have their parents fund their projects and whatnot, so just
putting it out there .

sri

i got mine off ebay for under 30 shipped to my door, black tubing with black and red filter, looks like a k and n filter, but its a knock off, when it comes to intake ive heard the piping is just piping, its the filter that counts,

btw, this sri is 3". with everything needed to install and both vacumm lines.

this one is the same i have exept its crome, and its 40 shipped,

the aem are card certified i believe an intake is jast an intake

ahhhhh you got the battery cover, my coupe had that, clean car friend.

lol are they rare . because I myself have one in my engine bay. itook it off once but placed it right back, figured it came with it for a reason.

And clean CB by the way!

Thanks everybody . Thanks for the tip on the SRI, I think I'll get an ebay one after all. Lordco priced the AEM SRI at $200 last week and $160 this week, they can't make up their minds!

Too bad shipping to Canada from ebay costs almost twice as much as the actual product xD

[dbales]

Add an SRI (aem = $200, ebay = $20 + $30 shipping... any huge difference?)

I'd go with ebay unless you live in a state with strict emission laws. As another member said, piping is piping.

[StreetNewb]

The starting of weight reduction:

New intake:



Extreme weight reduction (going to use pillows for the drivers seat):

^jk, just cleaning 'er out!


Car never had a lip on it when I got it, so I grabbed one at the local junkyard for $6. It wouldn't seem to bolt on properly because it was missing something (maybe I should have used nuts?)... Anyways, I tried to use ties, that didn't work well. So I decided to use silicone! (lol). The oil bottles and fuel injector cleaner bottle is there to help support the lip while the silicone drys:






I plan on getting the wheels next

Update:
Passenger side window got smashed the other night becayse some f*ck kicked my door (http://www.cb7tuner.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=159637). Anyways that's been fixed, but the dent is left. So I guess I got an aftermarket dent in my door, WOOT.



Anyways, since the door panels were taken off I decided to remove the crappy pioneer speakers from there and put in my new sony speakers I've had sitting in my closet for 3 months collecting dust. They sound much more clear and go louder without distorting.
