Pedals and Exhaust installed!

OK...so the mods are coming on slowly but surely. I recently installed the following:

RAZO PEDALS - GO JDM and OLD SCHOOL!





Then I slapped on a test pipe and RC muffler



here is the muffler...



then once installed I polished the tips up nice and shiny!!!

Wow. That looks good. Your interior is spotless! The grey looks good, I wish my -SE was that color instead of maroon.

Well I call them JDM because they come from Japan...and Old School in the sense that these are the exact same models that were available in the mid to late 90s. So they are old school to me....

Sure you see these "style" pedal every day on sale at Pep Boys...but where do you think they came from? Who did them first? Who had them first? Who copied who? I am pretty sure the RAZO brand pedals were around longer than the pep boys specials you see TODAY. I remember buying these same pedals when I was fixing up my car when I was 18-21 years old...and I am 34 now.

Thanks man...yes I was very lucky the car was in decent shape when I bought it. Plus it is very rare to see a WHITE 1st gen with GREY interior...usually its maroon. I am pretty happy with the car so far. I am almost about to hit 102K miles woohoo!

Yeah I saw those pedals! Really really nice..but they are over $100....these Razos were like $50! ahahaha....I know there are better ones out there. I chose these because these are the ones I had before...more for nostalgic sake. Nothing more.

your maybe a NEWER model. I think the newer ones had rolled tips. The muffler I have is an older used one. I think thats why.
