Found a spoon silenced b-pipe for a bargain price...sounds much less-gayer than the supersprint un-silenced version...;)

Yeah, it is nice to do it a bit at a time, mine was fairly modded and is now back to standard (less the springs and JDM arb/tie bar, but they are getting taken off on Monday) and tbh it is actually really nice to drive, quiet and refined :cool:

I was looking at SR-25s car and it reminded me of mine, he has my old wheels.. Ah well let's see what becomes of my next car :cool:

Just noticed that :mad:

The inside of the tailpipe is minging :badrazz:
 
Best colour :cool:
Looks very Tidy.

Have you got a sound clip of the Spoon B with the Standard Back-box?

cheers, no I haven't got a sound clip mate sorry, it's ok I suppose..sounds a bit raspy from outside and pretty quiet on the inside.

paid 40quid for the engine detail iirc...not very expensive, he'll do a paint correction for about 100quid. I'll be having that done when the weather improves. I don't wash the car very often through the winter months, probably every 4-6weeks. I think this helps the condition of the paint tbh, a good layer of protection and minimal washes keeps the self inflicted demons at bay.
