Oh I reused the accordion tube, only the box part got replaced sry

Jedi you are going to be at Dozer's this afternoon yes? I may ask you to look at my RB intake, the install went fine I just want to make sure that I am securing it properly with the grommets and whatnot.

Rev: I will be there and I'll take a look at your intake.

Mike: yeah, the accordian tube is reused for the RB intake. I'm telling ya man, dealerships carry them in stock because the techs break the plastic elbows all the time. A couple bucks is all it should cost you

Renesis: nice find on those coilovers! That's the same type coilover that xdeedubbx had and they are VERY stiff. They're intended for japanese roads, the HKS RS coilovers are more suited for us here.

I was sooooo tempted to buy those.
