Yeah I was pretty impressed the way it come out in a tidy pattern, we went a few K's down the beach after the dunes and it got narrower, steeper and softer so with a bit of pissing around I managed to turn it around, Seagull once warned me about damp sand sticking to the wheels but I'd never had the problem before, I did noticed clumps of sand when I aired up but ignored them, anyhow not long after leaving town we'd been sitting on 100ish and I booted it up to 140ish to pass a car, fuck me it nearly shook us to death so I found a nice track off to the left, pulled a handbrakie then pulled up to hopefully dig some sand out of the wheels.............not a fucking scrap in there but I looked back at the skid and noticed a few clumps of nice white sand on the gravel, took her up to a decent speed and perfect lol.

First time it's ever had more than 9psi, Simon sorted the vacuum hoses and she's happy to hit 14psi with the STI RA computer now, so much better up top, just a shame the gearing is so low, 4,000rpm at 110kph so I doubt it would hit 180, fucking thing bolts even quicker in low range.

Sweet I'll keep you in mind, not really much more could be done to it apart from wider tyres and it still pretty much handles like a WRX with the Dobinson springs, the rear sway is hanging up on cable ties lol.

Every time you post a vid I cant believe its a WRX.
This looks like 'THE' most fun GF8 in the known universe.

Tom,

I have done the video, I'm just having a karnt of a time uploading it. I have tried 5 times and at some point during the upload it comes up with "connection error" I am suspecting it has something to do with it being a large file and shitty internet up here.......

I have now given up on uploading it until I get home, as my internet usage up here is taking a hammering because of it. I have got some more photos for you to look at though.
