  1. My led side lights have started to have a little rave and flash when on so need replacing today just hoping the rain stops as its a pain of a job on the hatch.
  2. You did the best job last time :-D
  3. Why did you need to get 5 more tickets? Because we needed the numbers? Also so yer @GeoffLeggy I was also a pain. Poor old Gambit, don't know how he puts up with us.
  4. You order all the tickets from the same page like a season pass thing. So the code will let you buy them all in one go.
  5. So with boots and Gambit that puts us to 11 cars already. Should be a good showing then :-D
  6. I think the sti is unequal to keep the Subaru sound but the wrx is equal. I could be wrong thought but I remember seeing a review talking about the benefits.
  7. All paid up mate.
  8. Got this one booked for me and the misses. Btw guys last chance for cheaper prices today.
  9. Asking £50 plus shipping as I paid £100 a few months ago.
  10. I don't have a standard exhaust anymore but I did. The sti and wrx exhaust are the same until after the cat so this should fit on both the sti and wrx you can swap the exhausts from wrx to sti and the other way round as well. The wrx is single exit and the sti is twin exit.
  11. Hi, There are 2 catalytic converters (cats) in the car one just after the turbo and one under the car. Removing these and replacing with pipe will take away the restriction coursed by the cats and allow the car to sound better and make more power. For best results you should get the car remapped but I felt a difference just having the second cat removed. You need one 2 pass an MOT. Removing the second one under the car will still let you pass an MOT and improve the car. The second cat is the one under the car and this is the one we remove and replace with the de-cat. If you have axel stands or drive on ramps you should be able to fit the de-cat yourself but with all mods if your not confident or dont have tools needed it could be easier to get a local garage to do it for you. To fit the decat you need to undo the bolts that hold the current cat in place and the screw in sensor. Then put the de-cat in its place and do the bolts up.
  12. Hi, Thanks @GeoffLeggy Yes I have a second de-cat for sale link here: Basically it will let out some more noise from the car and give you a performance boost. Simply unbolt your current cat and bolt this in place. I also have passed MOTs with this so no worries about emissions. Thanks Alex
  13. Listing has been updated with better photo and more accurate info.
  14. Not sure really, It cost me £100 to have made and fitted a few months ago. Would be happy to take £50 half what I paid seams fair as its used and so on.
  15. Hi Guys, So I have had a few problems with my exhaust the guy making it up is not bad at what he dose just seams to have cut a few corners and now I am stuck with close to what I want but not quite there. At the moment the pipe is welded onto the back of my original downpipes flange. This obviously leaves in the restriction and makes most of the exhaust pointless. I need a bell mouth for my car going from a TD04 exit to a 3 inch round pipe. I have seen a few on eBay and so on but most are expensive and cost almost as much as a full downpipe. So if anyone in the trade has a way to get hold of one or has part of a down pipe kicking about it would help me out and I can get this exhaust finished. It simple needs to bolt up to the turbo and can be welded onto the rest of my downpipe. Thanks
  16. Finally got the exhaust finish.... That's what I thought. Apparently a 3 inch turbo back means just cut the flange off the stock system weld some pipe to the back of that... Not overly impressed the exhaust system is nice but for what it cost might as well just got it off the shelf at least then I get what I ordered.
  17. Hi Guys, So I had a second De-Cat made up for my hatch a few months ago and have now gone back and had a full downpipe made up. The guy removed the second cat de-cat as it was simpler to re-make it. So I now have it kicking about. If anyone wants to make an offer on it let me know. The cat has been cut out and the new pipe has been sleeved onto my excising pipe work. However as I have replaced the full exhaust the De-Cat is provided from Flange to Flange so can be bolted into your current system without cutting it. Basically provided as shown in the photos. If you need more photos let me know. A simple way to remove the second cat. I also passed my MOT yesterday with a second de-cat so no problems there. If anyone is interested can arrange collection or delivery. Cost me £100 a few months ago so asking £50 plus cost of shipping. Thanks
  18. Glad to see you got them.
  19. I have a gfb dump value on my wish list as it can vent to air to give you the noise or be switched work the same as the stock one for better running. I guess it dosnt matter if you have it mapped in. I know Gambit runs a vent to air without problems.
  20. I had a k&n appolo on a few cars in the past no problems. But run a cosworth drop in filter in the scooby most tuners seam to say the stock air box is very good and not worth messing with unless you need the room or want more induction noise. I am tempted by a misimoto cold air intake but the scooby one is so good I haven't bothered yet.
  21. If not can have a few words mate mine gets through and you know how quiet that is ;) Thank you, I have a few reasons for going with a cat but if it's going to fail no matter what I might change my mind anyway. You still driving it with the bung? Also be interesting to see what power it makes with a cat. I know with a full decat one made 277 so if I can get close to that with a cat I will be happy. Then it's getting over 300 haha. -- I make Films for businesses and people. I also make websites.
  22. Yer well it's exhaust day tomorrow as well going down to just 100 cel cat hopefully will still be mot friendly next year be interesting to see the emissions difference.
  23. Sorry it's not turned up yet. To be clear I don't make money from it. I was simply trying to do something nice for the club. People tell me they want a plate I pass on the info and money. The plates get shipped to me and I sort them out and post them out. It it was originally going to be a group buy something I did once but due to lack of interest it dident happen so I have stuck to it doing one at a time. It normally takes about 2 weeks for a set of plates to be printed and shipped. In your case it's been a little long but we also had Christmas and new year so that will have delayed things a bit As I said the guy has had family problems with his lad in hospital so hadn't really been working I wish he had told me this at the start as I could have warned you about the time it would take. I hope it turns up tomorrow. Dont worry about the money if you don't get the plate I will refund you out of my own pocket if it dosnt get to you as I started this so will stand by it. But I don't expect it to come to that.
  24. Back from mot passed but looks like 3 shockers are on the way out. I guess I will look into coilovers then. Also since taking the second cat out my emissions got better..... Might be due to the rebuild but that's a strange one.
