I finally put in the straight pipes on Saturday night. Sounds
great, and breathes much better. I can't get over how heavy the mid
muffler is. It must be close to 40 pounds.
I have 2 new projects:
1. Carrier bearing:
I noticed when I did the exhaust, that the center drive shaft
bearing is pretty mushy, which is probably why I hear a rubbing noise
when I accelerate fast. Does anyone know where I can get a new one? I
know this was brought up before, but I couldn't find the info.
2: Suspension:
I would like to get a suspension set up that would maybe lower the
car a little, but not drastically. My struts need replacing anyway, so
I figured it was a good time. I looked at tirerack.com, but my car
isn't listed. Any suggestions?
TIA
