well i finally got some of my parts in. the holidays really slowed down all the parts coming in. i cant wait to get this stuff installed. some of it is going in on saturday heres a pic of the parts that have came in so far.



in the pic is

fujitsubo exhaust
helix test pipes
pro-1 y-pipe
hotchkis tvs springs/sways
h&r wheels spacers (15mm front/20mm rear)

saturday i am doing all of the exhaust and the suspension stuff (test pipes, ypipe, fujit exhaust, springs, sways).... and maybe the shift **** tomorrow if i get time. me and another local guy will be doing the installs. if i had my own garage i would do it all myself. its nice to have more than one set of hands doing the work too.

still waiting on my pop charger, motordyne spacer, 3.9fd, and then ordering a utec to tune.

sweet. just make sure you have everything you need for the install so you don't get caught halfway through and end up having the put the stock stuff back on (i.e. spring compressor-not really necessary but makes things easier, all the right nuts and bolts, torque wrench, etc.)

That picture is so beautiful... I would have loved to install all of my mods at the same time... Your car is going to go from stock (I assume?) to more-than-mildly modified..... let us know how everything works out

springs are a relatively simple install. didnt need compressors.

all of that was installed on saturday except for the wheel spacers which i think i am going to sell (just going to buy some volks or works - pm me if interested). i am taking the helix test pipes off because there is some rasp with the setup... but i will put some hf cats or resonated tp's in the next few weeks.

i just got my jwt pop-charger and my motordyne 5/16 isothermal spacer too. within the next few weeks i will be ordering utec, gears, and some other small stuff. then if i am not satisfied with NA, i will go vortech soon after.

Its just like the NISMO exhaust... quieter tone, different tips... doesnt include a y-pipe...

yeah a friend in AZ had it on his car for a few weeks and then decided to sell the car so i got lucky and got a good price for a barely used exhaust.

the test pipes were used too, but they are coming off tomorrow morning. cant stand the rasp
