    damn that looks awesome.

    post more pics when you get the heatshield finished! That krinkle finish makes the engine bay much more 'modern' (i coulnt find the right word....)

      looks great, you really do things right the first time. I guess the mount bracket is custom as well?

          My car has sealed beams from the factory. Sealed beam plastic covers do not fit euro elliips. Lets more air in without them anyways.

          Anything worth doing is worth doing custom :) Yes it is.

              yes they do, at least on my car, I have them on right now, my car had sealed beams from the factory, not it has euro ellips, meh, it definately fits without problems. w/e though... i'd try again if you want to use them, but i agree more air would flow with out them.

                hehehe, I'm trying... :P
                I wasn't making trouble. Just to clarify (if you didn't get it yet) FURACE is my of saying full race (black wheels, pointless weight reduction, etc).

                I sympathize with people who have a hard enough time with the english language, without having to deal with slang :P

                  what sucks is that damn abs module thats stuck right there in the way of everything good ;) nice way of resourcing the space. I dont know if my filter will sit above there with the m30 afm, I believe its just a touch too big, even with the hood liner removed. So your auto parts store has mandrel bends in stock huh? Ive been trying to get my boss to stock the things since everyone has had the turbo rash lately.

                    Looks nice. That is a larger cone than most people normally run.

                    Did you spray paint your ABS fluid resevoir tank silver??

                      Glad to see that adapter I gave is working out, because I wasn't going to use it. Looks like there was at least one good part on that car. :D
