Those are great coilovers if you dont track your car.
I've riding a sedan that had them and the car still felt stock.
Your going to really enjoy them.

I want those for daily driver and improved handling, i've read so many good reviews about it and how comfortble the ride is, so i'll be getting it and more handling mods.

Anyways i'm also buying HKS Camp2 from my friend, but i'm looking for more information on how to make it run without having to cut some wires, i wonder how to make it display data while the car is moving, i need step by step in a pm because i think stuff like these is not allowed on the forums.

I'll be done with my JWT intakes when i install the Injen CAI (sometime next week or the after), i was thinking since i doesn't know anyone here who would want to buy them, i can send them to you for free by aramex, but i'll tell them the reciever well pay when recieving them, that way you'll pay only for shipping.

Btw i'll be getting Tanabe's coilovers, i placed my order at Amp and they should've charged my credit card for the deposit, i can't wait to get them mid/late August.
Hey thanks for the offer dude, but TBH I wasn't looking at getting intakes anytime soon, just a simple k&N drop in filter for now. I dunno I feel with this weather we're having in this region that any aftermarket filters would loss us a bit of power, the only one that seems convenient is the Injen CAI , let me know how it compares to the JWt intakes.

On a side note, the tracking number for the exhaust seems to say that it's arrived in the country, so I hope to see it tomorrow or the day after that's if it isn't stuck in customs.

Keep us updated, you really should get an intake, SRI intakes are good and easy to clean.

I will update you guys, but with the intakes do you not feel any heat drain coming from the engine when you're at a light or something? i.e. does the car not bog down as soon as you take off due to the engine heat?

1 or 3 minutes stop won't hurt, beside when you drive you'll get a lot of outside air directed into your SRI intake via the oem air ducts, beside i got HKS Camp2 to install and monitor the intake temp. and some othere stuff in the car, but i don't know when well i be doing that, i might also borrow Greddy Informeter from a friend and before i install the HKS Camp2 too, i need to be free to install it.

i have the SRI and there's no heat soak with our summer. slightly improved power in the higher RPMs, which could be improved with a proper tune. Plus, intakes are even better in cooler weather. The power will be much more noticeable in winter

ohh sounds interesting, well if I was to get any intakes I'd be going with the Injen CAI, so I I actually get hold of the exhaust

Ugh I'm already so stressed from moving houses, the exhaust supposedly arrived last Thursday in Jeddah, but i haven't received anything yet. I'm actually on hold with the shipping company as I'm typing this because I'm travelling on Sunday back to the UK. AHHHH!!! honestly today I think I'm going to loose my anger on someone at work, it already happened last week and I made two employees cry lol. I can't handle the stress of this $hit anymore. I need to leave for a week or two to de-stress.

I'll update you guys if I receive anything from now until them

One other word of advice, if anyone offers to use this company ----> http://www.dbschenkerusa.com/ as a shipping agent, try and stay well away from them. I just got off the phone with them, firstly they hung up on me like 5 times until I called screaming at them. Secondly I find out that the shipment has been sitting in Jeddah airport since Thursday and no one has contacted our company to tell them it has arrived, and now WE have to clear the goods and get it delivered over to my address. TBH this is total bull$hit. Basically http://www.dbschenkerusa.com/ in Saudi arabia don't do $hit. They just sit there in their offices getting paid for nothing!!!

This exhaust has given me more frustration than I would have faced if I just sold it locally and ordered from someone else like Amplified. On top of all of this I don't even know if they've sent the right exhaust or if anything is damaged or if anything is missing. We're trying to clear the goods now, but if there isn't an invoice attached to the package then I'm going to get into a whole load of other $hit.!!!


BRING ON THE RAGE!!!!!

Un$ucking believable,

We just found out that the package was sent out on the 23rd from NY to TEXAS!!! It's still sitting in Texas for some reason, and TBH we've got no idea when it'll arrive. Now how the hell does the picture below show that it's arrived in Jeddah KSA when it's still in Texas?!?!?!?

I have to wait 5 hours until DB's international department i open to find out what the hell is going on. This company is really unbelievable.!!!!!!

I told you before, but you didn't listen, i went thru the same thing as you did, but i sold the goods, made profit and ordered the correct stuff again.

Anyways man i really really feel sorry for you, i hope you can solve this problem, thats why i told you to deal with Aramex, you can always drop by at their office and fix things up.

I understand what you're saying dude, BUT it was not my choice, I had already asked CVR to use DHL or FedEx but they said that they only deal with this $hitty company, and I cannot force them since they are taking on the cost of shipping.

Anyway I'm still waiting for an update from both Chris at CVR and DB in the USA.

Just helping out though.
Which was before sending it back, but what happened is done now, i really wish to see you get that exhaust and post some pictures and sound clips, i really want to hear the way it sound's with HFC before i get them, and i think your the only one with Invidia and HFC atm.
