You should move, dude. Upgrade your life.

Crazy puns in my thread?! Believe it!!

Beautiful Naylor.... If you are going to put black wheels on a white car, make sure they are GLOSS black, and huge. Just like that.

If this was one's main business, then it would be a tough thing to make a living on... but if it's a side business or hobby to import / re-sell / distribute JDM parts, then it can be viable. But I agree, nobody is going to become a millionaire importing rare Legacy parts.

They are quieter than say a Megan Racing or a Magnaflow or something else aftermarket. But the JDM cans have a raspier free flow sound with a touch of boxer rumble then you get on it. At idle they omit a nice bassy burble, much more than the stock cans do. My car sounds like a stage 2 STi with it's stock muffler cans still on. Very close.

I have the Sti quads bought from HKC and they are great. Yes they look best with a JDM bumper. Which I don't have yet. Maybe one day I will get one from HKC? Here's hoping!!

I totally agree with N.Sane. With HKC on hiatus for a lot of 2011, there must be pent up demand again (at least for me!) and the smaller bits are easier for us to afford and generally move better volume. +1 on suspension bits and easy JDM add-ons like wagon tail lights, spats, etc etc.

Good to see you Deer Killer!

I've had my STi cans for several months now. Bought them because Johndas got them and I saw and heard them in person. at idle, they throb with a nice bass note. Like a factory STi. When accelerating they are nice and bassey from 1-3k RPM, then when you open it up in the higher revs, they pretty much settle back into a normal LGT exhaust sound and lose the bass. But you can hear the boxer throb much better. Not obnoxious when driving hard. Puttering around a parking lot is when they are most noticeable, no joke. That's where the boxer engine bass throb is most apparent. But I'm stage 2 with only one mid cat, so they might be quieter if you slap them on a stock 2.5i or LGT. All in all, they are pricey, but look great and very understated. With a factory rear bumper, they tuck under noticeably like in John's post 1 pics. If I'm standing behind the car about 5-10 feet away, you can barely see them. But any driver in his car behind me on the road sure see them. And hear them. I bought them as they are JDM (I'm a collecter) and are quad tip and straight bolt-on. Welding dual tips on a couple Magnaflow cans would be more noticable in appearance and likely a lot louder, but again, they wouldn't be JDM, and they wouldn't sound or look as subtle- which is what I like best. Sometimes I wish the exhaust was louder in order to scare other drivers on the road, but I know that would get old quickly.

My favorite joke to tell when asked to tell a joke: A young woman gets on the bus with her baby in her arms and puts the money in the box when the bus driver looks over and is noticeably startled. "Damn, lady! Sorry, but that's the ugliest baby I've ever seen!" The young woman is understandably quite by this rude statement and proceeds to walk to the back of the bus and sit down. Still quite shaken by his comments she has a very upset flustered look on her face. A nice man is sitting next to her and can't help but notice how upset she is, so he asks her what's wrong... "The bus driver just insulted me as I was getting on the bus!" she exclaimed. "Well, that's outrageous!! He's a public servant and shouldn't be anything less than polite and friendly to his customers!" "You're right, I'm really upset and should go give him a piece of my mind!" "Absolutely! Go up there and give him hell!" He says. "Here, let me hold your monkey while you go talk to him."

Beautiful job on blacking out the grille. Looks OEM. What did you use to create the front chin spoilers? Trade secret?

Great write up with detailed pics. A+ job.

TGIF!!! The Earring: A man is at work one day when he notices that his co-worker is wearing an earring. The guy knows his co-worker to be a normally conservative fellow, and is curious about his sudden change in "fashion sense." He walks up to him and says, "I didn't know you were into earrings." "Don't make such a big deal, it's only an earring," he replies sheepishly. His friend falls silent for a few seconds, but then his curiosity prods him to ask, "So, how long have you been wearing one?" "Ever since my wife found it in my truck."

Done.

Keep it on topic!!

Lost in translation, I'm guessing. I do prefer to keep this thread full of funny shit though. Any joke that a member here might question in his head as 'really funny' before typing it out best just keep it to himself.

The Parrot There was a sign on the cage that said $50.00. "Why so little?"Sue asked the pet store owner. The owner looked at her and said, "Look, I should tell you first that this bird used to live in a house of prostitution,and sometimes it says some pretty vulgar stuff." Sue thought about this,but decided she had to have the bird anyway. She took it home and hung the bird's cage up in her living room and waited for it to say something.The bird looked around the room,then at her, and said, "New house,new Madam." Sue was a bit shocked at the implication,but then thought "that's really not so bad." When her two teenage daughters returned from school,the bird saw them and said, "New house, new Madam, new Girls." The girls and the woman were a bit offended but then began to laugh about the situation considering how and where the parrot had been raised. Moments later, Sue's husband, Bosco, came home from work. The bird looked at him and said... "Hi Bosco."

Those Konigs look pretty decent! I had a set of 15" Heliums waaaay back in the day on my Acura. They were good quality. Bump for all the other wheels on this page too. Some nice looking cars here, boys!

I remembered this joke last night, thought it was appropriate to add: (An oldie but a goodie) An Italian, an Irishman and a Chinese fellow are hired at a construction site.The manager points out a huge pile of sand and says to the Italian, "You're in charge of sweeping". To the Irishman, "You're in charge of shoveling" To the Chinese guy, "And you're in charge of supplies". "Now, I have to leave for a little while. I expect you guys to make a dent in that pile." So the manager goes away for a couple of hours. And when he returns, the pile of sand is untouched. He says to the Italian, "Why didn't you sweep any of it? The Italian guy replies, "I didn't have a broom. You said the Chinese guy was in charge of the supplies, but he disappeared and I couldn't find him" So then the manager turns to the Irishman and asks why he didn't shovel. The Irishman replies, "I couldn't get myself a shovel. You left the Chinese guy in charge of supplies and I couldn't find him." The manager is really pissed now, and storms off toward the pile of Sand looking for the Chinese guy. Just then, the Chinese guy springs out from behind the pile of sand and yells, "SUPPLIES!"

I'm lovin' it too, half way in to a mickey of Smirnoff.

Wow. This thread took a turn for..... somewhere.
