Thanks Pal!

You could try a metal polish such as Autosol. Depends on the severity of any corossion as t how successful you are

Sarg400 22 April 2015 09:16 PM

car looks nice best colour :thumb:

Barxy 22 April 2015 09:23 PM

Lovely looking car.
It will be tough but you will need some autosol and either a lot of time, patience and a strong arm, or preferable a small buffer that you can use. Maybe even a wire wool will help but it looks quite far gone !

lewis.philcox 28 April 2015 07:22 PM

Thanks guys.

Can anyone tell me if this is a full downpipe and decat or just downpipe?
It looks to long just to be a downpipe?

looks nice car,are you sam and jamies mate?

Fonzey 28 April 2015 07:28 PM

These Crystal Grey Blobs are getting too common. Need a few more to get broken :P

That would appear to be a full decat.

Hahahaha, are you the one with the damd steering wheel by any chance? By full decat I guess you mean a down pipe and decat pipe in one so I can just mate it to my cat back?

Mustoe91 28 April 2015 08:02 PM

That will mate straight to your cat back system bud

That's me

TonyBurns 28 April 2015 08:57 PM

As said, that is a decat downpipe, IF you fit it then you WILL need to get a remap otherwise you will cause engine damage :(

lewis.philcox 28 April 2015 09:14 PM

Yeah I'm going to wait until I'm booked in for a new map in a couple of weeks!

Little update!

Did try to clean the exhaust. Obviously didn't go great!

Attachment 46240

So instead I went on a buying spree

3inch vortex afterburner catback to go along side the decat and down pipe I also did cambelt and water pump, induction kit, 3 port boost solenoid.

Obviously the dog helps!

Few weeks back me and a few mates also attended the forge meet in Gloucester quick entrance pic..

The car had a few marks dents, scratches etc plan was to just have a bit done. Went a bit further and ended up with Basically a full respray. Looked like this about two weeks ago

Thought I'd add a front splitter for good measure.

Attachment 46248

Thanks

lewis.philcox 27 June 2015 07:46 PM

Matt23 07 July 2015 10:58 PM

Leave the stickers off, it will look much cleaner imo

Ste333 13 July 2015 11:55 AM

lewis.philcox 21 July 2015 07:39 AM

Attachment 45018

So Monday came around and I made my way to RCM so Duncan from RaceDynamix could remap the car for me. What can I say about RCM and Duncan apart from how friendly and knowledgeable they all are. Duncan did a terrific map and the car made top power which was excellent he was really pleased with the figures. A couple of pics and the graph!

352bhp and 330ft/lbs was the figures for today

We arrived nice and early at RCM obligatory picture

Attachment 45021

All I need to do now is put the STI and type UK badge on the boot then it's done for now

Thanks

Sarg400 28 July 2015 11:15 PM

Front splitter has made such a difference to the front end. Looking good!
