[attachment=19314SC00031.JPG]
ok.............engine is in the bay, gearbox is all connected up and im at the stage where im fitting the stock airbox.
i put it all on and shit but then i went to set down the bonnet on it and its too fucking high :angry:
the question im asking is, can anyone tell me how to fix this problem or has anyone had it aswell and been able to fix it?
AND i dont have enough money to buy quad throttle trumpets or any sorta shit like that so i wanna know how to fix it and fast coz its giving me the fucking shits atm and i wanna get my car finished before chrissy.
P.S. (for melbournians really) if i email/call toyospares, promax, meridian or even revzone etc., will they help me fix the problem or will they fuck me around? Right now, if someone fucks me around im gonna lose it
cheers guys...................please hurry

how can the stock airbox not clear the bonnet? have you installed it upside down?

we tlkin airbox or plenum
hehe look at those shonky welds, fuckin gasless mig
has it been installed upside down so the intake pipe is facing the front???
it shouldn't actually fit the right way up, it should hit the clutch master.
with silvertops on stock management you have to either customise the stock plenum or make a new one

Sounds like you have flipped it around. You cannot simply do this. If you view SamQ's threads and others, they have put it in stock position but cut the intake pipe of and moved it to the front of hte motor instead of facing the back near where your clutch resovior would be.
Sam possibly you can post pics to show him ?
yeah sure I will try and do it tonight when I am near a proper internet connection next,
oh and also try this article, the guy who wrote it is a bit dodgy but there may be something worth reading in there
