Reccomendations

alright i am going to try my best to keep with some of my plans to do some things to my car, keep it mild at first but change a few things.

i need some reccomendations on some parts

Namely...
Headers
Fuel Rails
Total Polyurethane Bushing Kits
Sway Bars

i was thinking addco for the sways, i have herd good things about them and they have pretty large bars for decent prices.
you may notice alot more suspension parts, i figure i am pretty good with egays tokico shock and spring kits for $330 but on top of that i am tired of having a car that feels like a barkalounger on wheels.

since were kinda on the same topic, i REALLY need to get a new fuel rail to clean up the Z. but i got a pallnet for the DSM style O-ring injectors, theres not injectors that match the Z's impedence and size (in CC's) (this is NA remember) that will fit the rail is there? any one know? cause i dont want to trade rails for the barb tail one for the Z's and def dont want to buy another one. i still plan on going standalone one of these days after all.

Call up Venom. Last time I called, they can look through their injectors, and find matching injectors from other vehicles with increased cc's. That was a couple of years ago on a Turbo Dakota project.

I was thinking about fabbing my own fuel rail if I went with the L28ET.

If you want coil-overs check out Modern-Motorsports. They are the only company that has a setup for the S130 outside of Japan that I've seen. My friend runs their setup and it's nice. The price is a little more than a basic coilover setup for most other cars like a 240sx, etc.

woof, coil overs spendy.
i am not going to go super nuts with the HP or the handling but i would like it to be nice ya know.

the fuel rail was to clean things up and i kinda like having a pressure guage on the rail it self aswell when i am tweakin some things.

off to pop in a new power supply in my capooter
