See I was thinking that too. I'd much rather just trim it down to fit better, but at thew same time I'm still debating whether or not I want the intercooler to be in plain view.

Thanks man, wish it has gotten further along but stuff keeps coming up that needs to be taken care of first.

Well didn't get much done lately. Got the solid motor mount into the spare rear mount I had. Installed the wings today. Drilling was a PITA for the Kami Flush. First had to pick up some bolts for it, but I'm changing the mountin hardware later down the line. They way it is set up right now is too much of a hassle. Going to buy studs for a easier install after paint.
Srry for bad pics again, After the install, was annoyed with it haha.






I followed the directions from Kaminari, not the best way to install I think. On the underside of the wing it has 4 mounting spots. the 2 most far out I couldn't even get access to on the underside and realized it after the pilot holes were done. The wing itself had good fitment. I can atleast say that. When I installed it, the position is almost on point. It is may 2-3millimiters more on the driver side, but not noticeable at all unless you are really looking for it. Over all I'm happy with the product. This was the last piece I need to test fit before I sent the stuff of to paint.

nice bro... The two wings llook strange but i think after you get the kami flush mount painted it will look a lot better worst comes to worst just take off the hic spoiler but i think with both it will look nice

I agree, still a bit mixed on the look, but I think they compliment each other later on and when the car isnt on monster truck status haha.

Court this morning, hopefully that goes well so I work on the car afterwards.

Well court went ok.....Managed to work on the car afterwards, pulled off the front bumper, installed the apts, installed the front sway bar, dropped the subframe and switched out rear motor mount. Having the same issue I had before where after the motor mount is in,The bushing doesn't want to line up with the tranny bracket so I can the the center bolt through. Somehow I installed this before and I do remember it was a PITA to install. Does anyone who has done this had this same issue as me? Also how did you go about it? I have the speed source motor mounts if that makes a different. I trie prying at it, i trie smacking the bushing to move i t over and no difference. It started to rain and the weathe is spastic lately so I had to stop for the day. Any help greatly appreciated.

Been a while. Got parts back from paint and installed them. Also got in the rest of the suspension parts. I was planning to first show the car at a upcoming show, but realized it is the same day as my graduation so that isn't gonna happen. Instead I showed up to the fast five car meet to show my friends I finally got a new car, since only a few people knew.





turbo isn't on yet. I have my final exam this week so studying is priority again. Once my final is done, turbo install will begin.

Yeah the only thing left for the exterior is wheels. Also need to reinstall the tow hook and may pick up a set off anzos if i ever sell the extra stuff laying around.

well haven't updated in a while. I was out of town and enjoying summer haha. Turbo is. Minor issues here and there. Took it to the track this past friday and best I ran was 14.1 at 107 mph.

Need some help Scionlife. After doing the install and getting the car tuned(I was out of town for two weeks.The car was started but not really moved), the person watching my car and the tuner who did drive suspected my brakes were sticking. When I arrived back in town I did enjoy the boost,but remembered to check my brakes. I did a full inspection on them and after 2 days the noise disappeared. It was more noticable when pulling into the driveway and at slow speeds. Thinking the issue was remedied and since everything was cleared I drove the car again. Well long story short I was out yesturday and the noise came back. I checked it to today and finally found the real source of the noise. The dowpipipe/spipe is rubbing up on the intermediate shaft(now I'm wishing it was really just a worn brake pad). Now my question to you all is what can I do to for a solution? There is barely any clearance on the two. They have rubbed up on each other for some time now (maybe at most 300 miles, but stupidly I did take it to the track thinking the car was in tip top shape). The only solution I can think of off the top of my head is to get the spipe altered so there is more room for clearance, but the issue with this is space down there is tight already. Any other ideas? I was also thinking about wrapping the spipe in some exhaust wrap, but I think after a while it would just get through that too. I need help Scionlife, any useful input is appreciated. As to why the noise came and went not too sure about that.
