Well I just got done installing a 5zigen exhaust, H4 Hella headlights, and ASP underdrive pulley. Along with that I replaced the coolant temp sensor, temp sending unit, O2 sensor, PCV valve, front main seal, fan clutch and belts (of course).
:bigok: The exhaust sounds great. It's very deep at idle (which I have to readjust now) and when you rev it it sounds VERY nice. I think I'd describe it as throaty. Cruising at highway speeds there isn't a drone like my stock exhaust with a glasspack (prev. owner). I got it from SPL parts from the sale. It shipped out quick and arrived unscathed via UPS.
:bigok: Next is the ASP pulley. I replaced the front main seal, which was almost non-existant, while I did this. The install was very easy except I had to get a puller from my neighbor to get it off. The engine revs more freely and the idle is a bit higher now due to this mod. I'll have to readjust it tomorrow.
:bigok: And last up are the H4 Hella headlight conversions. The beam pattern on them is amazing. there is sooooo much more light in front of the car it's crazy that I could see anything with the sealed beams...which I couldn't. :ughd: The bulbs are Hella +50% H4 bulbs which put out a decent amount of light. The only thing that bugs me about this mod is that the adj. on my passenger side headlight is all fucked up. It aims really high and to the center. I'm going to see if I can't get another assembly from the junkyard to remedy this problem. I got the conversions from Mike at clearcorners. He was great about contact via e-mail and by phone. I'd order from him again if I had to.
So that about sums it up. I can get pics but I don't have anywhere to host them and my car is dirty so that may come at a later date. I highly doubt it though. I can also take video with my digi-cam but I am in the same spot with hosting. :x:
If anyone has any questions about the install of anything or just general questions about it feel free to ask. :bow:
