TTR 509 Report post Posted September 20, 2016 Just measured how loud my car is. Is it a Typo on the website for the noise limit? 101dB static and 87.5dB drive by? Seems like it'd be the other way round. If so I'm fine for static as my car is around 77-83db on idle, depending on whether it's a cold start or not. But there's no way I'd pass an 87.5dB drive by Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lauren 2259 Report post Posted September 20, 2016 Cars will always be noisier, on drive-by. Induction noise, wheels etc. A static noise test just measures the exhaust. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
surrey86 352 Report post Posted September 20, 2016 TTR's car is the one with exhaust tips wide enough to stick your foot into, it's not that quiet! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's not 101dB either though, i'm certain it will be fine despite bedford having an abnormally low limit all the time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
surrey86 352 Report post Posted September 20, 2016 Yeah I don't have a clue about db's tbh, but 101 isn't that stringent; would have thought most would be ok. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You could stick your foot in most of the exhaust systems for the BRZ/86 considering that they're 4.5". Mines only a little bigger at 5" . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Special K 442 Report post Posted October 1, 2016 Hmmm. As I have to miss the last TSS round at Snet next week (in hospital again, my last spine op went wrong) I might be fit enough to do a Bedford in December. It'll be interesting as I've never driven it . . Spec K 1 Ade reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Apex 5 Report post Posted October 2, 2016 I'll book in once I've had the car checked by Abbey, still having the issues in 4th/5th/6th so want to be 100% that the car is 100% before taking it on a proper track. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

surrey86 352 Report post Posted October 19, 2016 Its Mazda on track at Brands on the 2nd. Trackdays.co.uk is a reseller. The Javelin prices will go up as it gets closer. There's two 86's signed up so far. It's been a real friendly atmosphere at both Javelin days I've done so I'm quite looking forward to it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Surely you just need to ensure they put big enough silencers on the car. 101dB is still pretty loud! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
