I just compression tested my KA, 155 psi on all 4 cylinders, and leakdown test only put a bigger smile on my face. My brother forgot that he left the compression tester adapter in the hole and tried to thread in the spark plug, so that seems to be the only thing in our way now. This thread is just a heads up really, lol.

T25 with intake and outlet pipes (excellent condition and no shaft play)JGS complete oil kit (brand new in package)ATP bolts, nuts and studs for turbo and oil lines. (new and never used)SSAC/XS Power T2 bottom mount manifold (new and never used)SSAC/XS Power T25 Elbow (new and never used)SSAC/XS Power downpipe (new and never used)SAFC II (new and never used)AEM Wideband O2 and AFR gauge (new and never used)Deuschworks 370cc sidefeed injectors (new, flow tested, and ready for installation)Walboro 255 lph fuel pump (new and never used)Stock SR smic, piping, and bov (excellent condition)

As for suspension and such, I just Installed:Hawk HPS PadsBrembo drilled and slotted rotorsMegan Racing SpringsSPL LCA and balljointsKoni Yellows

My S15 HLSD is on its way along with these ( to be fitted with Kumho MX):



I'm sure I forgot a few things here and there, but I'll be sure to make my own thread later on with lots of pictures. BTW, I don't think I will spend more than 6k on this car alltogether, lol.

I was thinking about them actually, and using Epoxy to attach the DSM BOV to the coldpipe near the throttle body.

If you guys are lucky, I might do an SAFC-II DIY install, lol. I'm sure some of you guys would LOVE that.

what clutch and exhaust are you running or going to run? stock clutch likes to give up pretty easy. I just put in my clutchmaster stage 5 (260$ shipped) and it's great. Really streetable and that's coming from a person who lives in San Francisco.

I already put in the ACT 6 puck unsprung hub. I've been using it for several months now and it grabs like a champ. I've been used to driving with unsprung clutches for a few years now, so I'm used to it. As for exhaust, I'm keeping it stock if i can break the bolts free. I'm starting this project with the T25 on stock boost, so I won't have any issues. Eventually I'll get a manual boost controller, but by then I'll also invest in a differant exhaust. Either the 3 inch Ebay cat back systems for cheap, or I'll just buy a Flowmaster muffler and bend my own piping. My buddy just bought a mandrel pipe bender...SWEET!

Will do. Either that or a new thread here. I will make a new thread once I am finished. I just need to cross my fingers. A piece of poclean may or may not have fallen into my first cylinder. I used my boroscope to look around, but don't see ANYTHING. So if everything goes well, I will begin this weekend. My sr smic should also arrive this Friday. Fingers crossed!

I just got a whole buttload of suspension, brake, and drivetrain goodies. I haven't installed it in my car because I don't feel like having to remove everything the next day after someone is interested in it.

That, and I'm sure if I install it now, it's not comming out for a few months because I'll utterly LOVE the T25 and s15 hlsd working together to PLANT me in my seat, lol. If I don't get any bites for the kit......I guess I will try it out for a bit.

I think I'm going to try to sell this setup, and set up a budget boost project. FMU and welding my own downpipe etc FTW.

It is RICICULOUSLY F***'n hard to have EVERYTHING I absolutely need just in a neat pile right neaxt to my bed and in my closet.

Tryign to resist temptation --->
