I got to install one of these last night. I'm sure the car owner can post some pictures of the unit installed.
Really didn't run into any serious issues with the install. Mounting brackets were well designed, and fit snugly in the cooler. Everything lined up to the chassis no problem (MY 2003). Lines looked good, and everything was tight. The brackets for holding the lines where it comes into the engine bay was a nice touch. Everything seemed quality. No leaks on startup.
However, the lines were a little longer than I expected. I think this is because it was designed with the stock airbox in mind, so with a cold air intake there's not a need for long lines. It's going to take a little creative engineering to secure them away from touching anything, especially the wiring loom that run behind the front cross member, but its not a huge issue. Only thing I could think of this morning was that the Mocal plate should be oriented different than we installed it, we have the cooler lines facing the ground.
Nice kit guys

Do you have any details about the rear brake kit? Do you have a price? The rotor dimensions in one pic say 314mm x 20mm, is that correct? What rear caliper you using, rx7? Definitely very interested but slightly annoyed I didn't see this earlier.. Details please!

There's a JDM "kit" that was in the "cheap BBK" thread that uses an rx7 spirit R rotor and rx7 rear caliper w/ hardware. Of course it comes from japan so a few brackets and hardware were $500 shipped, and the rotors have to come from japan so I ordered the Urge kit. It kept the parking brake w/ a simple adapter. Only slight downside is it shifts brake bias to the front (it uses a smaller diameter piston), but not too much that it can probably be addressed by pad compound.

(for reference the picture above is our rear brake kit for the FD, but the S2k setup is pretty similar). To give a quick teaser, the brakes are directional vented 314x20mm, and yes, it retains the e-brake!

We now offer inline sensor adapters for 1/8" NPT sensors (-10in/out). Please contact us if you'd like to add one to your setup for temp or pressure monitoring. This is an easy option for those that do not want to bother tapping the included filter-pedestal plate.
The cooler kits are currently on sale through the end of the month!

(we've still got to add that product option). These are -10AN adapters which allow 1/8NPT sensor to be installed

Is there an option to add 2 sensor inputs?
If so how do I add that to my order.
