i used to have a 12. I just put the box back there. It was so damn huge would barely clear with seat up, had to have it sitting just perfect.....if you need to use the hatch just take it out. But a majority of 240 people dont have systems....more performance oriented vehicles. I always had the back seat down....more air flow.

yeah but I have a high mileage engine so I might as well do something to it. I do plan on putting an sr20 in some day.

well if your just in the modding itch(i know the feeling), there's plenty to do it. Sure it wont get you noticed at every stop light like a stereo would. But you could do just general stuff to it. Suspension is what i would work on right now. There are plenty of pieces out there that are fairly cheap and would make a great difference over the stock worn out parts, thus making the car that much funner to drive. Since you plan on the sr20 swap, i wouldnt waste money on anything engine related with the ka. But you could get a fuel pump, 300zx filter and so on. Maybe a nice little rotor and pad upgrade with stainless lines. Just little stuff. Hell even an exhaust since there non engine specific.

here's a good site for suspension pieces. They are very quick on shipping, and have outstanding customer service. They have a few right ups on some of there products on how to install if you like to do your own work. There prices are very good too. Quality parts.

thanks alot sideways, the price listed is 79800 yen, which is only $1123 nzd!! is it possible to buy directly from them? im gonna give spl a call back tomorrow and see if they can ship to me...i hate the idea of buying from a newzealand retailer because im sure they will bump the price up like whoa, i havent found anything anyways....... ohhhhhhh mannn i cant wait to get on the track with these (not drifter)

man my suspension is stiff enough as it is. The railroad crossing near me is like hell. I dont want to go any lower. I already got the subs and now I have changed my mind, im just going to get some good speakers for the back. goddamn I am fickle. I want to do exhaust now.

hmm i dont know about the world wide thing. It may cost a little more for that lol. But im sure they may do it. I dont know whats involved in all that type stuff for customs reasons and what not. But try emailing them, i always got a response back by the next day. There have very good customer service. And my stuff would always arrive a day or two before the estimated time of delivery. But going across the world i dunno lol.


if there is more stuff you want from them, i would just order a nice size list. It would be easier and cheaper instead of making numerous orders to ship out of the country. Like iv said in other threads i have there tension rods and subframe bushings. There all well made. Tension rods are beefy too. Look very strong. Alot thicker than tein.
