Hey guys. Just picked up my Tanabe Medalion exhaust from Rick at Riverside today.... Just and FYI for those that are getting this exhaust and picking it up, it will just BARELY fit accross the back seat of your G... if you've got a truck or SUV, I'd bring that instead... unfortuantely my wife had my truck today.

I also picked up a set of Tanabe NF210 lowering springs today. These are their comfort line and only drop the car 1" - 1.3", so it's a moderate drop, but not too much.

I plan to install everything this weekend, but in the mean time I'll take a few pics and post them up for everyone to see.

FYI... When I saw Tanabe at SEMA they pronounced it ta-NA-bay. With the emphasis on the "NA".

EDIT... pics attached (including pics of the springs):

okay here is the update. Sorry it took around and hour and half but My friend was here with is TSX so i was helping him with his fogs, he had to take off the whole bumper.

Uhh a few things first, the sound while idle not much louder than stock. Second For some reason my tips are not in the center of the bumper dents for the tips. I don't know why I might have done something wrong, I'm gonna try to figure that out soon. Sound amazing when you press the gas and looks totally Hot.
Now it's 11 30 And i haven' eaten since this morning at 9 So... PLEASE CAN YOU LET ME EAT SOMETHING AND rest a bit before i start posting?!

Will be posting soon, but While i was there, I noticed that my mufflers don't sit right or line up the same. I'm pretty sure it's user error and not quality. Any one have any ideas? one side seems to sit too far back? Anyways I'll have a video of the engine start and rev it's too late and weather is too crap to do a drive off. if i try one It might be a video of a spin out hahaha.

Thanks for the diehard dedication and progress update, Clement. Can't wait to hear the sounds clips of the exhaust with your Berks. Also curious if the Tanabe helped get rid of that odd 'sucking' sound you were getting when you let off the throttle? I guess it can wait until tomorrow, though. Now go get something to eat before you die of starvation and we all have to part out your car...

As far as the alignment goes, check to make sure that the rubber hangers for both mufflers are pushed all of the way on the hanger pins / brackets. If one of these is hung up on the pin and not pushed all the way on, then that could cause the misalignment.

Yeah, I haven't gotten my Berk's yet either... what's up with Andy on that? I've left him a couple of messages and haven't heard anything back... he's always been very repsonsive too. Guess I will try him again today and see if I can get a hold of him.
