Welcome, the edit post button is your friend, 4 posts in a row makes me queasy.
It looks a fairly clean example of the car. Good to see you've got a bit of maintenance know how around. As for the cannon, eh, whatever floats ur boat. If it Sounds great then $40 well spent.

And yep keep them races to the track cause we all know popo can spot a p plate from 2 k down the road.

Just noticed (and am envious of) the sunroof. Lucky.

I know I'm lucky, but if I can be quite ounest I didn't love this car before I went to see it, I only went to see it cause it had a sunroof and then I had a good look a it and it's quite a sxc car, the astina I mean (not just mine). I had a friend that owned one for years I used to just get in and out of it like it wasn't anything speacial, then again his was that green colour lol sorry if anyone has a green astina, it's just I like the darker colours and 7onyd's white is a sxc car.

mattylagana · 13-07-2011, 06:05 PM

So the muffler man says that "These days it doesn't matter if your cannon is dead quite, just having it mounted is illegal".... but hey you only live ounce(also is there any insight from anyone in nsw on this topic ??) pics follow

Getting it mounted

The poor old exhaust pipe

Fitted!!!

And here is a pic of it back on the ground..

So now we wait...Dam I hate this part, but the springs are on there way in the post.
so ounce the car being lowered becomes reality, then I guess most of you guys will agree rims will be needed asap

project.r.racing · 13-07-2011, 06:23 PM

Cannot believe the left the stock heat shield in. lol

SLY 323 · 13-07-2011, 06:29 PM

Awesome man! Should sound good. Can't wait to see it. Should sound better than the chopped exhaust.

well I gather it's there for a reason so I thaught I'd just leave it, why have you taken yours off or somthing??

the cannon actually was just about to be touching the heat sheiks itself so we just bent it up a bit more.
