New Toy's (Photos)
Since my brakes are pretty much shot, I decided to go Brembo. I will have the Brembo Sport Slotted for the fronts, and the Brembo Blanks for the rear. Deciding on Pads was hard, after researching for several weeks I decided to go with AEM pads.
Below are some pics.   Sometime next week, I will be having the exhaust redone. Since I am part owner of a performance shop and we have a mandrel pipe bending machine, we are going to make a custom exhaust using Polished Stainless Steel. We will be fabricating it based on my Greddy EVO except I will be using one 2 1/2" X 18" long stainless steel resonator, instead of the two 12" resonators Greddy opted for. We will be flanging the pipes just like the Greddy system, so I will able to remove the exhaust and swap the Greddy EVO one back on for the Winter, since it's already rusting on the Intermediate pipe. I assume everyone is wondering what muffler I will be using, huh? I decided to use the Universal Tanabe Super Racing Medalion ("Racing Spec") muffler. The Tanabe Super Racing Medalion exhaust is one of the best sounding exhausts I have ever heard, but they don't make it for 98-02 Accord, just the crappy Hyper Spec one, which is too conservative for me. Below are some pics of what the muffler and the resonator will look like. I will be taking many photos during the building process.   |

That's cool, I didn't know you owned a shop. It must be really nice to have all that equipment at your disposal
 Keep us posted on how the project goes.
