Been accumulating these bits and pieces for a while now... keen to get them in and feel the results :)
Also, if anybody has some good battery recommendations,, please advise - need a replacement as current battery has packed up.
Cheers
Have FD discs, pads, SS lines and racing brake fluid on a GS and it has noticeably sharpened up the braking even on normal roads. Much firmer pedal feel.
I just installed the larini sports cats on my car which has Euro manifolds from the factory and it is savagely loud with the x pipe and Tubis. Sounds like a race car. The car revs so much more freely too. Also had the air filter installed. Don't have to worry about cat break-up now as matt said...
Thanks all for the advice and contacts

Installation most likely in about 3 weeks so will report and hopefully a video to follow.
Will also be installing a BMC air filter and a full FD brake upgrade, along with a suspension setup. Looking forward to the results ! :)
With these installed the full system will consist of Euro 4 bolt...
Bruce the car already has the manifolds, X pipes and Tubis so just completing the system w the cats.
And yes the wife does know!
Might also look into getting the car remapped as well or the FD drive by wire module.
I have just ordered the Larini 4 bolt sports cats for the GranSport, primarily to let the engine breathe better and stay clear of the risk of the cats breaking up.
My full setup will include:
Euro 4 bolt manifolds
Larini sports cats
Larini X pipe
Tubi mufflers (no valves)
Also have a BMC air...
Indeed George. Keeping the cars clean is a struggle with so much dust around. It's a beautiful and quiet little pocket though and the dirt road keeps traffic levels to an absolute minimum.
Thanks to all for the kind words.
Was giving the garage a good clean out this afternoon and thought it would be a nice chance to take some pics of the GS. Please excuse the dust; a bath is well overdue! ;)
And one of the Spider:

Thanks to all for clearing this up as mine does this for a minute or so when warming up or a few seconds when driving off after a short while stationary.
