It's official. I've gone Riceboy
 
Just installed a 3A Racing tip on my car. :wall:

Now to justify it, I got it for free, it's only a 3" tip, and all I had was a stock muffler with a straight pipe coming out the back. Not very pretty. This at least dresses it up a bit without being too Uncle Ben's.

nice one white.....i myself have also gone rice, i have cf altezzas...........:woot:

thnikkamax Jul 2, 2003 05:43 AM

eh.. i have a AutoZone 3" chrome tip.. it looks small.. about the size of the stock 3.5 SE Alty tips

I don't care if it's rice.. a lot better than the rusty black dirty pipe look

96BLUMAX Jul 2, 2003 05:46 AM

Yeah there are far worse things to do.

Whitemax Jul 2, 2003 05:51 AM

LIke reverse indiglo guages? Have them too. lol :chebosto:

erty67 Jul 2, 2003 06:09 AM

:wavey: ...black chrome altezzas here:nervous:

maximaseefu Jul 2, 2003 06:13 AM

the altezzas in CF actually look a lot better than i would have imagined. i bought them because a mustang hit my max in the parking lot and left. cracked my drivers side outer lens. i convinced myself that altezza was the way to go if i was going to have to replace my taillights.

Whitemax Jul 2, 2003 06:43 AM

It's actually a really nice tip. It's resonated, and has 3 really good clamps to hold the tip in place, and not come loose. I need to cut off some of the stock miffler tip so it doesnt show through the new tip, and that's it. I'll try to snap a couple pics of it this week. It does look MUCH better than the stock tip, which is just a piece of 2.25" pipe.

hey whitemax/ you still on the K-planet? i sold my pos gsx-f and baught an r1 and a r6

99Maxima5sp Jul 2, 2003 07:32 AM

I used to have that same tip, its not rice, its nice and classy. If you had the L.E.D light i would have to b!tch smack you :p I have since upgraded to 3.5inch Pilot chrome racing tips...

rice is good, everyone should have a little but you also should know when it's to much.:laugh:

Clayton Jul 2, 2003 08:58 AM

I thought it was going to be one of those big a$$ coffee can tips at first, but what you got isn't rice at all. Just cheap :thumbsup:

95emeraldgxe Jul 2, 2003 01:03 PM

i dont see any rice there

thnikkamax Jul 2, 2003 02:59 PM

yay! no rice!...

I checked and mine is a 3A Racing tip also... i noticed the resonator.. so if we cut the 2.25" tip off, will it make some noise?

i got mine at an Autozone that was goin out of business for like $20 cuz i also bought some oil and other stuff.

I think regular price is either 29.99 or 34.99 at Autozone. Try a Pep Boys or Kragen as well.

ZeRo MaX Jul 3, 2003 03:02 PM

You got the smaller one.. I think mine is the 3.5" one because unlike yours, mine almost rubs on the bumper (there's actually probably like .5" gap)

AutoZone had that one for $12 also

thnikkamax Jul 5, 2003 05:31 PM

so restating my question... does this tip actually resonate sound if you cut the pipe down??? I guess i should do it and find out :gotme:
