What exhaust system do you have and do you like it?

And thanks for mentioning the shifter rebuild kit. I was a the dealer and was going to piece together a rebuild kit and it was like $140 so I held off. Going to have to order that Pettit kit.

Johnny,

The exhaust is a "Brullen" exhaust. I couldn't remember so I texted the PO and he reminded me. They are 304 Stainless Steel and Built to Order. They are a Canadian Company.

^Nice. Really love how the colors of the Christmas lights reflect in the wheels. Great shot! Just wrap the car with wide red ribbon like the current ads for Lexus and Audi. The perfect holiday gift!

We had our charity toy run Saturday. We delivered over 2k toys to the pediatric unit at Deborah heart and lung in Browns mills NJ.

Here I am with my other organizers having breakfast before the run.

The final piece of the puzzle is complete. From Import, titling, registration to the collector car inspection.

Curious if anyone knows why mine is 12/December, and Mike's is 3/March? Looks like the DMV guys didn't like you very much

Congrats are in order regardless, once you're in this exclusive club you're IN

FD oem body lines are just gorgeous. Do you know your wheel sizes Mike? Given the fenders are untouched they fit very well

I could not agree more! I am pumped to see another build thread that does not involve a body kit and huge wing!

I would also like to know the wheel specs.

With the Holidays upon us it's slowed down any progress on the car. I am making lists of my priorities so after the holidays I can jump on them. A friend of mine in the car community does paint work in his garage. He drives a vintage Mini Cooper and an R32 Skyline and is very much a fan of the Japanese imports.
He will be redoing my rear bumper. In case you could not tell it has a crack in the paint, burn mark from the exhaust being too close and a few other abnormalities. We are going to match the paint, spray some text cards and get it matched up. This means I will be fixing the issue with my exhaust.

I am toying with the idea of getting an RE-Amemiya Dolphin. The turn down pipe would help from damaging the bumper again after getting it fixed. I would like to do a resonated midpipe but I think the Dolphin exhaust has a resonated center section. I hate the drone I have right now so that's gotta go. My tuner wants to be sort it my exhaust before doing the final tune. So that will have to come next.

Any other suggestions? I am also toying with the Racing Beat cat back.

Worst case I can bend the bangers on the exhaust I have now to lower it away from the bumper and just replace the midpipe with a resonated one.
