Should i go straight pipes? I know the video is a 3rd gen but if im not mistaken they have the same motor as the 2nd gen? so im guessing itll sound the same

He kept his cats and res but straight pipes after the res. Yay or nay, if yay where should i go get it? *i know one of you guys are gonna say dirty johns.. my answer to that is no for now lmao.

Idk i somewhat want to keep stock exhaust on the side so in case something happens i can hook it back up and get rid of the straight pipes. I was hoping J-Trans could do it since i live right there but they said they cant

Looks like grilling at the park is banned for a while.

We'll just grill at my house lol

 

^ that's what I'm talking bout

 

Headlights are done and installed

 

post a pic bro !

 

Here's a cell phone pic. Overall turnout was good. I wish I had painted that area behind the diffuser black so it would have that smoked look. For anyone planning to get USR diffusers, they are not an exact fit and will have to be sanded down but it is worth it. The reflector areas wrapped with 3m di noc wrap.

 

looking good

 

someone answer my exhaust question? lol

*insert houston import forever alone meme*

 

You might get more responses in the 2g section. Idk if the 2g and 3g have the same setup.

 

thought i'd ask the 2g members.. since i do have a 2nd gen tl lol.

 

Sorry I meant 2g. Most of us here in the Houston thread have 3gs.

 

yea i realize that lol. guess im the black sheep here.. but then again.. you'll recognize me cause ill be one of the few that have a modded 2g :p

 

Austin crew has some mighty clean looking 2g's

 

i havent seen yet. friend suggested i go to one stop and get my mid muffler deleted. lookin at vids on youtube and they sound pretty nice. not too loud either


btw anyone else planning to go to wekfest?

 

ILL !!! In da future ima need some help lol

 

fix't!

One of my homeboys with a 6th gen Accord V6 did a straight pipe with stock headers.exhaust piping & cats & tbh it did sound good (no rasp) when he revved it. I never heard it at full WOT but cruising speed it was good from the outside.

EDIT: BTW,youre not the only modded 2g TL here,Marc is one.


Dennis,glad to see your headlights came out good.

 

Anytime man

 

so he did straight pipes after his cat and res? i was just gonna do a mid muffler delete, i dont want it too lound now, my neighbors car is loud enough lmao, not trying to start a competition.

any pics of Marc's car? Yea i was saying ill be one of the few that have a modded 2nd gen

 

Dennis, those lights look nice

 

Yeah after the cats,no resonators so it was basically one single straight pipe all the way to the back like 240 drivers. I wish he still had the car so i could get him to make a vid but he doesnt

Actually that makes it 3 of y'all cuz i just remembered Mario also got a 2g TL-P (NBP).
Here's Marcs car from our galveston cruise we had this summer..





And here's Mario's car,hes slammed now tho (hes in gtown like TLdude)

 

alright ill prob do the same, straight pipes after cat to my stock axle backs.

thats weird lol.. both cars have the rim options i want, and marc has his fatlace frame up front while i have mines in the back, have my canibeat one up front.

i prob wont get coil overs just H&R springs but idk which rim choice to go with. they both look great to me.

 

so guys i have a dilemma. Should i stick with my 03 tl-s or go into a 98 gs400. the gs has navigation and front and rear radar diffusers with only 82,000 miles but the downside is it's gold. my car just hit 122k miles but i've spent about 1500 in my system alone. either way the car will only be kept for about 4-6 months because after that i'll be hopping into a mkIV supra. Suggestions?

 

id take the system out of the tl and get the lexus...

why not? you've already had two tls..

 

If your TL runs fine and you're going to need either car for only 6 months max, I say keep the TL unless you can make some type of profit from the swap.

 

taking the system out of the TL would be tough since i'm running a 5 channel amp, meaning i'd have to run new wires again or put in a cheaper 4 channel amp with no sub.
also i've had a gs400 previously too and man that car is fun.

 

it runs great and all but i'm just looking for something fun for a few months. profit wise doesn't really matter because as some people may know we own a dealership. The GS is just one car that came by that i love

 

Headlights look ill Dennis

 

George Bush Park is burning

 

I know man. i saw that on my way home and thought it was around my house. called and made sure everyone was ok.

i hope they put it out soon.

Paul every one at ur house ok?

 

^Damn. Sorry to hear. Hope everyone is out of harms way and they get it under control. My neighborhood was evacuated last week Monday night. 200 acres burned due to the wildfire. Luckily no one or homes were harmed.

 

I saw it too coming out of work. I was just there this past weekend with the fam. That sucks...
