For what it's worth I'd quite like one of the HKS, how much are you after for it? I'd offer to work a deal with my XForce which is quite loud but it's had the end flange changed to a V-Band so probably not what you're looking for.

Hey guys, after some recommendations for a cat back system for a 03 GDB STi. Currently running a full HKS system HkS cat-less Down pipe and HKS silent Hi power cat-back. To be honest the exhaust note is nice but I’d prefer it a bit louder. In the past I have tried a few different systems on a previous 03 GDB STi but nothing seemed to tickle my fancy STS. What’s everyone running.? I want to enjoy the sound during the weekends but not give me a headache lol also not a fan of the low to mid crackle sounds thanks in advance lads Pez

So for now I have spoken to Falgz (HardPark) & G8R (Gumboot Rally)   I'll be aiming for a :1 day low key event similar to the ECC setup below their Entry was $320 (they had 50 ish cars = $16k)   Day 2 is optional but will be a Chill BBQ on the Beach maybe?   arrive between 8&9am couple or Tiki tours before Supplied Lunch after lunch you go for it, if you fall off he keeps your car   I'm still painfully waiting to hear back from ECC organiser (Busy person) as they have their "foot in the door" and on inital contact was happy to help   I don't want to clash, or run 2x event in the same month etc    

so this arrived in my DM''s today   I'm not sure if impressed, or ......... yeah I don't know     I've seen a de-skinned 2nd gen but this takes the cake   turd gen?

❤️ & yep all Worthy Suggestions   so not to brush ya off (as it has been a while since I done stuff like this)   I still need to confirm cost of venue or even basic availability   that's Stage 1 : the Organiser of the ECC event is getting back to me soon (got a bit on at moment)   so we do not clash, or double up events in quick succession etc (you may spot a few CS'er in the above ECC Photo album)   also to get a run down of how they did it, and join for 2026 to get a preview   and short story is I still have Shelly's Phone Number in my pocket when I volunteered 2x weeks there, I was 1 of 2 main guys Setting up & packing down with Rod   he may remember me and I have no Qualms going direct   and we even had an invite to the Mineshaft Wine cellar for Rod's friends BBQ while they were building their House    I was in the Thames Car Club 'timing caravan' updating the LED Screen during event from Start-line,   "Back in the day" I used to Hire & run Our Track days @ Taupo and Manfeild under my name and Auto-X's and 1/4 Mile sprints (Drags) with Dannevirke Car Club    (my way of saying "with kindness" : this isn't my 1st Rodeo hah ❤️ )   We've had 'loot' from Subaru NZ and Bridgestone before  (and Crowesport, and PBMS in the early FlatNATS years when they let me be involved)   BUT you sound like you've got a job proof reading or handling that side hah welcome to the TEAM    Falgz and I had a chat this morning & we'll focus on 1 day there for now HardPark Style just get together Driveway cruises Tour and a relaxed weekend   perhaps a "Gumboot rally" style tiki tour there departing PBMS perhaps   I'm focusing on Cost for now, there may be an entry fee etc     Image taken in the week after event there, he almost DNF'd a run going sideways across finish line clipign a tree with LR taillight (I found it and gave it back to him later)  I was in the Timing Caravan updating the LED Board with info   the majority of volunteers turned up day before and left day after ❤️    this was the #wrx25nz weekend where the Majority of 'winners' were our forum members hah 2017   I'd really like to visit Madlab on Day 2 perhaps tie in with an event there (or Tect Park / Thunder Ridge)   also if anyone can help me get or setup a [email protected] email that would be fab   as pointed out Professionalism is key (and I am aware I don't come across, or act 'grown up' most of the time ❤️
