It all depends on how much money you want to spend.

Gotta do something.. not like theres anything to look at here..

I'm assuming you are using a granger valve then? Having used both, I like my ball and spring type better.. Just based on my experience :shrug:

Sorry dude.. I really don't think theres any way you are going to get 18s on a brat without it looking like nasty old rice.. Tex did it on his RX, and it overstepped the bouds of taste.. just a little.. And EA71/EA81 cars have even smaller wheelwells.. Just my .02

On the other hand, they can be had from junkyards for around $35.. when they can be found.

Dammit clayton! Leave us cheapskates alone!! I already told you onece today.. back in your cage

Its probably better to get an IC first, but I actually did the boost controller about 2 weeks before the IC.. with the IC you can run more boost. Boost controoler takes about 10 minutes to install.. its not car specific One important thing that I forgot to put on the list above.. boost gauge!! One thing I cannot stress enough. If you are going to mod you motor, get it in tip top stock condition first.

Manual Boost controller - ~$25 on ebay -~$10 DIY Cone filter - $25 Autozone Aluminum MAF adapter - $15.99 autozone Various little crap to make it all work - ~$20 Theres a thread from within the past 24 hours that documents one users luch getting a cone filter and adapter off ebay for atoud $20 The filter sounds to be better quality than mine and the adapter is plastic. Pic 2 Hood scoop- $30 on ebay (unpainted) Only fabrication that had to be done was welding a small tube onto one of the IC pipes for the Recirc valve. Also had to drill out the end of the little pastic silencer on the MAF hose to plumb the recirc valve. Also, effective hood scoop usage requires cutting a hole in the hood. mine looks like this http://usmb.net/albums/albuo11/things_008.jpg All prices listed are estimates .. YMMV.. being the cheapskate that I am you can damn well bet I didn't pay that much

Just remember "Nobody listens to Russ"

Quiet you.. back in your cage;) AIM - pissedoffsoob

Intercoolers rule. Post away.. Maybe i will even share some of the surprises I have going on with my wagon right now If you use MSN instant messenger, look me up.. we'll trade notes czaharris@hotmail.com

Yeah, I see it now.. I was looking at on my TV instead of my monitor before.. couldn't quite make it out

Nice. a couple of questions.. Is the scoop wider than the hump? Is there an intercooler under that scoop?

either the rear diff has the wrong cover plate or you have one extremely unhappy center diff.. FT4WD 5 speeds didn't even come in 3.90 form... and rear end should match the trans, ir there will be issues.. I'm not exactly sure how it would feel with the FT4WD if the diff was mismatched. But you would know it immediately if you were to drive, in a straight line on dry pavement with the diff locked...you would end up with mad binding..I hope for your sake you just have the wrong cover plate on the diff or something. Nice job on saving it from the crusher though:)

SubaruBrat has forged pistons (I think) in the ER27 in his brat.. wonder where he got them..

clean the PCS contacts, or more likely, replace it I ususally go to the junkyard and buy a handful of them for $1.50 or so each.. Usually about one out of 5 of them are good.

EJ? No EJ on this side of the board

Not true at all!! I actually suggested that someone listen to you the other day. I just generally choose to ignore you myself

$100-$150 plus shipping is the norm around here the datsun guys pay more for them though

Good info .. Thanks!

Got my last 2 for free One before that I paid $100 for... but I got the whole car with it and drove it home 35 miles from bremerton to puyallup

No harm no foul. Nice catch For the record, 82 or 83 was the last year of the externally regulated alternator

Why are you so set on EA81 pistons? Just curious

Probably not going to have a whole lot of luck with that.. he is currently without regular internet access. I talk to him a couple times a week though and would be happy to pass on any questions you may have.. I may even be able to answer them myself...

My accell lasted about 10 months.. From the time it started having problems to the time it died was about 2 hours drive time... When I pulled it out, I noticed the coil wire was all puffed up from oil leaking from the top of the coil, down the wire and into the dizzy cap.
