Well been letting the car slip alot as of late and just use it as a day to day runner now.
The car runs as sweet as a nut with the amount of work (Engine / Suspension / Mechanical) I have put into it but I must say I have lost the love for it.
Last week I decided it was enough of the miltek and plus I have a 200 diffuser with Akra carbon surrounds thats sat for months in the shed and I wanted it on as its a far better look.
So the decision was to chop the miltek system and change the tips or fit a very low milage 200 exhaust system.
For the cost of £8.00 for two exhaust sleeves I went and fitted the Clio 200 exhaust system and saved the Miltek from being chopped and wielded.
Along with that I got all all my spare bottom arms stripped, This was a bit of s puzzle until I went to my garage and there is a couple of easy steps.
1, Take the rubber boot off and grind the ball joint
2, Wield a large nut of the top with some wield inside
3, Buzz it off with a gun and jobs done.
Last but not least there was an oil change with new genuine parts right down to the sump plug and washer.
As always some pictures for viewing.

So my manifold is now a 7 out of 10 f**ked and its about time I sorted it.
So far I have managed to buy the following for the exhaust.
206515699R x 1 - Exhaust Mount
7703602318 x 1 - Screw / Washer
8200486488 x 1 – Support
8200486487 x 1 – Support
8200444058 x 2 - Exhaust Rubber
7700114234 x 1 - Manifold Gasket
7703034303 x 10 - Manifold Nut ( pack of 10 )
8200477291 x 10 - Manifold Stud ( pack of 10 )
All I need now is a new manifold and then the exhaust set up will be perfect. Im going to be going down the toyosport route as its £170 and my current toyo has been on the car 4 years.
I have also been getting some parts sorted for the 182 Trophy along with 197 bottom arms to rebuild.
