Anywho today sucks ***!

Summary of my day so far.

Scraping ice off the cars at 6:30,
Broke the garage door,
Late to work because of said garage door mixed with slow drivers and driving the Ka,
Then get to work to find a broken aircon unit.

Brilliant start!

Insure your car outside of Birmingham if you know any family or friends that own places. Move your license as well because 'I'm sure someone said you were moving and only coming to brum for the meets'
It wouldn't be so bad if I actually lived in birmigham lol I live 5 mins from merry hill so at least 10 miles from brum lol

Hi Jason, you need to open a free account at: photobucket.com, upload your pics to that, then simply copy and paste the img codes onto here, easy peasy

H beat me to it this time lol. Will do it indepth and custom to your ipad lmaoooo

on your Ipad go to the appstore
Search for photobucket, they have their own app just makes it easier lol to upload from your idevice
Open the app make an account etc and start uploading lol
When you upload it there will be an image code it will look something like [img]xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx[img/]
Copy that code and paste it into the reply thread thing where you normally type stuff in

Thats it really would have done it with pictures but was feeling lazy lmaooo

I know of an APS system for sale (of my old prodrive bug and imho one of the best out there) the owner wants something a bit louder ........PM me and I will pass you his number. The system is still on the car but you can arrange something between yourselves

re meet, whenever you are ready mate, we are not going anywhere

Didn't realise.

On a side note if you got the whole exhaust system it would fit wouldn't it. I'm sure I heard of people putting new age exhausts on to classics. I could be wrong. But someone will say if I am.

There was the exhaust you wanted in the sale section Blitz. But not sure if it was the full system. Have a look.

One of the guys here will be able to point you in the right direction. I don't have any experience of mixing the different exhausts from the different shapes.


H I need some advice mate got a few ideas and because you have had so many Subarus and your tastes are similar to mine thought I would get your opinion.
