I got a Gmax 50mm lowering kit, which costs around £100 and bigboystoys fitted the kit in one day for another £100. I’ve just got the car back today haven’t had a chance to test it out properly!

Pretty good deal. Bit far for me but I think I'll give them a call & arrange something. I need both lowering & exhaust done.
Thanks for the heads up!!
nice

Want to put an exhaust on mine too, was thinking of going big and getting hole system done i was kinda hoping there was a hole in it as a excuse for getting whole new system as its standard at mo
But MOT results makde it fine lol so gonna hold out for bit longer i thinks next year prob,
Do they do whole systems as well if not anybody know where i can get one from? cheers

I dont know if these guys do the hole system.... give them a call init....
Full system will cost you from 200-500 all depending weather its milf steel system or stainless steel, the brand etc etc...
You can always buy the back bit and then buy the rest later,,,...
I'll be attempting to fit mine tomorrow... seems p!ss easy to do...
cheers

My cars rolling on 15'' bbs rims, I’ve been driving it around a few days now with the new springs, I love it, the springs make such a difference its unbelievable. My mates got a standard 1.6 sri astra I kick his ass around corners, bit wet so I have to take it easy!! lol
If you want a cheap stainless steel exhaust give Top Gear a call a few of my mates work there, they do some fat work and its all hand made with a life time guaranty . I thing a cat back system will cost about £250.
