    have you ever looked into any of the adhesives they use in autobody. 3m, lord fusor, evercoat and valvoline all make really good products. probly the best would be the evercoat since that one dont take a special gun, just a typical calking gun is all you need.

NO PENZOIL! haha Gm and Pennzoil Syncromesh are the same!!! Pennziol makes it for GM and has the same part number.. But i wouldnt use it.... lol Kevin sls

    that setup looks different on an integra. I'm used to seeing it on dsms. Looks good, alot bigger than the last one.

    You cannot just splice into the wires. You can t the sender off of the back of the block though. 1/8 NTP -> -4AN adapter threads into the back of the block where the dummy light sender threads in, then run a 6" -4AN line up to a brass T. Then off of the brass t you will have the stock dummy light sender on one side, and the autometer sender on the other side. I cannot remember if you have to do something similar for the water temp or not...

    If you cant access it from the floorpan/beneath seat, you'll have to drop the tamk. It's located in the tank on that vehicle. Hope it isn't full of gas.

    well I've kinda gone in a circle as far as what I want... but I know that I need to cars... one to be reliable, and one to fun/fast... either a dsm or an rx-7, whatever... neither are going to be reliable. just depends on how expensive the fun/fast car is to decide what kind of dd I have.

    Yeah, the intercoolers are 3-4" thick, but they aren't the most efficient. There is zero room for much else, without radiator relocation and such. Inner fenders were cut a little to suck the plumbing up off the ground (the owner lives on a mile of gravel :eek: ) We'll see how well the I/C work, I guess- probably putting it on the dyno on tuesday or so. IAT's don't lie!!! andy
