well after this http://soarercentral.com/sc-forum/messages/283/235818.html?1202781429 unfortunate accident i was without a car :-( anyway the insurance payment came swiftly so i picked up this new ride!

As i received it!:

The fist mod was fix the crapy droney zorst it had on it, Also looked crap too. So on went a near new Aristo "Tanabe hyper medallion" exhaust system. only a couple of small mods had to be done to make it fit under the soarer, It was worth the effort! Zero drone on the freeway and a mad note on WOT makes mea a happy chappy :-)

great quality Japanese exhaust!!

The cat back system came from rampant his website is www.rampant.net.au.

To make the exhaust fit was just to shorten the Y-splitter pipe and flip the mufflers over to opposite sides and yeh bit hard to explain in full. but it can be done! thats the main thing!

cheers for all the comments on the car its still growing on me!

new suspension fitted! and my old dba4000 rotors from the other car.

I am very happy with them, they feel very similar to my old spring setup but now with the added adjustably makes this a better package.

cost me $1375 from otomoto, two thumbs up!

James that looks 10x with the wheels, suspension and exhaust fitted.

I wasnt too sure about it when I first saw it a couple of weeks back, but looks sweet now! Good work.
