SR

what up im dave my 89 s13 with a s13 sr20det rwd is pouring out white smoke and has a strong smell of gas. Also the car has trouble running and has a boost leak. this car was handed to me after my uncle died cuz it was his car. i assumed that it was the head gasket because he had a spare sr head. so after i found that i took it to get ported & polished and the had bc springs and retainers put in. that was back in the spring the cars been parked up since he died i had it towed to my house and its been tarpped up since. i took the tarp off today to play with it a lil bit and started to think maybe its not the head gasket ????????????????? he also had a top feed fuel rail with injectors in it soooooooooo maybe it has a bad injector? idk but im getting ready to buy a Nissan head gasket kit to drop the new head on but if its something dumb that might be a easy fix i rather do that . like i said i have a huge boost leak going to my inter cooler. by huge i mean the exhaust manifold melted a nice size hold in a rubber hose coming off my turbo idk if that has something to do with this or not. im really learning as im going but any info would help at this point thanks

Hey, all. I just picked up a meticulously kept, bone-stock 85 z31 stick and thought I should learn more about this car. Here's hoping I'm in the right place, I passed up on a 93 240 coupe that was beat on in favor of this, which was apparently babied by the 2 previous owners.

'Sup everybody. Name's Chad and I'm a big Nissan fanboy. Have owned several Z's over the years and still building my current one. Always been interested in the S-chassis and recently drove as a back up driver on my brother-in-law's 24 Hours of Lemon's team in a '91 240 and fell in love. Now looking to purchase one for myself and build a track-dedicated vehicle...and maybe stick a license plate on it as well...

Hi, my name is Vik. I just recently bought a 98 pearl white 240sx (Kouki) for my DD. I'm not new to the nissan crowd, i've been on my350z for some time now. I also own a 07 350z, it's the track toy. Currently waiting for my s14 sr20 to arrive from zero lift. Also have all the supporting mods awaiting the engine so I can push 350whp all day long.

I'm also on www.zclubofflorida.net under the same name.

Well shit, now I feel dumb for the intro thread I made in te NW section.

Name's Jeff, 3 months from turning 21, about to work 2 jobs and finish my HS diploma online (partied too long, learned too late how to priorities)

Owned an MR2 turbo, now in the market for something else. I loved my car and I'm sad I no longer have it but that's life.

Originally wanted to get an s13 but it seems as though I will be purchasing a Z31 next week. I've noticed most people hate on Z31's but I say "Hater's gonna hate" to all. I am mostly getting for its price, and I need a DD.

From zerolift you say . Does that mean u r from the Michigan, Indiana , Ohio area ? U plan on attending drift. Indy or Mdu events ? I love my kouki . But why an sr20 swap ? The ka24det is a better set up . Sr20 are lame as Fuck .

I'm in the Tampa bay area. And I'm not into drifting, I'm more into auto x and road racing. Sr20 is light and what the car was made for. Also a more reliable choice.
