#87362, "My new rims and my GST exhaust! PICS!"


          

I just picked up these rims the other day. They're Icon W65 17x7 rims with 215/45/17 Bridgestone Potenza RE92s. They look great! I also threw on a GST exhaust while I was at it. I like the look my stock one had with a 3.5" rolled tip, but the sound of the GST exhaust is definitely worth the downgrade in the looks department (not that it really looks bad). Let me know what you guys think.

PS I also bought some H&R Race springs, which I shouldn't have. I thought they were a little more mild of a drop. They're for sale or trade in the classifieds if anyone's interested.









She's been sold emoji My best friend bought her though, so she's still in good hands.

I actually have a video clip of me autocrossing with the new exhaust on. I'm not sure where I can host it though. Any clue? Its like 19 megs or something. To answer your question though, the GST will sound a little different than the 420 with the GST exhaust. The turbo filters out some of the nastiness of the exhaust note and makes it nice and mellow. Still sounds really sweet though.
