In the pics they may look "too small", but in person they look better. I was looking at the GT3 style mirrors, and they just looked way off for a street car, on your car Billy it flow better. The only ones I considered were the Gandors...but theirs is the Carbon Fiber "look".

Alright, here we go:

I was thinking of somethings I want for my car....don't know which one to get first....so why don't you guys shop for me. Here are your choices, add something else if you would like if you don't like anything in the list, comments, etc.

1. Seibon CF Vortex Generator (Really think it will tie in the look I am going for..comments?).
2. Cuscom Master Cylinder Stopper & Sparco Fire Extinguisher (To be mounted on Spec-C Tank).
3. Sparco Comp 3" 4-Point Harness & Nomex Harness Pad (in black).
4. Whiteline or GT-Spec (Which one?) Anti-Lift Kit (Race version).
5. Cusco Engine/Tranny Mounts.

If you have any other ideas, let me know. My other alternative is to get some of the parts for the turbo upgrade, some of the cheaper parts on the list.

Go with the Cusco mounts. They are pretty hardcore but I love mine, so much less slop in the drivetrain.

Take your A.D.D. medicine & focus on the turbo install.

^Funny man.....

For the turbo install, this is my list so far that I need to get parts for.

1. DeatschWerks 850cc Injectors
2. Full-Race Exhaust Manifold w/1300F Silver Coating
3. Full-Race Up-pipe w/TiAL Red 44mm EWG
4. APS Fuel Rail Kit
5. APS DR725 FMIC in Black
6. APS 70mm CAI
7. Blitz SBC-ID 3 Boost Controller
8. Grimmspeed 8mm Phenolic Thermal Spacers
9. FP SS Oil Feed Line for the Turbo
10. Okada Plasma Coilpacks

Thats just the list I have, prob if anything, I can go ahead and order the APS 70mm CAI. So vote away!

man i would be buying stuff off that turbo list instead of the other crap.
why are you going with full race? i thought their **** isn't even compatible unless it's their rotated kit etc? plus you don't even have a rotated kit, you're in stock location and i'm pretty sure their **** only works with their ****

Full race does have a stock location manifold, and one for their rotated kit. They don't have one for use with anyone else's rotated kit though.


10. Okada Plasma Coilpacks

Yes, you NEED these for the install

Have you been reading Import Tuner?

Billy, Full-Race's exhaust manifold worked with a FP Green...how do I know? I saw the guy who has the FIRST Full-Race exhaust manifold, and he runs a FP Green with Meth....also went for a ride in the car.....talk about spool up being close to mine!

Al, yes I have been reading the mag......also read the article on it on the web...def an interesting piece and why not throw it in the mix for my setup? It can't hurt but only help.

I guess the vote goes towards something for the turbo install.....then it shall be that the APS 70mm CAI will be ordered by next week. Any other suggestions? Cusco mounts are great too....
