fd2r rear bumper touches my twin tip muffler!!

[David321]

Hey guys ive tried to put on my fd2r rear bumprr and it fits only problem is that the twin tip muffler is touching the kit and could melt / burn it.
Any suggestions on what muffler i should get for a decent price , was thinking a single tip Canon muffler.
Any good decent price place to have a look at was thinking liverpool.exhaust.

Orr go to an exhaust shop and they can make it hang a little lower. Shouldn't cost more than 50-100

Where did you even get the type r kit? O:

[David321]

[Areis]

liverpool mufflers is kinda a rip off, should go to hume mufflers. they guys a stoner but does a good job =)

When i installed my FD2r kit i decided to cut the left muffler tip off. then i drove it for 2 days and melted my bumper, following that i paid 150 to cut off the melted bits underneath the bumper and mold the rest straight lol. So my suggestion is not to drive it around, change it asap. I got a Kakimoto Racing Universal Silencer - GT1.0Z from nengun for about $ 450 shipped from memory, sounds great, nice and deep. http://www.nengun.com/kakimoto-racing/universal-silencer-gt10z

Yeah no problem, ill try and get a video of my exhaust on the weekend so you can get a good idea of what to expect if you buy the same one. And as for the noise, it is pretty loud.

Very nice sound to it, oh u changed the whole exhaust right? notice any feels or gains or any negative impact after the new exhaust?

[black8thgen]

actually, did u get the full catback? which requires modification to fit an fd1 right? i only got a kakimoto muffler

[Mr Abzii]

Yeah black8thgen its the same as yours, it is just the muffler. As for gains in performance i feel a slight increase in mid and top range. Im going be parting out the kakimoto muffler within the next 2 months because i need a larger muffler + varex to go 3 inch all the way through for the k24 conversion :( but i like the sound it gives now, perfect for a daily drive.

How much did or is your k24 conversion going to cost? and where did you get it from?

[Mr Abzii]

Dont know yet, ill pm you when i want to sell up :) its going to cost about 8,000 - 10,000 all up. JDM yard is going to source the parts and do the conversion.

[black8thgen]

EGB had a k24 put in by jdmyard as well. if u didnt already know that, he could be a good source of info !

[Mr Abzii]

Thanks for the suggestion, i get all my info from JDMyard. They went through with the k24 conversion and they have it all understood :-)
