Double the price for universal maintenance items? I'm confused what you're trying to say here. Maintenance should still be happening on a pretty standard schedule, just more random shit is likely to...

Yeah I would have been surprised if that didn't happen, truthfully. The motor frustrates me but I still can't call it a bad motor. Also, fucking coil packs. I never did have an issue with oil, so...

The cam follower thing @krayzie (http://www.ft86club.com/forums/member.php?u=66389) posted is real. My Golf R eats through cam followers for breakfast. I've had to replace them on the order of 20,000...

You know, there are only so many ways you can route piping, and even less that are conducive to good response. The kit is said to put out what, 330ps? That's the same ballpark as every other basic...

I'd probably also lean toward the HKS. I wouldn't wait for the turbo though, given your time restrictions and the fact that the community hasn't run it through the ringer yet.

I do like SBD but like I said, it doesn't conform to Japanese standards, but if you're not worried about inspection or anything then it doesn't matter. GReddy's install guide is the same BTW and I...

Just FYI, as far as I can tell, HKS doesn't make the version 3 kit for domestic use at all. You're limited to the version 2 kit (12001-AT009), again probably due to Japanese requirements. Hirano Tire...

Their schematics only partially ever make sense to me, and I read electrical schematics every day.

Regardless, sometimes the easiest solution is the right one, so why not try it first?

Just read through the forums for a while and don't be lazy about it. Kits don't come with those.

Nice. I did see that but I wasn't sure if the Torque dev decided to get off their ass and code for AA. Wish they would.

I'm kind of leery about going all-in on AA. I remember the AppRadio.
