Anyone have the part number for the threaded SAI fitting that screws into the front of the exhaust manifolds? Or know where to get them? I'm not finding anything with Google.
I have a set of stainless steel headers that do not have the SAI ports. I want to install the headers but don't want...
Thanks guys. These do sound good. I just got some Corsa Pro Series mufflers delivered. I'm gonna throw them on and see how it sounds. Maybe the Corsas or Spintechs will be here next.
I'd be concerned about more of that plastic stuck to the screen on your oil pickup tube, hindering flow.
Edit: You probably dropped the pan already, since it looks like those pieces wouldn't make it through the drain hole. But just double check the pickup tube screen. I had plastic chunks...
I wet sanded and polished them. It was starting to get dark by the time I got them on. Here are some pics. They don't look too bad, but I'll have to see them in the bright sunlight to really evaluate them. Need a little polish touch up in a few spots too. But here are some new pics, I still...
lol, we'll see how they look when they're done. letting the 2k cure now, wet sanding and polishing tonight. definitely look like shit right out of the box. might still look like shit when done. probably should have just returned them, but i do like the led "rings" or whatever you call them...
I ended up wet sanding before the 2k clear, there were some imperfections I saw in the bright sun light. I think [hope] they will look good, the sanding lightened them up a bit, which I'm happy about, but the shape makes them a pain to sand. I'll post some more pics after I wet sand and final...
Ok I got the Raxiom tails and have mixed feelings. They're not smoked at all. I like the LED running lights at night. But it kinda looks like the 1960s batmobile during the day, and not in a good way.
So I decided to VHT Nightshade them and use 2k clear coat on top. I initially put 3 coats...
So I ordered everything but the headlights and corners. I can't decide on clear or smoked lenses. Just trying to have a clean/subdued/slightly more aggressive look. Not changing the fog light housings (unfortunately doesn't look like anything is available). Car is black, which would you...
Yeah, I don't like the look of any HID/1 piece headlights I've seen. So cheap-ass ebay housings it is, and I'll spend a little more for good bulbs. Where did you get the LED 3rd? I can't find one anywhere.
The turn signal set up comes with the relay to stop the hyperflash so I should be all...
Does anyone have full exterior LED lighting (headlights, turn signals, tail lights) that could post some pictures? Also your thoughts as to if it's worth the change cost-wise and your experience specifically with headlight brightness.
I'm about to order new headlights (clear with black...
MIL eliminators. I can't remember where I bought mine, but they work well. Just Google it; there are a few places that sell them. Here's some on ebay. I agree with turning them off with a tune if you can find someone to do it...
I think it looks great. Has a nice slightly raked look. But I understand being disappointed if it didn't provide the drop/look you were expecting. Did you happen to measure before/after?
Also, I'm curious what your side to side ride height difference is in the rear. Maybe these cars are...
Thanks, yeah I like these wheels a lot. They seem very light weight too, for the size.
I called tirerack, where I got the springs from, and they confirmed they're the correct springs. The way H&R uses part numbers is weird I guess. But, I installed them and really like them so far. Not as...
Still dealing with this issue. I put about 115 miles on the car, rear driver side is about 1/2 to 3/8 lower than passenger rear. I'm measuring from the edge of the wheel/bead (not the tire) to the bottom of the 1/4 panel. I realize there can be some tolerances between sides just from...
I second this. What about suspension and handling mods? It's a night and day difference with good shocks, struts, lowering springs vs stock. The parts don't cost a fortune and you can install yourself. Especially if it's going to be a street duty summer car that gets driven. 4.30 gears and...
Figured I'd update in case anyone reads this in the future. I called Maximum Motorsports and their customer service was great. I believe it was Mike I spoke to, he explained a lot of things to me.
He said it's not abnormal for the control arms to not line up perfectly with the axle mounts. So...
