kingklay has a little shameless behaviour in the past

lowering/aftermarket exhaust

anyone have any problems after lowering their car? as soon as i got mine lowered it makes creaking noises only on a right turn.. weird. Bushings?

Also as soon as i changed my exhaust system, i get a banging noise ONLY WHEN IT RAINS. what the hell!! underneath the passenger seat. Has anyone else ever experienced this?

thank you.

boricua_civic has a reputation beyond repute

Your catback may be banging against the heat plate. The creacking noise maybe due to bad installation.

they are all normal things that happen. bigger pipes rattle more and suspension makes noises.

Boilermaker1 is a splendid one to behold

Rain rattle is seeminly normal. its the heat deflector.
Creaking/rattle turning right may be the exhaust hitting the sway bar.
