    Hi,

    I have a Cobra Resonated Cat Back Exhaust for sale.

    I have driven it for under 4000 miles.

    Everything works as it should and in good condition.

    I have new gaskets I can provide to the new owner.

    No bolts as these are being used on my new system.

    Comes with genuine Cobra Black Tips as seen in photo

    Collection from South East London due to size. 

    Price is £350

    Hi, thanks for the message. Your probably familiar with the exhaust but I've put a link to which one it is below. I got it last year and did less than 2,000 miles with it on before selling the car. I wanted a stock look so had the standard exhaust tips on it which went back on the original when sold. You can either use the standard tips from your exhaust or ask H&S to sell you pretty much any type you like.

    Know the system well. Just wondering, do the additional resonators affect ground clearance.

    How much do you want for it

    There was myself and afew others who knew about how TD was up to shady stuff.

     

    I've owned my 86 for about 3 years and have known about this for the past 2 years. I never ever made a thread about it simply because TD had almost a cult like status and anything negative you said about then would get shot down.

     

    Poor parts, poor design, awful quality. Stories of Mike scamming and extorting other owners of this car platform. There are countless stories about his shady practice and even instances where he had over charged his customers only to later stitch himself up and go quiet on people.

     

    His constant reply of 'the courier has it' and 'I'm packaging the item today'. All of these kinds of messages and then not providing tracking numbers etc is just lies when really he hasn't done anything.

     

    Even regarding his forged builds, other owners have questioned why he uses 'skunk2' conrods and his reply was simply 'most people for what they use it for will do fine with this type of rod's' knowing full well that it's a poor quality product - certainly a product he's willing to fit into your engine but not his own.

     

    But his actions have consequences and I'm glad people can finally see how he conducts his business.

    @Whizo. I think both can learn from this. Understably so, you are frustrated. Ignoring previous correspondance torquen have had with other customers, lets look only at yours because it is a thread started by yourselves.

    In your defense, it seems they have lacked communication and you have a right to be frustrated.

    But in their defense, they have been nothing but polite and curteous to you in the language they use in spite of getting a bad 'vibe' from your messages which i can also tell.

    In terms of the ETA, unfortunately it almost seemed like you was forcing them to give you an ETA on the item even though they couldnt. Imagine they gave you a random ETA based on this and it happened to be inaccurate. It would be plausible that you would then attack them and call them liars (an assumption im making which could be wrong or right) but in either way with regards to the ETA the company is in a lose-lose situation and i hope you can understand this.

    However, you are right that if promised to message you by a given date, they should honour this.

    Either way, slating doesnt do anything, so just leave it and move on. You can move on and the company can try to improve on areas of weakness.

    Hey I am very interested however unlike tomei cobra borla etc I can’t find anything online to read up on Fuji’s UEL quality or reviews so fourth. What made you decide to buy the FUJI uel vs UELs with more reviews online? Anything you have worth mentioning would be helpful as I do like it but spending £450 and being unable to find any reviews online puts me off as I’m sure you can understand.
     
    thanks
    Its the same as tomei. Just rebranded
