^ the exhaust is straight back using 2 Magnaflow mufflers and Ractive tips. To make this happen the spare tire well was removed and replaced with flat steel.

they are just regular 95-96 tails. The bottom isnt completely clear unless you open them up.

I like the first SC, but minus the front grille(Nothing should be there with that bumper), the "baseball" stitching around the seats, and the missing center vent surround

Second SC looks awesome as usual...love that engine

just curious, did you ever consider snaking the exhaust pipes around the tire well? and possibly line up a muffler sideways like on a porsche/mr2/etc..

I really like the center exhaust, but don't want to loose the tire well

Since the car is turbo making the exhaust as straight as possible was essential so "snaking" it around was never an option. Not sure if its even possible with the room available from the well to the rear bumper for a bend plus the tips and still remain flush.
With the size of my front brakes a the OEM or supra spare woudln't fit anyways.
