If you are using the JDM bumper support, its going to be tough.

can you use a SR hot or cold pipe on a FMIC for a CA18? would either of these work?

s14 SR kit fits fine right out of the box. or you can use an s13 SR kit, and cut the cold pipe to make it fit. also, if you get an s13 SR kit with the coldpipe for the greddy manifold it seems like that should work well too... its roughly in the same place as our stock manifold (But i've never seen anyone do this, its just me theorizing )
