Still heaps to do.

 

Wire dizzy and TPS properly (soldered connections etc)

Air box with oil catch can routed into it.

Oxygen sensor

Speed sensor (might make a hybrid AE82/KE70 dash cluster)

 

If anyone wants to straight swap my KLS short shifter for a standard T50 shifter gimme a holler. No idea where mine went.

Drove a 2 hour round trip to get the airbox, didnt miss a beat, purred like a kitten.

Pretty much the first time since I have bought it that it has been enjoyable to drive.

Cheers man, it was immensely satisfying driving it tonight.

 

Started fiddling. So much for a straight forward install.

 

This is how it will sit, it will be able to be bolted down properly. The exit pipe will be relocated to the top of the airbox.

i have ordered a 3" 90 degree silicone bend which will go to one of the VR expandable rubber things then to the existing blue 3 to 2.5" silicone step pipe.

I'll grab a K&N filter and sort out some kind of CAI with the J pipe left over from the VR intake pipe.

Better idea of how it will work.

And how it sits.

Shoe will be replaced with proper mounts.

commodore airboxes are suprisingly useful for this sort of thing.

 

I used a VS airbox in an AE92 SX that I threw together for my father in law.

 

Fit perfectly, just a good size and shape

 

ohhh, and do the happy dance!
