    IIrc 8g exhausts have 2 resonstors right, and are they straight through or chamber design? I switched from a straight through muffler to a turbo muffler to avoid tickets. Now I find myself wanting a lil more sound, but still be quieter than the straight flow muffler I had. Thinking of removing one resonstor or replacing one with a bullet race muffler and hopefully the additional flow will give more sound, thats if the resonators arent straight design to begin with.

    Thanks fot any input

    Resonators are straight through, its what they're packed with that muffles the sound.

    Was afraid of that. Thanks for responding. I wonder if deleting one will be too loud for my goals. My previous muffler was louder than a g35 and my current turbo style I think is a little quieter than one. Tryna hit the nail on the head in terms of loudness of a stock g35 or a hair louder, I know the exact sound probably wont be duplicated.

    Need to let someone drive my car around in a lot to see where im at in sound currently. Maybe getting a smaller resonstor in length will do the trick but keep rasp down.

    Is this a correct brake setup, It seem wrong to me if you can see the picture you can see the big spring is connected to the lever and the small spring behind is holdeing the pads together i think it should be the other way (yes this is how i opend it up)

    Tried to google for threads on here to see if it's been done before, but would a 3g auto knob be a direct fit on 8g w/ no modding?

    Thanks for any input

    No. Not without cutting the plastic piece inside. I also think they sit too high on the galant. Not sure if anyone has pics to compare

    Positive to positive and negative to negative. As long as the specs are similar and the mounting brackets are similar you should be good to go. 6X9's are kind of a pain to replace imo, the speakers in the door are easy. I would just go buy some aftermarket speakers from best buy or amazon personally, they aren't very expensive.

    You have the standard stereo or the Infinity? Make sure the impedance is matching as well.

    On V6 acceleration vibration issue, are we just doing the washer trick? Anything else that it could be?

    I'm stock height with new axles and the shit is bad. 01 GTZ.

    Not sure I know what the washer trick is

    On the wheel side of the axle you place a washer on the axle spline shaft before it goes through the hub.

    Really? I also have a v6 and wonder if this would help with my vibration issues. I'm assuming there is a tutorial around about that? With sizes and all?

    Rear stabilizer bar should be 19mm, and front stabilizer bar should be 17mm, IIRC.

    i believe the GTZ came with the 19mm and the ES came with an 18mm on the back.
