Re: My projects

Looks good. On that o2 housing, did you have to open up the w/g port on the flange at all for an sort of larger piping for the tial, or was the opening big enough? And did you weld a new piece of tubing on it for the w/g? I have the same one, and would like to do the same.

We basically cut up an O2 housing with dump for internal WG and made our own external WG thing on there. We just ordered the 38mm flanges, so no problems with it lining up. Then welded it all together.

Re: My projects

Finally got the tranny out.. Center dif is junk.. woooo.. I guess on the positive side, they explains the crappy mph.

So once more money gets saved up and parts sold, will be getting a 4spider center dif. along with evo3 1st gear. I already have double syncro 2-4 ready to go in.

I just saw this thread. I'm very behind.
Nice cars and great project you have going.
Do you happen to know what the offset is that you are running with your 255/40-17?

Re: My projects

So what's with the piece of alum. sticking up on the catch can? Will that get bent down and used as a mount? It looks like it doesn't really serve a purpose, and would probably hit the hood the way it is now.
