    Ktec sports cat and stealth too droney/intrusive... options?!

    I definitely want to be reminded, but only when I feel the need...! What cat are you running with it (oe, sports, decat)?

    Ktec sports cat and stealth too droney/intrusive... options?!

    Thanks for the info... I take it the performance of the 2 is negligible, but you reckon the Yozza would be noticeably quieter? I do quite like the idea of keeping the 2.5" bore throughout though, as I'll be very tempted by the RS2 if I still have my car in 2 years... but anyway, I think I...

    Ktec sports cat and stealth too droney/intrusive... options?!

    Interesting, where did you hear that? As I was under the impression from things I've read that it was a standard db system too. I've had mine on for over a year, and I do like it when on full chat... but with my new job I'll be doing more motorway/carriageway miles, and plus I want to make a...

    Ktec sports cat and stealth too droney/intrusive... options?!

    I currently have a Ktec sports cat and silenced SS stealth system, but I think I’m getting old before my time and I’m getting annoyed at how droney and intrusive it is at 60+mph. I do like the sound of it when pushing on, but it’s getting on my wick when cruising and even slightly embarrassing...

    Anyone gone from Ktec/Apex 30mm to Eibachs?

    Well I ordered the sportlines from Kam Racing this morning, and they're being sent out today...! Thanks to whoever I spoke to at Kam Racing, excellent service; and cheers for all of the replies!

    Anyone gone from Ktec/Apex 30mm to Eibachs?

    Decision made then... thanks again!

    Anyone gone from Ktec/Apex 30mm to Eibachs?

    Thanks for clearing that up Fred, it will definitely be the sports if any then...! The Apex definitely have a very low ride quality, which is why I'm thinking of making the change... I was just wondering if the difference will be 'night and day' or only marginally noticeable?!

    Anyone gone from Ktec/Apex 30mm to Eibachs?

    I know there are a lot of threads stating Eibach are superior to Apex, but most are comparing the Eibachs to larger drops than 30mm... So, I'm just wondering if anyone has done this, and if so, was there a noticeable difference in ride quality? (I'm still undecided on pro’s or sports, so looking...

    Excessive wear on inner side of my n/s rear tyre...?

    No... I had it checked twice, just to make sure there wasn't an error!

    Excessive wear on inner side of my n/s rear tyre...?

    Right... Had the alignment checked (twice), and there is an average difference of 29 minutes more negative camber (on affected side), and 26.5 minutes more toe. Here are the results: So, I take it something is bent (although there was roughly the same additional camber on the front...

    Excessive wear on inner side of my n/s rear tyre...?

    Cheers for the responses... so it's more likey to be something bent as opposed to worn or collapsed? I'll get it booked in as soon as I can to get it checked out... would kwik fit or an independent tyre place be adequate, or would it have to be a specialist?

    Excessive wear on inner side of my n/s rear tyre...?

    I thought the rear was fixed? But I have had the front done since changing the wheels...

    Excessive wear on inner side of my n/s rear tyre...?

    I had my car on a ramp and noticed the inner 2-3” of the rear n/s tyre is wearing really quickly... visually there seems to be more -ve camber on that side. Nothing seemed obviously bent, and no leaks on the shocks. The tyres were new in Jan, when I fitted new wheels, and I do not remember...

    Live data question. Suspected lambda issue, poor fuel consumption

    What figures would you say are way above and below? And if the long term is not 128, is it an indication that it's going down hill (mines 122)? Cheers

    CoPilot vs Navigon... which is better?!

    Thanks for the posts, I went with CoPilot in the end... not sure if it was the best option, but I was pretty impressed! Went from Plymouth to Rugby, a few places up there, and then back down south... I found it pretty smooth, and the routes were all right (swapping between quickest and...

    iTunes help please?

    I think it's right click, 'get info'... then it's 'options' tab far right, and select 'part of compilation'

    CoPilot vs Navigon... which is better?!

    Yeah, I saw it was cheaper a few weeks ago... how long ago did you have CoPilot, and what's better about Navigon?
  19. smiler_

    CoPilot vs Navigon... which is better?!

    Really can't decide between the 2... both are very similar in features and price (including the in-app purchases required, TSS and Postcode respectively) Reviews seem to favour CoPilot due to value, but with Navigon being reduced to £19.99 it's unclear which is the best option... Has...

    172 Cup owners some help please?

    62 sounds about right to me... possibly a few mph less, but definitely around the 60 mark

    Quiet Exhaust = Slow Clio?

    I had a 'sporty' longlife system on mine, also unsilenced... only managed to survive a week of it! I found it 'felt' quicker when I swapped it over, probably due to the fact that I wasn't getting annoyed everytime I put my foot down!

    Differences in ph2 RS wheels...?

    I'm thinking about getting my wheel re-trimmed and just wanted to confirm that the controls/buttons on a non cup are detachable? I just want to make sure there are no differences between the 2 wheels (for exchange purposes)... Thanks in advance

    Lots of play in gearstick whilst in gear!

    Right, mine is play in the bush that Yanoo suggested... ordered a new one, so hopefully it'll sort it and there's nothing else!

    Lots of play in gearstick whilst in gear!

    Definitely... I only noticed it today, whilst stuck in traffic, and it's already winding me up! I'll see if I can get it on a ramp tomorrow, and I'll let you know if I find anything!

    Lots of play in gearstick whilst in gear!

    Mister G, did you find the problem? Mine's suddenly got a lot of left to right movement...!
