  1. one of the cheapy keychain cams i can assure you it is a whole lot louder than a K1 and less than half the price
  2. I am calling bull on this one....you ain't got it in you Husky!. Cragus waits to be proven wrong
  3. of course got to say this was so loud i didnt even get the manic laughter I feel a bit like i just abused nature video uploading
  4. i dont know officer, all of a sudden it sounded like a track car hmm i may see what its like on idle and barely loaded, if its even tolerable. think of standing next to a track car as it rev's and your there.
  5. the urge to take it out for a drive is overwhelming now
  6. have to say i am considering taking it out on the road y-pipe only would i get in trouble? and if so how much at this rate if i dont get a move on and put the new one on i will need to drive to work like it!! quick question.. the y-pipe join to the midpipe was blowing a teeny bit, if i just change the gasket would that solve it or do i need to change the whole y-pipe?
  7. 04 plate car 38k miles My exhaust started blowing in a big way (undrivable) so i sourced a new one, Doogyrev was kind enough to bestow upon me the best condition used exhaust known to man Look! So yesterday i set about getting the old one off, now ive taken a backbox off before so i started there so here she is, still covered in gungum from me trying to keep my hearing intact. you can see the earth strap has snapped straight off and how much rust there was there so time to attack it with the wire brush until my knuckles bled now to pop off the earth strap bolt, oh look! that was so easy, maybe the rest will be just like this one not a plucking chance under that is the real bolt, this ones usually not bad as its kinda protected by the earth bolt, off that comes. now for the bad news, the next one, no matter how many pennys you throw into wells and wish, it will be stubborn and turn into cheese. So i put on the socket/breaker bar and all 6 corners rounded in one go. Out with the mini blow torch... right that didnt work, lets get DREMEL on the job ok so no.. dremel didnt work, well more that i wanted not to die of old age before removing the exhaust, so i gave up and found the massive crack between the flange and the pipe and stuck a brick chisel in TADA! so i went for a spin with only the midpipe I HEREBY NAME THIS SETUP.. THE K1(foc) that was yesterday.... this is today so i got a breaker bar on the Y-pipe to mid pipe bolts and pushed... and pushed... turned round, got my feet on the bar and pushed with everything i had... Not a movement. so i WD40'd it to death.... mmmm nope not a move. so i got out my new toy BLOWTORCH mwahahahaha. Yeah so tip 1 for blowtorching; dont use even near where you put WD40 30 mins ago i put my heatproof mat round behind the Y-pipe and started blowtorching the nut, sorry i dont have any pics, it was a tight sqeeze getting under the car and i thought paying attention to the fire under my car was important but it came off first time! My advice!! Just blow torch it right from square one, dont fanny about doing other stuff just go straight for the big guns plus its very cool when the neighbors watch, they actually think you know what your doing so dead mid pipe is here and dead back box is here ive now only got the y-pipe on the car and it is deafeningly loud!!!
  8. yeah these have sandisk labels but i know theres no way they are got to order some more decent ones when i get the chance
  9. yeah the micro SD cards are going in the bin, they were cheap EBAY ones that say sandisk but are copies. i bought them before i read all about duplicate frames on cards with poor write speeds got to spend a little more moolah for nice ones before i make a full vid
  10. yeah the blip for the down change to rev match became the habit gained from a previously buggered gearbox, never used to be able to downshift without that blip
  11. uploading to youtube managed to get quite an eev sound under the number plate so im quite chuffed putting the one there for sound in the mean time eperiment success. on a side note the backbox missing was epic fun and sounded ace from in the cabin but sounded like ASS from the outside
  12. oh that was too good, vid up in a min, to keep on topic... the sound recording is scaled in volume, so if something loud comes along it automatically turns the volume down, frustrating on the road of course as the volume is so variable. i still think it'd be best to record the sound on a cheap dedicated device instead and splice back in at the end.
  13. just removed my backbox to swap it... dont think i can resist taking a wee tiny run with no backbox will record with our little cameras as a test of sound recording ability
