Well we were going to town today to get some springs to lift the girl a little (only to normal XR height) ............. Seems the sleepy little town of Dubbo just doesnt stock things for XR8's ............. We have some ordered & I will pick them up tomorrow ;)
We then decided to go and get a few quotes on a better exhaust system ....... Stumbled across a TOP place called FARGO exhausts after a few other places that just didnt seem to want to do any work nor had any idea.......... Their whole attitude was top notch ...... we explained what we wanted & they put her up on the hoist without even knowing if we were going to do it or not ........ They then chatted to us about our needs & plans ........... We then decided on the best plan of action for what we really wanted ...... a bit more rumble .... a more true deeper V8 note ...... but not too loud ;) It was agreed that a mandrel bent 3inch straight through with a sports box on it was the best way to go .............. then for the question of when it could be done ............ Right away was the reply if thats what we wanted ...................... We were offered a lift to where ever we wanted to go but decided a walk was good as it wasnt too far to the shops ............. We were told it would take about an hour & half to two hours ............. not to bad I thought ........... Just under an hour later as we wondered through the shops I got a phone call to tell me the car was ready ................... We got back and were amazed ............. the job had been done expertly, the staff were all very friendly & we were told they were sure we would be happy ............... Happy !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HELL YEAH : SO now the Sprint has a Mandrel Bent 3inch Custom made Sports system (cat back) ................... 80 k's back to home & I know Im in a V8 again :P |
