man, bro, you sure have a lot a-holes taking your stuff. i think the valve caps would have bad enough for me (aluminum caps for $4 at pepboys is a lot! not cool) but antennas. someone gotta make a diy anti-theft, swivel car antenna. it's nice to see you come out straight and positive. a lot of people would go nuts, for good reasons too.

and i wanted to say, i really love the hks slant-style of your muffler. can't wait to see how the turbo goes the car.

ty :D when the antenna was first taken, it wasnt that big of a deal, cuz it was a cheap ebay one. the second one was an alta performance, kind bothered, didnt go balistic. now i have an s2000 antenna. the valve caps, kinda annoyed, with all of them, but not wacko. just gonna order another ebay one, just in red. and about the turbo, i think hes gonna go turbonetics, dezod, or most likely turbo toyotas. and all the piping is gonna be upgraded to 3 inch piping. but for now, i think hes gonna buy dc sports headers and an injen intake from one of his friends.

i don't think it was meant to be straight. thats hks' signature slant, and i guess some find taste to it and others don't. i personally like it with a medium sized muffler canister.

uhhhh dont say rice on the exhaust. thats a 170mm HKS CARBON TI. it sounds like a beast if u hear it in person. a carbon ti is probably the least ricey exhaust lol.

and if u ask about why its curved, please realize that this is a custom exhaust. its not just a bolt on like the high power. and, its to long for it to even come close to sitting straight. thats as much as itll go.

thanks for ur comments!!!!

Not feeling any of it, but it's your car so it's your choice to mod it how you like. Any plans for wheels?

it's actually not artificial. he's gotz one of the most expensive muffler on the market. hks muffler can go for $200+!! that's more than a whole generic exhaust catback you can find on ebay. quality, high class material. gotta see that hks video of how they make them. one little, smig of bump on the weld the computer picks up in welding, they take the whole exhaust system, scrap it to melted metal, and remake it from scratch. i call that Crazy commitment.

If you love your car, please remove your ridiculous frame and put it on another car where it applies.

Sorry to burst your bubble but it really makes you look stupid.

I'm not trying to start a flame, just pointing out a fact.

in nicer words translation, cwayne meant to say:

"i believe your license frame does not apply on your car and would be much better on one originally sold in japan as well as america. don't mean to be disrespectful, bro, but it does not look nice in my opinion. so no hard feelings, between us. just giving my .02 cents."

bro, be nice man. we just had an ugliest tC thread and a lot of poop went on there. there are many forms of tuning trims and level.
