hmm, not too sure what the exhust is, ali at sls said it was a janspeed system, dunno, came with the car... the suspension is gaz coil overs, still tweakin the settings tho, and a k+n filter, bushes are next... still running MMC discs that are gonna need some new pads soon, any ideas?

do the MMCs not run special pads?? Your car has a nice stance, looked kinda firm too :wink: You liking the Gaz? I'm sure there's lots using them on seloc who will share their road/track settings with you if you can't be bothered fiddling about with them but then you might enjoy tinkering with them to get them more suited to your driving style? The janspeed is as far as I know the one used on the exige, sounds cool!! :thumbsup

Great fun on the M8, good to cruise along with another S1
