I met up with flamingnos from the other forum today and got to see his rx-3. I actually bought some fenders and a front clip from him since mine are a little beat up. We terrorized the people up at Stevens pass with our exhausts, I hope they were impressed lol. Here are some pics

You know I can't remember exactly what kind of exhaust he has. I think he's got a header going to a racing beat muffler, then to an apexi n1 muffler. BUT I can't really remember, so hopefully he will show up later on and post or something. His car was pretty loud though.

Yep, that's my POS. I'm in the beginning of restoring her. The exhaust is the long tube 2" headers collecting into a 3" borla muffler into a 3" apex'i n1. I had spent a LOT of time molding in a front spoiler that looked badass, but it broke inward at 125 so now my car looks like it has fangs. It'll be a nice car in a couple years. Until then... well, i'll sum it up with "girls hate my car."

Oh, a 12a with a pretty good size extend port, exhaust sleeves removed, and full exhaust. It's not that much, but I'm knocking on 13's already. I spent all summer building an 88 13bt for it. The motor is all done and modded to run 14 lbs on the stock turbo and ecu with a brand new tranny, but I had to abandon the project due to school coming up. I still had to spend around $1500 to finish the cooling sys and drivetrain which would leave me no cash to go to school. Even then, there were going to be little foibles and costs that I was sure would come up. So that setup is for sale.



Until I've got the money to go haltech, big single, and ford 9", I'm just building a nitrous'd 12a bridge motor. That should be in the car within a month.
