Someone said to me that you can swap a Turbo II Hood onto an FB with a minimum of hassle. Is this true? If not, what would I need to fabricate? The reason I wanna know is because the TII Hood has a Hood Scoop. And I can get my hands on a 13B TII Engine quite easily for a swap. And seeing as the intercooler utilizes the hood scoop, might as well. Any suggestions?

I believe the hood is too wide and the contour is off in such a way that the fab mods would ruin the scoop. Maybe leaving the hood alone and running a FMIC on the TII engine would be a better alternative...

Just goto cpracing.ca and order a replica TII scoop.Its alot easier

Accually that would probably be a better option. Alot better of an option, thanks.



Oh heres another quesiton, you know those lock lug nuts some cars have to prevent people from stealing their rims - you need like a special key to get them off. Any other way to get them off (distructively if nessesary). I got one on a single wheel on my car lol and I can't change my tyres until I get it off. I'll need a replacement lug, but I'll worry about that later. Maybe a good set of vice grips? Or welding torch on the extreme side of options(I dont wanna torch my car though).

Have you tried welding a wrench or bolt on to it?I know theres a few ways other than torching it(Although I do work one of the biggest fab shops on this end of canada).I would try welding something to it that you can grip with a wrench first before you fry something with a torch.

smack a socket on the lug nut

or take it to a wheel shop alot of times they'll have the keys......

a wheel shop is a good idea.. i have also seen them use air chisels to get them off.. but it depends on the type of rim.. cuz some dont have the clearance for using that..

use an air hammer w/ a wide chisel bit, a few hits, it'll spin right off.
