MetallicSlate Build. Y-Pipe Installed!

[Mr.HacKeR]

lol, I would have got a heart attack because of the disappointment..
Oh well, we're waiting!

[MetallicSlate]

Coils installed. Took about 3 1/2 hours because of my INSANE paranoia of snapping bolt heads. Finally my friend said "screw this", took his breaker bar, and the rest is history. Not even close to full low yet. BC's are comfy with just the right amount of bounce. Enjoy!

Teaser of the lowwwwwwwwwwwwwww.

[Irvxing]

Hmm. BC d28;s you say.
Looking good!

[MetallicSlate]

I'll get more pics and a video up after work hopefully.

[MetallicSlate]

MOAR LOWWWWW for those of you that go to page 2 to keep reading. Its also been updated on front page.













And a video of the car.

I put on the non-waterproof back and the audio is much clearer and less wind noise. Enjoy.

Video of y-pipe is up on front page and here as well. She's almost done. Just needs wheels and I'll be done modding for a while.

meh. I ditched my BC Coils for some Teins, and I don't regret that decision at all. Much better ride quality.

Just an update. Installed a new head unit and 2 10 inch sub woofers. Nothing crazy. Actually thinking the car is done other than maybe getting some new wheels. But I'm also looking into a new car too. The V6 is killing my wallet even though its one of the more efficient ones out there. Looking at some smaller displacement engines with turbos. We shall see. I love my coupe like a kid, so it'll be hard to let go if I decide to try and save on some gas.

Unless you get a significantly cheaper car, you're not likely to save that much money even if you double your fuel economy.

Onto more fun things - what vehicles are you considering?

[MetallicSlate]

Thinking Hyundai genesis, brz or Audi 2.0T. Not sure yet.

Edit: I uploaded all of this from my phone, so it didn't upload the head unit picture like I told it to. It's a Kenwood without GPS because it has an app it can use through my phone.

Just putting this out there because Im an audio junkie...

[MetallicSlate]
