Recently did a bit of work on my XR4Ti.I added a 16mm rear sway bar, MC2racing nylong semi trailing arm bushings, polyurethane beam mount bushings, Eibach springs, mono black cladding and rear bumper, and painted the front bumper and rear wing. I'm pretty happy with the way it turned out. Next up is the brake upgrade with 10" vented rear discs and 12" front discs with PBR dual piston calipers.

While I had the exhasut off to access the rear suspension, I figure I'd snap a few pictures of it. The pipe in front of the muffler is from Stinger Performance. The muffler is a Magnaflow and the tailpipe was salvaged from an XR4Ti in the junkyard. The tip was from Summit racing and is a 3" to 3.5" slash cut with a rolled lip. Not shown is the 3" downpipe also from Stinger Performance and the 3" Magnaflow high-flow catalytic converter.

I also repainted the core support. Still need to paint the headlight buckets. It looks a lot better now.
