Ended up with Work Kiwami. 19x8.5 +35 19x9.5 +38

New Wheels due to arrive mid March. Cant Wait :D

I'v got stock exhaust but dont really want to sell it.... kinda like collecting stock parts. LOL

Hi All

I have been toying with the idea of putting some aftermarket rims on my ISF. Currently is has the stock MY11 Wheels and standard tyres.

I have been looking at the SSR GTV02

19x8.5 +38 Front

19x9.5 +45 Rear

And also the Work Emotion CR Kiwami

19x8.5 +35 Front

19x9.5 +38 Rear

I would like to upgrade to 235/275 tyres once my tyres are due.

Would anyone know if I will rub with the Work CR Setup? (I dont want to shave/roll my fenders)

I have never bought a set of rims in my life so I am kinda new to this.

PS - I have done LOTS AND LOTS of Research but cant find anyone with these rims/combo already on thier ISF.

Thanks ALL!!!

I will try do a video when possible and upload to youtube.

Update

Just did a 2nd cat delete and change the mid muffler to a 3" res. Car is abit louder with NO DRONE. Has abit more rumble to it at bottom end with a little bit of rasp between 5-7k rpm. Very Happy!!!

Hi All

This is not my car... but it is what it sounds like with just the HKS SSM Axle Back

And this one also has the HKS Midpipe which is discontinued.

Yeh. I have been on the hunt for the HKS Midpipe (Discontinued) for the past 2 month with no luck...

I got the Axleback for about $2.8k shipped. Worth the money :)

Hi All

I recently put on a HKS SSM Exhaust on my MY11 F and thought I would share my opinion of the exhaust with you all incase anyone is looking at doing the same.

As soon as the exhuast was fitted, I took it for a drive as one would do. First thing i realised was that interior cabin sounds was quiter than stock and less drone than stock (I personally think the stock system has a tiny amount of drone). Drone was one of my largest issues as on my 08 ISF i installed a ISS Forged DES and felt that it droned to much to my to my liking and I sold the exhaust a few week after it was installed. Also the HKS SSM has a lovely pur when cruising around at lower RPMs.

Now... once you give the pedal a good punch, you can hear alot of induction from inside the cabin as we all do but from the outside of the car, the Exhuast sounds GREAT. Sounds like there is alot of back pressure and sounds much deeper than stock. Exhaust currently does not really RASP as I have not changed the mid pipe yet. (next thing to do)

Over the month, the exhuast has got a bit deeper but still no drone at all.

Hi all

I just wanted to see if anyone has had headers installed on thier ISF's in Melbourne? If so, where did you get them done?

Thanks
