Alright,

so here is where i am at.

CAI probably won't be done by this weekend, so i have checked with Supa, and he has said that the standard airbox will be fine.

Also, the intake manifold gasket arrived, but doesn't fit the SC plenum, so plan B is to make the gasket out of gasket paper and hylomar spray.

and I now have new O-rings for TRD low temp thermostat.

I am sooooo excited!!! :yahoo: B)

how does the gasket not fit?? Did the wrong gasket get ordered?

hey CHA54,

the gasket i ordered must have been the wrong one, but that's not on the account of my fault, since i had asked specifically for the 03' Corolla gasket...

i am unsure if it 'would' fit on the engine intake ports, but it is not the size to fit on the SC plenum, its just too big on either side, and doesn't fit the outline of the plenum (if that makes sense) :o

So plan B is the Gasket paper, which will be fine :unsure:

Does the gasket match up with the inlet ports (or is slightly bigger) and the stud bolts? Cause that's what matters. It doesn't matter if it stick out around the edges and you can see it...

no, doesn't line up with stud bolts, only 2 line up max... dodgy :unsure:

Gasket paper FTW!!

sounds like they've definately sold you the wrong part, unfortunate as the genuine gaskets are the best you can get.

Hi Evo,

sorry for not getting back to you, I have been away for a few days. I'll try and get the gasket for you this weekend.
