[*] lol ..
Yeah I was pretty confused on the title until I saw the new Shark in the water part...haha
Anyway, welcome aboard dude.
Looks to me like you've been living on ebay and SR .. too bad you didn't find this site sooner we could have helped you fix it up cheaper (and probably better too). Some sites to check out .. KSpec.com, HyundaiPerformance.com, Importshark.com, and of course the classifieds section on this website.
I didn't know Fidanza made a short shifter?
Have you found the fix for getting rid of the check engine light that comes on after you install your headers? (search this website wink1.gif)
What is "stock wing (clean line)"? IMHO, you should look into a turbulence Type-R wing, they look really good on RD2 tibs (search this website for "type-r" and you should come up with some pics)
The Nology wires are really overpriced and don't really work as well, most people on here go with either the NGKs or ones from a new company, PRDonline.com.
How much did you buy it for? Mileage?
Let's see some pictures!!

I see you're in North Carolina. Hope to see you at the NOPI show in Knoxville, TN this year. (see NOPI topic in our forums)
Is there anything else you're needing for the car? Several members are parting out theirs or selling aftermarket replacement parts.
Can't wait to see pictures

Uhh, they don't make a short shifter for the RD's. They label one of their shifters as the 2001 through 2005, but it doesn't fit us.
Sell it or send it back bro.

Did you buy the filter seperately? K&N doesn't make AEM's filters anymore.
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>[*]Custom 4-2-1 Headers from ssautochrome</div>
Not the greatest headers, but better than a kick in the ass.
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>[*]Nology Hotwires and Nology Silverstone Plugs</div>
Very bad choice here, they both suck, badly.

OK OK bash the title a little more.....haha........nah I know its gay
Yeah I do alot of ebay and sharkracing
I have my own store for imports on ebay and started a new website gobuypolar.com bodykits,hoods, fenders Lambo doors you name it. Just tell me your from rdtiburon and you get the wholesale discount
gobuypolar.com and gobuypolar is my store name
The site is a work in progress I know im only 17 but hey Lowes Foods 7 bucks an hour doesnt pay for headers and cat-back thats for sure....haha
It funny you say that about buying stuff from people here because I just bought some ARK front and rear struts for a 100 buck like 20 mins ago. I was about to pay a couple hundred, already lovin this place.
About Nopi....whens the date on that, and does nebody want to group up and have a cruise? And HIN is coming to Charlotte in May is nebody coming to that?
I got the Hotwires and plugs for 75 bucks off a kid who crushed his tib a few weeks ago street racing
At the moment I only have pictures of the tiburon when it was wrecked. I will make sure after it gets out of the shop, I take some pics

Did you get the Erebuni kit (club GTR copy), or the Invader kit (veilside copy)??
And I still think you should try to get a type-r wing, I have an RD1 but I love the way they look on the RD2s.
If you want a short shifter, get either the RSide one from KSpec, the MeganRacing one from FlyRyde (check Vendors section OR flyryde.com I don't know if it's been updated yet), or the B&M. I have the B&M and like it but most people don't like it beacuse it has a long shaft so it doesn't really look like an SS.
I've got the same headers, they're really good for the price, but I ordered some equal-length ones from FlyRyde wink1.gif
I'd probably try to get rid of those plugs/wires...and the Fidanza SS too
I know how it is modding with a low budget, I'm only 18, freshman in college, paying my own tuition (whatever student loans doesn't cover that is, lol) and work for a telemarketing company..(but most of the time I do incoming calls, so I'm the customer service guy for Comcast cable smile.gif)
good luck man
