not sure if serious...

 

Not serious...I've never looked into the IS or been in one, so I didn't know if it was FWD/RWD. Assumed FWD, since small sedan...oh well

 

Back to topic.....sorry, Ant

Made some progress on the hot side tonight. Merge collector done and passenger side almost done. We ran out of stainless, the rest of it will be here tomorrow.

looks awesome man, glad you got the tail lights in good. cant wait to see it done. saw your photo on instagram of the tires, did you pick a wheel and tire set up?

 

Thanks. Yea just some cheap 17s for now. Next year I plan to do a nice set of street wheels.

 

The hotside is 99% done now, just waiting on a stainless flex section to arrive tomorrow.

 

Some of Jons welds tonight. He was a little under the weather today but still managed to do a great job as always.

Heres how we left it for the night. It will go up in the air tomorrow to get the downpipe finished. I plan to run an aluminum exhaust after it exits over the front K-member
