Problem is, I never recieved the email you are supposed to get after registring that has a link you click to activate your registration. I signed up tuesday and still no email....oh well, I will try again later. My name is Abear on H-I.com too, so if know one of the mods let them know whats up.

Actually it is pretty minor stuff to the exhaust. I wanted a G35 or 350Z type sound. I just had both resinators removed, I had a high flow cat installed, and 4.5" round/angle cut tips put on and refinished the mufflers. Actually my car has almost has the same power of 1 Chuck Norris roundhouse kick!

Small world, I'm around Parmer & 620 too... Right around Avery Ranch - Oakbrook. Usually in a black NSX leaving my signature at the stop-signs, then obeying the speed-limit! Occasionally in a gold/grey 2nd gen. ES300 w/ jack'd up hood & spaceship sounds from unknown areas or metallic-green/grey, tinted '97 Rodeo 4x4 that sounds like a vacuum-cleaner...

Did you [Caius] get your white GS300 recently? A friend fwd'd a TRS thread to me about someone who got a 1st gen. GS300 that had some nice stuf on it & I recall it was real clean/classy.

Anyways, I noticed you mentioned in the other TX thread about some Supra guys. I know some of them from Boostlogic (Keen's a good friend), even a few SC300 guys w/ built-up monsters . Though, I haven't done the Van's/YMCA/Home-Depot gatherings in over a year, so I'm not sure who's around and who isn't now. I need to check-out the north Home Depot gatherings on Sat' nites near Cedar Park, I hear lot's of interesting stuff to see.

IronCobra, I think a clean, newer SC300 might be in the cards for me in the future. I saw a light-metallic blue one the other evening... my jaw just dropped! Still looks timeless, I just hope clean-specimens exist out there. I'm already planning what I want to do to it (mostly subtle cosmetic stuff & bolt-ons)!

1.5" lip on the front and 4.5" lip on the rear... an actually I lied, my car isn't anywhere near the power of a Norris roundhouse... that's impossible even for the space shuttle... it's fact!
