Smile Well she is done (for a little bit I mean)

Well after 2 week of installing the new tranny, clutch, suspension, the FMIC, rad, MP, oil filter relocation kit, EBC and ECU she is done for a little bit. I think the motor department is done because my butt dyno is saying damn she's fast. I haven't gotten to a dyno yet but I need to go so I can see if I can run safely to the 14 psi the ECU is tuned for. I'm just taking it easy on her at 10-11 psi. That's good enough for me. well here are a few pic of her for me to share with you. Thanks to all those that helped me with the questions I had in the process.




Now go into the for sale section and buy all the junk I don't need

Are you saying that you are going to keep using fram filters, or that you're going to wait til after the relocation to change the filter?

BTW, looks great

very nice man.

What relocation kit is that?

You have done nice work. And alot of it too. That is quite a list of accomplishments you have there. What is the next step for it? besides the dyno as you said.

How do you like the spec 6 puck clutch. is that a sprung hub? can't remember

I'm keeping the fram because that's the only type of filter I find for the kit. I think some people don't like the oil filter relocation or at least where is at.

Is a summit racing one. Well if getting trasffer to El Centro in Ca. is not going to make me sell the car then may be a 20b is on my future. If not a GT40R is but for now she makes me more than happy. But before that I need some tires. Since getting good tires for the stock rims is about the same preice for 17-18's then I'm going to buy some rims.

I love the Spec clutch is easy on your foot too since is a sprung hub.

Thanks for the coments

I would keep looking since last I checked fram filters don't have anti-backflow valves.

so wait a few minutes before removing the filter. it is not that big of a deal. a inconvenience but not a big deal. C'mon man your not Jiffy lube. and you know you love looking at the engine bay anyways. so just sit back and admire it for a few minutes and then your good to go.

I got a list off all the filter that equivalent but the local auto store didn't have any other and I was kinda in a hurry if you read the other thread about the oilf filter relocation, you will know why.
