Is it that bad DD an ITB car? So far no complaints from me

The Rigid Collars can be bought online from rhdjapan, nengun or even from Yahoo! Japan Auction. I got mine from a local dealer where I am:

Successfully re-installed my Carbing STB over the Jenvey ITB

Now trying to figure out how best to run my oil catch can since on the intake side of the valve cover, the PCV valve is no longer connected to the intake manifold. I remounted by oil catch can back on the exhaust side and venting to atmosphere but I think this is wrong. Comments? Ideas?

I want those headlights soooooo bad for the BRG! Where do you guys get them?

^^I got mine used from Yahoo! Japan Auction. They pop up once in a while

Superior light throw compared to my OEM Koitos that had removable H4 bulbs but still sucked pretty badly when driving at night or in rainy conditions.

Took out my tired, worn out Maxim Works header that had badly oxidized and pitted surface due to exhaust wrapping applied by previous owner. This resulted in some pre-mature cracks which I am going to see if can be repaired and attempt to clean up the ratty surface:


Thus in the mean time, I put in the OBX SS 4:2:1 header:

Went in without a hitch and the surface is already turning out a nice goldish blue sheen.

This was on top of putting in my powdercoated Capri cover and Maruha cover:


I am happy with the way the engine bay resembles now, no more changes for immediate future

I freakin love this ride!

Wow, your engine bay looks gorgeous! It'd look even better with some of those wires tucked.

I am....how you say. Jelly.

Thanks all, this is the cumulative effect of 3 yrs of ownership!

@morr - I was considering doing a wire tuck but it is too much effort and beyond my skills plus it will be tricky to do troubleshooting should anything goes wrong. It is mildly tuck in that I hide all the spaghetti wiring under the ITB filter

I am thinking of perhaps changing the cams from the mild HKS 256 in/ex to the more aggressive Toda 264 in/ex but this is just chasing numbers...

Re-did the insulation on my coolant reroute and A/C piping using an aluminized foam-tubed hollow pipe bought from a discount store. Looks way better than the exhaust header wrap I was using:
