EZ-E Posted January 8, 2006 Share Posted January 8, 2006 Definetly sounds really nice, great job with the car, now all you need to do is get some protection up front for that IC before it becomes a mess from road debri. Great looking and sounding car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
240hoke Posted January 8, 2006 Author Share Posted January 8, 2006 Hey guys, thanks for the compliments! sparky -- its a Dynomax Ultraflow SS muffler, straight through 16" canister. cygnusx1 -- The bumpers are staying off for now, I would like some euro 240z bumpers or carbon fiber bumpers, but i have the money for neither so bumperless it will remain. I kinda forgot the whole saving money for aesthetic things. EZ-E -- I will be putting some black mesh on top of the i/c to help protect it. Jsut one of the many little things left to do. Ive toyed with the idea of blacking out the i/c so it will be somewhat hidden with bumpers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hybrid240z Posted January 8, 2006 Share Posted January 8, 2006 Awesome. Your 240Z build is coming out great. Gives us something to shoot for. LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cygnusx1 Posted January 8, 2006 Share Posted January 8, 2006 It looks fine without the bumpers. I would just put a grill up front. I use the Magnaflow round muffler, straight through 2.5", only at the rear. It's the only muffler on the system. I ran 2.5" pipe all the way. Are you running 3"?
