    Catback Exhaust

    IIRC - K1 is not 'catback' - you would require Y pipe as well - OP you say you're looking for catback system... K1 currently retails at £345 new - they usually go for around £180 second hand then you'd need to add on cost of Y pipe new or second hand. The BC is cat back and they come up every so often second hand - but never paid attention to what they go for OP - you like LOUD then do you? your ears are going to bleed and you will eventually suffer hearing and filling loss
  2. If practicality wasn't an issue and I could have something just for track an Exige If budget wasn't an issue then an MY11 R35
  3. This morning Forfar Rd - we even managed to say
  4. V sad. Although Franchitti is quoted as saying things were getting a 'bit crazy' by the second lap...if he says that then it must've been getting a bit hairy - the video and photos doing the rounds online are horrific. Not comparing them in anyway but reminds me of seeing Senna sitting there twitching as he passed
  5. yeah - I get what you're saying - however that would mean that 90% of people driving around in a used car could potentially have their policies declared null and void. Simply doesn't happen and the industry relies on folks thikning they're over a barrel and declaring everything they do to their car - and at a bare minimum paying an administration charge to add to their policy. Just to be clear I am not advocating fraud or not declaring significant modifications such as roll cages - (which would require significant adjustments to interior of the car) - I am simply advocating a common sense approach here
  6. Hi Dave - welcome to the forum As folk above say plenty members in Abz - I'm just down the road too - and you've got Zmanalex very handy as well
  7. An insurance company will never buy the fact that it isnt enhancing peformance unfortunatley How exactly can they say either items increase performance? It would be down to them to PROVE that they do - and as experienced zed owners we can prove that they don't. I for one am not prepared to be a sheep on this one and would quite happily argue the toss with any insurer
  8. yup me too - thought it was cos I went into the chat room - it got a fright
  9. Neily are you scrapping again?
  10. I hadn't noticed that until you pointed it out
  11. oooh someone phone them tomorrow and ask them lots of questions I agree with Neil the badge alone must add some serious HP
  12. Find me an insurance policy that says you must replace wear and tear items such as exhaust and brake parts with OEM parts...I don't think there is a clause in anyone's policy that says that. (Though I stand to be proven wrong on that) What it does say is that you must declare performance enhancing modifications and non factory body parts. Otherwise anyone who even does so much as replaces their pads with non OEMs would be voiding their policy On a zed if you don't remap then even an upgraded exhaust isn't 'enhancing' performance is it - because the ECU will readjust.

    GTR

    Litchfields or Middlehurst
  14. Poor Custard!!! Nice to see him reunited with his old wheels though
  15. Maybe it was Stormhorse you could've got lucky (or not if it was her) Edit: Colin just pointed out to me we have a new female member called 'Storm White' - who I wasn't aware of - just to be quite clear this is absolutley no reference to this person - as long term members will appreciate!!
  16. No thanks, having had an HTC Desire for just over a year now i cant wait for my contract to be up. Fantastic phone for wiping your arse or the other multitude of tricks it can do like playing angry birds but for using for the basic function of actually phoning someone its the worst mobile i have ever had! Constant disconnects mid call, people complaining about the quality of been able to hear me.........ask Colin, and you hardly ever get a decent 3G signal. And no more software updates for it either so stuck on Android 2.2. Dare i say it i think the new i-phone will be on the cards shortly and a different network other than vodafone! Hitler with an iPhone The worlds gone mad The thread is now over Godwins law applied!
  17. Welcome to the forum - nice looking zed
  18. Are you on to Frank Turner yet? Never heard of him...just had a wee squizz on YTube - he's a bit Billy Bragg - maybe not for me
  19. Surely just a courtesy car - you can't go auto yet!!!
