I was given a Tanabe Hyper Medallion Exhaust system today that was originally design (and customized with dual tips) for some model Lexus. Ultimately, a business associate's business had this left over after a customer changed their mind. They wanted it gone from their shop, so I took it off their hands.
My thoughts were to take this down to a local muffler shop, have them cut off the existing tips and replace with a single tip and then custom welded to the stock exhaust piping, essentially replacing the OEM mufflers that are on the car now.
You think there would be any reason not to do this?
Tein SS installed, new shift boot, strut bar, adjusted ride height, cleaned up HFP setup to ship out, ordered a crap load of my old mods that I used to have before and looking for what exhaust I want to go with.
You've got PM. Yup, I sure did bump this thread. Good thing we have a forum like this, where we can all help each other out. Mine is doing the same thing. I just tried taking it apart and cleaning the unit. If that does not fix it, off to Alpine it goes. Just need to get the contact information from you.
Don't get me started...I might not stop. There are members, even on here, that give the world's most shitty advice on what will fit and how to make it fit. I am literally scared out of my mind that I am driving on the same roads as them. Here is just one example of many.
I need to vent. I seriously cannot stand this new trend, fad, whatever the hell you want to call it.
Listen up. Stop !@#$ing installing wheels and tires that are not meant to be on your car. The rim sticking out past the design of the tire is beyond ridiculous and looks simply retarded. If you want a true staggered setup, get a car that can support it. 4 degrees of negative camber so your wheels will tuck. Really? It is just simply unnecessary and unsafe. Not to mention how ridiculous it looks. Sure, many people will say, damn that's slammed, hella flushed, whatever. To this I said, f--- off and stop putting other people in harms way for your stupidity.
I am so sick of people being put in harms way by this utterly ugly and ridiculous practice. This is not directed at anyone in particular, just a rant about this in general. I've said my two cents. I appreciate the forum to allow my voice to be heard.
