Its been a long 3 weeks....back and forth to my exhaust place.....

what started off with a simple quad conversion turned into a lot more work than i originally thought.

i fail to see how longlife can do this is 4 hours!

car went from single side exit to:
* Cat back --> 2 mini back boxes --> X pipe --> Straight through pipes to single exit
then
* spent a weekend getting the 2nd exit cut and sorting out the black carbon filter box and plugging the pipes
then
* Cat back --> 2 mini back boxes --> X pipe <-- during which the heat shield crumbled and fell off
* Getting in touch with Jaime @ Sopers to get a new heat shield
* Heat shield getting lost in the post
* Arrived today at the garage!
then
* Cat back --> 2 mini back boxes --> X pipe --> single back box each side --> Chrome black staggered tail pipes

i'm UBER excited to be picking up the Z tonight.....!

Will post up pictures later this evening!!!

:driving:
 
Ok. Things didn't quite go according to plan. Got into car. Drove 200 metres, dash started flashing, shut down!!

Battery is kaput. Luckily this nice guy helped me push the car over to the side whilst a London bus driver beeped me every thirty seconds. Ass!

Another nice guy walked passed my car and asked if I needed a jump start. Very nice of him to offer.

Jumped the car and drove home.

Now....exhaust! Looks good. Too dark for pics :-(
Though there is an odd rattle. Could be my new heat shield.
