    Wish I Was More Popular With Birds

    I've had that before as well. It's not that bad to clean up... the worst I've seen is one gigantic splat that covered about a third of the top of the boot

    Windscreen glare

    I'd have to look, but I think the place I got mine from is no longer in business. All you'd need to do is source a new binnacle (either from Toyota, or eBay or somewhere) and get someone to stick some alcantara over it, shouldn't cost much.

    Windscreen glare

    I've got the alcantara covered binnacle - it doesn't remove glare entirely but it matches the rest of the glare so you don't actually notice it. I've got the seat as low as possible as well

    91dB seems more right... I think! Checked mine at Curbs and was 93.9dB - can check at TD if you want, as long as Mike is ok with it

    I've only ever seen them measure to one side, there's no reason for 1 exhaust to be louder than the other, unless you have a dummy exhaust... so they probably don't bother and just take 1 reading. Will be at Curbs next week, not sure if you're off for Easter then but could pop by and do a comparison?

    I'm still not convinced that's right (measuring between them) - is it possible it means they measure each exhaust (45deg angle to the side) and take the average of the 2 readings and class the car as that value?

    Doesn't seem loud at all? That static test is slightly higher than mine though?

    Manifolds

    Milltek non-res cat back + TD manifold (stock 2nd cat) - 94dB static, dunno about drive by but I was on the radar at Croft last year when flat foot shifting almost right next to the check - no issues elsewhere. Check with Mike at TD but I think their resonated exhaust is quieter than a non-res Miltek so you should be fine with track days.

    Well and truly dive bombed there!

    Faith or Rob would be the ones to ask I think, pretty sure they both did what you're wanting...

    Parking Sensors

    The front ones aren't Toyota though, and also work on track as I/we found out when Adrian took me out in his car
  12. Rule book was thrown out already last year with @Keethos running illegal body work!

    TTR's San Remo BRZ

    Guessing you can't use them if they're on neither 1a or 1b list? TSS isn't worth it if you're not competing tbh

    TTR's San Remo BRZ

    Mine are currently yellow and shiny again but then they're only 2 days old

    TTR's San Remo BRZ

    Are they still yellow on the outside? I melted the coating with a 10 minute session at Blyton
  16. Presumably with a blog you'd have a page that just lists updates (and a separate page with comments for each) so following someone's build/mods would be easier?

    Hello! I've finally put my money where my mouth is!

    Think mine were too as I don't think it mattered that I wanted them fitting in terms of what cars were available within a week or 2.

    Hi from Amber Performance

    01582 664 735 is also their number

    It'd be such a shame if you somehow managed to get a black bit of rubber stuck in the middle of that 0...

    Another one for not liking them, got annoyed with it in Keith's car driving the whole of 2 minutes to JAE

    Hi from Amber Performance

    They're moving servers, supposed to be back up today / tomorrow I think
  22. I have a feeling this may end up with differing opinions but is it worth having matching front & rear pads? With my limited understanding, I'm thinking having better pads up front will move the bias forward and make the rear a bit more loose as the car will want to sit on it's nose a bit more which would make trail braking a bit more difficult?

    What did Twigman (Ian?) do in the end when he got his car back? Same situation really.
