Default RS*R GTII Installed on 1995 Ej

So I'm a lazy expletive and I haven't driven my Civic in about 6 months. I've been buying pieces that need replacing and today I got around to actually taking it for a ride.

I removed the frozen/broken GC coilovers and AGX shocks. I replaced with H&R Sport springs and new AGX shocks all around. I also upgraded to SRR rear LCA's, JDM ITR 23mm rear swaybar, Beaks subframe kit and I installed the RS*R GTII Exhaust.

This thing is pretty, it really is. It just goes straight back and out at an angle. It doesn't follow the stock exhaust routing at ALL lol. On H&R Sport springs, it doesn't scrape at all... although I would like the car a little lower, I would worry about smashing the piping.

Construction of the unit is solid. The slip fit piping goes on perfect with no leaks, and also comes with a clamp and springs to hold the pipes together. Mine came with a tiny scratch or two, fault of a crappy shipper.

I immediatly took the silencer out since once you use the exaust its nearly impossible to remove. It does have a nice sound to it. Very low and deep. Almost sounds like a WRX/STI with an exhaust. The only problem i have is that its VERY loud. Almost unbearable. Maybe I'll get used to it, since I am used to a World Sport, but its definatly NOT suitable for a daily driver..

I'll get pics tonight and host them.

I hear about a lot of people subframes tearing because of the Beaks kit.

Depends on a lot of things. I've talked to many people running the same setup I am, with no subframe issues...
