looks ok

old s13, check your email, I have a question thanks

old_s13 · 07-09-2004, 09:06 AM

your motor STILL looks like doo, Mike. That's okay though.. once the package is complete, it'll be better.

yer telling me, the only thing i like about the new motor setup is that its all low key and empty. everything will be black, i have no interest in showing off my engine bay anymore. socal sucks and the last thing i want is to do all this work and get slammed by some asshole cop (although, not all cops are assholes)

an89>Hey whats up, I seen your post, and you had an intake pipe that you were showing, I am wondering, how did you make that blue pipeing that connected to the maf?? Also what size was it? I am doing a ka24et, and I need to make that pipe. Do you happen to still have it by any chance? get back to me please thanks

i dont have that silly pipe anymore, i trashed it. i had some buddy make it at a muffler shop back in the day.. its just crap crush bent exhaust piping.. no science to it. then i had it powdercoated and it looked nicer, big stink. if you're going KA24ET then you'll obviously have a lot of piping work to do.. better make connections with a good welder and just make all your pipes.

good luck,
- mike

HomeDepot Motorsports rocks. What the hell is so cool about your JDM aero if it cracks every time you go off track? HDM just bends! Does it serve an aerodynamic purpose? Of course not.

I don't care if you don't like it. And its not garden divider, its wall base liner! hahhhaha

yeah. black s14's are the only ones that can really pull off home depot body trim i guess.....

The garden trim may not be pretty, but it can be effective as long as you brace it properly.

Shin_Kudo · 07-09-2004, 02:26 PM

Garden trim is pretty badass on an AE86. Doesn't look right on an 180SX front, though. Not sure how it'd look on a S13 Silvia.

s13dan · 07-09-2004, 02:48 PM

I think it looks ok but needs to be smoother.... maybe on a 89-90 bumper... i was ganna do somthing like that to my car cuz i cant find a stock lip anywhere.. but its your car so i like that you did what you want to it

BSeay · 07-09-2004, 02:56 PM
