Despite popular love for my boso tip exhaust, I'm going to put my quad tips back on as my tips now attract attention from the police. Dropped the rear a couple inches the other day.
Just because they do some off the wall crap in Japan doesn't mean it will fly here in America! Just looks like a blind person is installing exhaust systems in your neighborhood! No, sorry a blind person would have better taste!
Back to the subject, installed new O2 sensor in my right bank this morning and cleared the error code. Back on the road without the frustration of seeing the "Check Engine Soon" warning! Gary

difference in opinions brother, throughout the time I've spent lurking here I've always valued your opinion and I still do. Just difference in personal tastes. But after this I'm just putting on standard quad tips.
I had some fun over the weekend. I removed whole front-end, intercooler, timing chain, valve covers, and cams to get to rear timing chain cover gasket and valve seals. Went ahead and did compression test, and block test (head gasket test).
So many shops couldn't figure out why I had low oil pressure on startups. After spending $6k plus with a few shops in replacing guides, tensioners, and chain and a little research..I said f* this, I can do this myself (along with the help of FSM for torque & chain specs and YouTube). Overall, this is no easy task. I'm being very careful by labeling everything and keeping parts' bolts in their own bags. Even had to label each shim.
If anyone needs to redo timing chain or tensioners watch this video:

I remember doing this when I replaced my head gaskets. It's a very long procedure but the FSM has all the steps laid out very very well. The whole job can be done smoothly once you follow the steps and be patient. Lots of RTV and even more if you have/had to take the rear timing cover off.

Surprised no one has mentioned as yet, but why the bent registration plate?
Need to hang a red flag off of those exhausts because they extend past the back more than 6".
I think the ultimate Bozo, er ah Bosu would be to do a ram's horn kind of thing and wrap those babies up and over and route them right in through the sunroof. Man, that would be killer!

I can't believe I'm going to say this but that looks worse than I thought it would and as urban said since the tips stick out more than 6" in some states you have to hang a red cloth off the end to be legal. I know you're defending your choice and that's your right but damn son:

Given the drop, it can't be possible to go up a driveway etc without scraping those tips, can it? Yes, please do un-do your handiwork as soon as humanly possible
Not a fan of your exhaust but, your wheels are killer and I do believe his antenna is stock. I had an antenna like that on my black coupe. Thank goodness you're removing your exhaust.
