i wanted to ask you guys....ever since fitting my strut brace it seems to push the air-con line down a bit and the line now comes very close if not touches/rests on the rocker cover.
should I do something about this and try and raise it and get it away from engine or is it fine like that? I was told it's fine by a few people as it's heat resistant etc but i'm not really comfortable with it there.
The air box bolts onto the engine mounting brackets and not the chasis.
You can even use the stock air box in K20a swaps into other vehicles.

What strut bar? take a pic of the engine bay with it in.
Considering its already near the engine I doubt moving it up or down a bit will make much difference.
yea man......i love my ep3 every sec especially after the mods installed ( GruppeM and RM01A). GREAT CAR !
Just wondering how long u guys would keep your EP3s? 2 yrs 3 yrs? To me, i think i will keep driving it until it's totally non driveable (maybe the engine will dead after 200km? don't know ).........
but....if the FD2R is available here, that is different story....haha

Should be fine honestly.
yeh i wasn't sure as it's so close already like you said but thought would be best to check to be safe. It's a J's Racing brace and i went of the pics that came in the box with it where the air-con line runs under the brace arms but i have taken a couple of pics just then...it's resting on it but should be fine?
