dude, money is money, and if your going to make a profit then do it, you could sell that one and buy a used single n1 for like 200 or so, or do a muffler shop with a can for under that and have money for shocks and suspension stuff.
i could go to like every drift event thru the rest of the year with plenty of tires.. how much more power do u think the dual N1 actually makes then a stock exhaust.

on a KA? not too much, prolly loses some power low end. one of the main reasons i bought one was because i had to replace the hideous dtm muffler the previous owner put on..

the apexi turbo exhausts for the KA's regulaly do 10-15 WHP and 10-15 WTQ with no losses ANYWHERE.
KA's love to breathe.

Evan,
Where did you get that exhuast for free? Wish I could grab a deal like that,haha.
And, if I were you, I would sell it. 500 bucks is a good amount of cash.

if you were evan, but you're not. you didn't receive a gift because youre a really good up and coming drifter at a young age. youre just someone who types about it on the web.
keeping the exh is the man thing to do evan, just work harder this summer for the rest of the mods.

Matt,
What the hell is your problem brother?
You know who I am (Geno).
I don't drift. I have no interest at all in drifting.
I was simply curious as to where he got the exhuast from.
He asked for advice on whether he should sell it or not, and I gave him my oppinion.
500 bucks could go a long way towards other things. Hell, you could buy Ground Control coilovers for that money. To me,that's better spent.
I think that you should take your elitist bullshit elsewhere. Your brother was quite right about you.

Also funk, it being a gift and all, it wouldnt be bad if ya found a replacement N1 under $500. Then its like having your gift and $50 - $100 too. And nobody even needs to know.

Are GC's that bad?
I have heard mixed reviews about them.

i dont like the idea of grinding my strut perches to run GCs, ill be happy with some stiff springs, if you run too low with most struts youll blow them anyway.

see, this is just a prime example of people who dont do any work on cars trying to tell the people that do work on cars what is right and what is wrong.
i love it!
I did not attack you in the thread, I did not cut you down, I just explained to you why evan was not going to sell the exhaust. Selling the exhaust would be unethical. Granted 500 dollars could be spent towards other things, but it would be the same thing as selling drugs , or selling things that your mother gave you that meant alot to her / you etc.
The only true way to modify your car and be happy with it is by working for those parts.

I understand where you are coming from.
But granted, you are not Evan,correct? He asks for an oppinion, he gets it.
I didn't come out of nowhere and tell him to sell it. He asked if he should.
And I don't think that an exhuast is too complex of a mod for me to have input on that.
It's bad that you assume that I don't have knowledge about what I'm talking about. You shouldn't assume so much.
For all I know, some kid could have just given it to him. Which is exactly why I asked where he got it.
I don't understand you man. You used to be a nice guy. I don't know what's happened to you over the years. I'm sorry that you are so bitter.

??? This is a forum, he asked for opinions, all of us gave them to him. it seems obvious the MINUTE celebritiness of the nissan forums has gone to your head. We all know you know your shit but a lot of people know there shit.

Uh...yeah.
Nice mature reply by a "moderator".
All I'm trying to say is that he asked for an oppinion, and I gave it.
It's not like I was trying to educate him on setting up his suspension (which I don't know how to do).
What I'm trying to get at is that, you need to relax.

you're the one that keeps kicking this to death, you stated your opinion, i stated mine, you were the one that attacked me with yours. this topic is over and if you continue to badger badger badger it, i will throw a snake at you and you'll be forced to run away in fright.
