#218962 So another small update as winter approaches im trying to get rid of the 4dr hoping to maybe get another hatch but if not id like a truck so i can haul stuff etc....but we will see anyhow this is about my hatch not my 4dr so here we go with a small update pics to come shortly....

I decided to use the motor cycle muffler just to see how it sounds and well its sounding pretty sweet and looks quite nice and i can tell you is about 10lbs lighter then my oem muffler damn that thing is heavy soon to be changeing the whole exhaust dont know if its today tho got some things to do but anyhow pics to be up soon....

HA, I knew I wasn't the only one with this idea. I've got a stainless muffler from a Honda CBR 600, found it in a dumpster in excellent shape, that I want to put on my mine. I like it because it's low profile and it's a Honda OEM part. :D Should sound interesting.

You should post a small video of it on here, I wouldn't mind knowing what it sounds like.

mainly did a quick job on it there are some faults in the hanger. but besides that i feel that it will be a nice upgrade in the end....but there are other thing of wish i have yet to test on it and that will involve time to do the testing....but yea other then the small leak around the flange as the cx piping dosent like the size of my ex flange.....

#219784 nothing yet been working my ass off and stuff and gotta concentrate on getting the red hatch outa here as well as figureing out m white 4dr may just keep it and turn it into a winter car but idk as even tho i can make it 5spd i really dont feel like i want to lol....

but once i get some time together and a spare car its going to be an all out test fit and then pretty much tear down and redo

debateing on bolt in roll cage vs a welded in one not really sure if i want to make the roll cage perminant or not....

#235386 well lets update this thing as may have been able to find a trade for a nice crx si (something that i technically was going to make the hatch into by removing the rear seats and stuff so why not get the real thing since i love these things)

Anyhow its been freezing but slowly ive been able to install the interior which actually makes it warmer lol who wouldve thought so here are some pics

Winter tires and rims
