April 1, 20178 yr Ive just drove to leeds and back today (150 miles) During the drive i couldnt hear anything apart from the exhaust the cd player was pointless and my mrs had to shout to speak to me (debatable wether this is bad) I only drive the car for fun usually but fancied a long drive and never again !! If you use your scooby as a daily you need your headlooking at Admittedly mine has got all the bolt on lovely go fast bits bit still....
April 2, 20178 yr I told you. Nearly killed me when i did a 200 mile round trip to fetch are other car. Felt like i had been hit by a bus by time i had got home. No way i could have one as a daily. Perfect toy though! We are a pair of moaning !Removed! though @Rps lol
April 2, 20178 yr So buy yourself a 3" cobra track day system and set the coilovers a bit softer ... . Da daa 4 door daily that doesn't chip your teeth or make your ears bleed 😉
April 2, 20178 yr Bet they are 3inch straight through with decats and no resonators. Sent from my SM-J320FN using Tapatalk
April 2, 20178 yr Indeed a resonated section makes the world of difference, perfect daily imo even see over 30mpg sometimes 😂 Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk
April 2, 20178 yr Mine is my daily, although working from home means it's not in daily use [emoji15] For longer journeys I have a bung for the nur spec but don't always use it....like the sound too much [emoji41] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
April 2, 20178 yr I daily mine. See over 300 miles to a tank, don't have a resonator and have got a 4.5" afterburner backbox. All standard cats removed and have a sports cat downpipe. It's pretty loud but not stupid... can easily have a conversation with the Mrs. Can even hear my wheel bearing is getting worse... must be really bad if I can hear it quite clearly!
April 2, 20178 yr Mine is a 3" cobra with no cats or resinators and got new coilovers too lol I run gruppe headers,4 bolt up pipe, a cusco decat downpipe mated to a 3" Cobra track day system [emoji6] It has 2 resonators in the centre section and a big back box but still flows well enough for 360hp @1.5 bar [emoji41] If your coilovers have adjustable damper ,just set them a couple of clicks softer . As my meister r zeta-r coilovers are fine set 3 clicks softer than the original geo set up even with hardly any wheel gap and the Whiteline arb, droplinks and roll centre correction kit keeping things tight in the twisties [emoji41]

Sent from my HTC One M9 using Tapatalk Yeh my wheel bearing started going after I drove a few miles with a caliper siezed on... it's due a service anyway so I'll get my garage ti change it! It's been whining for over a year so can't wait to get rid of the noise!

April 2, 20178 yr In Norwich there's a guy that uses a uk2000 as a food delivery car, also in the area an Impreza sport and a legacy used as delivery cars, doing maybe 100+ miles a day! Maybe you just need to change your set up :) Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
