My Rado 2.0 16v

Had my new Jetex system turn up this morning, it's a cat
back system only, I'm poor

Me and a mate had to do a creative repair last week as the old one decided to
fall off and kiss the tarmac for several miles

The old system welded and blowing like a goodun'




New and old together

Nice n shiny!




Worth ever single penny lol! Looks like I got a few flat spots re-appearing in the paint to take care of to....hopefully before the next meet!

looks good mate, a lot more soild then the old one

bodgery ftw looks alot better fella. Rado looks pretty solid underneath too!

Was a bit bored today and as my badges/emblems were looking a lttle tired I decided to remove them and spray them satin black. I've seen this on a few couple of other Rado's and liked it, so with nowt to loose this is how they turned out! All comments welcome

looking good

Wish they did a bolt on performance exhaust for a caddy

looking pretty good though mate

luvvin it

There isn't that many around for the Rado compared to the golf etc....glad I found one that I think looks the part

haha just clocked the cable ties on the original exhaust mounts

lol thats why I had to replace the system quicker than i wanted....the rubber mounts broke and left the centre box dragging along the ground! Have to admit they are still there atm.....none came with the Jetex system so need to find some

ahh poop pop into halfrauds and order some? if not gsf?

I have a mate with a tyre/exhaust place so should have some new ones this week with a bit o luck

good good ill give you a shout when i get back about that mopping you have slightly seen how bad it is lol

Not a problem mate - looking forward to it!

i will be amazed to see the result if you havent got the exhaust rubbers by then give me a shout ill get them on trade.

Sweet!!

no worries fella

Was changing my cam belt today and decided to do the fuel filter as well as the sefvice history shows it changed 9 years ago....hmmmm prety sure they should be done more often than that!!

anyways....took a hack saw to it after changing and this is what i found:



Thats a lot od sh*t in the element as it would have started out nearly white!! Just proves regular servicing works lol!
