Ryan5793 Posted January 18, 2015 Share Posted January 18, 2015 i did this with mine, however i dont have abs or the washer bottle there Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jayc-glanza17 Posted January 18, 2015 Share Posted January 18, 2015 Mines lasted bro, maybe I got that big hole in the cruise bonnet.lolbut my old man uses air ducting with Teflon coating which mine is.Think was on air conditioning site he used. .I'm looking at the electric pas for the summer.

FMuscle Posted January 19, 2015 Share Posted January 19, 2015 I don't have a problem here, but a ps one... The probably sent all the non ps to australia... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Phil Posted January 19, 2015 Share Posted January 19, 2015 (edited) Trying to find one is a challenge in itself According to Rory@toyotagtturbo.com a non PS rack is doable from a PS rack. and can be done right(not just looping pipes but removing the piston Rory... Never done it myself, but i cant see it being difficult with a fabb'd up bracket to relocate the pump and run new hoses? OR Do what the Honda girlies do, strip down the PAS rack and remove the piston etc therefor effectivly making it a non PAS rack (the correct way) Looping the pipes isnt correct way of doing it. Swapping out for a manual rack will give you a longer lock to lock also. Phil Edited January 19, 2015 by Phil Quote Link to post Share on other sites

4efteboost Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 (edited) got a question for the boys with their filter behind the headlight. Does enough cold airflow get to the filter with it being there? Im in the process of putting my top mount kit on and think im gonna have to put the filter there aswell but worried about not getting a decent amount of cold air Edited May 26, 2015 by 4efteboost Quote Link to post Share on other sites

4efteboost Posted May 27, 2015 Share Posted May 27, 2015 Jamie thats the manifold i got off you, struggling to make anything fit with the powersteering in the way lol How was it getting a decent airflow to it there? Have seen that it can make a bit of difference when getting mapped if the filter is stuck behind the headlight Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ROTABOOST Posted May 27, 2015 Share Posted May 27, 2015 My set up, tight as a tiger but works well Quote Link to post Share on other sites
