Suspension? We already have springs and coils...I'd love a legit exhaust system since there is only the comptech option.

LOL yea, I didn't actually read the post when i saw tanabe I just assumed thatbit would he exhaust.

I got an email from them already. They asked for my location and if I can leave my car there. I asked them if they are looking to develop an exhaust system for our cars since many people are interested.

On the civic si, the tanabe exhaust sounds pretty good so on a 24, I'm sure it'll sound even better.

Tanabe needs the car on Tuesday 12/13 at 9:00am which is a time I cannot possibly make work. I will have to tell them know to find somebody else.

Is there anybody in the SoCal region that can make it?

ed do it. dont question it. take your mods off to qualify it. its likely free suspension and you save money on installation labor. if its springs you save about $300-400. if its coilovers, then you save over $1000

since youre leaving it for 2 days, id worry about them leaving some drugs in your trunk at an abandon street

As a Tanabe exhaust and SSR/Tanabe wheels owner (both for my S2000), I approve of this thread. Too bad they'll never do an exhaust for the TSX wagon, but I hope they eventually give the sedan some love.

i sure that the wagon has a pretty similar exhaust to the sedan... its the same engine, and the underbody is probably almost identical
