Finally!! Been looking for my ITB's for over a week. Thought I had it packed away in a box so I have literally gone through every parts box maybe 3 times.
Come to find out I mislabeled a part bundle. Walked by and glanced at it 3-4 times till I noticed I put a "?" On the nomenclature, opened it up and turned out to be it hiding in plain sight -_-










got some new hoses to replace the old ones. But seems I have missed one -_-





OEM has some weird clamps on one side for some reason. would make it much easier to remove the collector with a regular pinch clamp so ill be using those





Now to wait on the collector to get back from my buddy welding the Additional Injector ports on it.

Thanks man, looks like you did it just in time to. Lol

Not sure what I'm gonna do about this.

Probably use another host for now but I'll have to be extremely bored to fix all the previous photos or wait to see what photobucket does.

Finally got around to installing the Rear brembos.

Probably gonna look into finding a BCNR33 brake master cylinder as the pedal feel is a bit softer than what I prefer. Still stops amazingly though.

Current setup is great, has a smooth initial bite, no noise. only thing I wanna do next is install the R33 BMC as the pedal is a bit soft on the top end.

So tired of dealing with HID's so decided to try some LED Headlights.





Im liking these a bit better as far as fitment goes, everything plugs right in with no modding.

Set up comparison



Left side HID Right Side LED





Installed







to late to wake up the neighbors so have to go for a drive tomorrow night.

But looking good thus far, and i have High Beams again!

Still havent driven on them but seem pretty good, cant be any worse than the HID's.

Also noticed the bulbs can swivle in the housing to further adjust the cut off.

Maybe a dumb question but are the Skyline low beams H3C like the Silvia's? Every low beam LED bulb I've gotten has been a dim fog light bulb lol. LED's are the shit though

Depends on the year, pre 91 headlights use H3C, post 91 use H1.

If your bulbs you are using dont have a ballast box then they are probably gonna suck

These were painless. Fully PNP no modding required.

What's the current exhaust on the car? Any drone?
