It's been awhile since I have updated this thread. I just wanted to give my input on the Phantom ESC. It has made a night and day difference. the torque reminds me of my old 350z. This seriously made me fall in love with this car all over again. In addition Rob's customer service has been exceptional. If anyone is on the fence with this kit don't be. I assure you you will be pleased

Just got my Anarchy Motive shift knob, and my 1.5 dump pack conversion will be here Saturday! The Knob feels awesome and it makes shifts effortless

Car looks great! Any cosmetic modifications too (or planning too) or keep it stock on the outside & a killer under the hood? :p

Clean! I like it although, ONLY TRD front lip? Won't that look a little funny since it makes the front a little squared, so it won't look flush with the sides & rear...
For the rest i like your list!

Yeah, you're right about that ha ha. I guess I'll have to look into another route, or get the whole kit. Next on the list though is the SPEC-D headlights and Valenti tails then I'll go from there!

They sure do! I would order the open flash headers first but I don't want to wait months. Not that the product isn't worth it just feel like waiting down the road a little when the wait time easy up a bit.

I will be installing the 1.5 conversion today!

Do you have build thread?

Sweet!
Well, if it's really worth it i'd wait it out
Your 86 must be pushing quite some horses! Sucks that we're not allowed to install turbochargers on N/A cars here in Belgium... I'm still a student tho so it's not like i could afford it immediately :p

And nah bro, my car is still pretty stock so no build thread yet, it's not going to be worth it. Maybe once i get suspension & wheels done!
I'm sub'd to yours tho! I'm curious what beast this will become in the long run!

Grtz

How do you like your Manzo? I am looking at getting a used one. Just need to save up a lil more $$$. They are incredibly cheap compared to other companies.

Hows the quality / weight/ sound/ alignment + fitting?
