  1. back up for sale :)

    Not for £200 though?

     

    ha no price is in the 1st post looking for £300 plus the 80 assignment fee

    :)

    300? Did you not take heed of what was said before?

     

    yeah like stew said personalised reg's are hard to value and i dont want to be greedy , i dont think its worth anymore than what i am asking for personally

     

    i would rather let it go to someone else than remove it and lose it all together

  2. I paid £250 for my HKS cats from a seller on ebay, they were a bargain at the time even though they were second hand. They were mint B) Cost wise, you've just spent 1000's and you are concerned about the potential £400 extra for Hi-flow cats!!??? :surrender:

    Bennet if you reckon you can change the decats yourself, then how come you paid somebody to change your brakes and everything else you've had fitted? ;):blush: Brakes are easy to change.

    Its a lot of work for the mot when you have to take the de-cats off, fit the standard ones back on, get it mot'd. Then take them back off and fit the decats again :wacko: Whats that gonna cost in labour? and if you can have a go yourself, will you have the spare time to do it, and what if something went wrong like snapping a stud or worse??? :scare:

    Ok, you have the noise factor and it may sound awesome, but would you be happy with it resonating loudly through the car at 70-80mph up and down the M5 :headhurt:

    Its not legal and there's no fun when you get pulled or stuff it in the hedge.

    All for the sake of maybe getting a bit more power out of the Zed.

    Hi-flow cats are simple fit and forget :thumbs:

     

    Anyway can i interest you in a set of hi-flow cats for £200? :D

     

    i'd bite your hand off for a set if you had them :D

  3.  

    What sort of trouble can you get in for no-cats then??

    coops

    MOT fail :thumbdown:

     

    Depends who you know ;)

     

    When I had my car dynoed with the decats in I was about 30 ft/lb down on standard. I had my car dynoed a few months ago with sports cats on & was at the same torque figure. Steve who had a different set of sport cats made similar torque figures to me :)

     

    Dectas are worth it for the noise alone though :cloud9:

     

     

    ah well there goes the theory that the torque loss was down to the decats if you made the same figures with a sports cat :D

     

    i reckon my K2 with a resonated decat still wont be as loud as the K1 without the bungs in...

  4. recently change from K1 to a K2 and its a bit quiet for my liking but the K1 was a bit loud :D

     

    was thinking of getting resonated decat pipe (ichiba or kinetix) to give it more of a growl but i ve read it can suffer heavily from loss of torque but other like adam from Z1 disagree with this?

    i had my ep3 civic decatted and torque actually increased with the better flow

     

    also will the car run lean? with my civic i had to get some sort of engine management when i decatted the car

     

    oh and i am too tight to get a sports cat :D

  5. I do love my K2, certainly best thing I have bought so far. It actually makes the Zed sound like should (if you know what I mean!! :lol: )

     

    yeah i ve not been in stock standard Z before so is hard to judge how it should sound, all i could hear before was the K1, i hope the K2 gets a bit louder once some carbon builds up

     

    oh well looks like i need buy a plenum spacer and cai to add some more grunt :O

  6. just got K1 off and K2 fitted what a difference

     

    car doesnt even sound like its started now that the K2 on , i miss the K1 already although the K2 does suit teh 350z much better

  7. i havea K1 just now and just about to switch to K2

     

    K1 sounds great and looks great but i cant live with it on long journeys and it just doesnt look right with the bungs in

     

    i know once i get the K2 fitted ai am goign to complain its too quiet though :(

  8. iv seen that black type r so many times on the way to work! recognised the W31 HAO plate right away glad u finally got a zed now lol will give u a quick race up the expressway in the mornings ;)

     

    i think i pass your way when i goto work in mornings :)

     

    glad to finally get the zed , let the modding begin...

  9. haha, is ridiculously loud a better way of putting it? skull crushing??

     

    ha, my fezza ST used to be so loud i couldnt take it up my privvate road at night.... it was a really steep single track hill like. couldnt park it in my GF's street.... It did have a 4-2-1 branch performance manifold and straight through de-cated system. Used to spit flames also. Very hard to live with bt soooo fun at same time

     

    i had a EP3 civic type-r with full manifold , de-cat and straight through exhaust and it isnt as loud as that.

     

    its a loud good if that makes sense :)

     

    not as loud my civic used to spit flames as well it was crazy loud

     

    K2 ordered already :p

     

     

    just to clarify ha, its not as loud as your decated civic? or its louder? ha. im probs reading that stupid.

     

    well, i am looking forward to getting it like. get that k2 ordered up pronto :p

  11. marzman and ab350z,

     

    thanks for the info. cant wait to have a loud car again :yahoo:

     

    loud aint the word mate :) but its a nice loud , it also sounds good with bungs in

  12. I really want to hear a k1 in the flesh

     

     

    well i am near you mate gives a shout before its off the car

     

    am i right in thinking it will fit to a standard y pipe?

     

    would it still be loud and deep?
