Is it going back on? It looks like there's plenty of room for it now that everything is installed.

doesn't look like the driver side hose can fit.

Awesome job on the car!!!! It would be exciting to see some video.

A/C didnt work anyways. You guy need to remember, this isnt my daily driver! When i get in this baby i am rolling down the windows and feeling the breeze. (and i live in Wisconsin, it gets hot but not for all that long)

You could gut your instrument clusters seatbelt light/door ajar lights and put one of the guages in there. I did that for my trans. temp guage and it worked very well. BTW very nice work, Did that have a 5mt or AT?

I love your setup so much, i cant wait to try and start my project once i have some time and money. How cold of a sprak plug did you go with, and have you had any cooling problems with the stock setup?

Thanks a lot! It sounds pretty wickid at this point running an open downpipe. I cant really compare the sound of it to any cars. Its like a supra, only deeper(so not like a supra at the same time lol)

I will probably see if i can do this as well, however for now im sick of taking apart my car lol. was there sufficent room behind both sides for this? I didnt take it apart far enough to look.

Thanks a lot. I went with BKR7EIX plugs, one heat range colder, iriduim strap and iridium ground. So far the cars temp guage has not moved, even on beat runs. I have a 10k mile radiator and hoses on the car, so the cooling system is fairly new.

Time for a PWR/Silicon hose upgrade!!! nuthing like a bullet proof cooling system. Only reason I did this is because I was really fond of exploding radiators and coolant lines Definatley worth the $550 for some serious piece of mind.
