I received a hotpipe/bov combo today.
HKS hotpipe.
HKS SuperSequential Blow-off Valve.
I checked around and most of the hotpipes that I came across had a different pipe for the frontmount and the sidemount intercoolers. This HKS hotpipe can be used for both so if I ever decide to upgrade to a frontmount then I won't have to buy another hotpipe.
Greddy oil filter relocation kit
Hardware.
Fittings.
I started with with the oil filter side of the kit.
Use a allen wrench to plug up the two small ports and a 13 mm socket wrench for the larger port. I assume that these ports are used for a oil cooler kit and oil sensor(temp/pressure). There's also some ports on the other part of the kit.
Take this nozzle and put on one of the gaskets.
Install it in the kit like so.
Take this nozzle and a gasket.
Screw the nozzle in.
You'll need deepwell 20mm and 23mm sockets to get over these nozzles but I didn't have any deepwell sockets of these sizes so I used a crescent wrench to tighten these nozzles. The instructions also didn't have any torque specs so I just cinched them down.
This bracket mounts to the oil filter side of the kit and bolts to your shock tower.
Use the provided bolts and a 11mm socket to mount this bracket on the side.
Next I got the hoses.
Place the fittings.
Place the hoses on the kit...
tighten with a flathead screwdriver.
Done with that.
Now for the block side of the filter.
Go ahead and install the two nozzles with the provided gaskets and put them on the kit. There are two small ports on this side of the kit...oil sensors?
Stock oil filter location.
Mount the kit and screw the nozzle until tight.
Use a crescent wrench to tighten.
Take the other part of the kit...
Mount the hoses on the plate and use your screwdriver to tighten.
I used a ziptie to support the kit to the engine until swap day.
The fittings on this relocation kit are as follows...
-proper thread size 3/4-16UNF
-According to Greddy they recommend the Greddy QX-01 or QX-03 filter.
-They also have magnetic filter with the SX-01 or SX-03.
-You can also use 1985-87 Toyota Corolla GTS Oil Filter.
-The S13 Sr20 filter should also work.
I thought I was going to have to buy a different filter but the stock SR filters do work.
This hose cover came with the kit but where it goes...I don't know so I'm gonna let that part hang loose for now.
damn i want one of those greddy kits but i cant afford it right now haha bank is spent i cant even buy a girl a drank hahaha oh well. but yea you need to finish it so we can be amazed of how clean that thing will look in the car
excellent thread positron, its got all the information you could possibly need to know to swap an sr. All you have to do is follow your lead and substitute parts if you want something different. I like. Super clean

that black conduit is made to slide over one of the SS braided lines. when the engine torques it might cause the hoses to rub against each other which, after a while, will cause the ss braiding to start freying. the conduit will stop the freying from happening in case they rub together.

Need opinions on what type of boost controller to get. I've been reading up on many different brands and I'm lost...they all seem to have their pros and cons. So what's the electronic boost controller recommendation for a stock setup that will probably never see much adjustments in boost?

I dont know if it would be over kill for you but I really like the greddy profec s. It is so simple and that is why I love it so much. You can have a high and low boost setting that is switchable by pushing a button. It is really easy to set up what pressure you want the settings at as well just by turning the knob, unlike some where you have to go through a screen and change persentages and bla bla. If your wastegate is set up at 7psi you can have your boost controller shut off and it will boost at that. You can turn on your boost controller and have the low boost setup at whatever boost you want so say 9 psi or whatever, and then you can have your high boost set up wherever you want as well so say 12 or 14 psi. So switching through the boost levels is easy!
The coolest featur I have never used untill yesterday is the gain setting. I just always had it on the fastest spool feature but we went on some back roads with a large car club and the roads were really curvy. I could tell my car handled better than most of them but they were getting away from me on the corners because I was kinda scared of the throttle because if the boost were to just build like crazy I wouldnt have any traction. Well I turned down the gain all the way and it made my turbo spool really slow but gave me gobbs of controllable power.
If you want a boost controller with a good list of features that you can controll with 1 button and 3 knobs while driving and not even having to look at it, the profec s is for you.
It never has boost creep either, just a really consistant boost.
Clutch kit...again! I had to ditch the first clutch so this time I got a Stage 2 Exedy that is sprung.
Pressure plate part#:06950B
Clutch disc part#:ND05T
One more clutch kit and I can open up my own shop!
Currrently reading through the post -- definetly wished i would done hoses when install of mine was being done - especially the 3 side by side next to the right side of the block under the intake - Coolant hoses - but did take 15-20 min to find but found em at o'reillys and one i had to size down cuz it was a weird S
I've had every combination of P/S pump and bracket from here to Tucson so I finally thought that I had this pump situation complete.
Tools needed;
Socket wrench
Socket extension
14mm socket
17mm socket
Long socket extension
Old sock(Socko)
I finally got a SR pump with the right bracket so I can mount this pulley and be done with this.
Mount the pulley...
Place the nut on.
In order to keep the pulley from spinning while you tighten it...
I took a socket extension and stuck it through one of the pulley holes.
Put something soft on it to keep it from scratching or dinging up your pulley.
Take a 17mm socket and tighten the pulley.
To torque it up just place it on the ground and use your foot to step on the extension to hold the pulley while you torque the nut to 50ft.lbs.
Done.
The pump is ready to be mounted to the block.
Mount it here and then spin it so you can tighten the mounting bolt.
Use a 14mm socket to torque to 23-31ft.lbs.
After all this trouble I still ran into yet another problem.
This P/S pump adjuster bracket seems to be the wrong one...doh!
I think I got all those brackets and stuff mixed up when I was packing and selling them all off. I probably sold the bracket that I actually needed to keep...doh! I think...I have the SR non-HICAS bracket, the SR non-HICAS P/S bracket for the front of the pump and I believe I switched the HICAS adjuster bracket with the non-HICAS adjuster bracket which is where I'm at now.
