Alright.

just curious ... how much did you spend on your cat back ? i assume its only press bent not mandrel bent ?

Spent $400 but under 90 DB, i could got somethin a fair abit cheaper woulda had a much higer DB rating which could be epa'd
As my other car has been epa'd for a cannon.. im sik of having to change it over so i specifically told em to have it under 90DB
Still sounds mean :)

yeah but im referring to what type of bends did they used for the zorst piping.

hey WATAJK, just incase you were wondering.

- mandrel bending is where no matter what angle your pipes are bent @ it always has the same circumference (so a solid 'O' shape the whole way through.
- press bent is where pipes now become oval shape changing the restriction of airflow.

cheers bud.

my order. im sure some of you disagree
coilovers / headers / exhaust / intake / clutch / fly / rims / body.

if you want to go fast you should make sure the car can stop/brake just as good.
tyres and brake pads/brake fluid should be on the list.

lol yup, no matter how fast you go, the next corner will be coming up

i'd say suspension mods first so here are my options.
Reason being suspension mods will keep you more confident in your cars handling power, when your giving it a bit.

1. Rear swaybar
2. Suspension
3. Rotors and Pads
4. Intake
5. Headers
6. Hiflowcat
7. Clutch and Flywheel
8. Tune up with a K100 or something.

Red P's in Vic?
If so, I would steer clear of doing too many mods just yet.
How long have you had the car? I'd suggest giving a good set of tyres a try first. When you've come up with the best tyre for your stock rims throw some coilovers in or a good spring shock combo.
Then look at new rims in a reasonable size and offset.
I don't think you should look at Headers until you're off P's or relatively sure you won't get caught with them.

How much Sexspec? I would say please don't put rims that are too big for the Type R on, or lower it too much. But it's your car, so good luck :thumbsup:

i agree with "Red EG4"

Definitely get good tyres first before trying out some coilovers or spring/shock combo. Maybe look at upgrading your brake pads as well.
