GB: HKS axel back exhaust

I find this website on the net that carry the HKS axel back for our car. They are 235 american plus shipping and brookers fee. I come out to be around 460 cdn shipped to your door for one exhaust.

http://www.optauto.com/webstore/prod...k=yes&dept=205

I will try to contact the company on Monday and see if they could do us a group buy.

If you are interested, please let me know

Thanks

Yah, 25 ppl for a GB?! That is a lot! DAMN! And it's only a rear section! What kind of gains can we expect from the rear section bolt on? Or is it just good for looks and sound? Anyone have a pic of how it looks bolted on the car?

Well you really can't feel the gain with it alone. It is basically just good for look and sound. There is tons of pix about it, go down to other parts and products/member's ride forum and do a search on "hks"

I found a picture of the exhaust. Sooooo sweet..... It's just what I was looking for! I wanted the angle look and I thought Ractive was the only company that made it. Thank God I found the HKS.

not to flame here but watch out for angle installed muffler
because cops always pick on car that has muffler installed at an angle

ask Andoy, BJai, and TTCivic, they know better than me when it comes to getting pulled over with sideway exhaust

i have to admit they look good but not worth $110 fine

not fine for angle exhaust

but i meant if the cops see a car with muffler installed at an angle, they tend to pick on those car and if they are in a mood, they will flash the cherries and pull u over and they usually give you the ticket and let u deal with it

just a head up cuz few members already got booked for

no problem. just dont want more ppl fall for the government's cash grab program

try install it straight or if u really want to install it sideway make sure the muffler doesnt stick out too much for the cops to see it
or add silencer to quiet down a bit

have fun with it

he told me the price he paid for them when it was new and i am like "Whoa....holy **** that's crzy"
but it sounds great and looks great so that's all matter
