Yep, no idea what Suzuki was thinking with the stock exhaust on that model. the 07 stock can is about a 1/3 the length, black and nowhere near as ugly.

Suzuki was just adhearing to restrictions like every other manufacturer in Japan. Rules change.

No stock pipe will ever be as disgusting as this:

Congrats ham! Found one u want yet?

about to start looking!

where is the best place to look,

so far i'm just on carsales and evolutionoz

to be honest, i'm a little sick of them lol.

says the guy with a yellow R34 gtt :P

Hamish, did you leave the dick drawn in the dust on your heatshield? Lol

the dick stays... it's been there for like 2 years man.... washed it but you can still see it

Everything's expensive on Evo oz, "selling my pride and joy" lol. The fact that they think a modded 7 is worth more than an 8 blows my mind

Carsales is good, Sydney is better.. I was gonna go up for a week and just look at a few and buy one until this popped up.

Becoming? Mate it was like that 8 years ago when I use to go out

Haha well I dunno, I think it's shithouse now. Used to love going out when I was 18-21. Almost 23 and haven't really been out in the past 18 moths lots (misses) but yeah, went out on the weekend and I was like wot.... :|

Got me thinking though, maybe shit wasn't better when I used to head out, possibly was just a lot younger and thought it was mad cool. Lol probably exactly the same, just matured lol.

I'm sure every manufacturer adhered to the same rules and none came out with anything as hideous as that.

That Ducati pipe has nothing on the 08 gixxer

I got mine on Gumtree, 7 grand due to the previous owner not checking the oil and lunching the engine.

I just placed an order for a full Brian Crower 2.3 stroker kit with all parts to rebuild the engine and it only came to $3700. Including the machining I should be able to keep it under $13,000 total cost by my estimates.

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
