NB suspension screws up stock Greddy plumbing -- alternatives?
A few months ago I put NB suspension on my 91, which I thought was a good idea. More shock travel is awesome, though unfortunately the mounts stick up into the engine bay and one directly obstructs where the AFM should be with the Greddy kit. ****.
So I saw how a couple of you relocated the AFM to right on the turbo inlet, which doesn't look like it would fit for me... though maybe Stripes' pipes would, since I want to do an IC anyway. Could someone using those pipes give me a good picture of how the AFM sits? Has anyone relocated the AFM without having to re-buy all the greddy plumbing?

I had the same issue when I put a 99 sport suspension into mine. Used that opportunity to run the AFM straight off the front of the turbo and "adjust" some of the other piping. It's a tight fit and you may need a different air filter, but it's definitely possible. IIRC, I used a smaller K&N filter that angled down a little bit. I posted a thread a long time ago about it, but can't find it as I think posts over a certain time were pruned.

How did you fabricate that intake of yours, to fit around the 99 suspension? I went to the hardware store yesterday to scope out some PVC, but nothing looks like it would fit, haha.
