Yeah, The clutch stop is the best bargain mod for this car! After installing it the car is so much nicer to drive! Thanks to Raikku, too

And about this car, after driving it 2 weeks back, it is mean! I absolutely love the sound and I bet the local law enforcement also know it
Gotta get the back boxes out of my car also!

Cheers,
SodeM5

It is made of steel/aluminium/iron/rubber/plastic so it sure should handle some light snow and if not it deserves to go to junk yard :P

My garage is so full at the moment....again that i don't even know if i can get the car in there for the winter. PRobably going to install a heater and drive it thru the winter also.

So yesterday i installed my straight pipes back on. I am using the stock mufflers in the winter because of the volume/sound this thing makes with cold pipes. So when installing them i thought to mess with them a little and chopped them in to pieces and installed small mufflers in the back



MUFFLER SUPER 2,5" 115x185mm lenght 320mm

and i think the sound improved a lot from just straight pipes from the cats. I will post a new video of the sound to day at some point. Only problem is that it is snowing....again....

If you mean the sound, yes it is, but i was really thinking about my neighbors, so i decided to go for the small mufflers. 5 hours of work to uninstall OEM mufflers. Chopchop the straight pipes, weld the new mufflers in between and i also cut the tips so that they look more oem style, meaning the outside one is little bit shorter.
