yeah its kinda pointless. I wouldnt make a LHD car RHD. But thats what the guy wanted and he got it. I would put the $$ in suspension and turbo shit

HAHA ok, again I dunno why you are getting defensive, because you asked and I answered. If you don't like my answer don't ask. Simple as that

ha, how is aftermarket catchcan (or lines) better than a stock one? Because it's chrome? that's interesting. Especially on a stock turbo.

Not in the pic it isn't... and if you left it off he would have some nice cooling problems. (since you claim it is on now, I am assuming you arn't running electric fans correct?)

Who said black vacum hoes had to be stock ones? And no colored ones are ricey.

Anyway, you get upset too easily, especially after you ASKED me to explain what I thought was wrong with it. Just chill out. I'm not going to carry this arguing on and waste my time because in your mind your swap will always look perfect, no matter what, and mine will always look like crapp no matter what. If you were smart you would take some advice on how to make a bay look a little neater, but that is up to you.

Yeah me too but then if you've ever seen my car you'd know I care less about looks....

I had to go dig up the old picture just to resfresh my mind so let's compare:




Chris's pic is smaller so its hard to get as good of a look but from where I stand his wiring does look much tighter. Its run straight and parrallel to the valve cover and fire wall.

I've seen worse than both of them, but if was a car show I think chris would take first....

My $.02

that one pic of the blue painted sr20det is gay, chris went for stock looking, not rainbow colored, but your right man, chris does do clean swaps

you also got to put into perspective that the swap isnt done, the bay will be cleaned again, all hoses and wiring renewed shined & more.
