akyakapotter Posted May 23, 2015 Author Share Posted May 23, 2015 Thought my exhaust was blowing last night jacked it up at work this morning turns out it's a bit worse than expecting God sake Quote Link to post Share on other sites
akyakapotter Posted May 23, 2015 Author Share Posted May 23, 2015 my options now are to purchase a brand spanking new nurspec r system at a cost of £674.34 or get this welded up and get a flexie pipe made to go inplace of the decat pipe i have as im 98% sure that its what has caused this to happen.

turbo Grant Posted May 23, 2015 Share Posted May 23, 2015 Just get it welded and deffo get a flexi put in Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Amjad Posted May 23, 2015 Share Posted May 23, 2015 Unlucky with the exhaust. But great to see yet another EP being used properly on track Heard exceedingly positive feedback on the NS2Rs (I have a pair to go on my car very soon)! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
akyakapotter Posted May 23, 2015 Author Share Posted May 23, 2015 (edited) Its ok mate I'll get it sorted yeah can't wait to go out again at jf2 and give my daily death lol I've been instructed to get an oil cooler before then so that's on the cards aswell tyres im torn between ns2r ad08 & federal 595s Edited May 23, 2015 by akyakapotter Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DevonGT Posted May 23, 2015 Share Posted May 23, 2015 ad08r would be my choice. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
akyakapotter Posted May 28, 2015 Author Share Posted May 28, 2015 (edited) Exhaust got welded up yesterday not the most preety weld but it will do was mig welded so see if it lasts but for free you can't complain. Once I get paid I'll get myself a bolt in flexie and replace that with the under car decat section. Edited May 28, 2015 by akyakapotter Quote Link to post Share on other sites
GlanzaJim Posted May 28, 2015 Share Posted May 28, 2015 They put new flange on aswell, local garage to me woulda cost atleast £30 for that so you got a steal for free lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Amjad Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 AD08R are meant to be good all round but are the most expensive. RSR are the same price as Nankang but not as good in the wet Quote Link to post Share on other sites
