Just Added new parts to My Car

redchris_2020 · 03-21-2003, 12:37 PM

Just finished adding some new parts to my car
My Mods are
Borla Header
Apexi n1 Exhaust
Weapon R intake
Act Clutch And Pressure Plate
Unorthodox Light weight flywheel
zex 55 shot
Short Shift Kit
Carbon Fiber hood
Eibach Lowering Springs
17' wheels with toyo proxe fz4

These are my mods, Do you guys know about how many hp or how I would run In the 1/4, My Brother ran a 14.8 with a similar set up, but his is an auto, so I figure I should be able to run a low 14. Also what do you think my next mods should be.

Should be high 13s.. What part of oregon are you in?

redchris_2020 · 03-21-2003, 01:42 PM

I live in McMinnville

joefocker20 · 03-21-2003, 03:05 PM

Next mods should be Cams, some type of engine management, weight removal, and ditch the Weapon R Intake for a Cobb.

dcoty · 03-21-2003, 06:10 PM

I agree with Joefocker once again

Get rid of the weapon R and go with cobb for sure. Cams should go on your "to do" list as well, everyone who has them, loves them.

1/4 mile should be in the low 14s.

Supapooh · 03-21-2003, 06:13 PM

14's??? Ive seen people on here run high 13's with far less done than that.

redchris_2020 · 03-21-2003, 06:25 PM

I thought that I might do cams next which would you recomend, the street cams from cobb. I thought about ditching the weapon r but I live in oregon and it rains a lot here, but my brother has the injen cold air and he hasnt had any problems with rain getting in, so I guess thats something else to think about. Thanks for your suggestions. I was also thinking about getting a rear sway bar to stiffen things up a bit. Do you guys know if there is a camber kit for our cars because my tires wore down fairly fast on the inside, so I would like to do something to even out the wear on the tires.

dcoty · 03-21-2003, 08:11 PM

I had the cobbs street cams in my car and loved them. Good power gains for sure. I have a cobb intake and have no problem with water at all, unless you are in water up to your wheel well, you shouldnt have a problem.

I switched to cobbs racer cams which are more aggressively ground for N/A only...they also make power way past the stock redline (8,500 rpm.). Idle quality suffers...nice and lumpy!
Good luck.
Dan

i have real bad inner tread wear as well.. its down to the chord now. i also would wanna know if a camber kit would help even this out? sorry for being a bit off topic..

slowme · 03-22-2003, 09:43 AM

When Installing cams, what other mods would be recommended to go along with the Cobb street cams?

Ken · 03-22-2003, 02:03 PM

Go get an alignment.

I'd recommend a CAI such as Cobbs, Heads if thats feasible, a Brullen or MRT Headerback, and a clutch and flywheel. I'd also recommendthat you let me drive your car at that point

Nope. Imprezas have a high degree of adjustabiity (for a factory setup).
