Well the car has been under winter upgrades like and deletions, I was scared that the car would not start right up but it did....Had a little coolant leak but just tightened the strap and that fixed it..here are some of the stuff I did

Installed New license plate SNFUL7
SR Motorsports pulleys, I love this since they looks so cool
High Amperage polished Alternator From Rotary Shack...Works so good now I dont go below 13 volts even with my pulley
Polished fan relay bracke and alternator bracket from Rich
Rev t-stat housing from Japan
RE Speed polished Oil Filler neck
PS removal = Love this mod a lot of people are scared to do it but it aint a big deal...
Deleted the stock coolant reservoir and used Kinetik AST as a coolant reservoir
Installed polished JDM UIM, water pump housing, water pump and custom t-stat housing
Relocated the coils via Charlies7 coil relocation kit
Deleted the Windshield washer reservoir since I dont use it
Installed 5 Point harness
Chaged the filter from K&N to Greddy
Took the wing off = car looks better wingles now that it has a full kit than when it didnt
Some old school emblems which I like better...still have to hunt down some RE emblems..

Next winder mods will be

ABS removal
Custom vented hood = I was going to do this but got lazy...lol..
Custom ducting = still might do this before the winter
And who know what else...new engine with full fuel system and new tune...
Weight Reduction

Nice work

 

Thanks, can't wait to start nexte winters project...

 

You car is hot. But I like it better with the wing.

 

the greddy filter looks nice but it will break VERY easily w the heat. mine broke and damaged my turbo. b careful

 

Kai, I love the nut on the alternator. Where can I get one ?

 

Wow, that looks sharp, good work.

And I like it better without the wing.

 

I like the twin shark fins you are sporting now. Pretty sweet. What did you do/going to do with the wing?

Dave

 

the pulley looks sick

 

Thanks guys

I have used the Greddy filter in past cars and never had problems with them failing but I will check it occasionally to make sure it does'nt fail.

The Alternator nut is from SR Motorsports it was part of the pulley kit but I think it is very pricey if you buy it alone.

As for the wing I am just going through the wingless stage I will be keeping it to use next year, just had to take it out because believe it or not I feel the difference with it on and off.

 

Regarding the Greddy filter failing, that is over time and heat. Mine started to slowly come apart. I noticed it when I had the IC off and saw little crusty dried up pieces of what used to be foam in my IC piping. It had probably been on there for 5 years or so and did look quite nasty.

 

I do change the element every year so I don't think I will have to worry about that.

 

Your brake fluid is dirty Kai.

 

link for t-stat housing?

 

Looks great kai, 100x better wingless, although i am biased.

 

Check RHDJapan it is in the cooling section of the FD3S...it is made by REV if memory serves me right.

 

wing please.

but looks alot better under the hood now!!

 

wow! looking good Kai

 

sorry but i have to comment again... your car is off the chain! i love it. congrats on a bad *** ride.

 

Thanks guys, loving the car now just wished the rain would stop so I can drive...lol..

Now trying to see what else I would be doing next winter...hopefully my friend finishes building my motor...

 

Nice setup, is that an coolant overflow tank, looks like another AST?

The back trays look real sharp!

 

wow, looks great!
good job!

 

very nice car. Do you have some pics of the lenses mounting?

 

lovely looking engine bay!!!
