| So, There's been debate on whether they are good or not, My car has them. Personally I love them, but you be the judge. Do you like the sound? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aMQ4IDDSZ8Q |

| they sound fine, they just dont suit a soarer imo. oval mufflers look much better |

| Canons both look and sound cheap and nasty, do nothing other than make noise, and are very anti-social. Might as well fit a Dukes of Hazard airhorn and drive around everywhere tooting Dixey while you are at it. |

| i dont agree, i have cannons on my V8 because they were cheaper than decent tips and are stainless anyway, forgetting the stupid name they arent a muffler rather a hotdog style resonator my soarer is barley louder than stock, ZERO drone at any speed and under wot there is more induction noise than exhaust, sounds really nice and deep but still very quiet, definatley still legal on the DB scale loud exhausts on n/a cars is wrong.... and if you have to it'd better be something decent sounding... VN's VL's etc... should be stolen and burnt |

| fills the holes in the bumper, i prefer no visable pipes but the soarer isnt like other cars i've had.... and nice and tucked away, not like those friggen things you see dragging on the road behind skylines and 200sx's and wrx's ffs they are crap if anyone really hates them get me some decent mufflers as a straight swap and you can have my bazookas  |

| thats your opinion and your entitled to it... i wont bother making mention of how horrible loud exhausts sound on n/a 4's and 6's or how terrible ebay lights look maybe i'll sell my rims to someone who will put them on a s2k or something like that  |

| Just because you can buy them from ebay doesn't make them "ebay lights" They are actually called Altezza tail lights. You don't call your engine oil "Supercheap Auto oil" you call it "Mobil, or Castrol oil" You can buy complete Soarers off ebay as well, Doesn't make the, "Ebay Cars" |

| No they Are quality eBay lights. If they were a quality replacment part you would be able to buy them at a Toyota dealer. |

Does that mean your rims came from a Toyota Dealer? After all, they're clearly a "Quality replacement part" |

| My 1st day dealing and no one was interested in my gear till I got the rims and some gold chains. When I brought the car there weren't any black ones on eBay so this was the closest. I also have another soarer it's 4wd and runs on nitro, that I did get off eBay and it goes 800km/h! Full drift spec bro |

| Don't you have anything constructive to offer Matt? All you seem to do is get on here and write people off and you don't even own a soarer. Maybe you should be spending less time on here and more time cutting the rust out of that poor rotor. Anyway nice sounding exhaust Kristium but you have to remember that cannons will sound different on a tt. I like the look of ovals myself but each to their own. |

Just because i don't own a soarer doesn't mean i'm not a fan of em' However, i AM not a fan of the fulleh sik 20" chromies As for the rust, theres only two small 20c peices near the rear hatch drain hole.... Try again ^_^ |
