The only problem is since such parts are so sought after, you have to keep your eye on the for sale threads very, very constantly. Blink and you'll miss these bargain second hand parts lol

I have decided to go fujitsubo the only decision i need to make now is either to get the RM01A or the Powergetter ... is there any particular reason to choose one over the other ? i want something with decent gains in performance and also sounds the part but not too loud to attract too much cop attention as i am still on p plates =D
the powegetter fits your description. ive heard the rm01a, and even with headers, its still pretty quiet.
i paid $800, 5 year gurantee on the part and workmanship (stainless Steel) I can recommend this block, his on the northern side of town..
I haven't seen dyno's of it but compared to OEM, it does give gains.. Car does feel alot better aswell cause as i said, it's not as restricting PLUS it's not as loud as you may think..
I'd grab a video for you but my car is currently getting fixed lol
Please also remember... its not really your catback that gives your gains... it's the choice of header..
Your header gives more noticeable gains then what your exhaust does to let you know.
Yeah sure no worries mate :)
Well, FGK/RM01A/HKS Silent Hi-Power would be a good choice judging from your preference. I don't know much about XForce, but judging from the first hand experience/feedback from WATAJK; it seems to be another alternative you can look into. Join Clubitr and have a look at some of the parts there; as there are more DC5 parts on sale there; and once you get to know some of the guys from there, you can even get first dibs on parts if it does go on sale lol. IMO go with headers first, then a catback to suit. or a rear sway bar if your car is stock. feel more of a diff.
thankss for the pointers mate, sorry noob question if i wanted to buy something like the exhaust and want it brand new where bouts can i get it i know of websites such as nengun and stuff who ship it from over seas but are their any other websites such as jdm yard or places i can go ? i figured that a good exhaust would set me back about $1500 + then CAI would be about $500 how much do headers cost i was thinking TODA headers or maybe spoon 4-2-1 but im still noob with headers any suggestions there ?
cheers
PM'ing Adrian at Toda, the headers and cat will set you back $1775 and $650 respectively (DC5R). Lots of $$$$, but you get what you pay for =)
cheers for that mate so if i wanted to get the mods i wanted to do it will be
$1775 TODA headers
$650 Cat
$1500 Powergetter or RM01A not sure yet
$500 Injen CAI
Kpro = $???
Tein SS coilovers $1800
so it should be about $5700 all up without K pro ( gonna purchase one at a time xP not that loaded )
5.7 for just that setup?
think your going too much on the big brands. but its really up to you.
take your time and dont rush with your car. have u considered a turbo on a k-series ?
i know your on p's but later down the track.
but if ur serious abt that list go the COILOVERS FIRST
goodluck
