Right then as most of you are aware my engine is broken after a little outing at the Nurburgring GP circuit.

After sitting down and thinking about all my options including breaking the car and getting an Impreza i made my mind...

I'm going to bite the bullet and go single turbo. I've been thinking about it for too long now.

Ideally i would like a forged closed deck block and a juicy RCM or scoobyclinic billet turbo however for the time being if i get the car to work in single then any tuning options are the same as the Impreza.

So i contacted a user on UKLegacy called 'sonicsti' who speaks realistic power figures and have agreed to buy everything under the bonnet of his V4 Sti that he is breaking including VF34 turbo, STi TMIC and all the gubbins, brackets, manifold, up and down pipe basically take the lot out of his running car and drop it in mine. Then when that engine breaks i will have saved up enough money for the dream build and maybe a new gearbox too.

Once i have all this the car is going to Pole Position in Willenhall to put it all together.

In the meantime i will enjoy picking on unsuspecting Imprezas

I'm quite glad that mine are a dark color and hide the dirt and brake dust well not that you'd ever find much dirt anywhere near my car

Lads got an issue. Well, not so much of an issue as something strange happening with my clutch pedal. Sometimes it seems to be firmer, have more resistance and spring back sharper than it used to. Then other times it will go back to its slightly softer self. Seems to be firmer when ive gave the car a bit of stick or if I've pulled out from a junction quickly from a standstill. Seems to have a bit a of a whiff about it when pulling out quick aswell. Any ideas?
