Yeah sk8ter is totally right. Exhaust, silencers, cats, resonators restrict lotssss of air. Usually lots of race cars use N1 style exhaust with straight piping.

Also i didnt mean if its closer to the ground it flows better, i meant by the way it bends it produces better airflow. Yeah i know the exhaust looks kinda unreal. That is why im finding other ways to do it. Thanx for the replys.

Re: Signal Auto Drifter Twin X

no exhaust, i think, means that the pipe will be straight, no fancy tip or anything

Well theres to kinds of straight piping.

1. Exhaust pipe with not cat. or no resonator, but with exhaust
2. Just straight pipe nothing on it.

Re: Re: Re: Signal Auto Drifter Twin X

straight 3'' piping from the turbo to a straight through muffler works best on turbo cars, don't want the cool air running up the pipe after a few feet off the turbo, housing could crack. That's why most honda 4's dont run straight open headers, they have usually about 4-6 feet of piping from the header with a turndown under the car (can be seen at the drag track) there heads would crack if they ran open header, cool air up the pipe, and crrraaack!

I got the front right suspension done. It took along time. I modified R34 Drilled brakes to fit the 180 suspension. It took lots of shaving of plastic. But all of that work took a while. I used the Advan RG's for reference where the rims would sit. I AM VERY AFRAID THAT THE NEW AOSHIMA VOLK CE28'S WILL NOT FIT!!! i have already ordered them. Can anyone tell me right now for sure if they will fit or not who ever has that wheel and this 180 kit. If they dont fit when i get them, i will be using Advan RG's the ones below or some Blitz Z1's. Sorry for the blurry pics.

Yes they will be painted. I am painting them to match Endless Brakes they use.

Blue Calipers and silver rotors.

Re: Signal Auto Drifter Twin X

The new S-parts are going to tuck. If those Advans sit on the tire and almost tuck it certain the 19"s will.

You're also going to have to modify more as the S-part wheels are female. As far as width. That's going to depend on how you modify your suspension to accomodate to the new wheels.

Thanx for the info. I am just afraid the wheel will look to big for the car. I am also afraid of the height of the car even if i dump the car it will still be high.
