    The hardest part will be the tune. You could slap it all together but it's going to run like rubbish if it even runs at all. Which injectors is it using? You sound like your all ready convinced on buying them. Worst comes to worst just sell them off

    Your more than likely to loose power on a standard m20b20 engine. Without cams with a bit more lump, good headers, and possibly some head porting your not going to achieve much apart from an engine that is very hard to tune You can do as you've said and attach a vacuum from behind the throttles. If it feeds into a chamber you will get a more consistant vacuum signal (if you use a map sensor you'd probably want this). You could also use your afm and standard ecu but you'll still have a very hard time tuning it. It's a lot of effort for a bit of wank factor I'll buy them if you don't want them though
  3. If one person decides they want them then they aren't overpriced. Mag warehouse knows what they are doing and have set their prices at the upper limit of what anyone would pay. They are a business and they want as much money as they can squeeze from you. But at least buying from a company you have some sort of guarantee that they won't be duds. They don't want to get a bad name for themselves.

  9. I'm stuck waiting for the previous owner (scum of the earth)to pay off the loan on my car. All parts worth money have been removed - so no chance of it being on the road any time soon. 4 months so far with the car on jacks
  10. Did something I swore i'd never do and put rego on hold
  11. The US m3 headers are completely different to the euro m3 headers Euro headers you want Does your SA 328 have oxygen sensors after the cat?
  12. cough* http://oldschool.co.nz/phpbb/viewtopic.php...749&start=0 If you've got a spare GSXR100 i've always had dreams of making a kart that would lead to great injuries. /thread cluttering project looks great. Would you be able to get some more photos of the suspension? and how is the rear axle mounted?
  13. Welcome If your based near hamilton i'll trade you some clear front indicators for yours and beers If it isn't manual this should be your first performance upgrade-with suitable singlemass flywheel,clutch, etc. Closely followed by an LSD and a suitable diff ratio for what you use the car for. Exhaust headers will give you a little bit (either get second hand ones from an m3 or member wayney might have some). An air filter might gain you some power but more then likely just give you noise. I believe others have had the window issue before. I'll post back if I find where What springs are in it? Your missing a jack point cover thing but looks nice anyways.
  14. e34's are 5x120 not 4x100 or whatever those in the photo are hubcentric.....
