Well after I did my suspension took it for a drive and the braking didn't feel as heavy on the front as it did before. About a week later noticed I had more brake dust gathering on the rear wheels than usual so all this pointed to the Load sensing valve on the rear end. Thought about it for weeks and sort of figured out how it works then did that modification on it, went for a test drive and immediately noticed an improvement, braking is now heavier on the front (Like before when it was at standard height) and the amount of brake dust gathering on the rear wheels has dropped.

Exhaust sounds like a receipt for disaster.

Well its all legal (maybe the db. limit too) and yeah that's what I want.
What do you mean I will get raped with no cats? Also will be quite flowmasters probably since the piping is 3inch and dumped at diff

NZ don't need cats.

Rocking along - in AUS we must have cats if they were in the car from factory. No cats = what Cava said.
