Can I see some pics of your engine with the supercharger? How about some closeup pics of your car with the suspension mods you have....I want to see how much fender gap you have!


Thanks,
SHUMAx

I will try to pick up some battery's today for my digi cam. Believe it or not the fender gap is about 1/2-1inch less then a max with the same suspension. It's because the I30's fenders don't have big fender flares like a max does. BTW I am sending out a money order to day for Sprit springs! I will try to post a few pics on this thread later for you.

Thats what I was planning to do. Is that bad? I have read tocikos are designed to with stand 2 inches of lowering.

emax95: tight *** Maxima...oops, I mean I30. How you like the supercharger so far? It's the V2 supercharger, isn't it? I heard a few complaints from members who have the V2 supercharger. I wonder why is that? Any problems so far?

You know... I know in the original thread where you posted the Cefiro grill I said I liked the I30 one better. However.... that grill is TIGHT!!! Your car is beautiful man. I don't even mind the chrome wheels, they look real good with the grill.

Thanks, My SC is a V2 and I love it to death! I have logged in about 1400 miles on it so far and have not had a single problem with it. I think the early V2 model SC had a few
glitches in them but have been strightened out at this point. Another possible reason why people have had{have} issues with the SC is because it was installed improperly, I made sure it was installed perfectly my self, the draw back is it took me over 40 hours to do{ saved a lot of $$ too!}.

Weasel, Thanks for the compliment. The grill I decided to get is actualy a different grill then the one I posted a few months ago. About the chrome wheels, they do blend in with all the other chrome acents quite nicely I think, personaly I think if I had alloy wheels it would look funny just because it would not blend in right.

Hmm the hardest part? Thats a tuff one, I would have to say installing the fuel lines to/from the aux. fuel pump. The lines are kinda confusing to figure out {for me anyways} and removing the oem lines was a tedius thing to do. All in all every part of installing the SC is just a pig pain in the A$$. The 5 days of installing my SC were probably the worst 5 days of my life! But the next 5days were the best!

What the heck are you talking about? I personally took my car down to Stillen to have them install it since they are suppose to be a "pro." It wasn't the install that was causing the problems I was having or other people were having. It's been over a year since the first kits came out, so maybe Stillen fixed the problems. In my case and others, "improper" install wasn't the cause of the problems.

Re-read my post and you will see I said the V2's had GLITCHES when they first came out, so why do you have to say it again? BTW I was not addressing you in specific rather the general V2 owner. Ok?

Emax-

Your I30 is very sweet, but those Ghetto rims have got to go A set of satin or gunmetal rims would look so sweet on that thing.
