ca18det fmic kit

Post by **drifting circles** » Mon Jul 28, 2008 8:45 am

So i order a fmic kit from this place called fatboy garagesports on ebay. I cut my holes for the piping and the **** doesnt even come close to fitting. My cold pipe forsure doesnt fit close to the throttle body. looks like it sits perfect for a sr20. So i just want to say is **** FATBOY Garage. Worthless pieces of ****. didnt send me brackets nor did they send me the right silcone couplers.

Ebay dude...you didn't actually think it was going to work did you?

Did you give them a chance to correct the situation? If not try. It might be an honest mix up and they sent you the wrong one. The name of the vendor and the medium on which they sell their wares does not inspire confidence but be sure they purposefully screwed you before calling foul.If they have in fact engaged in shady business with you please provide the email traffic so we can make sure the rest of the membership is aware and we can make sure no more Nico member's money lines their pockets.

Yea I knew it. I'm stupid for letting myself order off ebay. yes it is... Where the hell do i find a good source to order a fmic from?? I know people say the s14 kits fit.

When I had a FMIC it was an S14 kit and it fit pretty decent. You should be able to get the cold pipe cut and coupled together to fit though....

i found the hybrid gt spec kit. I have wanted this kit and couldn't ever find one.

Autobahn88 piping kit looks like it'll fit nicely. Mine just arrived today, I'll let you guys know once I install it.

Post by **drifting circles** » Tue Jul 29, 2008 7:22 pm

SSAutochrome.com kit for the S14 SR20. Close to fit but since I wanted to keep the factory windshield wiper water tank the cold pipe had to be cut, rotated and rewelded. Otherwise I guess it should fit fine.

Good luck.

That piping looks exactly like the Autobahn88 setup, except my pipes are in 4 pieces instead of 2.

uhhh hehe ill give a stupid answer...

well if you had a CA in your S14 then technically yea the S14 fmic bolts up to the CA....

but if you meant does the KA24DE fmic bolt up to the CA then not really...it sorta does you just need to mod the end of the cold pipe a lil...atleast with the Greddy IC

I was reading it as the s14 sr20det fmic kit works with a ca18det in a s13. My frind has a s14 sr in is s13 and the intake plenum sits about the same spot as a ca so thats what made me think that

Post by **sjbsuperman1425** » Fri Aug 01, 2008 7:06 am

this is what i've been reading people using so i thought what the hell! it was $199 shipped with a 1 year warranty. Bar and Plate style.

Post by **anumeric** » Fri Aug 01, 2008 1:20 pm

My s14 SSAC kit fit pretty well actually no cutting or anything. Just had to buy a couple of different silicone reducers since 2 of the ones that came with the kit were the wrong size.

hope these pics help out a bit.

how should i mount my battery? i can't really move it over anymore and i dont think it will fit like our friend "Cams" here. I have a Meijer ProCell battery that works good, but idk if it will fit and i dont want to buy a new one lol any help BESIDES relocation to the trunk?

Post by **Cams** » Mon Aug 04, 2008 6:56 pm

unfortunately, unless you have custom cold pipe that doesn't have to go thru your Battery tray, you will need to buy small sized battery or relocate it to your trunk. Look for pictures of Gaby's (car) engine bay and you would see a setup with a standard sized battery.

Honda Civic battery work? i can get one from a friend for $20 lol
