random parts 1K
Cam 330
pushrods 130
springs 175
timming chain 150
Spec Clutch 425
Alu flywheel 315

I paid $5500 for the roller.but it came with brand new brembo brakes/braided lines,new greddy Type S coilovers($1500) and **** load of guages which ill sell,a 3" full stainless exhaust(sell too) and a few other things ill sell. It has 63k miles on it and needs a few interior pieces which are damn hard to find.Its red now but im unsure of the future color of the car.

ok guys I got my CAI in and I worked on mounted it yesterday. I have a 4" intake pipe with elbows and a velocity stack. I spent some time modifying the MAF sensor to fit into the 4" pipe with out restricting flow, this was fun. The intake was ment to be for a speed density tune but I wanted to stay away from that and still have the flow I needed.
Here is the new mounting for the MAF I cut it down to nothing but the hot wires and did not damage it. I had to then cut a 3/16" X 7/8" hole to insert the sensor into the pipe.
I also relocated the front fuse box to allow more room for the AC.
this is going to be right behind the bumper core support so it should be well protected also.
