    Undecided on exhaust system

    Bye bye yozza

    There is a group buy on a Scorpion 192 (one of the quieter ones apparently) at the moment, £300 delivered to your door. That's what I would go for if I was after a value stainless system. Powerflow are custom made and that will depend on the fabricator - some are very good, others are shocking.

    Undecided on exhaust system

    Are you sure? Most people come back after 6 months of doing that saying they "fancy a change" or it drones constantly and it does their head in. Depends how you use the car I suppose but if it's a daily (especially if carrying passengers) I would get a centre silencer. It will also be better if...

    Undecided on exhaust system

    Prospeed in Cardiff is an independent custom exhaust manufacturer. Charlie from there is highly regarded but that's going to be as much as a Yozza I would have thought! There is currently a group buy needing only 2 more people for a Scorpion RS192 at £300 odd delivered for a cat-back system...

    Liquid Yellow 182

    An RS Tuner mapped one loses the kick as the map smoothes out the power delivery.

    Exhaust on 182 and rear axle

    Get one with a centre silencer, that is all. Stainless steel will resist rust (technically shouldn't rust but the welds can sometimes fail) better than the mild steel OEM one and sound more bassy.

    Exhaust on 182 and rear axle

    Only if you want to remove the original one (if it is an OEM exhaust) in one piece? If it is OEM, just cut it to aid removal - it can be sleeved back together (Renault supply the sleeve!).

    Cheap 197 F1 For someone!

    Well, cosmetically the only obvious issue was the wheels which they could get done trade for £100 all in probably and then a basic service and as said, everyone will say it is "dealer supplied" so the best you can get. I guess that's always the case and the nature of the industry. How many...

    A/C myth or true ?

    I think the point is that the air con system produces dehumidified air (whether hot or cold) and in winter the dehumidified air (which can be warm) produced by the system keeps the window free of misting.

    A/C myth or true ?

    Yes, aircon is excellent for that whereas with the demister (blower only) you need to have it set high and hot to demist well/quickly.

    A/C myth or true ?

    Does it have an effect on fuel economy (I think it does)? The blowers will give good hot air so people tend not to use it as much in the winter.
  13. I

    A/C myth or true ?

    I run it for a few minutes each time I fill up (every couple of weeks). That way, I remember to do it regularly as on the whole, I don't really use aircon.

    Suzuki Swift Sport

    Used at the 'ring! This could be the next Cliosport cult car. The secret is out - I've been going on about these for yonks.

    For a modern hatch, it's a great looking car.

    JP Exhaust (Yozza) + De-Cat - Amateurs Review

    If you have any sensitivity to noise, why go for a decat and/or an exhaust with "a distinctive sound" as one of its main characteristics? The best exhaust is the standard one. It is a pleasure to have on the car, no noise, no headache, no strange looks, you can use the stereo and have a...

    Jacking the Car using the Rear Beam

    Which part of the rear beam should be used to avoid bending the usual jacking points by the sill? Can it be anywhere along the beam or are there stronger/reinforced areas along the beam? So if changing a driver's side rear tyre can you just place the jack under the beam on the driver's side...

    Rota Wheels...

    I see the point but as with most fakes, I guess there are two different markets. Those that buy the reps probably cannot or would not buy the genuine ones and those that buy the genuine ones are the customers who insist on/want/need the quality with little overlap. So perhaps RAYS et al are not...

    thinking about spraying my wheels

    If you are doing it to improve them because they are marked, then re-do them anthracite. It will improve their appearance and will help if you decide to sell the car. If you want a colour change and you don't like black, white and want to move from anthracite, that doesn't leave much (silver...

    What's your idea of a good mod/theme.

    You're giving them ideas now, someone's bound to do it. Primer grey is currently the forum's favourite colour isn't it?

    Your Favorite/worst Racing Sim?

    Given the lack of any other comment on it, I assume we are the "grumpy old men" of this forum. I'd be surprised if most on here had heard of it!

    thinking about spraying my wheels

    Good man. Black wheels just don't work for me. You lose all the detail of the wheel, they end up looking smaller and the car just looks "pimped". It's a phase, it'll pass. If you have a 182 Cup, do them in anthracite and if it is a non-Cup leave them silver and don't kerb them after the respray.

    Don't spray them black.

    HAHAHAHA...what a complete bellend

    I was thinking this. Who on this earth would look at that and think "I need to contact this guy, I want this car"? He also mentions unemployment and while I feel for anyone in that position, did his previous role involve writing, typing or talking?!

    My god, I can't actually believe that is a real for sale ad. It looks like one of those spoof ads. Who would possibly buy that?

    What's your idea of a good mod/theme.

    I think the answers to this thread would be more telling/interesting if the question was "If you had to choose one type of mod, what would it be?" I am an OEM guy but for me, it is lowering a "tad" (not slammed so it is undriveable). I can think of no more effective a mod than when you look at a...

    Newbie wants help, what colour 182 do I buy...???!!!

    Colour is one of the most subjective aspects of a car. With respect, the answers won't help you unless you are asking for what is the most popular colour by votes. For my input, you should buy a RB one as I think it is the best colour.
