You should have used a mandrel bender for that 5", they are really the only way to that.

Did you add those super trick wheel spacers to make your car appear to have really big tires also?

Yep. I made the spacers on my new Howie Mandrel bender. Ever since I got it, I have this weird tendency whenever I make bends... I want to shave my head bald and not allow people to touch me.
:bom:

Must be a hot idea then, since Ive seen similar things on so many other supras.You never thought of having a pipe bent to fit it? Maybe that would be too simple for you. You could have even notched your firewall, you said yourself you like to fabricate things. You must enjoy it since you do so much of it. It would have made it look less terrible and not like an 8th grade welding project.
You're right though, I guess I would waste a lot of time making something that flows terribly and looks twice as bad too.
Can you even weld? You should defiantly be a fabricator, because I can tell you know a lot.

Your motor is clean, but your down-pipe looks terrible. And you should have sold the T-Shirts to fund the purchase of bending machine.

o c'mon a mandrel bender can bend pretty well. it all depends on who is using it i guess. If you are good at using the machine you are capable of a lot of things. you think you have a space issue under the hood of your car?? try working on a 300zx. gotta pull the motor for almost everything. those cars with their engines aren't an easy task.You ever worked on a 300zx? You should and your butt buddy should start a custom fab shop for your douche canoes.

will you stop using the word pipe? it's "tubing" you dumb shit.A tube and a pipe are the same fucking thing except tubing is usually plastic and a pipe is usually a metal... They are both a hollow cylinder used for the same shit...

no tubing is tubing and pipe is pipe.Calling a part of a car something doesn't change what it is made from.... so learn something.
Go take a basic geometry class you retard. they are the same thing and who would call exhaust piping exhaust tubing that just sounds retarded. you must wear a helmet when you are in public??

I really don't think these guys get it.Please stick to your plaid interior mods.
you aren't unique like me... cant handle that my interior probably looks better than yours? I have gotten a lot of compliments by a large amount of people... its nice when you can do nice work like this by yourself. feels pretty good given i did the whole thing in about 5 hours even replaced a speaker and took my armrest out while doing it...
