Hey guys

Reading the forums i can see no disadvantage if i buy a greedy or subzero plenumand install it.

(If there is tell me before i make a mistake)

My question is, What do i need to buy to make this work, How much will the whole thing set me back and Where is the best place to get it done?

Respect

Although there are no disadvantages to this mod, im sure theres better ways to spend your money on other mods?

that depends on his needs stryder. stock suspension is da bomb for drag setup.

u can buy all that stuff from kb auto one/autobarn/supercheap.

u will also have to get a 1'' spout welded onto the intake pipe leading into the plenum. this is for the aac idle valve. u dont have it...good luck getting it to run,

u will also have to get the bov welded onto the fmic piping....i found in the driver front wheel arch to be the most convenient.

yeh true, its just so many people over look suspenion in the hope of buying more engine parts :D

what do you use the car for most stuart?

I mostly will use it for the 1\4 but i can always put better suspension later on. The owner before me put race suspension in it nothing massive (no coiloveres) but i haven't taken it out on the track yet cause i want to get it to where i want it, eg 300kw.

where is the best place to get it done cause this is what i want,

bigger injectors installed

dyno tune

the plenum put in and running.

there is nowhere where i live

    • But seriously, can we ask for the results of the "tip a bottle of metho into a nearly empty tank" experiment?
    • Hang on. Let me get this straight. The desire is to have coilovers, BC in particular, to be MORE comfortable on Sydney roads than stock suspension? Well, that's obviously not right. BCs have crude damping design at the very best, and typically hard spring rates. BC stands for Billy Cart. And then, the desire is to put in some shitty old worn out stockers, to get it blue slipped and then put the BCs back in? And then.....what? Not worry about getting pulled up by the Plod? Because you seem to have raised a worry about paying for engineering (which actually does solve all your legality problems) and still getting pulled up.... but the only problem there is that if/when that happens you have to show your paperwork at the inspection station. Whereas, if you just swap in borrowed shitty old stockers to get it slipped now, and then you get defected in the future, you have to go find more shitty old stockers then too. You course of action looks like this set of options: Buy brand new stock type dampers, and springs. probably cost a bit more than $1k all up, but will last for the remaining life of the car. Put them in, pass inspection, drive on them forever more. Hell, they could even be really nice Bilsteins and Kings or other lower&stiffer springs if you wanted. Get the car engineered as is. ~$1k. Buy new Shockworks coilvers (or MCA) and also pay for engineering. You're spending a lot more here. But these will be the best things that you could drive around on.
    • Might be worthwhile hitting up Facebook's groups, I know most of them contain terrible people and scammers - however you might be able to find someone that's in Sydney with factory suspension you could purchase and/or hire. Just do not send any form of money anywhere, in person cash only.
    • Thanks @Duncan Ride height is fine. I think it's almost stock tbh. Happy to share a pic. I don't actually have a regular mechanic as haven't lived in Sydney too long. Could you or anyone recommend any shops in Sydney?
