Got the new starter in today, finished up the fronts and made progress on the rears. Hope I can have every thing finished and back on the road by Monday

Today I parked it next to my mom's new 2012 5MT Sport that my dad and I picked up for her yesterday.

I celebrated my MR Fits 5 year anniversary last night by giving it a good washing. Spent a vacation day in the garage getting ready for our first car show of 2012! This will be my final year to show and then the MR Fit will be retired from car shows. I can't believe it has been 5 years already! This is the only car that makes me want to get behind the wheel and yup! have to say it - I love this car!

My Invidia N1!!

Couldn't wait to get it fitted the minute i got home, lol.

I was really surprised with the quality, everything fitted really well. Nice and close to the floorpan.
It produces a lovely deep tone without being too loud. I'm really happy with my purchase.

Hey, did you have to cut a small arc on the bumper to make the exhaust look flush or that's how the bumpers are in UK? Also, will you do some sound clips of the exhaust both in and out of the car?

Thanks!

Here is a link to a video of my newly installed Invidia N1 cat-back exhaust system.
Remember, my UK Jazz GD1 only has the little L13 I-DSI engine. I would imagine the US Fit sounds much better.

Unfortunately, the sound didn't come out too well... There was loads of road noise in the background and my exhaust was too lound for the microphone, lol.
Sounds much better in real life.

I hope to be able to post on the changes that I have a mess of expensive pieces to install.... If the Veterans Administration wasn't weeks late getting my medication to me on time life would be a lot easier...

Sounds real nice and full. At least not like many tin-can like sounds I've heard. Hope yours is a stick. Can't stand the sound of cat-backs on automatics. Just doesn't sound right for me...

Yeah, my GD1 has a 5 speed manual box.
The video doesn't do it justice, it's actually got a deeper tone but the mic couldn't pick it up.
