Installed the 5zigen Pro Racer ZZ Cat Back today.
Qualitiy and fittment was exceptional good, very pleased with that.
Sound is awesome aswell, specially in the lower revs (between 1000-3500rpm). Have not done 100km yet with it and totally love the new sound already. It will get a bit louder over time so I'm more than happy.

Some pictures from today, could not do any proper fitted ones since it was getting dark when I was finished.

That's a nice looking exhaust, I remember you said that the laws are pretty stringent in your country. Is the intake/catback exhausts all legal? I guess since the cat isn't changed, emissions would be the same/similar.

Luis @ CarsonToyota can import them.. I've bought stuff from them before (not this particular wing), so they're reputable but sometimes it takes a looong time to get the part in:

It's not so much the emissions that are an issue, its more about the noise level. There are some EU rules we have to follow, which says that a car can have a certain amount of DB's at a given rpm. However, below or above that rpm the noise is not "normed" so can be louder.
Some of the JDM Exhausts are getting an "EDM" design, like a special silencer or modified "muffler" between the cat and the rear muffler itself, so they fullfill the EU norm and are legal to drive over here.

For the 5zigen, there are two designs you can order. Either the pure Racing version with just a pipe from cat to rear muffler, or the "street legal" version, which I have, where you have an additinal muffler between the cat and the rear muffler (you can see it as the wider tube thingy in the pictures)
For the intake... this is a grey area. Technically every RAM or "fresh Air" (the open intakes with no box around) are not legal over here, again, because of the noise. Rarely you can get some approved, but this costs quiet alot of $$$. Anything that is based on a "drop in filter" design -should- be ok. Still, I'd be much more safe if I had a certificate from toyota switzerland saying this is an original Toyota part.

Thank you for the kind words

I think the xxrs fit the twis very well, especially the wide/offset of the wheels is like made for our cars. However on a black car I would either take gold or silver wheels so they stick out a bit.

Not sure where in the US you can get them, however I remember JoeBoxer in this forum selling them, and he has a very good reputation as a seller in here
