Clean, nice car man... I hate to say it but your IC piping looks quite.... rigged?

Nice job anyway, you get 2 points.

swap looks excellent. you should relocate that battery though.. I'll bet that's on the to-do list already. :p

imho that swap needs lots o love, not how i would have done it but thats me.also is your wastegate dumping right next to the brakemaster, if it is you need to move that isht out of the engine bay ASAP!its not good for the engine's health and causes massive power loss, trust me on this one thats how i had mine for about 2 weeks and when i fixed it it was a whole new car.

although the wastegate dump straight to the brake MC....that can easily start a fire.

Hey man your car looks nice, and the swap looks good even with those minor issues ^^. That was at the Oxnard meet right? It looks familiar I went last year when I lived in LA.

What are your impressions of the blow-thru MAF setup so far, and do you have a bov upstream somewhere? Also, what IC are you rockin, a same-side in/out fmic?

I am surprised that the strut tower bar fits, I thought the intake manifold would kill it for sure.

Looks nice man can't wait to get mine that far along

Edit: Time to update your sig!

hey thanks for the compliments. yea that was the oxnard meet. we had 200 cars show up, it was sick!the blow thru maf has been working well so far, and my blowoff valve is on my hotpipe. as far as my intercooler i have a regular 1 end on each side. 24x12x3 and for the tower bar i put a couple of spacers on it plus i fab my own mounts to make the engine sit lower.

sig will be updated soon!!!

hey mello i have the same dent but on the driverside.

Very nice, indeed! Red hatches are the best!

If you don't mind me asking, what did you do for the intercooler? I'm planning an RB25 swap myself and need some help on the intercooler part.
