CAMSHAFT SEAL, CRANKSHAFT SEAL, TIMING BELT,TENSIONER, WATER PUMP, SPARK PLUGS AND OF COURSE ALL THE FLUIDS. THATS WHAT BEST JAPANESE ENGINE ON COBB PKWY MADE ME CHANGE IN ORDER FOR THEM TO HONOR YOUR 6 MONTH WARRANTY IN CASE SOMETHING HAPPENS.
THEY TELL YOU TO USE YOUR INTAKE MANIFOLD AND EXHAUST MANIFOLD CAUSE YOU WONT PASS EMISSIONS WITH THE JDM ONES
damn thats alot of shit to replace just to make that shit legal huh? well by legal i mean pass emissions! i would personally look locally first! I have a b18 for sell! pm'd
