My Purple End

[Sulli]

Got the new system fitted today - big thanks to MIJ Performance in Walsall. Very professional, very friendly, very helpful, and most imprtantly a very very good job.
They also slightly offset the backbox as I wanted it coming out at a slight angle, and the quality of fitting and placement under the car is very good

2.5" Stainless Steel System in TD304 steel, Titanium backbox with removable baffle. Handbuilt.

dribble ,drool . thats not fair i want one now ,i'm gonna sulk . anyone got a spare £400 quid lying about so i can get one . it's all for a good cause so i can tell everyone else how good they are. pleeeaaase

[Sulli]

It sounds awesome. Fairly quiet on tickover, and when cruising, but when you floor it it sounds wicked.

[psbarham]

oh sod off, thats just cruel and unusual . i am really gonna sulk now in fact i'm gonna stamp my feet as well. thats just the sort of system i have been looking for

[Sulli]

I wouldn't have done it yet had my backbox not have fallen off last weekend (would never have justified that to the missus!) - but needs must

When you do get it done, I would really recommend MIJ Performance - good prices, good setup - and Jay there has a pretty awesome Skyline (915BHP when he has the engine finished next week apparently!). I booked in for first thing this morning, as I wanted to be back for this afternoon. Was there just before 9, when they opened - car in workshop at 8.55!

After consulting me on what I wanted, exactly, and listening to their advice, and choosing the backbox, the work started and I sat in reception watching a DVD! They consulted me all the way through the work, and I was free to walk into worksho at any time to have a look. Work was completed at 11.30, car left up on ramps for me to inspect, and I was asked if I was happy, or if anything wanted changing.

And for 400 notes, what more could you ask?

[psbarham]

spot on mate will definatly go there i think , they sound like a good bunch , and i want a go in that skyline it should be a bit nippy with that power

Silly question time.....but why is the tip that colour - did you ask for it ?

It was one of their new ones with the removable baffle, and the tip is titanium and it's meant to be like that.
I thought it was unusual, and suits the colour of the car. In fact on the car, the reflection of the indigo blue in it looks pretty cool.

Sulli, when are you going to post some pictures of your car looking anything other than pristine - even your drive is imaculate. I'm starting to think of you as CVR4s very own Howard Hughes, shuffling around with tissue boxes on your feet, polishing anything that doesn't move!

The car and exhaust look great, you must be really pleased at your purchase.

PS. If Sulli is HH then I'd be Swampy

[Sulli]

cheers, I think.
The drive - well that's my mum and dads. Though my block paving is OK too - I laid it last year
I wash it every couple of weeks - just jetwash, shampoo and shammy - only takes an hour . Luckily it was Diamond Brited last year, and after I got it I spent 3-4 hours doing a 2 stage Meguairs thing, including a Carnuba wax.
I can't spend too much time on it - have a little daughter, work full time, and not allowed to
Thanks anyway

[Brunty]

When we get to meet up you'll have to spare me 5mins to coach me in proper car care! I'm a touch envious.

your exhaust looks pukker and the tip def goes with the colour of the car and as for the other pics of the motor i just needed to put me shades on due to the gleaming paintwork. Your motor is the boll--ks
Few more questions, is your exhaust from the cat back ?

[Trow]

Man , that's one NICE car - very very jelous!!!! good on ya mate!!

[Sulli]

Thanks for all the comments. Almost glad my backbox fell off
It does actually look even more purple, 'in the flesh'

caishanvr4 - It's a full system from the cat back

[_simon_]

I've heard that the titanium tips glow when they're hot. Have you seen this?

[Quad Al]

Looks the Danglys Sulli, I want to see this motor it looks a
"molly mint ball"!
Are you going to Japfest in May?
Go on you know you want to!!
Cheers,
Al.

Just reminiscing, and can you believe the new owner has replaced the decat with the cat, and changed the backbox?

[psbarham]

[pezza]

It did sound v sweet indeed...

I can - I've done the same - De-Cat didn't seem to make much difference to my VR-4. And the backbox was a standard one, so that had to go!
