i'm pretty sure they won't say anything else and won't take it any further than a little moan off at me, if anything else happens i'll write them a letter i think, just noteing that i am trying to be as quiete as pos and that i have researched into how to turn the car off quicker and i'm looking for a baffle too.

i'm pretty sure if they phoned the police or the enviromental health they wouldn't do anything anyways, i can just imagine the conversation,

neighbor- "i would like to make a complaint about a car down my road which has a very loud exhaust"

police/EH-" are they reving the car or raceing the car infront of the property and do you think they are causeing distubance diliberatly"

neighbor- " well it's when he's pulling onto his drive late at night, it's very loud and wake my kids up"

police/EH-"well unless he is causeing a disturbance diliberatly and reving the car loudly then i'm afraid the loudness of his car whilst pulling onto his driveway is not really something we can do much about i'm afraid"

well at least thats how i hope it will go:)

not sure whats said previously as theres alot of posts to read so cant be arsed lol.

 

i would say that the police wouldnt bother you but then when its us they always seem to!!!!

 

my mate parked his car in a spot outside his house where his neibour normaly parks, its not there space its anyones and my mate didnt do it out of spite there was no other spaces.

 

they woke up the next morning to the whole of the passengers side scrathed up!!!!!!!!!

 

police? bloody useless they dont want to know.

and they wonder why people take things into there own hands!

 

sorry went a bit of topic there :p

 

on topics. i live in a dead end street and most neibours are older and i have no problems but i think im lucky.

 

mind you i did get tosser across the road moan about my dog once cause she barked till 2am.which is fair enough but he could have come up to me and spoke to me because its the first and last time it happened.

 

and he got the check to use the hose when the ban was on!

Mate i had this f**ker last summer with a neighbour.

I went out at 9pm for fish n chips. As i pulled round the front of my house (my parking is at the rear - mew style) this guy two doors down flys out his front door and proceeds to halt me in the middle of the road.

 

I stopped and he was actually "in" my drivers window shouting abuse at me about "how load my car is" "it shakes his kitchen" "just woke his kids up" and "why does it take you so long to park it"

 

He called me a wanker and f**cking prick!

 

I couldn't believe it and just simply asked him if i was breaking the speed limit on the road? He blurted more abuse at me so i just drove off.

 

Ten mins later i get back with the chips and hes out again, reckons im doing it on purpose and hes going to call the council!

 

Now, i could of laid this guy out in the street, or carried on pissing him off every time i passed his house.

 

But, ive ate humble pie and stuck my baffle in after 8pm at night and before 8am in the morning. Only because i dont want my car scratched and dented while im at work :rolleyes:

 

Its so annoying and im not the sort of person to lay down and take shit like that. but you gotta use your head in situations that involve your car!

 

In the end he apologised for how he reacted and said that he couldn't believe how my car has quietened down. I told him i spent £600 on a super dupa exhaust that has a baffle just to keep my neighbours happy.

Hes now my best mate (even though i f**king hate him :eyebrows: )

Dont let the turbo come on line for the last couple of min before you get home and there is no need to sit there with the car tickingover.

 

 

Agreed, Turbo timers are a gimmick IMO. I am getting a message from beyond.........I can see it now..........yes! its a Tanabe super touring exhaust coming..........93db.........neighbours love it and throw a BBQ, ......your so popular.......its fading now........its gone lol. Mystic Groover to the rescue ;)
