Re-amemiya FMIC install instructions/pictures
Looking for the instructions, I can't read japanese but I can look at the pictures and I can't find it on their site.
any help or EXP dealing with it would be great, thanks.

If you are looking to purchase, use an importer:
www.aerodyne.net
If you have one already, I'd imagine some notching & cutting is necessary. The RE-amemiya nose is the same way.

From what I have seen the Amemiya FMIC is identical to the old style GReddy IC's. Smaller core and both the inlet/outlet pipes are run on the passenger side of the car.
You will need to cut part of the radiator support on the passender side for the pipes to pass through. The core is mounted right under the hood latch and will require some movement of that AFAIK. There are several other items which will need to be moved around in that area as well.
Do you have any pics of all the pieces so I can be sure I'm thinking of the correct thing?

The thought of trying to install that IC setup *with only the supplied parts* made me feel like a one-legged man in an ***-kicking contest. I'll keep looking for some proper documentation on this, but I think you're missing some stuff. Wasn't the larger red pipe in that pic missing too?

Kevin, It's the old greddy FMIC, HiGGI had the instructions for it, he's going to try to find them and post them.
Here is a picture of what is supposed to be in the kit.

Damn you are good I've been looking for a long time for this.... hehe.
BTW I ran out of gas in f'ing Radford because there were no open gas stations in a 50 mile radious. Luckily I ran out of gas *AT* a gas station that was closed so I took a two hour nap in sub-freezing weather, got gas and got the hell out of virginia. Over-all, i'd say it's about the shittiest 10hr drive of my life, other then the fact that i blew the doors off an infinity g35 on the DC beltway, that was actually pretty funny.

This greddy kit seems to mount differently then the amemiya kit. I think I'm going to pull that bumper off again, find a good spot to put the intercooler, see how close those pipes get, then go to a turbo shop and get them to fab the pipes that are missing. What a PITA this turned out to be. Oh well.

btw, Thanks for all your help, letting me use your shop, that damn coolant leak and the 9 billion broken bolts on everything. Not to mention putting me up for the night. Try getting that kinda service from any other shop, for FREE.
