Are they really? Hmmm..... Wonder why this one is sitting on the underside of the car then and wasn't when I just had the KA in it. I was thinking that maybe the SR downpipes were a bit longer.

AE92blackout, I'd love to get rid of these rims but I'd need another set... Keep inmind these tires have less than 500miles on them.

 

I remember somebody somewhere asking to see pictures of the engine bay, so here ya go:

Intercooler neatly tucked behind metal bumper & bumper cover (intercooler piping is in the way of my foglights).


Here's a quick tip I'll pass onto ya'll who are going to polish your headlights. I've used the 3M kits with all the different pads and cleaners and this works just aswell. It's Mother's Mad & Aluminum Polish that I always seem to have around. I normally just polish (in small circles) for about 5minutes on the headlight and hand buff it away and it turns out great. Especially since you can have this can around for years and have multiple purposes.

I'd love to have the amber front bumper lights & corner lights. Do they sell those, or are ya'll just painting them with amber/yellow stained glass paint?

 

Car looks good.

 

relocate the battery to the trunk, it will give you more space and look better. And my megan test pipe sucked fittment wise too, try another brand. Other than that, looks really good. props.

 

Be careful with where you put your air filter in the bumper. It may work a lot better, but if its raining and your MAFS gets wet your going to be in trouble. Try running ducting that leads to the filter in the stock position.

 

uh leave it under the hood. even ducting has its issues.

 

Today I finally got around to installing a handful of goodies to keep my engine safe.

Greddy (knock-off) baffled oil pan
S14 oil strainer
Oil strainer gasket
Oil change

I was hesitant to purchase one of the knock-off oil pans because of the horror stories I've heard about them in the past. Anyways I did it, cost me $79.00 shipped. I'm almost happy to say it installed fine without any major issues! Just had to grind about 1/4" off one side so that the oil baffle would fit. Also went with the S14 strainer for increased oil flow and it's braced better.

 

Randomly someone walked up to my lastnight at a local car meet telling me they had some parts for sale... I walked away with a S14 LSD w/ complete housing for $70 and a Z32 MAF with pigtail for $60

I installed the LSD today and I love it! It's like having a real rear wheel drive car haha. Not sure what I'm gonna do with the MAF yet. What are the advantages of it? I don't really plan to make big horsepower anytime soon.

 

Should've grabbed the moroso one (stainless steel). Cast aluminum oil pans scare me...

 

I got offered $7,000 for this car today, debating on selling it...
