Cheers Nige. It was stage one tuned by GRD about 5-6 years ago and has remained the same since. Full decat, fuel pump, panel filter and remap. My actual car when it was done [URL="http://www.greenwoodracing.co.uk/cc_sti_0305_stg1_1.asp#[/URL]

As for my brakes. I'm adament they were warped or out of tolerance since i've had them. They were vibrating since they were fitted and i just thought that's how they were as i'd never had drilled discs before. Turns out they shouldn't be doing that so took it to SMD who checked everything very thouroughly and concluded it was indeed the discs that were warped. Had them skimmed up and they were good as gold for a few weeks maybe a few months, then it started again. I've never been on a track with them and I very very seldom have to brake hard. Never skidded the car or even had the abs working in it that's how gently i use my brakes.

They are gaurenteed not to crack or warp in the first 12 months and when i phoned up about it, they said they'd never known it happen so far so i guess i've just been unlucky. Statistically someone's got to be. The only trouble is like any warranty/gaurentee it's subject to a checking process to make sure they are definitely cracked/warped so i'd need to take them off and send them away for checking meaning i'd be carless for a few weeks. It's my daily driver so that can't happen so will buy new ones, different make, and then send these back and go from there.
