Exhaust status: complete

The damn welder was messed up and kept blowing through the 14ga on the lowest heat setting, which made things a little difficult.  You know, nothing I couldn’t handle tho.

Non-iPhone pics  coming soon!

So this is the tallest one I’ve seen… Taller than a silverado. 26’s

Hot fire Lexus

This is my latest creation at work. The customer didn’t think a 10 would be enough for him, but I assured him a 7″ deep (haha) dd 3500 10″ woofer would be plenty. The customer has since brought it back and asked me to turn his amp down.

One last pic before it goes on jack stands once again.  January plans include new exhaust and a revised engine cradle that gives the engine more ground clearance and doesn’t weigh 1000lbs.  Maybe a hood too.  Who knows, we’ll see.  Maybe not.

New exhaust preview

So I’m thinking something along the lines of this: Dual 3″ out of the 1 7/8″ longtube headers to dual 2.5″ to a ss magnaflow muffler to dual 2.5″ again to dual 3″ ss tips. Should be louder than my apexi n1 was haha. Hopefully I don’t wake up too many neighbors!

Sup.

Look what came in today

Small update on my fd

When I bought my car, it had had one stripped lugstud on each rear wheel. I finally dove into replacing them. You would think it would be easy, right? Wrong. Mazda engineered the rear hub assembly to where you must remove and replace the wheel bearings in order to get the new lugstuds in. Also, I ordered something to replace that ugly coffeecan.
