Should I get the 3bar sensors for the Westers Race tune?  And stupid work prevented me from grabbing those carbotech pads. ;)
You don't need the 3 bar sensors really but NOW can just change the MAPS calibration with HPT.  Just need to carry out to 5 decimal  places on the HPT linear offset page.

Is that ZOK rear sway bar an upgrade to the one currently on the GXP?

Cool...I might want dibs on that...gonna call DDMWorks and see if they can add that to their install lit for the mod meet.

How much of a difference does it make?

can't comment on driving without one - always had a Z0K bar in the back of both gxp's i've owned.  best handling car i've ever driven on the street.
also, thread has been updated with what's sold.

Having used both on the rear, on a GXP/Redline the result will be a much more neutral and responsive car - very much like a Z0K 2.4. WELL worth having.

Its brackets and bushings. And, they appear to be in the picture. It's a GOOD deal.

all items paid in-full before today have been shipped.
i've updated the thread with what's left, and re-organized it for easier reading by grouping all available and sold/pending items together.

Dennis, I'll be at the autocross event at PIR this weekend.  Wanna take my car for a spin to remind you why you need a third kappa?   :devil:

SOLO Performance 3" Street Race Exhaust w/ Resonators - $400
Note: will *not* ship, due to size/shape.  Can deliver anywhere within a reasonable distance from the I-5 in Oregon/Washington/BC.


Boardkat,

I only live about 6 miles from the I-5!  When can we meet?  Just kidding.  I do live really close to the 5, but in San Diego.  Any chance you travel down this way by truck?  I'd be interested in the exhaust, but I'm not headed up your way any time soon.  Also, the resonators were for the coupe to stop the "drone" in the cabin correct?  How do they effect the sound out the pipes?  As far as you know, would this system just hang right up on the Vert too?  same mounting hooks and everything?

Thanks,
GJ

not sure it'll be around next spring, but i plan to be in SD for a national autox event around that time.  could probably throw it into a friend's trailer and cart it down then.
i never installed it on my coupe, it was on my 07 'vert.  had the resonators welded in because there was unbearable drone at highway speeds.  once installed, the drone disappeared.  overall sound became more refined (less rasp), but decreased by only a few dB's - still much louder than stock @ WOT, the kind of sound i was hoping for when i bought it without the resonators.

Is the exhaust system still available?  Or does GJ have first dibs?
