d00d..

the normal drop in is ah BIG BIG hold back...

the K&N will ALLOW better air flow..

and the car gets the air from infront the car.. jus right by hood space in front...

so wen you driving.. is only cold air gettin into that vent.

cacasplat3, I eh find out more bout the headers yet. I sending the guy a e-mail to ask him if we jus put in a cat back exhaust (from the y-pipe to muffler) if it will make a difference.

Other than that, i starting my project already. ordered some lowering springs, bought a oil pressure gauge, voltage gauge to come, bought an piggy back ECU this morning, still to get meh laptop and diagnostics software.

Will let u guys no how it comes along when i get around to installing everything. Cleaned out the K&N drop in this weekend. car burning considerable less gas an running smoother. Also cacasplat3,if u getting trouble with your tranny let me no. Changed a sensor in mine this weekend that used to cause the tranny to not shift gears. sensor was $825. for a small piece ah ting.

Also had the mechanic check out the front ends, well boy is pressure!!! link bolts bad. front crossmember mount bad. steering ends bad. shock mount buss. take bout pressure. an i thought the car was wuckin good.

i asked him bout the mounts an he said is the front and rear crossmember engine mounts that have the sensors on them, unfortunately for me i have to buy one, fortunately it's not the $5000 i originally told u. He now say is $1500. for one.

cacasplat3, i come across this site that have a few parts for the A32 & 33 including a coilover system for $800US.

http://www.paradox-systems.com/index.php

Best stick with NGK for nissan engines. Been proven to work better. Heard the "nissan engines" don't work well with denso. Been discussed many times on the forum. Will see if i can dig any up.
