My Hks hi power scrapes on everything. When I switch lanes, and there is a slight hump, it will scrape. It might be like 3/4" off the ground. It fucking sucks, gonna sell and go straight pipe with dual tips

Take it to a muffler shop and have them cut the square flanges off and weld them together into a 1 piece. My Blitz Nur Spec pre muffler turned into a D, then decided to blow itself apart. I took it to a shop, had them cut it out and weld a straight pipe to replace it and cut/weld the flange together. Shit cleared anything and everything after that. I used to hit the road reflectors with the flange on the freeway.

Truse-r, if you're running Navan, on my phone, you're doing it right. Get a kouki wing and it will be money.

Exhaust hanging low problem can be solved a little by putting hose clamps around the rubber hanger bushings. I know it may be "ghetto" or whatever, but it pulls the exhaust up a significant amount and helps out a lot. My SpecII scrapes sometimes, but not as bad as it used to, since I did that. On 17's so my car sits lower than it would on 18's or something.

This is my current height:


Pic is kinda big, might auto-resize or whatever...

ah quit your bitchin, just keep scraping till it dont scrape no mo, cuz it will be all dented in an shiet.

Jk, I have been thinking about modifying the reinhard once I get it back on the road, never really had issues before though, but the place I moved to since I was driving it, has speedbumpers everywhere and the reinhard on my s13 hits if you dont drive over certain spots.

^ Yup, I'll miss them but the VSXX just look so damn good.

Trying to find a pair of polished 19's so I can run 18/19 stagger again though.

I was running a stock exhaust on this car for the sake of it being small and high from the ground...



After about 4 months of careful driving it got completely shredded to bits and looked like this...



So I went to a reputable exhaust shop (Once I found one that would actually be able to get my car on their lift) and told them that I needed it tucked high and the result was great. My exhaust hardly ever scrapes now and it looks a ton better. Plus it was cheaper than buying a nice premade exhaust like an HKS that will hang lower.



If you wanna be lowlow I think this is the best way to go.

Ill leave this for good measure since its my most recent pic of my Zenki outside my house the other day.

Work took over my life for the 1st 6 months of this year which set me back getting it in use. Now I'm just waiting for the other 2 wheels to turn up (yes thats right customs held onto 2), alligned, MOT (our road worthy test) and use.

Nah. I stick to my opinion. Also, it's a greater than sign :P (if you thought I was pointing to an Arrow)

VS-XX are awesome, but they are second to Equips and LXZ in my book.

LXZ's look best on the Magician s14. All other cars rocking them lately are just on that hype.

VS-XX and Equips are timeless.
