Nah not a straight pipe, just a custom one to replace the old one, guy recommended i get 3" but i said it was too much.. went 2.4" instead. And results: pretty loud.. Gains are noticeable but very less.. will upload a vid soon.
2.4" on a stock r18...raspy??
Which "white one"?Quote:

I would try, but chances are I would get one piece that wasn't up to my OCD standards and smash the whole thing to smithereens :-p
You have a GF that does it? That's marriage material right there man, rope that shit down while the chance is there!
LOL! only gundam she attempted. we might try the PQ ver of freedom<.<Quote:

Off topic, my collection :DQuote:

Because you care, its got nothing to do with being an auto enthusiast ;-).
Anyone know if fn2r seats are straight bolt on to our cars, including their rails? Or are modifications needed?

The rails are fine, however the feet won't match up to the FD chassis. So you need to grind the rivets off the feet of the FN seats and replace them with the feet off your existing FD seats. Or you can fabricate them up.
Other than that everything will plug in fine etc.

just pm duffy, he'll explain it to ya
When I was back tracking I saw your evo recaros, freakin' nice man!Quote:

i got a pic man. imho, the civic doesnt suit meisters.. and im not saying that out of bias, meisters are my favourite wheels.
http://sphotos-a.ak.fbcdn.net/hphoto...18210559_n.jpg
Meisters are my all time fav wheel. ever.
i love meisters as well just unsure how it would look like on our FD's
looks okay ish >.<
17x9.5 meisters all round on a white FD, slammed, no bodykit.
thank you.
9.5 ... daaaaaaaamn ... pulled/shaved/rolled/fd2r fenders?
all of the above. with black centers/chrome lips on the meisters.
wouldnt take that much to fit a 9.5. more like rolled guards LOL and 215/40 tyres :)
ill swap my RS for a set of meisters in 9.5 and 10 staggered if anyones keen :P
