Exhaust Back-Box

[mintyfresh]

I'm interested in anything from a replacement standard unit to something a bit nicer/louder (not looking for any real power gain)

someone must have something out there?

Cheers

NB: Will have to be posted to Bristol or maybe pickup is an option if your kinda close-ish

Reply here or PM please

[mohammed]

how much did you pay for your back box mate and does he do cat back exhaust system janspeed

 

[GuyH08]

£152 delivered i think...
and i think he does everything mate

 

[mohammed]

how does a cat back janspeed exhaust system sound like mate

 

[GuyH08]

well iv only got the back box...and i think it sounds awsome, not too loud, not too chavy, but just right. on idle you cant really hear it...but once you get going you can.

 

[mohammed]

[GuyH08]

yeh, i would reconmend mph, and deffo the janspeed one (Y)

 

[mohammed]

my standard exhaust has had it. it feels like its gona blow any minute

 

[GuyH08]

best get a janspeed one then lol

 

[mohammed]

thats what i'm gona look for mate thanks for the information

 

[GuyH08]

no problem mate

 

[mohammed]

[GuyH08]

alloys, open mouth grill, backbox, gear knob, cg16de air box with k&n pannel filter, rev counter, seat covers, cd player,

thats about it lol

 

[mohammed]

when you started mod your car what was the first thing you done to it. i won't to mod mine but don't know where to start

 

[GuyH08]

Seat covers
cd player
alloys
Exhaust
Cg16de air box
rev counter
gear knob
open mouth grill

thats the order, just start off small

if youve got a pre-facelift then attempt a open mouth grill

i want to start on handling first. have you heard of whiteline are they any good

 

[GuyH08]

yeh they pretty good, what you thinking. a strut brace or anti roll bars?
there omp that do handling bits too

 

[mohammed]

my car is lowered as it is. i'm thinking of front strut brace and rear or if they do any special offer on handling kit or something like that

 

[GuyH08]

dont really think they make a huge differece, lowering is best you can do

 

[mohammed]

i throught if you put a front strut brace and rear you can take bends faster

 

[GuyH08]

well yeh, it helps, but lowering is the most effective option, but as you already have that then a strut brace will be good

 

[mohammed]

how much are strut braces and my cars got air con which one fits it

 

[GuyH08]

not sure about what ones fit with air con...

but this is basically what you want - http://rallynuts.com/motorsport/K11...e_Front_Upper_Steel_Nissan_Micra_K11_3115.asp

 

[mohammed]

thanks for that (Y)

IMO, get something stainless made up.

And I have A/C, P/S etc, the OMP upper strut brace fitted fine.

 

[mohammed]

does that help with performance or janspeed better for that

 

[joesouthgate]

having something stainless made if a much better option. my cat back was less than 300 was completely how i asked it to be. came with a lifetime guarantee. or you could buy a janspeed backbox which is roughtly half the price, is not a cat back, just a backbox and will snap off in 18months!

 

[mohammed]

i have been quoted from r j tuning in birmingham 250 for a cat back custom made exhaust system

 

[joesouthgate]

thats about right. its by far the best option, best performance, and you can choose design and ho much or little noise it makes.

problem is the more noise it makes the more fuel you will use

 

[mohammed]

problem is the more noise it makes the more fuel you will use
i didn't no that and what about if its got less noise is it less fuel

 

[joesouthgate]

it will use more fuel because it is a fact that you will not be able to stop your right foot when it makes such an awesome noise!
