luke_clifton Posted January 26, 2008 Posted January 26, 2008 Hi, what's your thoughts on the Roger Clark 3" exhaust system, the one with no back box (RCM645). Do you think this exhaust is road legal Roger Clark
luke_clifton Posted January 26, 2008 Author Posted January 26, 2008 Haha, sooo tempting. Been thinking i need new spark plugs etc, so may as well put in a proper order whilst i'm at it Means upgrading my entire exhaust system from the turbo back though... Power gains look huge though.

granby Posted January 27, 2008 Posted January 27, 2008 Hi, what's your thoughts on the Roger Clark 3" exhaust system, the one with no back box (RCM645). Do you think this exhaust is road legal "The RCM “Team Ice”, Straight through Exhaust Rear Section is not for the faint hearted! This has been designed to fit all Imprezas to date and consists simply of a 3" straight through section with no silencer assembly, finished off with a 4.5 slash cut tail pipe that exits the car on a 20 degree angle" Straight through system with no silencer, hmmm let me think.................you've got no chance of that being road legal and it will be bloody loud
fudge Posted January 27, 2008 Posted January 27, 2008 Go for it Gurnars ,, you wont go wrong buying anything from RCM
20withascooby Posted January 27, 2008 Posted January 27, 2008 go for it i wanan see how loud it is lol that will be deafing i reackon
luke_clifton Posted January 27, 2008 Author Posted January 27, 2008 I thought you had a full decat system? I do, Currently got a Hayward & Scott decat downpipe, with a HKS Hiper 3" cat back system. But my HKS system is very old and has develped a leak where the exhaust meets the backbox. So i do need a new exhaust anyway, and it's either a Blitz system or the Roger Clark system. In order for me to have the Roger clark system, i will need to upgrade the entire system to a true 3" system (not tapered at the downpipe). I'm loving that group A rally look of this exhaust. I need to have a good think about going for this system, as i'm still on the fence about upgrading to a new STI.

luke_clifton Posted January 27, 2008 Author Posted January 27, 2008 well either the nur spec or roger clark i think you will be happy with I do love the Japanese brands, almost all my mods are JDM. But i do like how unique the Roger Clark system is (plus power gains have got to be better).
granby Posted January 27, 2008 Posted January 27, 2008 I do love the Japanese brands, almost all my mods are JDM. But i do like how unique the Roger Clark system is (plus power gains have got to be better). I wonder how long it would be before you get pulled with that exhaust
luke_clifton Posted January 27, 2008 Author Posted January 27, 2008 I wonder how long it would be before you get pulled with that exhaust Hmmmmmm..... I'm guessing the first police to see it would pull it. At the moment my car seems to be very police friendly, thinking if it's worth the hassle.

big jay Posted January 28, 2008 Posted January 28, 2008 If you do get it, i'll be interested in you decat down pipe.
luke_clifton Posted January 29, 2008 Author Posted January 29, 2008 If you do get it, i'll be interested in you decat down pipe. Ah exellent mate, i'll keep that in mind. Though tbh it will take me till april at least to save up the money for that full system, so if your still looking in a few months, i'll give you first refusals.

luke_clifton Posted February 13, 2008 Author Posted February 13, 2008 I've had to upgrade getting a new exhaust to URGENT, as i got under to look at it today (lost the burble and strange knocking noise) and the exhaust has almost totally split from the backbox now. Luckily there is 2 hangers on either side of the split, so the exhaust won't hang down. But need to get a new one ASAP, i've also decided to wimp out on the RCM exhaust because i woulden't be able to get another system when the police tell me to change it lol. So i'm currently looking at getting a Blitz nur spec, i might go up to "japperformanceparts" next week as there advertising used nur specs for £375. unless you know somewhere cheaper?

20withascooby Posted February 13, 2008 Posted February 13, 2008 brand new one for bout 410 i htink i saw when i was looking but comes from japan thats all
luke_clifton Posted February 16, 2008 Author Posted February 16, 2008 Your right, a brand new one is not much more. Sumo power do them for £477 (not the cheapest i know) but i think they offer 10% sidc discount + i can collect (if they have them in stock of course).
