I have made some research on Ebay , and found these parts cheap:

Billet Radiator Cap

OBX camber kit

Underdrive pulley

Short-shifter

Clutch

Headers

Can i order them to my K8 ?
Are they any good ?
And will i be able to put them myself ?

I have the obx camber bolts on my mx3. They work good and you can install them yourself, but you will need a shop to adjust them to the right spec once they are installed. You get what you pay for with these, but they work just fine.

but since you have them, it's easy to give me this answer :
Really, what do they do ?

Maybe it's just me, but I thought all radiator caps were the same except for the ones that release the pressure before you open it but I don't think that's the one in your picture...

Anyways I prefer the pacesetter short shifter over the B&M style (like in your pic)... The B&M just wasn't short enough for me!

The OBX camber bolts are a must IMO if your car is lowered! (Unless you have camber plates) For everyday driving you don't really need extra negative camber and you will go through tires faster... These bolts basically give you some adjustment to the camber by using the elliptical portion of the bolt to move the strut in or out.

Those headers look pretty standard issue but I am not sure if they bolt direct to the k8.... the EGR is coming off the front headers... Not sure about those specifically. I know on my klze I have ss autochrome headers and some of the exhaust had to be cut (about 6 inches) and the cat moved back.

thanks mooneggs

The camber kit does what i planned ...
The radiator cap is something i do not understand the work method
The short-shifter , it does remove at least some of the throw and it has a gear lever that screws in it, instead of little bolts like mine that go loose in a couple of months
The headers i like the idea

How about the underdrive pulley ? Will it make the K8 climb the rpm scale faster ?
And what about the F1 clutch ? Mine is a battered OEM

will this improve my clutch stall ?
