yeah i was going to bite the bullet and go single right away, but the budget is getting tighter as i'am almost done with the car.

i looked a little more today and found most people loop the hose from the head to under the second turbo, im going to keep looking to see if blocking them off will affect anything.

I did a bit of research and most people loop it. You CAN block it but it does make sense to keep the coolant flowing better in the engine. Think im gonna loop mine but with -an fittings.

Made some offset tension rod spacers for more angle!

Also made sway bar mount spacers to clear the oil pan if I end up running a front sway bar with my stiff spring rates. I want to be able to atleast drive the car both ways to see how it drives.

Also made some motor mounts out of poly to the height id like the engine at.

nice update!
I did a mod on the circuit sports flca by moving the mounting point for the tension rod down to clear more angle, but the tire still like a 1/8" away from it when i hit full lock, so might have to make something like this for my tension rods.

I use to hit sway bar and tension rod but I had a pretty good size tanabe sway bar and Drift line tension rods witch have a big 1.5" hex to them and my rim would touch but before I had 18x10.5 with -0 offset. Going narrower wheels also.

Removed more wires from the interior harness.


Bored waiting for a ton of parts to come in since I just sold my s14 to put more money into the car so I had some stickers to install.

I love it. But flames coming out the nose sounds even better, if only to see what it would look like. I like builds that have fun. I love lamp, too.

My VEMS standalone ecu's I ordered came in 3 days all the way from Europe. Great system, tons of options to select from when ordering the unit. Ordered a unit with dual EGT inputs, 4 bar map, SD card slot for data logging. What sold me on these units is vvti control, nitrous control, internal wideband output, o2 correction and of course price! Ordered 2 units and 4 sets of plugs so instead of having 4 cars with ecu's I can swap ecu's into different cars and just switch maps! Not gonna drive 4 cars at once anyways!
You mind PMing me the website you got this standalone from?

Finally starting to look like a car, final test fit of parts before I send out stuff to get mirror polished. Also ordered a bunch more parts, purple samco hoses, going to do 1 piece branded brake lines from the master to the calipers re-routed under the engine and same with the clutch line.
