    Been a while but the clubby has been unregoed since August finally got around to getting it back on the road and got it registered on Monday forgot how much fun it is :D anyway finally been able to give the new diff a decent work out certainly helped with its low down sluggishness due to the size of the cam she picks up a lot quicker and pulls even harder than it did from 3000rpm still needs a retune badly but glad to be back driving it again and annoying my neighbours haha really need to get around to starting a thread on my sv89 too but here’s a couple of pics

    Lol, I will admit it I was trying to work out what it meant :wacko:    I agree with the above, cars looks sensational, great work.  I am not normally a fan of a bonnet scoop but that looks really nice on yours.

    I actually don’t like the vn group a bulge I will remove it when I get the roof and wing etc painted and find a better bonnet anyways pics of the exhaust will get some better ones next time it’s on the hoist started with this

    Put in some flanges before the cats

    Tail pipes and 3 inch tips painted all the piping in high temp flat black

    Need to play with the rear mount to straighten the tips

    Nope each bank is separate old school style did consider a merge and still might eventually but was just modifying what was there already to be a bit more street friendly for now although it would be way over the db limit feel better driving it with a complete system rather than hacked at the diff

    Yea right, personally don’t like the sound of them separate, but its not my car ;-)    H pipe would be easy to add if you wanted to take the bark out, merge means a bit more of a redesign and work.

    bolts straight in. Just need the pinion modded so you can use the m78 flange.

     

    My t5 with 4.11 was only 2500ish. Never had an issue.
