Wow. You just got the car and you've done all that already? I'm impressed.

Not my style (especially that neon underbody), but it's your car.

Awesome car, and those neons are über bright!!!!!!

looks good

Woah! That's so nice!!! I wish I had money to do that :*(. Are those blue lights always on? Or can you turn it on and off whenever? I think they look nice but I think sometimes it would be nice to have them off...like if you were in a ghetto area or something...dont' want too much attention :P.

And I hope you installed a good security system in your car!

Wow, that's a lot of mods already. I just got my Silver Streak Mica XRS last week. I don't want to go in quite that direction but I would like to know where you got you intake and what kind (brand) of muffler fit.
Thanks for the info

Loud exhaust... you RICER!!!

Although I do like the neons

That said, welcome to TN.

rolla-XRS · 09-27-2004, 04:32 PM

Nice job!! I almost went blue (close 2nd choice). And those interior lights are exactly what I had in mind but couldn't find a way to do it nicely without hacking up my dash.

Whitby eh? And XRS keeps a comming....

eatmyxrs · 09-27-2004, 05:54 PM

Ajax eh? Nice... when the rolla's gonna ride together?

Yeah you can shut the neons off by remote control, both the interior and exterior from 500ft away.

My boyfriend has straight pipes for his exhaust on his 2004 Grand Prix GTP compG so I had to show him up with something louder... and I beat him out, sounds cleaner with less gurrgle and pop and is a bit louder even with a muffler on mine (if you can call it that... you can fit a popcan right through it). Sweeeet.

Sorry I don't know the brand of the muffler. The exhaust was custom made by a local muffler shop, and they just asked "how loud?", not which kind. The one they put on has 22.5degree 2.5" inlet and outlets pipes (I believe they called this an "Offset" muffler) and was a 4" canister. They made a new 2.5" U pipe to go over the back axle, tucked the muffler way up high so it's completely hidden, and made a little S pipe for the tip. I ran it without the tip with the exhaust just pointed at the ground under the car like the stock exhaust setup, but it was way too loud inside the car. After I put the tip on it's much nicer inside.

I've has a few people (on other forums mostly) ask about the exhaust sound and such. I'm hopefully going to shoot some videos tonight!

Kewl! The rolla's get together on the last Saturday of each month at Tim Hortons off Kennedy road (near Kennedy Commons) in Scarborough. Unfortunately you and I both missed that one - next one's at end of October.

There's a sticky somewhere in the "Meets" forums.

Nice exhaust!! And remote control cathodes? Ok now you've got the right idea. I never thought about that.

hachi_slow · 09-27-2004, 11:34 PM

In that second video, (correct me if I'm wrong) but did someone mention "boost" in the vid?

I didn't know that your car was boosted already. In your first post you have the supercharger listed in your next mods list. Did you put it on already in that video? If so, what psi did you set it at?
