yeah but 240's well... they kinda suck. supras on the other hand, suck much less.

i think the 240's are good, basic, tin cans. i have an sc too, its really strong and well built.. but much heavier.

i am curious what your car weighs. put it on the scales. guaranteed over 3k, my guestimation.

cool project though, must be fun.

as a fellow 2JZ S13 person.

i've had mine on the scales S13 coupe,base model 98% full interior (no back seat, but a piece of sheet metal and carpet over it, and a bolt in cage, no spare tire, but a 250 piece tool set and some oil/fluids/etc and it weighed at like 28XX on a grain scale (not sure how accurate those are on lighter weights) Thats with a 2JZGTE AUTOMATIC single turbo.

that setup is getting put into another s13 coupe this one with full power options and will get weighed with full interior i'll post up the weight when its done.

[redhatchy92]

my coupe all stock se model full weight, sunroof, and a trunk full of crap and it weight in at 2710. 2700lb with a 220+ naturally aspirated engine sounds like a hole lot of fun

[niteridaz503]

damn lovin the build, gotta show coupe love

[S14kouki_10]

What exhaust you got there?

[s14pit]

I have a lot of camber because of the lack of toe rods when I camber my wheels out the toe goes so far out the stock arms cant compensate.

The exhaust was done by future fab here in phoenix.

Need toe rods for the rear
rear dent wont come out from the fender pull
fender alignment gets messed up from when I go to drift events at full lock my tire hits the fender at times.

The car is no show car it was put together to look half good and take to the track.

[s14pit]

Here is a pick of my deep angle kit modified knuckles and boxed control arms and steering rack tie rod spacer. way better than washers

[HPKMotorsports3]

great work man... my friend and i just finished his fully built 2j but thats in a mk4 but still love those engines though ill take an rb over that anyday

[A54]

Nice project...

[Melo_speed]

What is the point of tubs? sorry for the noob question.

By the way car is looking sweet , just needs boost then your golden.

2jz in a s13 is what i plan to do aswell in my near future.

Good luck with the build bro, now you just need vids of that n/a doing work.

[s14pit]

I started having problems with my wheel hitting the body after I did the knuckles and s14 control arms thats why I had the tubs done.

The next drift event is this month hope to have some vids from that.

[bc.]

i am a fan

How did you get your hands on the Ruckus Racing mount kit? Also, can you elaborate a bit more as far as what you did with the wiring? I'm gathering my list of goodies for when my tax return comes in =D

Thanks!

That actually made me laugh, but on a serious note is it for if u want to run wider wheels and tires up front?.....or is it so that the car can be lower up front.

[Miker]

IMO

raise the rear a tad and space that shit out.

otherwise awesome.

[s14pit]

I dont need spacers I need toe rods the camber is way to neg. and stock toe rods wont allow me to bring the toe in enough when I camber the wheels out.

I am Running 18's in the back and 17's up front Work cr kei's both with the widest and lowest offset offered in a 17 and 18

They were "absorbed" by Zerolift.

[DavidBaustert]

I work for the company who originally designed the Ruckus mounts. I have since re designed them and they will be up for sale in the near future once they come back from the laser cutter and we get them welded up.

[s14pit]

These mount really put the motor in a good location it has it about a 1/4 from the firewall and fit the stock subframe really good.

[s14pit]

Waiting on rear arms so I can get my alignment into the proper specs I want I just hope the pull in the back is enough.

[bllabong89]

[s14pit]
