zip is 60014. Also, Pics are always a good thing! Now, I think you've said it before, but are you in Japan on business or are you in the military, just out of morbid curiosity?

That's cool. So, do you plan on bringing the car back stateside with you when you return, or just the engine?

There is a guy in England that has a GT42 and an FD Manual box, he broke 2 auto Cosmo gearboxes so he went manual, seems to be taking the power so far but h wont drag race it much.

yeah from what I hear the cosmo auto is good to about 425 450. Im planning on a FD 5 speed swap. and changing out the stock twins for a GT4088. Im looking for 450 - 500 hp but spool fast. should spool like a to4e does on 13b.

Wouldnt you just use an FD tranny. People must be able to use those. Is there a way to build an FD tranny if its not strong enough?

DAMN! $680 for a CAI? I mean c'mon...


Also, 87GTR, please don't forget about the wheel info! Though I should probably be focused on my 12-14mpg problem first... I mean as long as the car LOOKS cool, who cares? Right?

The high quality Auto-Exe unit. They quote near 10hp gains for that set-up. Easily the best air pod filter for a Cosmo.

That price is a killer though...............

my car is a 20b and 5 speed using a S6 RX7 gear box.
the gear box takes the power easy, it was previously in a supercharge PP20B drag car and its still in one peice.
