more pics of engine bay. Less pics of vendors products.

Hey that car can fly it’s hovering :wink:

What RB is it?

rb25

greddy intake doesnt fit on the 20’s…crossover pipe on the valve cover is different aswell

big money

i cant wait to see it finished cool stuff

can it be modified by professional fabricators to fit a rb20?

lol original nutta ur obsessed with lost to eh? last night was CRAZZYY. lets have a lost thread. sry for thread whoring

hurley is a fat fuck

What bushings are those black ones?

nice pictures man! hope to sit in this thing soon. and keep up the picture of the new suspension mods u got. engine bay shots are boring after 3.

thanks samson…

ahmed, those are energy suspension. they’re one of the many budget bushing upgrades available for our cars…

super pro, energy suspension, rs*r and most others are of equal quality and just slightly different hardness, etc and do a reasonable job of helping stiffen up the chassis, steering and suspension.

these are a slight bit softer (more forgiving i guess you could say) than the rs*r’s but manufactured by the same people.

just an FYI, if you want top of the line bushings, Noltec is the way to go. Completely different class of bushing and completely sexy to drive on.

oh fyi… an energy suspension kit for s13 is approx 125-130 bucks

And what mounts did you use, John?

noltec w/ a bit of customization

tein inner/outer tie rods…
http://jammin.jshost.ca/ohio/52.jpg

those tein tie rods look AWESOME! Where’d u get the tein inner tie rods, and did they come with spacers? im thinking of getting them as long as they have the spacer. and also, im going to warn u b4 hand. watch out for bumpsteer. the tein outer tie rods arnt that good, way too much bumpsteer from what i’ve read. on the other hand, SPL are adjustable for bump steer and use a hemi joint (or whatever its called). much stronger.

pm me or mesg me on msn. im interested in knowing where to grab some tein inner tie rods and SPL outters.

www.midwestpd.com <-- best for… well everything

give them a call tell them John from Canada told you to call.

oh and yes, they came with spacers :slight_smile:

can it be modified by professional fabricators to fit a rb20?[/quote]

the bolt pattern and waterlines do not match up, same problem as the rb26 plenum, altho, i could have a flange cnc’d up to solve the problem.

if you’re asking if it was modified…it’s got sidefed injectors…it’s an rb25.

whoaa… nice car/ parts! i love it! just wondering how much did all of this cost you?

^More than you can afford pal :wink:

AAah… and I’ve finally succumbed to the gayness that is FnF

^ all you need now is a big wing and some naws. :slight_smile:

Sweet, an RB25, looks interesting but how much power are you planning on putting into it, and how much did it cost?
