Very nice, what kind of muffler is that? Can't wait to see pics of everything installed.

It's an OBX R muffler. I'm not a fan of the big canister, but the tip is the same size as the Greddy so I like that. Hopefully, the rear valence will cover up the canister.

Re: Re: New goodies for my car

how do you like the weld quality of the B-pipe/catback?? is that a slip-fit on the curve after the resonator?

Honestly, I wasn't too impressed with the welds on it. It's nowhere near as clean as my y pipe was. But as long as it gets the job done, I'm happy.

It's not too hard at all. It's just that when your interior gets to looking like this, it's best to label every bolt and screw and where it goes.

Mine looks like that almost now also. But if you have to replace your heater core, you have to remove the vents and that tubular cross member bar also. Now THAT was a pain!

i'm in the process of putting on my WSP exhaust and I found the piece with resonator on it (i didn't get a resonator) was not flared to accept the short piece with the 90* bend. Was your's all right when you got it?

Depends on how the previous owner treated the seats. I need to get the rear covered as it's split from the sun. The leather was just a bonus with the car. From the part's car, I was mainly just interested in the front end, exhaust, transmission and headlights, and then planning on parting the rest out. Having a chance to get rid of the ghey maroon cloth is just an added bonus.
