Pictures always make my car's paint look better than what it really is. But anyway, I love the KYB/Tein setup. Currently I have them set to their hardest setting. I noticed that the best settings are 3 in the front and 8 in the back. For some reason the front seems to grip better set on 3 rather than 4.

If I had to do suspension again (which I plan to do this summer) I would go with Tein Basic Damper Coilovers. I just bought Suspension Tech. sway bars the other night from Summit and I'll have them in before the 23rd so I'll probably write a little review on them aswell.

Oh, and the BRM exhaust is great. My only complaint is that it hangs somewhat low in the middle, but it doesn't scrape so I'm happy.

I have the AGX/S-techs too and love 'em. BTW is that a hood release cabe on your upper cross-support? Never seen one like that. Also did you re-wire in a ballast resistor to your ignition module? I see crimp terminals and that red 'thing'. What brand cold-air intake?

Lookin' good!

The cable and other parts are all there to keep bad people from having fun with my car....Now about the intake. I consider it an Injen Intake because it uses an Injen intake pipe that I cut with my dremel to use as an extension peice. when I bought the car the guy gave me a used Injen intake that he had not installed on the car. It was pretty bad looking so decided just to make my own intake set up.

Here's what I used:Ebay intake kit ($20+$20shipping)Free Injen intake pipeHeater hose to use for the valve cover vent($1)K&N Air Filter ($45)Dremel (everyone should have one of these)

So I took out the old plastic piping and put in the ebay intake kit, minus the nasty blue hoses they included with the kit for the valve cover vent and other hose that connects to the intake.. oh and the ebay filter). After getting that in I used the dremel to cut the Injen pipe a few inches before it bends. Remove the stock airbox and cut a 3'' hole where the airbox was, clamped everything up and WALLA! Cheap $95 dollar cold air intake that's as good as if not better than the Injen kit. It would have been cheaper if I didn't need to buy some cutting disk.

Wow, fooled me: looks very good. So just to clarify: the injen short was used from the throttle body, and the ebay one for the extension? Crafty!

Nope, other way around. I used the Injen pipe for the extension, it was used and didnt look too great. Here's another pic, and btw the K&N filter is right in front of the stock bumper scoop. I guess it wouldn't hurt to take some pics of the extension pipe out of the car and do a right up. I'm sure quite a few people wouldn't mind adding an extension pipe to their own set up.

The extension pipe is 2.75". So I bought a K&N filter with a 2.75" flange than used a hose clamp to secure it onto the pipe.
