99 Silverstone - was back in 1999 one of the doctors (large middle eastern man with the hood down - quite the sight!) in Navan Hospital had one, I was still in school.. going down for lunch and he vtec'd past.. thats where the fascination started!

In the last few weeks:

Year Colour \ Reg Location

99 SS \ D Baldoyle
99 SS \ D Howth (Probably same as above one, mugen(?) front bumper)
99 SS \ ? Carlow
99 MCB \ CW Carlow
?? GPW \ ? Trim-Batterstown road, Meath
00 MCB \ ? Drogheda
01 MCB \ D Harington St. Dublin
04 SS \ D Navan Road Dublin (Only one I have driven past in my own S)
04 BB Johnstown Navan, Meath
07 SS or MR \ ? Drogheda

Probably a few more but thats all I can remember!
?? GPW \ ? Trim-Batterstown road, Meath That would be me

I haven't seen any other ss around and I've been up and down that road alot in the last month so theres a good chance its mine. Haven't seen yours in a good while though, and its definitely something I'd notice!

Guys this forum is a maze - tryng to find the best place to post a request for a 2nd hand or new cat....

Rattle in the standard exhaust, defo coming from the cat, gonna get it on a ramp tomorrow to make sure it's not a heat shield but i have a feeling it's the cat alright, Same noise when I thump it as when its on idle.

Would one from a '07 fit?
