Here is my other SR20 powered car, albeit an automatic. Much nicer than my '92! Not too much has been done to the car, but I've had it long enough to know where I'd like it to be. Here are the mods...

-AEM CAI
-eBay header
-KYB AGX's
-RoadMagnet Gen2 Springs
-Kenwood deck
-Pioneer speakers
-2 10" MTX subs
-JDM black housing headlights and corners
-B15 SpecV seats
-Recovered door panels
-ARP extended wheel studs
-16" MB competition wheels
-Dunlop Direzza Z1 star spec tires












There is only one spot of rust on the car, on the edge of driver's rear wheel well. My plans are the same as I listed in the other thread, DET with a T25 setup and a reinforced tranny. I only really want to make ~250hp.

Yeah, just a second. They ALOT more supportive than B14 seats, but about the same as B13 seats, although they do look better.

oooooh, those look nice.

They look similar to nx seats without the crappy fabric that looks like an 80's hooker halter top.

is that bolster adjust on the side too?

Those two knobs adjust the height of the front and back of the lower portion of the seat.

Changed/upgraded the front brakes on the '99 today.

I'd been hearing the warning screech for a couple of weeks, and the good weather today gave me the motivation to get shit done!

I picked up these loaded AD22VF calipers from Nick (Business_man24) a few weeks ago, the pads on them are practically new, although I have no idea what kind of pads they are, some sort of organic street pad. The rotors I got for a good deal, some used powerslots with ~3K miles on them. The rotors came with some Axxis Ultimates, I'll put those on later when I do the rears and put on the stainless lines.

I didn't end up putting on the new lines, even though they're pictured. I'll do that when I switch over to Motul RBF600.



Extended wheel studs suck, it takes forever to get a wheel off! I have no patience for this!


Pads are basically done.


New rotors are a good bit thicker, and a few millimeters larger in diameter.


Just enough room around the dust shield.


Old on left, new on right.






Had to cut some chunks off the dust shield to allow the caliper to bolt up.




Brakes bled and finished!



I would've preferred to have gone with a Wilwood kit, but this option was cheaper and allowed me to use 14 and 15 inch wheels.

Not very hard at all. In fact, I've taken them out and put them back in several times since I've owned them!

But seriously, I'm like the 5th owner whose used them in a B14. Whoever originally modified them didn't do a very good job, I honestly doubt these ghetto welds would hold if I got into a serious accident.

There is a write-up on how to make them fit on one of the sr20 forums.

Opened up my 5-speed trans today to make sure it was all kosher inside. For 134K miles it doesn't look too bad! A bit of metal shavings on the magnet, but nothing terrible.






The flash makes some of the gears look chewed up, but they're not.









Can someone tell me where this plastic piece goes? It popped out when I opened the case.

Picked up an AEM F/IC 6 today, got a good deal on it. Been playing around with the software a little bit today, seems pretty straightforward but I need to spend some more time with it and some more tutorials.
