yeah in my instance is going to be easier to plumb back the ssqv, custom intercooler piping etc

 

might take you on on that jack, going to try and find an airbox at the wreckers & go from there, cheers

 

& yeah agree on the whole 'partner' thing, i call the mrs 'the mrs' even though we're not married

If you get stuck I have a factory airbox that you can borrow.

[strooby D]

cool, thanks mate but after a more permanent solution

 

not a great location for my current foam pod right under the bonnet vent LOL

Get a proton box if you get stuck.
The airbox bit I have is ex proton, but with the silencer knocked off, cleaned up, and the port blocked with a black plug. Looks fine.
And will clear the bov piping fine.

can anyone tell me if a standard cc lancer front bumper reo bar will fit a gsr with a fiberglass evo 3 bumper?

 

if so, is there any chance its going to clear this intercooler?

 

[evo-gsr]

No way the reo will clear that cooler unless you cut the centre section out. You might even struggle to get the bar over it?

[strooby D]

cool, cheers, so it has a vertical component to it? is that the part you're talking about chopping out?

[strooby D]

this is what i thought it looked like:

[evo-gsr]

Thats the one...but the middle section might need to be removed to get it past that big fuck off intercooler is what I'm saying....

[strooby D]

hahaha cool, cheers

Will definitely need the chop

[strooby D]

so not much point in having it then, will pretty much loose all lateral strength chopped in half LOL

[jack be nimble]

The intercooler will be stronger than the bumper support.
Just screw the bar to the cooler. Lol

Make sure you put silicone on the screws first.

[Geo&Kez]
