[QUOTE=slam126,Aug 28 2006, 06:46 AM] So is there a place to bolt back down the fuse box or is it hanging loose?

Sam,

Spoon, J's, NRG, 5zigen, etc are pretty much the same. Just a rebadge.
You need to take, knock or pry off the bracket where you mount the fuse box to. It is the bracket next to the strut mount.

As for clearing issue, you need to really pull up and tie wrap a/c to the heater line or else it will rub the a/c line and the etd. If it rub you probably will not get the full effect.

After you remove the old bracket, there is no where you can mount the fuse box to. It is pretty much loose.

Unless you know someone that is willing to fabricate you a custom bracket so that you will not have any rubbing, removing the bracket or loose fuse box. Also you

Hope this helps!
i did all of the above. good set of details brian!



as for the empty hole for that fuse box. i zipped tied it to my j's strutbar combo. actually the j's strutbar combo has a hole for that. but it is an enlarged hole.

Thoughts. Love the way the ETD feels. Throttle response seems to be some much more crisp. Makes it a lot easier to control the rotation of the rear end. Shifts feel smoother and the annoying shaking of the shifter is gone.



Definitely a nice to have.

hmm this is a good mod. jus finished installing the ETD. throttle response is crisper due to less slack in the whole drive train cause from the soft engine mounts. also when rolling down from xx mph in first to a rolling idle in gear there is less jerk. a lot less jerk.

good buy with a good price!
