Not meaning to hijack this thread, but someone in a import car parts shop said that I'm better off changing my cat and cat back system before i do the front/dump pipe and cat first. I always thought start from the turbo back right? Money or lack there off is making me do these mods in 2 stages. Car is a stock S2 Stagea.

I have to get mine done soon too, is this Boostworx?

Go ahead buddy!

Quick chop job from camera phone pic.

Sorry to bring this back up, but I have a 2000 S2 Stagea and am thinking of getting the JJR Bellmouth 3" front/dump pipe mated with the 3" xforce hi-flow cat... So it's a direct fit with no buggering around now? Even with the skewed cat?

Turbo back exhaust for my Series 2, must be quietish, hi flow cat, muffler etc. I know it's a bit vague, sorry, tell me what you have via PM. Cheers.

NENE, great photos, you have a good eye. Thanks.

good fun, was great to meet other stag drivers and have a bit of a play on the twisties. How funny were the looks we all got in glenelg! Thanks again Adam for organising. Cheers, nick.

Hey is the meet place the Target carpark at the cnr of Gorge Rd and Newton Rd?

Looking forward to meeting everyone, cheers, nick.

This still right yeah?

Same here, anywhere from 2-5 secs after starting the car.

If this was available in Adelaide I'd definitely be on it considering I would be more than halving my fuel cost. Thanks for the info. EDIT: Might even be worth the trek over your way in xmas to get it done. How long did it take to do?

Looks mint, always loved that colour. Get used to this words... "IT'S NOT A VOLVO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

Went out and had a big night last night... definitely not in any state to drive today after 2 hrs sleep. Hope it was good.

Man that's a lot of stag's... last cruise i went on only had mine and Tangles!

in for sure... unless something pops up...

Cool, might head down for a look this weekend.

What are my chances of picking up a 2nd hand exhaust system from them this sat?

When I first bought the car it had more then 2% difference on the circumference between front and rear which lead to a funny "farting/groaning" sound when I turned the engine off, and a strange shuddering at about 70kph. The Attessa reservoir dropped pretty quickly too but once i topped that up and got new tyres all was good. re: rwd vs awd... I personally prefer awd, otherwise i would have bought the RS version wouldn't i. Much prefer the security of the awd, especially when wet.

Here's what I found. They don't have to be exactly the same tyres. As long as the rolling dimension is the same or within something like a 2% tolerance (don't quote me on the exact percentage) it's fine. This is to allow for uneven wear and tear. i have different profile tyres front and back but the rolling dim is nearly the same (R - 235/45/17, F - 215/50/17) there are a few websites to calculate rolling dimension (tyre circumference) that are quite good, here's one i googled. some other ones give you the actual % too. http://www.club80-90syncro.co.uk/Syncro_we...0calculator.htm EDIT: Here's a better one http://www.nitinchordia.com/upsizing.htm

Very tempting... got pics? I'm assuming mild steel right? I'm after something with a nice growl when boosting, but nice and quiet when cruising. Where do you live? Any chance I can crusie by sometime to have a listen?

How much did it cost if you don't mind me asking?

Haha! Our 2nd car (runabout) is a 92 Pulsar Ti (SSS engine)

faaaaaark... i'm going to be in Sydney Sounds like it's going to be fun.
