RS*R Invidia


Finally got my new exhaust on. Its pretty quiet, but sounds great. It unfortunately, fits like ass, which means my downpipe gasket is blowing (thanks to a sheered bolt). So, next time I'm home, Ali is going to drill out the bolt and weld a piece of flexi section in the DP.

I've always felt Nissan couldn't really be arsed (unintentional pun) when designing the S14/a's rear end. My car looks rather unremarkable next to Morf's S13. This is outside Ali's place, UNIT18, just before we took my exhaust off. I collected my RS*R invidia today. It looks like 2.75" piping, but it should be fine for my spec, and I'm hyped to get it on.

Perforated eardrums

I'm swapping my drainpipe for an RS*R Invidia, so I got Ali to remove my old system so I can make the swap on Tuesday.

The car was practically undriveable with an open downpipe. The whole car violently reverberated at 3K RPM (the exact rev range I needed to cruise around Milton Keynes), and it felt like someone was letting a shotgun off in the car every time it popped or banged.

I made a quick video. I'll try and get a drive by shot before putting the new exhaust on.
