    Keep/Remove Radiator Duct behind FMIC?

    I'm in the process of putting a new front mount intercooler on my GSX (short story... fell off a jack and crushed the core, stupid mistake). When I pulled the damaged one off I saw that I left the black plastic radiator duct in place between the intercooler and the radiator. It looks like I...

    [RESOLVED] BISS moves on its own! Help!

    My BISS screw keeps vibrating/moving its way into my throttle body. Luckily it's tightening instead of loosening and falling out! It keeps going in all the way and thus my idle is too low and the car will die. It's easily fixed by me getting out, opening the hood, loosening the screw. What do...

    Just like the title says. My brother is getting a 3000gt VR-4 (newer than a 93 or whatever year they switched to fixed headlights...) and I am about to sell my GSX and we were wondering if the wheels would swap over and fit on the VR-4.

    My friends 240sx *video*

    This is my buddy chris' sr20 swapped 240. The black car is from 2-3 years ago, and the white one is from this summer. The white car was rolled 2 weeks ago though, so the engine and anything salvagable is going into a red 240 now. This will be his 4th 240... lol.http://rap.midco.net/jprosper/

    I've got a 1g bov that I'm using right now, but I'm looking to get one that can hold at least 30psi. I cant get a TIAL BOV because it has to recirculate, so what's the best one out there? Money is not really a big issue.

    SAFC and 720cc injectors?

    I need bigger injectors. I've got a line on some 720's. I know that the safc is capable of going to -50, which is enough (more than enough) to compensate for the injectors, but I've heard some things about timing being affected along with other things when you have the afc set so far from zero...

    Turbo for 2.3L

    OK, my 2.3L conversion is about done... all I need is a 1g CAS and my clutch. The question is what would be a good turbo to run on my 2.3L stroker? I've got 720cc injectors, which I hope not to sell. So.... what turbo on a 2.3L w/ 720's to spool under 3300rpm?
