Chris AME Posted November 6, 2012 Posted November 6, 2012 (edited) Taken me a while to get round to doing this, but better late than never i suppose (il put pictures up at later on) I bought a nice fairly standard pearl white JDM import july 2011 Loved it but couldn't get over how quiet the exhaust was so my first mod was an AEM short ram intake and a motordyne plenum spacer then i added a HKS Full dual exhaust bought from abbey motorsport i then bought some rays wheels, refurbed them in sea grey and got some nice new bridgestones on them ready for wales then came some RED(not pink) rays wheel nuts Polished my plenum I then bought some berks HFC's of TARMAC Which Sound My car is now on sorn but i have some 3d carbon skirts to fit from tarmac and a Cosworth Plenum from Zmanalex to keep me busy as well as some tein springs from a member on here Next to do: Skirts and rest of body kit Plenum Springs and maybe begin some supporting mods ready for FI Edited July 15, 2013 by atkin666 Quote
MrLizard Posted November 12, 2012 Posted November 12, 2012 Looks nice, i imagine the exhaust sorted your sound issues out ? Quote
Will370z Posted November 12, 2012 Posted November 12, 2012 Very nice, looked great in wales. Love the zeds in white Quote
Chris AME Posted November 17, 2012 Author Posted November 17, 2012 Cosworth plenum assembled And on the car Hopefully get some more done this week Also ordered some tein bonnet dampers and bought a strut bar of CS Quote
Dblock Posted November 17, 2012 Posted November 17, 2012 The cosworth plenum looks the business. Quote
rtbiscuit Posted November 18, 2012 Posted November 18, 2012 i could have dipped the end caps in carbon if you'd wanted Quote
Wasso Posted November 18, 2012 Posted November 18, 2012 And I could polish the casting Funny enough that's the first cosy plenum that I've seen without the carbon end caps. Quote
Chris AME Posted November 18, 2012 Author Posted November 18, 2012 I didn't know which ends it was coming with just ordered it from Alex, I kinda like them and I can always paint them. Polished would be nice but will have to wait for now some more things to sort out first 1 Quote
ZMANALEX Posted November 18, 2012 Posted November 18, 2012 Looking good Chris, Cosworth discontinued the carbon end covers due to loose carbon fragments contaminating the engine oil and causing piston ring damage. Alex, Quote
Chris AME Posted November 19, 2012 Author Posted November 19, 2012 I thought there would be a reason for it, a company like cosworth wouldn't change something for the sake of it. It's my favorite mod so far I think Quote
Chris AME Posted December 28, 2012 Author Posted December 28, 2012 Had a busy couple of days, got my side skirts bonded to the ones I bought of eBay And been fitting my tein springs Got some red hoses to fit under the bonnet and a front lip to bond, spacers to fit and some more bits and pieces to buy Quote
lmc Posted December 28, 2012 Posted December 28, 2012 Looking good Can i ask what advantages does the cosworth plenum give? Quote
Chris AME Posted December 28, 2012 Author Posted December 28, 2012 At the moment the plenum will negligible compared to a standard plenum with spacer, it's FI when you reap the benefits of the cosworth Quote

Chris AME Posted December 28, 2012 Author Posted December 28, 2012 I like the side skirts very simlar to mine They could be the same ones as I bought them from Tarmac Quote
