Stage 1 complete (exhaust)

[clio__chris]

despite of what everyone seems to say on here it fits pretty well and quality seems pretty good..... its the silenced one so its got an extra silencer in the middle (where the std one is) - sounds deep on tickover and nice and quiet in mids and when goin hard it gives a bit of a rumble (sounds like a scooby imo).... money well spent (or seems so at the mo)

coilovers to be fitted (scared!!)

[clio__chris]

yeah they r fks but not fitted yet

thats gonna be a job for fri & sat next week as i fear it might be a bit tricky

havent noticed much difference as ive only had a quick blip down the road and back

 

[The Big Yin]

The shape really suits the car - Where did you buy the coilovers from , tempted to do this myself but they are god damn expensive , keep the pics coming as you mod it maybe wash it nexttime tho ......

 

[clio__chris]

got them both from ktec

exhaust is gonna look a lot better once its sooted up inside then it wont be so obv that the exit is a trim sort of thing

 

[JoelDee]

Looks good matey ,needs lowering bad!

 

[clio__chris]

hardcore fk kit ready to fit

Dude what did u pay from k-tec for the coils? Im about to shell out 473 for mine...Jus making sure im not gettin ripped off

 

[clio__chris]

pming u ajr

 

[Dan Page]

can you pm me too, want a set of fk coil overs (again) in the very near future. Paid £450 for a second hand set but would be nice to know of somewhere i can get em brand new for a reasonable price.

Cheers

 

[clio__chris]

roger that mr page

 

[clio__chris]

update: deffinately more responsive - revvs more freely and more nippy as far as i can tell

badly needs sooting up tho as the tailpipe looks crap inside when its shiney

 

[Dink]

good to hear

i noticed the diffeence on mine too (probably due to getting rid of the silly bore size of the oem exhaust)

 

[clio__chris]

yeah might have to take the middle bracket off tho as i put it on the wrong way around to the std one

dunno seems to be holding for the mo - do u think it matters?

will have to see how it looks when fitting coilovers this weekend

 

[Loki]

ask has he got his cheep not sure how much but they were cheep and i think he got them direct from fk


hope that helps: Dan

Cool, so youve done an engine transplant as well? Put a flat 4 in there?

 

[Phill1978]

[ViolentJ]
