How do you like the HKS exhaust?
So far, really good! I like the features of the system and of course how it goes really well with my other HKS parts. The build quality of the system components itself is top notch. I like that the joint connections are flanged. I do like the sound and tone which is of a deeper note and definitely gives the car/engine more character.

With this platform I only have personal experience with the following exhaust systems. Listed in order, from junk>good>better, of my preference for the sound/tone:
1. FL5 stock
2. DE5 stock
3. Apexi N1 valved
4. HKS hi-power

Props to your photographer/editor, this is an amazing shot.

How many miles of good roads are there in O'ahu? Ever ship your car to the Big Island and drive Mauna Kea?
Thanks!

Our roads aren't the greatest by a long shot but we do have some pretty open Highways aka "H1, H2, and the H3". I have not shipped my car to the Big Island. Have you? We need the Superferry to come back!

No, but I visited the Big Island when I was 12 and it was really cool. My dad was into Iron Man triathlons back in the day and we did a tour of the whole island including driving up to Mauna Kea observatory. That's where you should hoon your CTR.


My Geoguessr skills coming in handy. I even lined up the shot!

Love to see aftermarket 19's on a car. I think it looks much better on the frame of our cars.

Amazing shots, do you have any high rez versions anywhere?
All I have so far are the photos the photographer sent to me using the Dropbox app.

These really are amazing photos that are worthy of posters or what you would see back in the day in magazines or the posters would buy and pin up on our walls as children
