They were jdm ssr viennas. I really would like to get it to the alignment shop end of next week... I have all the important hard to get peices already so it really all on me to just put it back tohether ..
Let me know where you get your alignment done. I've been rejected from just about every place since the car has been lowered.sterlingae;1903907 said:
So I just ordered a mechanical boost gauge and water temp gauge from prosport and I got a pillar pod any advice for what other parts I'm going to need for the install extensions or what? All advise would be greatly appreciated.

Depends on what the guages come with. most of them usually come with the hoses and wiring so an extension is going to depend on where your planning on tapping for your power source.NicMK3;1904051 said:
Thanks Miguel, and also im looking for for a bolt on cold air system all I have found is the weapon r intake system. Seems legit. Anyone have any advice, I want somthing that has max air flow since I've got full three inch elbow, down pipe and 3 inch all the way back and my motor is having a full proformance rebuild internally and I got a new 57 trim ct26. So I'm looking for a good proformance intake system that works well and fits with out modding .

It's been said by many on here, and argued by many as well... stock air box with K&N drop in filter is the best cold air intake out there. It doesn't intake air from under the hood.
Oh, check this out. http://sanantonioimports.com/showthread.php?t=29673
It's a cruise hosted by some local Z club guys that's open invite to all. Although they prefer it only be Z cars. If any of you are interested I guess show up. No need to "register" on there forum. There might be a slim chance I might go. It's a nice cruise through Twisted Sisters route. http://www.motorcycleroads.com/75/5...wisted-Sisters)--Ranch-Roads-335-336337a.html
Looks like a good ride.

The CAI from Weapon R is a 2 piece design unlike like all the other short ram air intakes out there. It comes out of the opening from where the stock airbox sucks air from and gets routed basically under your headlight; a nice piece but pricey. I never thought of going that route since the air gets heated anyway when it travels through the turbo therefore undoing any good the cold air intake might have done. In my opinion, a good intercooler and an intercooler hardpiping kit would yield better results in lowering intake temps than a cold air intake. The biggest airflow restriction in the intake system is still going to be the AFM but unless your switching over to speed density there's not much you can do about that.
Neat. Didn't know there was such a CAI that sucked air from the stock location. I second the upgraded intercooler and hardpipes mod.
BTW guys, it looks like the Z club guys have cancelled their "Twisted Sisters" cruise. They won't be doing it. I might just do it myself, and take my brother with me. I just don't know when I'm going out there. Might be on a Sunday.

It's taking more time than i expected but the car is really close to moving on its own power. I would like to atleast move it this weekend and im hoping to get it in the alignment shop sometime next week.
Yea I did more research and it seems to be a pos and a waste of money I just got all new aluminium intercooler piping and aluminium hard pipe

I spotted a dark grey primered S13 with missing bumper and large front mount intercooler on Babcock & 1604 around 11:35am today. Made me think of your swap sterlingae. Keep chipping away and you'll get it done.
Ya there are a few nice s13's in that area. I can't really put a name on the car without seeing it but I know most of the guys in sa.
Gonna get off my lazy ass tomorrow and clean the garage so that I can pull the old supra in. Time to get wrenching.
Good deal Michael. BTW guys, I bought some Hankook Ventus V12 evo K110 tires for only $80.52/ea from onlinetires.com. That's the cheapest I've seen these tires. Just giving you guys a heads up.
I went to the dragstrip tonight. My first run I posted my best time of 12.91@108.88mph. I backed it up with another 12.93@108.54. Both times a ran a 2.1 sixty on Nitto DR's. I suck. I need to learn how to drive this damn car. I got eliminated by a 2dr Civic running 12.20's. All in all, I had fun.
