lutandorgavero: I bought the A'PEXi Power Intake for 12,800 yen + shipping I'm not sure how much shipping was but whatever it was included the HKS timing belt and head gasket. Perfect Run actually sell the A'PEXi Power Intake for 11,600 yen + shipping so I suggest you go through them.
squigg: Thanks man. I just hope I can keep it clean this time 
try november 2007 [8~2] hahaha

MR2QIK: Ha ha yes bad english and get your mind out of the gutter pare! I have pretty much decided on my wheels. Now it's just a matter of getting the cash to buy them :) kameleon: Sounds good man. Modify the rocker cover for the Caldina intake manifold? I guess that'll be a job for later on this year when I do the W2A. squigg: I'll be happy with a reliable 200KW at the wheels  . Have you found yourself an engine man? sandog: Yes yours has been awhile. I guess the manifold is the only thing stopping the engine being put in right?

greddy_es: Thanks man. The picture just turned out okay, can't say I'm much of a photographer. kameleon: Cool man, mind if I grab your help? squigg: Awesome! I guess you'll be beating me to it  . It's just so hard finding a beams SW20 half cut.

I just think it'll be nice to fit everything that comes with the 1/2 or even a 3/4 cut into mine and my bother's G-Limited.

kameleon: You have a point. I guess I'm fussy that's all  . At the very least I would like a BEAMS, ECU & loom out of an SW20 so it saves time having to modify things. A late model transmission would be nice too as the G-Limited is a TYPE II. greddy_es: Haha I thought so. I'm wondering if the BEAMS KYP is selling is out of a CELICA ST-202. I noticed the beams logo is "upside down" compared to SW20 BEAMS and the alternator seems to be mounted too high for a 3S-G equipped SW20.
