Thread: Part 2. I think I'm doing it right this time.

Good call on avoiding the Nismo studs. I've personally sheered maybe a dozen in the past.

Picked up the new daily more pics sometime next week or so.


93 SE-R
300zx maf
turbo injectors (not what sure size or from what car)
SR20VE
Spec clutch
lsd trans (supposedly from a b14)

My plans are to just take care of maintenance & get a good tune

nice build bro. gl.

Decided to give her a surface detail & wash to see where see stands for now.

Before


After






Tsuru conversion in 2016 if the 240 permits


Interior shots (after cleaning forgot to take before shots)








Will be giving the engine a nice cleaning probably in spring as we're finally getting the winter cold days

where in NY?

Long Island Nassau county

kool, i work in valley stream nassau county. love it see it in person one day

Yea man definitely, hopefully everything should be worthy enough to take it to spring nationals & local meets

Some goodies coming soon:

ASP Header (don't know the specs but it was on a 300whp+ n/a VE) & N1 Cams
VRS 3" Exhaust in the future most likely



N60 Maf in & N62 out !




Old ECU out & JWT (370cc, N1 cams, N60 maf, 93oct) ECU in for now till I go Nismotronic

^
This also helped my 1800rpm idle issue for now but starts to break up around 5500rpm, Tune coming soon !

Why not do some maintenance on this 50 Degree weather day




Also semi fixed my no heat issue, the temp gauge use to go really low as I would drive in these 15-30 degree nights, So checked online replaced the t-stat with an oem one, Coolant flush, Next I will be replacing the sensor. As now the heat works well its not HOT but more than enough to keep me warm or take off a jacket inside but it seems not up to par but it's getting warmer so not so much of a concern

Hey guys needed some motivation, so I thought i'll update you guys with the s13 project.

Sold the b13 & all it's parts due to rust taking over just my luck with B CHASSIS... Hopefully i'll get one again in a year or two or just might move to honda & their Kseries world.

Just been collecting the final parts such as fluids, lug nuts, suspension arms, brakes etc...

Missed out on a brand new genuine 180sx tail light set with key So I kind of had an impulse buy to start my 180sx conversion hence why I have an genuine 180sx front bumper now. (NOT INSTALLED)



Also my fortune auto 510 coilovers arrived after 6 weeks 12K(F) & 10K(R) NO swift springs for now as when I complete the engine swap & add aero then I will upgrade to their 510 2-way dreadnaught series

P2M rear rotors (these were the only brand I could find sepcifically for s-chassis with a rear z32 break conversion.) I know I could of went oem but I wanted a little performance so I can practice with this car. I will upgrade to either GIRODISC or DBA 2 piece rotors in the future



Also missed out on some OEM 180sx front seats so opted out for s14 seats (temporary) Will get Recaro SPG or Sparco EVO I OR II whichever fits my 5'6 self the best & lightest

& cleaned & prepped the interior for some stitch welding, still have to clear out residue on the rear wheel arches. Just been kind of lazy since a roll cage will get done most likely around winter & don't want to deal with these super tedious task in 90 degree weather lol









Bought some tein inner tie rods & some GKTech outers





R32 GTR rear diff cover with cooling fins ( bought this instead of an oem s14 since I'm doing an s13-s14 rear subframe swap. This should help keep the diff a lil bit cooler)


Also have miscellaneous maintenacne items not pictured. High & low pressure power steering lines, new steering rack boots, waterpump & oem thermostat. Just the basics to ensure the car SHOULD be okay to practice at local events with.

Purchased a cometic head gasket but to get installed but everyone keeps steering away of doing it & i don't trust myself doing that big of a job, so hopefully a coolant flush & simple easy to replace parts fixes my no heat & hotter than usual temps
