Bumping for updates

[zomgsohc]

I wish every company had a thread like this for their new products! Looks sweet, guys!

[Vitzio240sx]

Bump. Any updates???

[cxracing]

got interrupted by a high profile project, lost a couple weeks of time. we should be able to resume next week and finish it.

[tapdeznutz]

subscribings for updates.

[cxracing]

sorry it took a while without updates, our R&D team got interrupted and worked on a few Landspeed car builds, they went well at Bonneville.

so back on track. we developed the oil pan and headers for the S14. fits very well, but very tight fit too.

we will have these sample made and will test the production in about 4 -5 weeks.

the development for the LS1 swap for S14 got most of the parts done. only thing that still need to work on is electric stuff.

so far these are the parts have been done:

Engine mount
Tranny Mount
Driveshaft
Headers
Oil Pan
Radiator Kit

You guys have had that red s14 forever haha! Looks nice but is that oilpan a mockup? Hoping the final product will be thick and STEEL.

the headers and oilpan are mockup, none working parts. they are being made now with complete working ones, once we have all parts made, we will test fit them.

that S14 will be going through a major facelift after the developments are done.

When you said electronic adapter box, would that mean its basically a plug n play kit at point?

the goal is to make it very simple and easy. what form of the final products, we have not decided yet. but should be something like a plug and play kit or a terminal box or something that can be done easily with simple instruction.

I hope you offer a different pan for a dry sump setup option. I think that may be more reasonable for some of hte more extreme drift setups and especially track oriented setups.. dont want no engine kabooms and they can be common with these motors in race situations... dry sump is a must in my opinion for the type of Gs I pull...

besides having baffles, our oil pan also has trap doors built in. this should be ok for most of the applications. for pro drift or racing applications, you can still add a dry sump system, just cut and remove the baffles and trap doors and make the pan wide open.

but honestly, a dry sump costs a few $K, not an affordable solution for most of the people. an accusump system, combined with our oil pan would be more practical and costs affective

Amazing work!!

[snafupossum]

Yay for more progress!

[DAG]

the oil pan needs to connect to the trans for structural suppot. its very important. great fab skills tho

[240dream]

my ka-t setup was fun but this priced kit will turn alot of poeple to this swap.hoping for more updates

[bova17]

This stuff looks awesome

[nismoninjagtr]

You all should consider doing VK56 AND VQ35/37 swap kits or at least mounts w/accessorie brakets, we need more variety options...

[DAG]

id be willing to by one of these pans but theres no way for it to "support" the trans, and i keep seeing stuff on forums and books that the pans do support the trans to motor fitment. but i have seen your style of pan in a hot rod so idk.
you have great fab skills and these parts look very good

Hey guys, here's a question for you,

Will you be able to mate Z33 6 speed to an LS1, make an adapter plate, make sure clutch, and flywheel and all that works as well? It's been done with a Z32 tranny, but its only 5 speed and real old now.
Because it seems like its way easier to find and LSx engine compared to T56 tranny, Z33 6 speeds are plenty strong and like 1/3 of a price of a T56.
Think about it, Ill be the first one to order that kit.

[Razi]

Isn't the gearing crazy short on the Z33 6 speeds?

I'd just change the final.

[kouki4life]

Will you guys be selling some of these swap parts individually? I already have some swap parts and would be interested in the oil pan, if the price was right.

[mikevskater]

any updates on the progress/ prices at this point?

Will definitely be looking into this kit come spring time!

[stayclassy]

bump for some progress

[BlacknboostedS13]

Gross. lol

[rwtf]

Lmao wtf!! Lololol.

[SnakeKack]

There was more hair in the 80's porn.

[DAG]

any more info on you guys ls1 240sx oil pan? id be a buyer! or a test mule?

[cxracing]

Sorry we have been so busy and so many projects, got some delay on making the production samples.

we finally got the test samples in and tested fitment. EVERYTHING works like a champ, drops in and fits perfectly. here are some pictures (we developed this kit on a S14 chassis, 1st tested on a S13, works, we will test it on the S14, but we believe the kit will fit both):

Dropping the LS1 motor in a S13:


Oil Pan Fits, has clearance all around. Does NOT need for a sway bar spacer or cut cross member. the motor just sits perfectly in the S13 chassis!!

Forgot to add a oil drain plug, will have it on production run.
