New Products for S Chassis - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

bardabe · 05-18-2012, 11:46 AM

Being that there will never be enough parts for the Nissan S chassis, what kind of performance upgrades are you guys looking for that aren't currently available for the 240sx? We are looking to make new performance parts to make things easier for the DIY guys, we would like your input on things you need.

we are currently in the middle of revising the subframe braces, and making our own version of them something stronger and catchier than the "flat bar" that was available for a short time, but we need more idea on other things the consumers need now!

Step 1 is dont be a douchebag theif like john griff @ rpsport. that bastard stole $200 of mine! If you have enough interest you could make a shim height tool.

Stupid idea: Pre-made tubs.

Was thinking about this last night, someone should sell a kit consisting of left and right front tubs and a template showing the end user where to cut. At that point, they'd just weld 'em in.

Not sure what the market's like for this, I'd imagine there are more people out there like me who have limited fab capability at the same location as their car, but can find someone to weld the tubs in...

How about a custom radiator and condensor combo that tucks under the core support (like the Chase Bays one) but also allows for IC piping to pass around the rad for short piping, better transient response all while still retaining factory function of the pop up headlights for S13? I know it'd be expensive, but just an idea.

Matej · 05-18-2012, 12:35 PM

S13 SR20DET IACV block-off plate.

Kom3t · 05-18-2012, 12:36 PM

turbo2nr · 05-18-2012, 01:45 PM

diffusers , under body paneling, canards for various s-chassis bumpers, gt /doluck 350z style front fenders. Think Time Attack oriented styling for s-chassis.

snafupossum · 05-18-2012, 02:21 PM

Manual s14 window assemblies. Never have to worry about hunting down a over priced window amp again.

MrSanchez925 · 05-18-2012, 02:23 PM

Sun roof delete for an s13 ?

Matej · 05-18-2012, 02:27 PM

A pre-molded E-shapped silicone or rubber hose to connect these three outlets on an S13 SR.
Pretty please.

So I do not have to do this...

Kenzo · 05-18-2012, 02:29 PM

OEM SPEC CA18DET PARTS!!!!! Someone please make them so I can be comfortable keeping this little beast in my car.

bardabe · 05-18-2012, 02:48 PM

We Don't have access to silicone forming equipment, or Body Parts,

Sunroof Delete panel would be something we could make because it would be made out of Aluminum / Sheet metal. keep em coming guys!

This! I have an aftermarket sunroof and I don't feel like paying for an OEM roofskin from Nissan and the labor to remove and reinstall the windshields.

Lights, blinkers, full pump, dual fan setup, heater, and thats it! The basics to get people to the track, and keep the price under 600 bucks! Maybe im dreaming!
