New guy with a hatch
whats going on everyone. my name is Mike and I just got my hands on a 92 hatch.
I don't know anything about these cars. I do have experience with cars and drive a B5 S4 and a 350z. neither car is stock and while I know my way around the garage this car is completely new to me.
I intend to turn it into a fun little street/track car. I know the car has a jdm h22 swap, coilovers "don't know what kind", roll cage, ssr comp 16's, hasport mounts and axles, and a few other bits and pieces I know I am missing.
where can I find an intake tube and filter? right now there is just some rigged setup and I can't stand it. I can't seem to find many sites that carry parts that fit these swapped cars. if anyone could point me in the right direction I would really appreciate it.

Dude check out craigslist, they always got good parts. low prices and local pick up, so u can even ask the people u buy off of to c where they got there stuff. alos hit up DNR in hayward and Alameda imports in alameda CA.

I really wanna say stay away from online shops.
Since you dont know the guy and he might be selling you trash.
Butt. Ay. Its up to you yaa know.
Whatever you're comfortable with.
I say look around the marketplace in HT.
You might find what youu need.
Goodluck dog.

Yea online websites are bad to buy off noel but like i said. Craigslist is a only pick up, so u go see wat ure buying first. yoo can pretty much tell if its messed up or not. Nd its always local pickup.

Re: New guy with a hatch
i disagree. if you have the ability to buy in a shop like in cali do it. but like where i live the nearst worthwhile shop is minimum an almost 2 hour drive.
or i could do research buy it online and bam its there just as i asked. never had a problem yet.
but best intake. cheap 3" tubing a velocity stack and a filter. works like a dream.
