How wide tires do you think will look right? 225's or so?

Hey Nootch,

I'll send you pics of my FMIC with the Syms bumper next weekend.

If I knew you wanted this, I would have snapped a pic on my TRUST R-SPL FMIC inside the ZERO SPORTS front bumper. ;)

I will show it off on Tuesday then. ;)

I was leaning towards the Zero front bumper....nice tall grill opening. I think I saw a pic of your car...it is silver with the full Zero kit and JDM headlights right? SWEET! I also have a JDM front bumper beam coming and read that you were doing or did the same thing...how did it all come together...nice?

what's the deal with the name SPL? I see the HKS T51 SPL and some intercoolers like that as well... is this like top speed trial gear or something?

Then there's Garage SPL...

Alex, was that IC in the carton with the bumper beams by chance??? ;)

Not sure what the SPL in the Trust and HKS products mean, but the SPL in Garage SPL means "Speed Performance Lab" :)

Gerry - WOW, that looks AWSOME....I mean it...really sharp!

Good Work.
Imprezer 06-16-2002 08:36 PM

Nope. The FMIC was hand carried back for me on the plane. My intake, radiator, blow-off valve, roll cage x-bars and few other items are on that same container. ARG!

Is that an STi manifold or?

And is it just me or are you using two different headlights? :confused: :p
Imprezer 06-19-2002 03:07 AM

I am not "using" them. As you can see, the car is all apart, so I just grabbed first 2 available headlights from the box with parts and put them in so that the bumper will not fall off. It was done only to take pics. ;)

-Alex
Imprezer 06-19-2002 03:08 AM

Not STi manifold. Better. ;) WRX manifold, extrude honed and powdercoated.

-Alex
Keiho 06-19-2002 03:12 AM

Hehehe...yea I thought you had the JDM HID lights... :p

When will your car be finished? Can't wait to see the finished product. :cool:
Imprezer 06-19-2002 03:37 AM

Soon. I am still trying to get a nice turbo to run on my car. I am test fitting a very "small" Trust/GReddy T something something next week. Muahahah! ;)

-Alex
Imprezer 06-19-2002 03:39 AM

Forgot to mention this...

The FMIC was designed to use in a stock bumper so when I put my ZS bumper on, I had a ~ 2" gap between the bottom of the intercooler and the bottom of the bumper. Very ugly and about 1/3 of IC was hidden up top behind the bumper cover. Luckily for me, there was enough play in the pipes that allowed me to lower the IC core by about 1.5- 1.75" with the use of existing holes and few spacer. Now the entire opening is filled with the IC's core. Only ~ 1" is still covered by the bumper cover.

I think that is the bumper I want:)
it looks real sweet. Can you describe what you meant by:

I understand the play in the hoses part....I would like to know what you did with the spacers....My MRT bolts to the bumper by the 4 inside bumper bolts(2 on each side) and the hight does not appear to be adjustable.

Nice Evangelion scroll, Alex!
 
Hehe "I will not run away, I will not run away!"

Imprezer 06-19-2002 03:09 PM

Yes, it is mine. It now HAS an engine since 2 weeks ago and it is not white. We do have a white shop WRX, but it is nearly stock.

whiterabbit 06-19-2002 05:29 PM

where can I get a R-SPL instead of the Vspec core sold in the US? Does the R spec core come with a kit for the WRX or did you have to customize it?

thanks
nqwan 06-19-2002 08:43 PM

adamsrs 06-19-2002 09:08 PM

adam, sent you a pm :)
Imprezer 06-19-2002 10:56 PM

I will be running Trust/Greddy Airnix with custom turbo inlet pipe.

Adam, there will be no hard feelings as soon as you cover those huge holes on the bumper with some foglight covers. ;)
