FS:Tanabe Touring Medallion catback

Slapped on my stocker today and probably won't feel like putting on an STi cbe even if I find one, haha. Now it's straight up for sale. After inspecting it after I took it off, aside from being dirty, it's in great condition. No fat scrapes or gouges, mostly dirty. You should be able to see the condition in the pics. Also attaching some pics of it on the car, it's not as monster as some people think.... or maybe I just don't think it's that huge.

I had a Borla Hush on before and freeway drone gave me headaches in the wagon. The Tanabe is drone-less on the freeway but sounds awesome when you push it a little.

$400OBO







.... and a full-res pic of it off the car

TWSS! haha

Maybe it's because I have a wagon but I never get looks from cops. This is a super quiet exhaust but you still should shift early if there are cops around.

The tip doesn't look that bad to me, Its not like its a N1 style or anything.(maybe the angle of the vid is throwing me off) but if this was as quite as a evo2 I'd pick it up and paint it flat black. But I don't have a STI cbe only axle back *shrug* good luck on the sale

slightly aggressive look, yes. crazy tip, not so much. i think the angle in the vid is a little unflattering, haha. i've never heard an evo2 but that should be only a little quieter than the tanabe. i wonder if the mid pipe from my stocker would work with your axle back...

i sold my hush to get the tanabe.... WAY quieter. what i like most is no drone in the wagon. i love how it can get raspy sounding too... it's like GTFOutta my way, haha.

Yes, your stock WRX mid-pipe will bolt up to a STI axleback. I ran that setup for a while before getting the Tanabe.

I have a friend (also on i-Club) who may be interested. He has the STi catback on his wagon right now. Think we can swing by sometime to hear this exhaust?

Forgot to mention, you will be receiving my Kartboy hangers in this trade as well or else your bumper might melt. If I can't find my stock hangers, I might need yours though, haha.
