Not a fan, next to a gorgeous F type this looks a dogs dinner imo.

Rich @ RPM is recommended also @RichRPM

What I find helpful is when a garage can quote for the repair, providing all goes well - then naturally go from there.

I had reserved judgement till I saw it and love it, loose the Qashqai wheels in favour for some nice concave aftermarket ones and it'll make the car imo. Plus 12 sec 1/4 mile isn't too bad either.

In the flesh, they're stunning imo. Saw a pair at C&M on Sunday and wow, I'd love one one day - not slow either.

Might aswell buy new for that money @Katieallen

I know, saw you pull in then of course in convoy in my rear view - then that was it huff Sadly not, checked my dashcam and I had a poxy 16gb card in there which is no good to man nor beast. Have on video half the journey there and all back only. I reckon next time back to C&M possibly for a drink on a Thurs/Fri evening might be nice. All meet there, as its done up nice after hours say 7/8pm. -
Like Tamworth

hhmmmm Nismo -
So before it's September already and before you know it Christmas shopping, big coats and boots with at the top of all our priorities! Today was something different for the club and nice to touch on Caffeine and Machine in strong numbers as we did - 20+ cars collectively. Caff & Mac is pretty much a full on car show all year round with so much going on, with different cars every time. I found it hard to catch up with everyone and see all our lovely Zeds let alone all the other cars on display. With numbers the Mids lot pull in, for a nice sit down meal it's impossible as we'd easily fill out C&M's restaurant. So il put it back to the members to poll which type of meet you'd like next, before the weather goes against us?

Not to worry chaps, plenty more to come -
Just ran a price check and lowest for this kit was £132.84, very good value for occasion driveway use I reckon.

Different wheels and lowering springs would transform the car imo.

Really fancy a cordless impact wrench as it would make life so much easier. Any members have one, which were good and which were crap? https://www.amazon.co.uk/Ryobi-R18IW3-120S-Impact-Wrench-Hyper/dp/B07FLYJ682

Sadly no guaranteed parking as bookings are £10 per vehicle and they sadly don't do table pre bookings for food on the weekends. With the improved parking shown below in red compared to last year in yellow, I cant see parking at 10:30am being a problem for us but you never know. -
The VQ has so much low end torque, shifting 1st to 3rd causes no concern for the first 5mins of the journey.

^ yeah that's the plan at least to see what's what on the sound front, it sounds just about perfect. Low and deep with somehow a fuller richer sound, oddly less rasp than with the OE cats and JapSpeed y pipe.

I'm theory if the car is running well and the cat material is of good enough quality, it shouldn't cause concern. Plenty of straight 6 cars have options for a single sports cats ie the below. I'll get the car tested and if whereby it won't pass, il swap out the system to OE spec. Few hours work on the drive once every 12 months is more than worth it for ART pipes. http://cobrasport.com/index.php/high-flow-sports-cat-front-pipe-exhaust-2193.html https://www.japspeed.co.uk/lexus-is200-2-0-98-05-exhaust-sports-cat-pipe
