hello
just before i start fitting the decat we have, i am wondering if the decat will make the exhaust to noisey to pass the bedford noise limits.
the exhuast has a back back and a centre box and currently is relatively quite IMO, will this chnage make a massicve difference??
has anyone get...
My questions would be this:
1 - How does the app work?? Will any noise/movement activate the app or will the phone go into sleep mode and deactivate the app?
2 - What is the sound like? Will it pickup low level sound. Video is good but not enough on its own.
I looked into the product that...
We are :) I have a close eye on your thread but have just paid for the renault sport evening and Matt is booking Coombe, if it starts filling I will book otherwise its my next door neighbours birthday and would you believe it.. My car tax is due.... Lol
Don't worry Just being a tight arse and...

This states slightly different.. I think ours is about 45 degs
I don't really know about ac delete as we only really used the car after it happened :) ours is soley a track car though, if your using it in the road its a good thing...
I only have basic harnesses at the minute so plan on upgarding to something a little more substantial, Mine are pretty much fixed into the standard locations though, however, i can check to see if anything was modified.
are you keeping your interior?
its making it quite regular now, but not always when steering as such as on the spot it wont make the clunk, it does it every time you turn right with any force, it seems more like something that is moving under the weight than the actual steering motion.
we are going to go over all the bolts...
Today's few hours consisted of:
Replacing the rear shock bolts due to damaged one from it bring loose
Fit new tax disk and holder
Try to fit resistors to turn off airbag and serv light... FAILED
replace steering rack bushes to cure knock and steering play
Old vs new
Old ones were totally soft...
Only recent progress is around working through all the little rattles and knocking noises we have noticed, the worst being the exhaust and exhaust heat shield...
Or so we thought... Went to see Fred at BTM to return the seat and he took it for a spin, confirming something up with the rear one...
Sorry for the delay, been away for the week with only limited access to wifi :)
Matt said he filed down the top and bottom of the backing plate and made sure they felt free enough in the caliper, is this what you are referring to? If so its the same as in my leon :)
Cam racing told me that these fitted straight on, they also sold a version that needed fettling with to fit.
Should we have filled these down anyway? I will have to check with Matt as he did this on his day off yesterday
Thanks for the reply though Fred, very much appreciated :)
New front disks and pads fitted
Old exhaust mounts
Nice new ones fitted
Ready for the next track day I reckon :)
May do some tidying of the inside but nothing that will stop the car from moving :)
Plans for next trackday:
Tidy up interior with paint and removal of remaining sound deadening
Investigate suspected steering rack knock and bushes
Replace disks and pads on the front
Replace exhaust mounts on back box :)
Return seat to Fred @btm
These turned up today :)
i was driving it thinking exactly the same... Lesleys car just stuck, in ours I had the wheel in all directions trying to get round the corner without a spin..lol
100% - I now need to put some attention towards the family, as between me and matt we have had two cars to get ready and its meant never being home before 9pm.
however, quick family holiday and that will be remedied and we will be booking some days and back to work :)
I was saying to matt on teh drive home, for all its potential history.... It's mint :)
had to turn the RARB down though, it was way to twitchy for my liking/experiance..lol
