Can anyone tell me the aftermarket parts for direct replacement for stock FD layout? Like for engine part, radiator, intake hard pipe, engine hard pipe, Air Separator Tank, change those black stock hoses to hard pipe hoses, RE Amemiya boost gauge behind the steering, etc....

With Brand names or even a link of the actual parts will be appreciated.

I personally only want to mod my FD with direct replacement aftermarket parts....


Thanks!!!

 

Nardi steering wheel is a nice OEM upgrade

 

Thanks, let me check that out, any other parts in the engine compartment, hoses, intake hard pipe, etc? i know GReedy and other brands do have some hard pipes for stock direct replacement, but need to know the part name and models.....

 

Sounds like quite a compilation....it'd be a nice find if such a list exists or if someone is willing to compile one

 

You didn't say what the goal was for these upgrades. Either reliability mods or for performance. I'm very new to this scene but here are a few ideas that I think are direct replacements. No links and of course I might be wrong
99 spec turbos
BNR turbos
I think there are a few stock mount intercoolers. Greddy maybe?
Larger injectors
Most rads I think
Better flowing exhaust, down pipe gets rid of the pre cat if you have a north american FD.
Power fc
Most of these mods are performance based with a couple touching on reliability.
There is a FAQ list in the FD forum that goes over many reliability mods.

What direction do you want to take the car? More performance? Sequential turbos, non sequential, or just better reliability?

You have several different directions to choose. Perhaps if you outlined your long term goals you might get help that's applicable to your wants.

 

if you are looking for the direct replacement hard pipes for the IC, i have them for sale. both the GReddy and HKS sets.

shawn

 

.........you should also get yourself the Efini hard cross over pipe and greddy elbow

 

IF I get the FC engine going,with my IC I will have an FD greddy Elbow with a Flange for a Greddy BOV welded onto the elbow,For sale.,(workin out bugs on my engine as we speak).
Pm me if that is 'along you Lines of Mods".I'll give ya first Crack at it,before I post to get rid of All these Damn parts I accumulated!

 

Thanks for your suggestion, i want the FD more reliable more than performance. I would like to keep my FD in sequential turbos.... I got the HKS downpipe, RE Air Separator Tank, Samco Radiator hoses only. Is Samco Turbo Hose necessary?

Maybe upgrade the stock IC and radiator to another brand, but need to know some brand(s) and model # or whatever that will fit stock fitment for the FD.

I also want the intake hard pipe, but the intake i want to remain to the stock intake box. Any suggestion to the intake hard pipe brands / model?


Thanks!

 

may not be much of a contribution,but look at www.fighters-garage.com
they have a air Intake sensor(they call it a FRAITS) that is better than stock and doesn't Heat soak,like the stock one does.also all sorts of Nifty Stuff,like Pressuretesters for Vacuum/boost leaks.

 

If you want to keep your stock intake box there is a free mod you can do. It involves putting several small holes in it. Since they are on the under side it allowed more air.
Do a search, it should come up.

 

Are Samco Turbo Hoses necessary? Also, do HKS have direct replacement for intake hard pipe while keeping the intake box stock?
