Haven't fully break in yet. But they sounded pretty awesome than stock its a little louder and noticeable at lower RPM and it's got a deep growing sound that feels like a race car =]

Nice man, I'm lookin at new exhaust for my 2012 also, and soon to hook up short ram intake injen, so pain in the ass huh! For the resonator lol
Yeah the resonator was a bitch lol.. What kind of exhaust are you looking at?

looking good, how low are you going to go with the coilovers?
First time lowering so just trying to adjust the ride for awhile and then gonna be looking for the wheel spacers and maybe bigger rims in the future but for more it's got a finger gap, before it was a fist =]

Finally Got that RRE Header back from Jet Hot coating , I had purchased RRE short tube header from RRE 3 month ago and they were being made, after 2 months I finally got a word from them and after I recived confirmation I called Jet Hot coating service in O.K to have them recive the header for me. Just after 2 weeks I recived my RRE HEADER!!! , Boy it was a pain to take off the OEM Header and 2 of the O2 sensors took me about an hour to take them out and when they were finally out they were cross threaded so I had to drive with just a bolt plugged in, let me tell you they sounded like shit. I was so upset and I order a replacement o2 sensor with the help of Medave, he told me to get on amazon and find a Denso. So they were 68 bucks and i had it next day shipping and total was about 100 bucks and bought some o2 wrench sockets and had it finally fixed!!


Installed!!

Great lookin' 4G, :bigthumb: I was wondering if your rims are the stockies plastidipped in black, I'm looking to do the same thing next weekend if I order their wheel kit today. I've got a '12 GS in Carbon so I'm planning on doing a Carbon and Black theme.

My rims came stock painted because it was offered in the Special Edition

how has the coating on those headers held up?
 
#25 ·
Still looks like when it was out of the box and it keeps the exhaust heat down which should be good for the engine compartment..
 
#26 ·
damn i wish i could get that done.

Got it directly from dealer 230 unpainted and 100 for body shop paint it.

haha yeah, the few the proud huh? I think thats what makes our fourms so unique.

I've thought about so many times on changing cars, I have a very strong buyer's remorse thing going on everytime I bought something lol.

Thought about the WRX, STI, Evos, FRZ/BRZ, BMW328~335, Benz C350, Nissan 370z Nismo, M3(coming M4 coupe) and list goes on and on. It's just one of the saying that someone else's news paper is better to read.

In the place I live (Seattle) every 100 cars you would only see 1 4G Eclipse which is why I still love this car because I know I'm the few that loves this car. It's a lot of emotion involved like it's my first car and bought it with my own money and things like that, so i'll be keeping this one until it's undrivable.
