Not sure. Chicaboo used to have a perry and recommended them for ages, he just said don't get a full exhaust as they'll sound poo. Was about 2-3 years ago when he told me.

I think they'd lose there tone and become more farty sounding. *shrug*

I dunno, my Perry was far too loud for me but then again, I'm not one for loud exhausts at all.

pssht. No point in being all noise and no go. If it was a v8, fine. Not with an NA 4 banger. A little bit of a grumble is ok, just not huge noise.

Why do you people all talk about my car?? Seriously?? Lol
It doesn't handle that great. And I am running 18's on 35 series tyres... It's not that smooth (should feel it with stockies )
My alignment isn't too great ATM either... But was waiting for bushes to get done... Otherwise it's a waste of money.

It doesn't go hard... Just like any sp20 out there.
Brakes are good, but don't have a great balance to them (yet)

And my paint is screwed.. And interior is just normal. Lol


None the less, still glad I can convince you all to spend more

Swift jimmy's one would out handle mine... When he puts the ZE in it will whip mine in the straights. He will be doing the brake upgrade, and his paint is nice... And reppin some clean wheels!

Drool over his... Not mine

Lol, dot get me wrong...
I love my car, and I like its current set up... And all issues will be addressed.

But I guess it's wierd being on the other side of things
I was usually looking to other people for mods and ideas....
Now I am finding like 6 different people atleast are looking at my car and going for a ride in it and wanting everything I have got :/

Just not use to it


And no... No.... You can't have those parts... And defs not both!

Aaron, its because you take everyone in your car! You little Wh0re!

Mine setup is nearly the same as yours (Not intentional i swear, okay, it is a little) and yours is still stiffer than mine. Im putting it down to the strut bars and thinner tyres. Handles brilliantly. Dont put it down at all
