Random Question thread..

Not without some modding, no. Some people even have trouble fitting those ebay kits to a Familia, so don't expect perfect. Also that giant pipe diameter will give your turbo lag as it's gotta fill up the system before it can pressurise.

[project.r.racing]

middle pipe = afm to turbo
bottom one = turbo to intercooler
top pipe intercooler to tb.

look like it will need a 90 degree silicone bend.
flange off turbo is wrong.
cheap silicone without mesh inside it. 12 months use a best.
built for car with different dimensions, so nothing will line up correctly.

I've got plenty in stock

You'd need a 20mm spacer to run RX-8 rims.

Yet I'm just after a 2.5 system.. Anyone know someone that can build one for me??? I already have the FMIC

[lukeyprotege]

Hey guys what are some good mods to get me started, I'm on my P's and want to get the BJ2 looking good

[BG1.8sp]

Lowered, rims, sp20 body kit if you like them Or afternarket kit. Grille if you like them. It's quite a nice looking base for a hatch. You don't need much to make them look good. Just try not to add too much crap on it what I say. Keep things simple and clean.

[BG1.8sp]

Best thing is to troll through the BJ worklogs in the build section,
Have a look and see what you like and what you don't like

[lukeyprotege]

alright thanks I wouldn't mind the sp20 front as I crashed into my house on my L's :S my bad and now have a dodgy spay job on it hahaha

[BG1.8sp]

Ahh, also, cheap DIY job.
Do your headlights black

Its not as simple a new front bar, you need new guard liners, front spotlights, mounting brackets from memory.

Get a OEM Front lip, SP20 skirts and rear skirt. Lower it and itll look hawt. That or get a erebuni front lip and SP skirts.

Both will be about the same cost id imagine.

[BG1.8sp]

Yeah I was just about to reply with the same!!
Also new headlights too

I would go with the front lip, sp skirts and sp rear lip. Cheaper option.
Still looks great

[lukeyprotege]

yeah thanks guys hope fully when I leave school I can get it how I want it, it is a bit rough at the moment and needs some love. What would be the general pricing for the lips?

[BG1.8sp]

No idea on regular prices on the lips. Lol
But if you plan on keeping it... Just wait until a good buy
Comes up.

[lukeyprotege]

are your headlight darkened and if so what did you use I have heard of that nightshade but I think it's illegal correct me if I'm wrong, don't know much sorry haha

[BG1.8sp]

Night shade is illegal.
Chuck the lights in the oven. Separate the front lense from the main plastic unit.
Pop the insert out, give it a sand and paint it whatever colour you want....
Or if you are feeling funky and JDM, sticker bomb with some heatproof clear. Lol

[Ice88]

Ebay has a few SP20s getting recked now a days. Could nab a decent amount off one of those.

Theres a maroon coloured one atm IIRC. Rear skirt and sides look in perfect nick.

[BG1.8sp]

That's what I would do.
Do the 5stud conversion, swap guards, lights, front bar, etc.
Get seats if u want them. Put the SP center console, swap to the SP gauge cluster, SP skirts, rear lip.
If you want you can swap to the sp shocks springs, all that.

Cheapest way to do an SP20 conversion for sure

[lukeyprotege]

Ok so what I am thinking is that I should start with minor stuff like DIY and cheap jobs while still at school then when out I might go low and rims then Lips. I am happy with the interior atm so if I end up doing it would be later

[BG1.8sp]

Cool! Sounds like a plan!! So you have a BJII yeah??
If so, doing the black inserts is a bit easier than the BJI (BJI you have to do lights and indicators.)
The BJII is all in the same unit, it requires you to
Mask up the reflector just where the Parker light is.

EDIT: when you get around to doing it, sent me a pm and I will give you a step by step "how to"

... I really should write up a propper one with pics!
For now... I Wil just stick with the pm
Me... Or in bens case.. A step by step and "what the hell am
I doing" texting session!

[lukeyprotege]

yeah a BJII I really like it, 1.8ltr fun hahaha. So what part of the light am I actually painting never pulled a light to bits thanks for your input btw
