The 'white elephant' SR20DET swap

[derrick113]

http://www.zeroyon.com/index/content/view/64/47 just a little guide, dunno you mightve already seen it, helped me out. Ne1 - 1000 Ne2-1200 (then 1000 increments from there) Might not go with what ppl say but works for me. Dec- 4 & 5. I have stock maf, so maybe the N60 is your prob like you said. But im in no way an safc pro and touching your car, thats your job haha

[Didderson]

Lol done deal. The guy who I bought the safc from knows how to use it more than I do. I'll give it a try on thursday my day off skewl! yeah i've seen that before, but this guy has his 2nd NE point at 3k. I'll give it a whirl.

[derrick113]

Really if you read up on it and just play around and get used to it and see what works best for your car you'll be fine. Even if its not safc throwin the idle off you can still fine tune it when you get it all worked out.

[White Comet]

Lol U can't hang w/ the lancaster swang!

now show everyone the hood!!

[ILoveMyRHS13]

The PR one? I'll take pictures of it later when I come over. We should have a photo shoot!

Show everyone the rims.

[White Comet]

lol the pr what? i already saw the rims (in the box though) but didnt only 2 arrive?

[Didderson]

Yeah WC, i paid 400 for 2 sportmaxes

Just kiddin, they shipped em in pairs. The other set arrived yesterday. This is the only good pic I have of them:

16x8" +-0As you can tell, I wish i could afford watanabe's but I like the offset of these and the price for a DD rim is what I'd be willing to spend.They look so much better in person I couldn't be happier. I've already found some tires to mount kekeke. I sold the old cavalier 17" rims for 250 yesterday so I will have them on the car by the end of the week if all goes well with tire shipping.

I can't find the digi cam, but I'll go look and take pics today since its FINALLY not raining!

[idahotuner]

nice wheels tom. i am ordering my wheels end of this month. after pay day. yahoo.

[White Comet]

yeah i saw at keegan's when they were in front of his house. i was like "wtf, just 2?"

[ILoveMyRHS13]

ZOMGPICZ

First, the PR hood.

Next the very very nice rims.Tom didn't have a $100 bill so he put a stack of $20s here for the "baller" pictureThe goodies.

[Didderson]

Thanks for the update Doug! I have tires lined up. for original fitment I'm doing 195/50/16s all around. If I deem I can use 205's then I'll jump on em. I got semi cheap tires lined up. 2 nankings (spell?) and 2 federal 535s? The nankings are about half used but they'll be a nice set to throw on the rear for 60bux mounted and see if i can break traction or what have you. They'll also make for good track tires I guess come carlisle because I won't care about getting sloppy w/ em.

As they arrive and get mounted I will post pics. Wheels and tires and sexy lug nuts should all be on by saturday this weekend. Hopefully friday so I can roll up to the sonic meet w/ em.Yeah I still don't know where the digi cam is.

Small non pic update, greeneyes helped me put my 10" sub back in after I bought an amp from his friend @ cc for a nice bargain. I weel take pics soon I guess or maybe have doug do the honors if I can't find the camera lol.

Oh yes and I fixed the idle. It was the mini TB return blocker screw. Zilvia hooked me up seeing as they have more members w/ sr's and sh1t, it was suggested, and it worked perfectly I should get a vid of it running...

You may notice the hood is a bit discolored. I'm trying out new shades of gunmetal since the GM colors only came in a small can and they sux at smooth spray.

Poop phone pic update! Got the used tires mounted. Apparently they're nice tires. We will see about Nankangs. paid 60 mounted for the pair .

I love the stretch you know u do too .This is exactly how I wanted it. Just so u can look down the sidewall and see the lip! Ballin!

I have a bit of fitment work to do.

Old school rivet on fender flares comes to mind... but fender puller/ coils I'm also considering. It's a tough fit atm w/ stock camber, prokit/agx's and no coils .

Probably going w/ the flares because it would keep w/ the theme. I never thought I'd get to run em I didn't think 15mm would be crazy difference lol!

I have a feeling we'll be seeing a lot of these rims on nico in the future. +1 first?

Plans for the centercaps, I don't like em chrome. I'm repainting them gloss black to make the red lugs POP. It will still say xxr w/ the sportmax symbol w/e in the offset paint which will be nice.

What does nico think? I'm diggin the wider stance. +1 for grip driving which is what i'm going for.

things to think about: color of the flares, black or body colored? Me n greeneyes are leaning toward black atm.

Mudflap valances, black or body colored? thanks in advance.

[idahotuner]

dude nice update love the actually pics of the tires. seem like they fit the theme great OLD SKEWL FTW haha. huge staggered lip is sweet. i just liek lower pro tires. but i told you everythign on aim. but looking great man.... oh yeah. thanks for the help on my build.

[White Comet]

you better get flares and they better be black . seriously i think it would look pretty mean with flares and mudflap valences regardless of color. i'll have to check these wheels out in person

[JRPS13]

nice wheels!just wondering what size tires u slap on them?

[Didderson]

Woops I'm sorry I never said. I decided to run a 195/50/16 because of teddy's car in the wheel fitment thread. Thx ted .

[idahotuner]

your car isnt lowered huh. maybe that is the difference between the looks. i liek the stance of his.

[ILoveMyRHS13]

Nice, Tom! That stretch looks awesome! But yes, black fender flares and gray mudflaps. But, please, please don't go too crazy on the flares.

Find anyone to work for you saturday? We need to cruise with all the others!

[Didderson]

Oh yeah doug I look forward to making the subaru boys' penises shrink when they see a faster car then theirs on saturday. bwahaha fanbois. I don't think i'll be able to get someone to work for me tho so i'll be there till 3.

Black flare/grey flaps sounds like a plan guys.

Uh idaho, the car has eibach prokit and kyb agx adjustable struts. Came w/ the car when i bought it. Really the only thing worth the 1300 since the KA ran like crap until i rebuilt it, but with the wiring problems it had, no wonder it ran like poo.

but yes, my car is so lightweight (weight savings whore) that it sits even higher than eibach designed i guess. It usually looks pretty low, maybe it was cuz the ebrake was on when it was let down off the jack and it didnt settle as much. The flares will help w/ that type of fitment too. I don't want to go too low man, I already scrape the exhaust on stuff and I've chipped paint a quarter size out of my lip from curbs around here.

[idahotuner]

i see. i didnt realize that you had that stuff on the car lol. get PBMS lol JP haha cant wait to get mine i am excited.

hey for the subie emblems d othey stay together when you pull them off. cause i want to hang one from my tow hook

[Didderson]

ya they do and once i up my boost i'll be doin the same heh.

yeah i want coils, but that's not on budget right now, so i'll wait till a strut blows.

[derrick113]

nankangs i had a set way back when, not terrible but def nothing great.

lookin good man, almost spring finally!

[White Comet]

good stuff. is this sat the tst meet at sonics already?

oh im hooking up my avcr shortly so i'll pass the mbc ur way

[tramp_drift240]

new sportmax steez, i saw those randomly pop up on ebay and didnt know what they were. looks pretty dope though, and i like the stretch.

yes. time for coils. find a deal somewhere online, sometimes people are really trying to get rid of 'em.

[White Comet]

^ dont listen to him.

i know tom knows better then to find used coils and ****. when he gets coils he'll probably go pbm but i know he loves jic as well

[tramp_drift240]

hey man. theres nothing wrong with used coils.

i think.

ive never had any, i just know its a cheaper alternative.
