Wanted to know who all would be interested in group buys for parts from a company who will be soon doing R&D for the X3 (95-99).... The most likely parts will be CAI, full catback exhaust, possible headers, maybe more.... let me know all who would be interested!!!

I'd be interested possibly in a catback depending on how bad the pricing is and the size/workmanship on it... how bout a company not in korea making sway bars for the front and back... lets see what else.... i suppose there not making th efront and rear lights as everyone that has or will own a x3 will pray for.... AH might wanna see if they can do a pulley kit especially the alternator and pump because they havent been made yet and a set of lightened pulleys would be awesome maybe a little bit smaller than stock to hlep them spin faster.

Well, I don't know about the pulleys or the sway bars (or strut bars for that matter) but there is guaranteed a full catback exhaust for sure and I 've heard that these guys do a really good job in regards to worksmanship so you won't have to worry about that. Everything they do make for us will be made in house so they are fully capable. The strut bars might be able to happen, I'd just need to get with them again and ask about something like that considering the only other ones come from korea (even though mine got to my house in like 2 weeks which aint bad on a boat) but of course the lights is something that they don't really focus on. I can talk to the guys there and see, but really don't expect anything like that out of them. They tend to stick to their name which would be vibrant PERFORMANCE... I've only seen performance mods come outta them, but if we can get people interested, then I'm sure they can give a crack at it. Anyone else interested be sure to let me know! If you like send an email to me at john_seery@xtremeevolution.com and I'll get right on it.

Hey man, I could easily be interested. Having boosted my car, I am in need of a high flowing exhaust, need not be street legal either. I always like that look where the muffler comes out at an angle, and kinda upward... Know what I mean? They do it on Supras, and Eclipses... Tell them I would be happy to put a system on my car , and pay the dyno time at a local dyno shop to see the results. They just need to give me a severe discount on the system...

Gimme a shout when you find out...

Thanks

I would be interested as well. I already have a header and a full header back exhaust, but there are plenty of other things. I would be especially interested in products that stiffen up the chassis and some suspension modifications. Keep me informed!

I'm in, i was just lookin' at a new fireball muffler because i dont like the sound of my Magnaflow. so why no go cat-back. definately a CAI, they only have it for a 5-speed, i need one that will fit around my massive auto-trany for now until i slap the beta in there. Let me know. oh and a header for sure!!!! peace

I'll be needing a set of good long tube 4-1 ceramic coated headers with cat and a performance exhaust for my X3 by midsummer, and a CAI that actually goes into the fenderwell would be nice w/o having to make one.

Definitely need pricing though... the header shouldnt be hard to be as the good ones from Oz are US$400+. A good cat-back (2.25" mandrel bent) for what I can get it for locally or from EvoFusion if I want to wait till next summer ($250-350), with or without a resonator but with the muffler/tip not coming out at some retarded angle. CAI <$100

count me in for the CAI, Catback, headers. how bout better headlights a good flashlight could project light better than the stock headlights at night.

95_Accent_GSI · 01-06-2005, 06:35 PM

GTurismo12 - then get the HID conversion from shark racing

phantam · 01-06-2005, 06:56 PM

LOL i know what ya'z sayin hehe but even HID's in our headlights will look crappy, i mean there not the crystal clear lenses what we need from vibrant are some projector headlights that fit maybe a projector wrap around that fits the entire space from headlight to turn signal like the really nice ones for the civic
