I think a bottom mount TS is a great idea, wastegate placement is going to be interesting though. I think most feel comfortable in the $1200-$1500 range max. Simpler designs should be around $1000 ...

thats what I did. Pretty straight forward. Just don't use a crappy tap set like I did, they are good once. So if you only need it one time, then it will work just fine.
I've bought 2 OEM cables from the dealer and both were too mushy feeling. The lube inside them had dried up and required me to re-lube them. After that, they worked great.
Nah, I'm definitely keeping it USDM on the parts. I need to be able to replace these things every now and again, or at least find replacement parts quickly.

^^^ That is sorta what I am looking for. I have the 1999 headlights and bumper right now. But I am thinking the clear headlights instead of the black housing ones. But with the clear ones, I was go...

The tires sit nearly flush with the fenders. Spacing them out any farther would mean they would rub the fenders. If anything the track seems wider than before. The rear of the B14 shows that with s...
You can skim the head, that might do the trick. But check the piston quench clearance and valve clearance. I forget that the SR16 pistons are built a bit differently than the 2.0. But keep the 1.6 ...
Now you have to transfer all the old bearings over to the new trans bell housing. The bell housing is sold without an parts really. It has new seals installed, but that is about it.
This is what I did today. I'm going to just put my write-up here for now until I get a full sticky thread for just that. But you guys can at least see what is involved. This is a rather simple job,...
You need any KA24DE clutch kit. Get one to suit your needs. I got this one from Greg V. It wasn't cheap, but the thing feels amazing.
