can go to see the wagondales strippers

I can bring my laptop, but Internet connection will be a problem

 

Yummy, ScoobyCake for pudding

I made it 13

Do we want to take over the travelodge restaurant/ bar or travel further afield, was thinking we may want to keep the fleet clean for the morning.

 

I hope all the ladys of the wagons will be able to pick us up from the wagon booze up :

and i hope they

park sensible

dont kerb the wheels

let the turbo cool down

and polish the engine bays with electric toothbrushes

the perfect women :#

 

Would like to put the wagon forward for the show and shine, but our current wheels just won't do the business.

So, looking for some 17" wheels for about £200-300 and looking to sell mine, ideally would be STI 8/9 Gold ones to go with the theme, but anything considered at this point, must be immcaulate or pass for Show and Shine Standard.
Did have the money for a set of Rays or Tengs, but sadly the house purchase gobled that money so back to looking on ebay

Cheers

 

Try alan at As performance 01914103770 was ratching through his workshop on wed and saw some wheels

also ian at stan palmers Carlisle on 01228 525051 should have loads lying around

thinks are cheaper up north

 

hello catmeat, i'm pretty sure SA stands for Sports Altered, you can check here;

ian

 

How interesting. Just 10 mins down the road.

 

you should come along harvey...I forgot to ask yesterday which wagon are you bringing to NBO, blue or silver (i'm assuming the white one won't be finished)?

ian

 

Which siver??? There are two.

How is the car now you have had it on some back roads.?????????//

Might join you for a beer the night before if you give me a ring but only one if I am driving.

 

i only thought you have the sti v6...what's the other one?

i have its much nicer when powering out\through corners; feels much a smoother car, so its easier to press on...time for the VF (and blanket ), soon i think

i'll bell you when we get there and see if you are around...

 

What you been upto now

 

lol only following your lead ian i erm 'popped' round to see harvey yesterday and got my headers fitted

 

 

Blue STi 3 Wagon 335.5 bhp 333 ft lbs. standard ECU, turbo,injectors and air box. In Cars For Sale with spec.
Silver WRX 95 Wagon. Was 385-410 bhp 350 ft lbs plus, subject to what map and fuel. Just fitted STi heads and have a development programme. Want to try various things. It will produce big power by the end of the project.
STi 6 Wagon. Still 2 litre and when the development work is competed I expect to exceed 600 bhp.
These are in use daily.

I have another project car and engine build in hand but that is more long term and not on the road.

Ring me when you guys are close to Scotch corner and subject to being here, I will come down for a beer.

 

What a start at the wagon banquet a guest appearance by harvey and his super waggon .

looks like its going to be a good night .

 

I agree with Ian, Sports Altered

 

Crikey, busy on here today

Thought the Drought order was on posts also

 

Welcome

Would be interested to hear how easy this was, was this a wagon or saloon STI Donor.

Now there's an idea ...New Age STI 8/9 engine in my Wagon Anyine now if a salon STI engine will drop straight in and plumbing sorted

These engine transplants are popular with the Dub's and Pugs, we had an Mi16 dropped into our 205, like **** of the proverbial

 

 

Having some serious debating going on in the smiles household on where to get next with the DIY STi8 Wagon now we have all the comestic illusion complete

Decision A - Figure out and cost how much to drop in a Saloon STi8/9 engine.. is it even feasible

Decision B - keep with the WRX engine and tune, but at end of day its still WRX under the hood

Decision C - Flog it and buy an STi7 Wagon and have to live with an ugly duckling

Decision D - Flog it and buy a Classic STi Wagon

If decision C or D, anybody know of any STi wagons up for sale and who wants to upgrade to a new age

Your two penneth appreciated on all the above

 

Would have to change engine - engine wiring - ECU at least

 

Best solution would be to listern to Harvey at the Banquet and his recomandations on a 600 BHP wagon :

then if the engine goes pop then you can to a STi transplant


Problem solved the northern Wagon way .

 

Transplant an STi AND add the 600bhp

The Southern Wagon Way

 

Hi Harvey

What are your views on the feasability of dropping an STi 8/9 TypeUK Saloon engine into a UK MY04 WRX Wagon. Now I cant say I have ever seen that done yet, could be a first... is it even possible

Plus would need the extra stoppies at the front and rear off course, but thats not a big problem as would be a regular upgrade same as if tuned the WRX engine.

Much appreciated

 

Faster Wagons! Good stuff

 

 

oh yes, now i remember your comment about the wrx running 400bhpo with standard internals...doh

look forward to it Harvey

 

I'd have a drive of the bugeye and then a classic sti and then decide...two very different things to drive steve...THEN go see Harvey and make it really fly
