Well it's been proven time and time again that a 3" will make more power then 2.5". The whole back pressure myth this doesn't apply to the KA's, I would like to say it's because it's a big 4cyl but it's been proven to not be affective to the KA's. So 3" will make more power weather he was N/A or Turbo.





*Cough* Blitz Nur-Spec *Cough*


Looks good

Nice dude, Your car is looking seriously SWEET! I'm jealous. Blitz all the way man! I've got a Blitz Realize TT-R 3" cat-back on mine. Very clean sounding, and very quiet, way quieter than yours. And mine has the badge and engraving ...and I bought it for $330, NOT on ebay.

Yeah tha TT's have a more throatier sound, and although the pipe is a 3" inside of the muffler IIRC it becomes an 2.5"....

i said "Jack Stands" not jacks.... they dont fit under any car unless u jack it up first then lower the car onto the jack stand.....
please dont use a jack to hold up the car while you work on it you can get a set of 2 jack stands for like $20 at your local autoparts store.

i just have bad experiance with this and had a friend that died because he didnt buy a $20 jack stand and just used the jack. so please be safe man

well guys a few new pics of my Silvia badges... just got em in the mail about an hour ago and couldn't wait to put em on.... i was going to go KAT but now i think i'll be going with the S14 SR20DET might even get the whole front clip for a RHD conversion (luckily my neighbor has welder, make the job sooo much easier), going for a USDM Silvia i guess... we'll see!!!

here's some pics... i also got a video of my exhaust, doesn't sound as good as it does is person, but thats what you get for using a point and shoot digi cam... if you guys are interested i'll post a link in a while....


PERFECT FOR A SIG PIC...hint hint 240-kid...




this one speaks for its self....

dont go rhd it will give you no added benefit it will actually make it harder for you to drive because making left hand turns will impossible not to mention the only way to make it legal is to claim your car as a reuilt title.

also looks bad *** now im thinking of painting my car black lol.

also on the SR its up to you its a personal choice

the Japanese and Europeans turn left I'm sure, haha..

thanks for the compliment bro, i know i don't have many performance upgrades yet, but at least she'll look the part when i do.... right now she looks fast but is slow as *****....

on the SR tip.... i'm still back and fourth about it... so lets see, i changed my mind like underwear, once a day... I'm all wish washy all the time.... like i never really wanted to do the silvia badging, i always thought it was a little weak sauce putting foreign badges on a local car, but I'm really starting to like the look and rarity... i get alot of people hating on other forums though, they they don't have much else to do...

i have no real plans for a spoiler, even though i was thinking about that "M3" style lip for the trunk, and possibly the rear window spoiler.... i think i'll just as you say, stay sleek and cleeeeeeeeaaaaaan lol

i think the only thing i need to do now is get some kouki tails and i think i'll be pretty much done with the outside...then i'll be moving on to susp parts
