  1. sods law that!!!! they are OEM Cats. when i walked over to have a look at what was happening i did notice a fairly large hammer on the ramp next to him!! i had the Y pipe, mid and box installed. no it was a 2nd hand one from Steve (team Lizard) should have fitted sweet as a nut!!
  2. no havent yet, will tomorrow tho, when i had a quick look, the cat seems to be low on the drivers side. there are no hangers there so i hope that they havent damaged anything when removing the bolts and the OEM Ypipe. my sisters BF (who is a mechanic) said to go there as they were not bad and have dont some work for him in the past. (RSR, factory lane, Croydon). Bloody Knew i should have done it myself!!!!! Sparky
  3. local place mate, what do u mean rotate it 45 degrees? u cant do that, its a flanged joint. all the bolts appear to be tight as well. its a bloody pain really. they have used sealent on all of the joints as well. i just hope that they havent damaged the cats or even worse the manifolds, removing the old bolts!! cheers
  4. i had an scorpion exhaust fitted with a Japspeed Y pipe yesterday. however after driving about today it is touching and rattling on the beam that goes across the car about half way up the mid pipe. i have checked that the hangers are on but it just seem weird that it was OK yesterday but is now fouling. also does the scorpion get "louder" when it gets hotter, ie when your driving harder? as when i was driving a bit harder than usual it sounded almost like it was blowing. Cheers
  5. i too, would love to come down to abbeys and have a look at the beast!! get a date sorted ASAP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  6. right, this is not to the exact mm but its about 1980mm thats with the mirrors fully out. as i say this isnt absolute but is your garage is 2metre wide i think you need a smaller car or a driveway
  7. if you give me fine i'll measure the width and yes a UK GT would have foldy mirrors
  8. white spoiler for sure, looks like the bonnet has got a kink in it as well. been in an accident me thinks
  9. amen to that!! i said i wasnt gonna MOD it in ant way!! LOL it satred with badges then to pop charger, exhaust, y pipe!! ohh dear! and now i got my first carbon bits!! oh bugger
  10. its defo a scorpion!! big cans and the slash cut!
  11. i got one mate, let me know if you want it. Sparky
  12. the day i picked up the Zed was amazing. i couldnt sleep the night before and i couldnt get there fast enough!! i had to wait a few weeks though as the garage hadnt done a few things what i asked them the first time i went to pick it up. i have had 2 or three people looking and given the thumbs up when i drove past. i took it to my sisters and gave it a good old rash!! it is my first coupe sport car and i love it to bits. all in all i am so happy with the zed its amazing!!!!!!
  13. right, so they just "pull" off do they? i thought they may do but i didnt wnat to bugger things up!!!!! i post pics of the fitted article later
  14. hi there, got these today . only problem i have is they dont seem to fit. do u have to adjust them? or car u remove the b pillar cover all together? i thought they just slid over the top and fixed back with a bit of tape cheers Sparky
  15. Yeah that would be cool!! lol!! only problem is whats the point of being 2 foot away from the car and pointing your phone at it? just get in and drrrrrriiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiive!! funny vid tho. and yes the cost is alot especially with road tax. MOTs insurance 40$ is just one more expense per year i dont need. my sisters BF had remote start on his Pulsar. was a massive pain and cost alot to fit. he just ripped it out in the end.
  16. Why u going back to stock? what a pain get it all in they bloody pull it out!! shame really!!
  17. now what would be even better, is if you could DRIVE the car with your finger!!! like the BMW in James Bond!! defo freak some people out!!
  18. just out of interest, how much would a full detail like that cost the average Joe, like myself???
  19. whoa whoa!! its gone now!! and what done is done. leave the poor guy to weep at the loss of his beloved Z. poor chap, i feel your pain! sorry to hear about your loss! Sparky
  20. had them on my previous car and it they were Spot on!!!! really, really good Mod. well worth it. i bought a cheap set of ebay for £70 and they were wicked. easy to fit and was 1000% positive difference. Sparky
  21. signed up and lets hope the sponsors are really nice to you!!
  22. oh cheers thought he'd sold it. ta. Sparky
  23. yeah i think i asked and it was quite alot. and the shift pattern was scuffed. i know that new from nissan they are and arm and a leg. like 300 notes apparently. didnt think it was a bad price from the scrappies but i can go and view it to make sure its OK. plus they can be buggers to remove. i dont want some muppet removing it and then messing it up and saying it was fine when we sent it ect...... hopefully i get one soon as mine is doing my head in. Sparky
