  1. What exhaust is it mate.. JASMA is on mine too but im sure thats just a Japanese test that all Japan exhausts must pass.. I think the exhaust note has to be under 95db to gain the JASMA approval plate.

    Will let u know.. Gonna have a ask around see if anyone local can do it cheap but good.. Im thinkin Welsh coast customs in Newport but dunno what kind of prices they would charge.

    Still need to know if its definately Mild steel tho.. Im sure the HKS systems etc are full stainless but ive no idea about these fujitsubo exhausts.

  2. Cheers for that mate.. Yea if i could get it welded, just for the time being that would be my best option.. Then save up and get a new system in the summer.

    It may seem a bit of a silly question to ask as obviously stainless steel doesnt rust as such, but there is definate rust on the back box connecting pipe where its welded into the back box so thats why ive asked the question.

  3. Thought the exhaust note sounded slightly odd while driving the other day (usually listen to music so dont really hear it on low revs driving) and it sounded like it was blowing from somewhere near the backbox.

    Just took a look and yup i can feel air where the pipe that comes from the backbox unit and backbox pipe (that joins the backbox to the middle section)is. Also noticed some rusting on the middle section on the part that goes vertical towards the flange to join back box to middle section.

    I was under the impression the system was stainless steel but obviously i was wrong. To be honest im not exactly sure what model it is but ive been researching and i think it looks most like the Legalis R version.

    Can someone clear up that this is not stainless steel? If its not would it be ok to get it welded up as my funds are extremely low right now.

    Mucho appreciation.

  4. Yea i had to replace 1 last MOT.. Those grey "screws" arent screws really.. And yes they are a bastard to get out, i ended up popping em out with a flat blade screwdriver.. not ideal but got them off.

  5. Yea just wait and they will come.. managed to get myself a black 1:) .. was looking forward to putting some volks on there but no wheel changing :( ...

    Golded all licenses yesterday nite.. wow ! theres the odd 1 or 2 which are stupidly difficult !

  6. LOL thank fook its not just me then !! what a ballache ! hahaha.. glad its not a seized caliper as this close to crimbo ive not got the funds to be spending.. Need a new battery tho.. cold weather killed mine..

    Cheers all for the heads up :(

  7. All i can say is what a game.. Been loving every second and yes 90% of the standard cars dont look that bad at all.. still such a shame why we couldnt change the wheels :lol:

    Been hammering the licnese tests and special events..

    Completed all karting gold, Grand tour (3/5 gold) and golds on all the Loeb challenge.

    All golds on all licenses and just about to start the S license :/

  8. Meh that is really pants !! i read about the wheels not being able to be changed but didnt know it was on all non premium cars !! thats basically writing off 800 cars because changing wheels is a fundamental thing for me on how the car looks..

    Shame but ill still be heading to asda at 12.. Hope im not too dissapointed :/

  9. Doubtful of it gettin postponed again.. i think sony even had to push forward their release date to the 24th because of the leaked copies out there. It was supposed to be December.

    Yea would be nice to see a GT in there but still.. over 1000 different cars (albeit most of them are the same car just different versions) i really cannot wait to tune up the Glanza :wub:

  10. I may be in a minority but the COD games really rely on luck rather than skill in 90% of the games.. I had MW2 for PS3 and now ive got black ops for PC.. PC is much worse to play online than PS3.. Its like "Jump,prone,shoot,get up run a bit then same again".

    Dont get me wrong ive had rounds of 22/3, 18/1 etc but then the next round, same players, same map even i can barely keep a 1:1 K/D ratio lol

    Very little skill in getting a kill, its a combo of lag,speed of hand/eyes and if the person has seen you first(or they spawn infront of you)

    £40 on PC which is the most expensive game ive ever paid for and sadly its on steam so cant even trade it in :/ .. SP is good tho..

    For me its Bad company 2 all the way. Much less luck envolved.

  11. Ive been building my own for about 10 years now and to be perfectly honest with you this isnt the cheapest method anymore.

    If you are really limited to £300 my suggestion would be Ebay.. Dont be put off by the fact that its ebay, there are many sellers on there with very high feedback selling good spec pc's for about that price. The reason i say this is that they can offer better prices because they buy in a bulk amount of components which then makes them much cheaper than if you bought just 1 of each item.

    Im currently running a 3ghz quad core,4gb DDR2 800 and a 5770 HD all on a gigabyte mobo. Personally id say that if you get 4gb DDR3 you will be fine and if you can get an intel cpu all the better. As for graphics my 5770 isnt anywhere close to being the best card out now but i can play 9/10 games on max settings with no problem. All in lovely direct x 11 .

    Hav a browse on ebay.. see which 1's interest you then post a few on here and we can look thru them and decide which will give you the best bang for buck :)
