You definitely won't have your exhaust too long with it like that......

Similar to a modded 240SX, S15, whatever you wanna call them.

I said similar!

But seriously I've been obsessed with those cars for a long time I think when I'm out of college and in a job the first large amount of debt I'm gonna dive into is to get a 240 and get the fancy JDM body kit for like $10,000, then a new engine, and SUPER expensive wheels, and when she is all done. Go cry at the amount of money I spent on a car.

So i finally got my HKS exhuast mounted properly... i know it been a LONG time.. but are some pic







My buddy did used my old exhuast, and fixed the angle...

We had to use this lift ... Because i stayed with my exhuast running under my rear axel idea.. this way in the kept the suspension under load and we could be the exhast high and tight as possible...

The exhuast was later adjusted, we got worried about the Stillen lip kit and rear bumper roasting...









Tmw is the big day ... i will finally be doing my last tune and dyno runs... I will try can get videos made.

nice progress so far. really like what you have done with this car, specially the paintjob. IMO paint the intercooler black, it takes away from the car.

Ummmm......yeah. It's industry standard to use a 4post lift when doing exhaust work for the very reasons you described.

Thanks for sharing the pics. Lookin' forward to your dyno results.

That looks so nice, man. Congrats on getting it fixed up right!

One thing though... how on earth do you change your rear right tire if the exhaust runs right under the axle? When you jack the car up does the suspension not decompress and hit the exhaust?

With coilovers, the suspension doesn't nearly decompress the same as OEM suspension. In fact, it pretty much stays in the same spot. That's how it is on my Maximas.

lol, true dat! i dont know how many times ive three wheeled that thing trying to jack it up. its quite interesting getting it back down from 4 jack stands sometimes!



So, Keem, have you had the car out on the road yet? I wanted to see how the front bumper was holding up if youve gone triple digits yet... what exactly did you use to bond the materials together... because fiberglass wont seem to cut it!
