Thanks to member HAL-Aki posting on his IG yesterday and providing me the info as to the company, which just so happens to be the same company that makes the recent front pipe I purchased, Hyakushiki Jidousha I ordered up a new resonator less rear pipe.
Paired with the front pipe and resonator less J's Ti mid-pipe, the car is going to have a bit more aural ecstasy. Definitely won't be on par with my old 5R Integra and the Amuse resonator less exhaust, but I'm sure I'll get black flagged on at least 1 of the circuits I go to, so I'll have to swap on site.
Just a picture from this morning for #FitFriday

So I got the Hyakushiki pipe, installed it and yes it was loud and I liked it. Then I got to thinking, I still have my original J's canister so I went to work on it and dissected the canister leaving me with a half length Titanium straight pipe. Just about 75min ago swapped out the Hyakushiki for the J's and ohhhhhh my it's louder in the cabin as it is tucked up under the chassis and it now reminds me of my old 5R Teggy. Just nowhere near as quick. Ti just has a whole different sound to stainless. Only a matter of time till I get stopped by the JPs I'm sure, but until then, game on.

You'll never hear me say such nor will I ever wear earplugs. My old 5R Integra I also removed the canister from the Amuse R1 after 1 night the inner perforated pipe blew a hole in it and eventually all the packing was gone. So I removed that canister and drove around like that for a year and a half until I left Japan and had to sell the car (still have the Amuse piping). Neighbors are just going to have to suck it up.

Been contemplating letting this thing go to the yards. The amount of money dumped into it, I would be lucky to get like $4k for it, nature of Japan and that might be high balling because of what it was transformed into. That is just insulting and would rather kill it versus just giving it away.
With that being said, if I indeed do fully decide to let go, the wheels, suspension, brakes will be going up for sale. Prices won’t be negotiable and low-ballers need not even ask. I don’t need to sell, but will sell if people are willing to pay the asking price. I’ve always sold items for what I would consider quite fair, in fact I have had people DM me on other forums bitching about my pricing being low and screwing up the game.
So possibly be on the lookout, I have like 7 sets of wheels all fake replicas :P, in the for sale forum.

Sad to hear, your car has been an inspiration to me for many years. Not many people build and use cars the way you have with high quality functional parts. If I could purchase the car complete and import it stateside I most definitely would.
