I'd probably go to a wreckers or 2nd hand wheel place and get an old steel rim for a few bucks, might be even cheaper if you offer to give it back to them in a week.

Also, I'm not sure I would get my wheel repaired at a shop that would let me drive around for a week on a space saver, surely they ...

Heya, I don't know too much myself, but since no-one else has said anything... i'd say that compression would be your biggest issue, as thats the main difference between the 3SGE/3SGTE (excluding the turbo).

rears, i have upgraded the 4 1/2 inch speakers to fusion 2 ways and they do sound pretty damn good

I've done the same, they really give a good sound stage, and wern't difficult at all to replace, just removed a few panels and used the t-top securing strap behind the seat to pin back the carpet ...

I had the same creak in mine, replaced the 2 bushes on the front sway bar and she was fine after that.
Perhaps go TRD hard springs? They only lower the car by 30mm, which will leave you at 100-105mm, which is a good ride height.
Genuine bushes should be fine. You tend to find that ones like ...

Try Repco, they should have them in stock.

Go to repco, get new set of front pads to match your car. I think they also have a guide to replacing brake pads, it's pretty easy, and would be something you oughta learn eventually.

Good luck.

Well done 2fas4u, those look awesome (for the price, lol), how did you attach them?

I was looking the other day at marley spouting for my sw20, I think the best looking style would be the 'stormdrain' range or what ever it's called. It's more rounded and has a nice shape to it, the other style looks like it's from roman times or something.

I was thinking that the spouting might ...

And no-one on this forum who has actual practical experience or technical expertise on this subject has endorsed building a desmodromic head for a 3S as a worthwhile project. Note my definition of worthwhile is providing improved HP and reliablity in excess of that which could be acheived with the ...

Could you please explain why a completely and utterly pointless "intention" should be encouraged? Or perhaps you have spent more time gathering technical knowledge about the 3S, or more hands on experience modifying them than I and others on this forum have and know something we don't? If so please ...

Sorry, I found the other thread about what you're intending to do, sounds great to me. Its a pity you got so much flak, and so little encouragement.

Granted there are plenty of people out there who intend to do powerful mods to their engines on a students budget. But everyone can dream, all they ...

What exactly are you doing with the head? Which engine do you have/are modifing (3SGE or 3SGTE?)

I have a 3SGE and am looking at some sort of N/A upgrade, I have some pictures of my engine with the intake manifold off if they would help?

Keep us updated, pics rule
