  • New Scorpion Corsa D VXR Full System

    Exhaust specialists Scorpion have unveiled their very latest design; a full Sports Cat system for the new Vauxhall Corsa D VXR.

    Their comprehensive new system is fully interchangeable with the OEM exhaust, meaning that each component can be fitted in stages, allowing enthusiasts to spread the cost in tuning their car. All parts are precision fabricated here in the UK from aircraft grade T304 stainless steel.

    scorpion_corsa_vxr_back_boxThe range consists of a smart rear back box, with its unique triangular tail pipe, which perfectly fits the factory bumper aperture for a superb finish. This is sold with a free-flowing stainless mid-pipe which dramatically improves gas flow and sound. For those looking for ultimate power and aural improvement, the turbo down pipe and Sports Catalyst can be ordered to give up to a 10% improvement in horsepower and torque, yet with total legality on noise and emissions.

    Prices starts at £169.95 for the Turbo down pipe, £395.00 for the Sports cat and just £362.95 for the entire cat-back system. With the flexibility of being able to swap and change with factory components, making all the right noises needn’t break the bank!

    drifting in the UK to new levels that have not been reached before.
    We now have the best tracks,best drivers coupled together with the best spectator accessible
    venues for street courses, this will be a huge year for for JDM Allstars.

    Round 1-Newcastle City-April 4th/5th

    The first round will be held at a secret location inside Newcastle city. In a partnership with
    Newcastle City council we will be bringing drifting to the forefront and exposing it to masses, in
    this two day street festival. This will also kick of leg 1 of the JDM Allstars Action sports series
    and also kicking of for the third year in a row in the north east.

    Round 2- Lydden Hill/Lydd Raceway May 2nd-May 4th

    JDM teams up with Driftracing LTD/BHP promotions .This three day festival with series of events in the south east with a two day drift competition at lydd raceway and finish with JDM Allstars Round 3 at Lydden Hill for the BHP Show. With the 2008 finals being so successful Lydden Hill still proves to be one of the most demanding tracks on the calendar.

    Round 3- Wembley August 15th/16th

    JDM Allstars will return to this prestigious and now World famous venue with our purpose built
    street circuit, which will be expanded for 2009. After the huge success of the 2008 event this
    historic venue will host a great festival brought to the capital like never before. Two day event
    this year. Also this will be leg 2 of the JDM All stars action sports series.

    JDM All stars teams up with Redline Events at there UK renowned Trax event. Here JDM Allstars
    will be showcased in front of the biggest capacity crowds at one of the UK’s most famous car
    shows. This world renowned track will test drivers to the absolute limit with its high speed
    entries. This will be a fitting end to the 2009 series giving the capacity crowds and Drift fans a
    day out they will really remember.

    The 2009 series will still end up as a triple crown series as in 2008, as drivers will be able to drop
    there worst score or miss a round. This should make for an interesting ending to the season will
    lots of drivers going for the 2009 title. With 2-3 day events at each venue there should be lots
    more action involved.
