Also I'm currently having a problem with my AC that I think may be electrical, at random times the AC would stop blowing cold air and the clock would blank off then after a while AC and clock would come back on. It don't affect the radio as it would work as normal. Anybody ever experience this?

D&Ds in the Bamboo.
Cater for around 4-6k for everything
Can't say how much it cost to install it...did it at home. The hardest part was swapping the dashboard. It's a 2 person job imo. Everything else simple.
Just sell back your old stuff and you'd offset what you paid for it by a decent amount.
WRT the AC problem...it's probably the panel itself, the AC button,Econ button,defogger and clock is wired into a circuit board behind the panel...so most likely it's faulty. Check for faulty connections first though.
And by the panel I mean this itself:

Ok thanks will check the panel. Is D&Ds in Bamboo number 1 and will anywhere in the Bamboo buy back my interior stuff from me?
RollaBoi wrote:Hmm ok....selling it on tuner/facebook might really be my best bet. I just hope I get it sell quick if I decide to go that route as having a place to keep that would be an issue for me. Anyway thanks again for the info. I wonder what price the blacktop and silvertop engines go for? Can I reuse my 5A Fe transmission and is the engine swap really worth it?

185/70R14 and 195/60R15 sizes should work with no problems.

Ronaldo95163 do you have any pics of your GT interior conversion? And anybody have any tips on how to make your ride drive smoothly or close to it even when driving on bad roads?

Woa...I was thinking of going to 205s when I changing my tyres (Currently on 195s). Was it the width of the 205s that had it touching or the profile of the tyre itself?
Currently on 15s as well.
I know the AE101 L-touring wagons suffer from that problem with the 205s touching(experienced it )...thought with the flared fenders the 110s came with would have solved this issueRollaBoi wrote:Well if that is the case I don't see it making much sense to put in a 7a unless maybe if my <a class="vglnk" target="_blank" href="http://www.autopartswarehouse.com/search/?Ntt=engine" rel="nofollow"><span>engine</span></a> gone through or something.

I didn't take any pics but this is how it looks:

I'm running KYB gas/oil shocks in the rear with the factory springs and it rides pretty smooth imo. The front has AE114(AWD Carib Wagon) coilovers (courtesy the previous owner smh) and it's a bit stiff...the car was higher at the front as well...so I took off a coil from the front as a temporary fix. It's not extremely harsh but it's stiffer than it should be.
Anyone has any experiences with coilovers btw?
BC Racing and Tein makes coilovers for the BZ-G levin (Plug and play for us ) but i'm getting mixed reviews on the internet about them wrt comfort. Some people say they get an improvement over factory...others saying it harsher but with the added benefit of some improved handling.
Ronaldo95163 wrote:Yeah as long as you using back factory spec absorbers you good.
Shouldn't be mixing springs with spring rates that aren't suitable for the compression/rebound rates of a specific shock absorber.
BTW I see Wilwood have a big brake kit for us too
4 pot in the front, 2 pot in the rear.
Massive overkill though
