yea I want to add pipe off the ends. they end there right now because the body of the mufflers prevents it from going farther.

we have a little bit of work to do to finish it. You all dont know that we got her together with a week till FormulaD Atlanta ProAm and took her to Sebring to test. 3rd run, rod knocked. So instead of time to fix all this stuff, I had to pull motor, swap to another block I was selling, while getting car to paint, and getting it back and then re-installing it all. in 3 days.

itll get better.

the inners are CV's. if you look close you can see the boots.

he has been around racing and building axle parts since he was born. His family pretty much invented the quick change rear end and racing axles as we know them today.

Dude, go get some worm clamps, put them around your exhaust bushings, and tighten them up. It should help pull the exhaust up a little bit.

I have never thought about that, but my bushings also dont sag all that much. Its just the center section that hangs. Modifying my downpipe to sit closer to the floor will help some.

Finally have it back from paint. Happy with one side, the other side has some slight onlyIcanSeecuzImAnal imperfections I need to detail/compound away when the paint cures. Looks pretty awesome though, almost brand new!

Gotta finish piecing my 5spd parts together.

Anyone have a S14 clutch pedal?
