Fowler.J.12 build

[Swerve]

Yea they look nice I just dont recognize them, probably from a SE

 

[fowler.j.12]

Well now that you say that I did a little research. They look like GSR rear seats but gray not black.

 

[endo617]

Been told they were a special edition GSR? I don't know I think they look good.

Naw they are 98-01 LS clothes, GSR are black/dark gray

 

[fowler.j.12]

That makes more sense. Thank you sir. Anybody heard reviews on the Skunk 2 Alpha series TB? Thinking about ordering that and a TB spacer.

 

[Swerve]

I think you don't need it just yet

 

[fowler.j.12]

That's what I was looking for. Anything you recommend I could get a little more performance out of?

 

[Swerve]

I havent read thru your thread thoroughly, do have an intake? I know you got that itr header which was a great buy, and what about full exhaust? You could probably do 2.38 or 2.5 since youre going higher compression and have the vtec heaf

 

[fowler.j.12]

Yeah 60mm yonaka exhaust It is a 96 spec ITR header though so it is a 2 inch collector instead of 2.5. Kind of useless. I have an AEM SRI with a new AEM Dryflow filter on it for an intake setup.

 

[fowler.j.12]

So the Throttle body is getting ported by a friend of mine. shouldnt do too much but just a piece of mind thing.

 

[covert_Con]

That's a clean looking teg. Good updates, can't wait to see the motor finished

 

[fowler.j.12]

Thanks. She will get there soon enough. Got my tax check back and seriously debating sending out to Delta cam for a regrind.

 

[fowler.j.12]

Skunk 2 Tuner 2 cams being shipped out tomorrow. Once break in is done, injectors swapped, exhaust finished, and I find someone to tune they are going in.

 

[fowler.j.12]

Well it runs. Like a top. Kept stock injectors, cams, and exhaust till I have money for a decent tune and a little break in time.

I did happen to have a problem. I didn't even think about it at the time but honda doesn't put gaskets on the oil pump. I didn't realize they factory hondabond it till it started leaking. Only about 15 miles on it though and it isn't a big leak. Glad I caught it. Everything else works well. I am impressed with myself and excited for the next step. Thanks for all the help and motivation from everyone who has been around.

 

[fowler.j.12]

Anybody have any thoughts on the skunk 2 LMA's? I know they won't be as good as the SOS ones but for a hundred bucks I might pick em up. And then tear apart my head again to put em in.

 

[endo617]

You mean LCA's I'd go with BWR lower control arms, I have them they are good so far.
