Cheers lad!, I'm fairly happy with it at the moment but sure enough I'll start doing the basics to it sooner or later. It's basically stock apart from the 2.5 xforce cat back and having been lowered. I lie actually lol I put a sub and a amp in it!, it's only a cheapy to begin with I'll get it all sorted when I get around to it.

Ok so I got the exhuast dumped before the diff today, the rear boxes had cancer & sounded like sh#t anyway so it had it coming. Now its loud as f#ck and doesn't sound to bad but does crackle and pop fairly well under deceleration and im a little worried about the attention it may attract!, I just had a good look on the RTA website (NSW) and can't find what I'm looking for and was wondering if anyone here could help please.
* Am I aloud to dump the exhaust before the diff in a ute?
* If so how far past doors / windows does it need to be?
I have a little problem with acting first and asking questions later..... but like I said above the rear boxes were pretty much on there last legs, so im not a complete idiot for having the xforece cut up... =)

Goes down, cut a section out faced it down and put a slight kick on them so they weren't straight down, still has the rear boxes in place just not being used.
