To answer a few of your previous questions,
don´t go to crazy about your intake system!!! Silicon reducer, hardpipe, headshield, airfilter. Job done, I run a hose from behind the bumper to behind the headlight to draw in some fresh air.

I do belive carpets are the same on 2dr´s and 3dr´s (exept for the boot carpet) no matter if its SR5 or AE86, the gearstick hole is differnt on automatics.

I run NGK iridium spark plugs, they´re a little more expensive than OEM, but well worth it, much nicer spark. Watch for the right heat grade, tho!

About the fan conversion, I don´t really like the viscous fan, they get old, have poor efficiency and will steal a little power from your engine (rotating mass).
A proper electric, even better termostatic, setup will be better.
It also leaves you with more space in front of your engine, very handy if you work on alternator/cambelt etc.

Thanks for the answers Smile

That would be great,planning on using the carpet for the back for inspection and normal driving.

If i check this guide
For NA cars usually use a grade 6 for most road applications, a grade 7 can be used in hi compression race type cars, grade 8 in extreme rev/compression cars.

grade 6 looks like the right choice then?

because of regulations the last part will be before the trunk part of the coupe,so not cutting wil be done there like this

Would it be a good idea to remove the tar and replace it with por15?
I can't see any starting rust this way and it weights probably alot

I will also remove the tar from inside and then repaint it

I hope you didn't pay to much for those side brackets. I took these off and threw them away.
