Thanks man :) I really love it
Nice sound. I have a magnaflow, its comparable to yours. Some chick complained about my car (its so loud and annoying, why is it vibrating so much, why is it so bumpy and rough)... I directed her to the nearest bus stop.:D
We should compare ours next time in person. I'm curious how much difference the race pipe makes.
lol!Quote:

logical.
I think what you want to do is replace one (or both) of the resonators with Vibrant Ultra Quiet ones.
It's just weird. From outside the car it's not loud at all, but from inside it sounds like you're gonna be blowing people's doors off. I'm probably just not used to my cat making any noise. Probably should just man up.
if you get a high flow cat, i find there to be more drone and much louder in the interior, but deeper sounding.Quote:

Boost the car. That brings down the exhaust sound a fair bit. Convince the GF you did it for her LOL.
I was that guy for a bit. HKS was loud and popped all the time.Quote:

Still pops just not as much and sets off fewer car alarms

I wan't mine to set em off too :chuckle I got mild pops, want it to be louder ;)Quote:

The last is probably the coolest and most valuable for resale IMO.
The ones that stay attached.
Too soon?
Make sure they send the wrench too (from another loose-cap owner)Quote:

I'm actually super excited, since he originally told me there was no way to get them without piecing them together from various caps (expensive), but he found 6 in a random box haha, which are supposedly the last compete caps that exist in North America. Definitely getting a couple...
Good work.
Buy all 6 and resell for profit? Last ones in america, price has got to go up.
2 poor :(
It's an investment bro!
you do it then, Mr BMW moneybags
Man, my car costs less than your wheels.....
buy all and sell them in 50 years..
Either red with gold lettering or polished stainless with brushed lettering, is my vote. CF would be nice but imo, it's a little "boring" compared to the other choices. I absolutely love red with gold letter, but that's just me! lol
I was intrigued by your car when I saw your avatar, then finally came across your thread. Wonderful car! Absolutely love it and probably one of my favourite 3s. The ride height, stance, and wheel choice really do it for me. *thumbs up*
Thanks for the compliments man! I believe I told you already, but I LOVE Volvo wagons!! Especially turbo Volvo wagons ;)Quote:

I originally wanted to do my wheels in a Candy Teal with the Red/Gold logo caps, but I don't think the red would go well with my current colour. Also, I may be changing the wheels again this winter and red caps would definitely not go with the new scheme
Confirmed:
-new bumper coming, new front lip ideas being considered.
-turquoise wheels will be a memory come spring time.
nice, looking forward to seeing it!
Hints for new bumper and rims?
what happened to your bumper and lip?
thanks, me too :)Quote:

The to-do list is as follows:
Change spark plugs (still on original plugs at 135k :S)
MT-90 transmission fluid
JBR PMM
JBR RMM
New DAMD lip
New front bumper
10mm spacers
Replace fender liners and splash shield
I was also planning on changing my wheel colour but another member just got his wheels redone in the colour I wanted so I'll probably just leave them as-is for the season.
Also getting four new tires. Can't decide whether to cheap out and get Falken 615k or REALLY cheap out and get Nexen n3000..
Where you gonna go purple :p?
haha, no matte burgundy :)Quote:
