That looks kinda low for the street. Ohlins used to have a set with seperate oil reservoirs but I don't see them listed any more.

Depends on if Ohlins Japan or Ohlins USA made them. Ohlins Japan makes completely different stuff than USA.

Ohlins Japan still makes the separate reservoirs, they can be bought with the suspension or bought independently - quite expensive. Definitely too low, I love how it looks slammed but the front is just too low to the ground, probably raise it up a little bit and shave some of the inner fender that the tire is hitting. Here are some shitty photos, have zero clearance between the tire and fender.

So I get to see some pretty badass parts, but every once in awhile I find something that just leaves me speechless. I was pretty damn happy with my ARC titanium exhaust before this but found this work of art only a few weeks into owning the ARC. Its a FEED ti-94 exhaust, VERY limited amount every made. Its full 94mm titanium piping from the downpipe back, the entire exhaust including mp/cb weighs in at 7.8lbs, catback weighs in at 5.9 lbs. I kind of just want to hang it up in my living room. As you can imagine, its pretty loud but it sounds like the angry fist of god coming down, so deep & throaty nothing I like I have ever heard on any car. 94mm is the largest titanium piping ever made for the FD. This is my 13th exhaust and it doesn't get any better than this, so hopefully this is it. Re-amemiya titanium exhaust hanging out with it.



3.75" = 94mm

beautiful welds/craftsmanship

flange? what flange.

thank god for extension springs





Will try to get a sound clip of it up soon.

that Feed exhaust is really nice, still can't believe what a great deal you got on it. If you decide to sell it I would be interested.

Thanks! The job definitely has certain perks.

Thanks, no intentions to sell it but then again I said that about my past 5 exhausts so who knows. I think 13 exhausts is enough.

Thank Tom! I will try to get one with a little rev action up today, depends how busy I am. Can't do any WOT pulls until my wastegate is ported & my pfc comes in and gets tuned.

BTW Bryan,

What is the likelihood of you coming across another FEED ti-94?

I'll be after that or something very similar...but not for a good few months yet though.

Look at this from page 14 haha. Looks like this was supposed to be exhaust #9

Want something that flows better with the car. I am thinking either Work vsxx, volk te37, work varianza t1s or something else in satin black with satin black lip. I need to get a prescription for my ADD.
