Re: RR's 3.2L '99 EX-L Coupe 6MT

It seems like you've been silently updating the OP, Mr. RR.

One thing caught my attention:
Future Projects: Modification

- Tanabe Hyper Medallion exhaust
I don't know if I asked you before, but don't they only make for I-4 models? I like quiet exhausts, and I'm a big fan of Hyper Medallions. They were the top of my choice for my exhausts in the future (ever since I got my car in '07), but I thought I ended up figuring out that they don't make for V-6 models.

... Wait a min. Maybe this is b/c you have CL-S engine that you can mount the one for CL model... If that's the case,... maaan, that's not fair... That's just not fair at all, Chris...

A keen eye, Richard lol. I have been updating the mod list and have a lot to update the thread with, but waiting until the new wheels are done to do so. Then I have many photos to take haha.

When I met Rich for my swap, he had the Hyper Medalion catback on his 7GA 6spd, and I loved it because it sounded more like a race exhaust. It would pop on the overrun and it was a little higher pitched. They don’t make it for the 6GA (from what I see), so you’d either have to buy the 2G TL system and custom fit it…

…or you could buy the universal Hyper Medalion muffler and weld it on.

Not sure what the difference between those two setups would be sound-wise though. I think there are sound clips on the site but I'm at work lol.

Anyone with a J motor could fit the TL system though. Just might require a little custom work length-wise, and possibly muffler piping depending on where they end up.

I think that is going to go VERY well with the look you have going on.

Good news, indeed.

^Yeah, A-Specs will become fall/winter wheels since the OEM’s won’t fit anymore.

Can't bring myself to sell the OEM wheels for some reason. lol
