also i might HIGHLY suggest you get a bigger radiator ASAP! that factory one will heat soak fairly quick (just replaced mine after dealing with random overheating and 6hour drives that should have taken two but many cool down stops waiting for the engine to cool down)
but nice looking swap. and i would be interested in one of those coil pack covers.
and a third on the stock intake mani being gay. anyone want to give me a good one?

Thanx for your suggestions...to answer your questions
-Because the new crossmember needed to be installed along with the steering rack, plus I had access to a lift, we went through the bottom. All the suspension assy needs to be dismantled anyway with the new crossmember so we installed the whole thing as 1 piece. Went in like butta too.
-I've had no heating issues yet. The needle did start to rise a bit only because I was at the balcony in 90-95 degree temps drifting the crap out of it. After a rest it didn't happen the rest of the day. I'd like to mention that a vented frp hood is now installed to aid in cooling (plus it looks cool)
To unicoladron-I may get some vid this weekend at Driftday El Toro, I'll keep you posted.
