The GReddy SE is not very loud. It's def mild, but I think you wouldn't be happy with it. Get the GReddy Ti-C single or the dual!


Joy_Ride does have that exhaust, and she was disappointed with the tone when she got it on.

oh really?! hmm.. what about the magnaflow? it's also just the one that bolts on right after the y pipe.. not the the full y pipe...

I guess there is no real point in getting an exhaust unless it's at least a cat back...but i just want some sound so i wonder how the magnaflow's.....flow lol..

Cool.. her rims ship out next week supposedly... and mine do as well i think..

She said she doesnt care for the light and the beeping sound.. but i'm sure she would like to have the swap done.....that's like 200 bucks right off the bat though...at least it is at Franks... he said its 25 bucks a tire/rim to do it.. and that's 4 stockies and 4 new rims...

taking out the sensors to put in the new rims.. and then rebalancing each wheel... sheesh..

now that i think about it.. i'm in the same boat! lol

Springs on pretty much any car are easy, the only hard part is getting the nut on the stop of the strut to come off. Outside of that it's a very straight forward remove/reinstall.

I found the trick is to actually loosen the nut while the car is on the ground first.. get it to the point where its almost ready to come off...so it just doesnt keep spinning around and around.. OR have an impact gun like me lol..

S2000 Spring install:

It is a BOTTTTCCCHHH to get the front strut OFF the car, because you have to like master the puzzle of removing it, or just take off the lower control arm. It's annoying. My MX-5 was a pain to do the springs too.


In our cars, all you gotta do is unbolt from the strut tower, and unbolt from the bottom, and the strut comes right out. Its cake compared to some cars.
