Dropped my car off @MBRP again last night. They are taking some marketing material to post their products online with production versions of the exhaust.

A few things to note: they mentioned they will be taking the quad tip version off my car to do a cost analysis to see if it's viable to produce it at competitive pricing. Also, the best part, if you buy the outter dual or center dual, it will come with block off plates included. So you won't have hole in your diffuser.

Coilovers:

Scale suspensions kit is pretty awesome. I've been fine tuning the ride height, camber and alignment in my garage and softening the suspension as I go. I can actually make the car ride more comfortable than stock if I really wanted it to, but I won't. Cuz rasecor.

Lastly:

I am trying to get some carbon fiber Mudflaps designed to help with the extra stones being tossed because of my extra camber.

Haven't got my coilovers yet. Ask them why for me.

UPDATE:

Picked up my car from MBRP and have a production version of their exhaust. Here is a link to their post with sound clips of both set ups.

But here are some pics of it on my car. (Sorry for low quality)

I believe they have a build time for them. I think all their coilovers are made to order.

Love the center exit. It's pretty loud for being a rear section with no cat work. Sounds good to me, but I fear how it'll down with no cats

Tell them to hurry? Please

It looks really good but to me, some of what makes the car unique/special is the triple exhaust setup. Sure, others have a centered triple exhaust, but none others (that I know of) have done the split triple design. If I do get an aftermarket, it will definitely be something that keeps that intact.

Personally I preferred this set up mainly for that reason as well.

Did you ask if you could kee the triple setup even if it doesn’t go to production this way you have a 1/1

Yeah, they just took it back to do some cost analysis to see if it'll be a viable option to production. They'll be shipping it back to me soon.

Replaced the carbon fiber tips for stainless steel. Will go much better with the wheels I am putting on. The semi-slicks I ordered should be arriving this week. Then the new tires go on.

 

[teereqs]

I think the stainless looks much better

 

[GRBuba]

Great choice with going Stainless. Any recommendations on where to get tires? I'm currently looking for some as well.

I am trying something I never used before. They are called Zeknova SuperSport RS. They are made in Japan, and are mainly used on drift cars. They are a UHP 240aa tire and costs $600cad all in for a set. Going to see if they are nice. For $600 I don't mind buying tires more often. I will post more details about it once I get it. Maybe even offer a group buy option if more people are interested.

 

[Cptnslo]

Are those for an autox or what are you getting the tire set up for?

Track and DDing lol. Rainy days will be interesting.

 

[Raaaaay]

New tips look much better.

I see they don't offer them in 19", only up to 18" so I may consider these as well once I get my GR and depending on what your thoughts are on them once you drive on them more.

The HAWT.HATCH project is an exciting endeavor that aims to build and showcase a high-performance hot hatch vehicle. Here's an update on the build and the progress made so far:

1. Design Concept: The HAWT.HATCH project revolves around creating a hot hatch with a sleek and aerodynamic design, blending sportiness and functionality. The design team has meticulously crafted the exterior lines, ensuring an aggressive yet refined look that hints at the vehicle's high-performance capabilities.
2. Engine and Powertrain: One of the key aspects of a hot hatch is its powerful engine. The HAWT.HATCH project focuses on equipping the vehicle with a performance-oriented engine and an optimized powertrain. Extensive research and engineering have gone into selecting the right components to maximize power, torque, and overall performance.
3. Chassis and Suspension: To complement the performance capabilities of the HAWT.HATCH, the project emphasizes a well-tuned chassis and suspension setup. The goal is to strike a balance between sharp handling and everyday drivability, ensuring an exhilarating driving experience while maintaining comfort and stability.
