I have a similar bracket, I believe I got it at a yellow hat in japan. Try rhdjapan.com (they take parts requests if they don't have it in stock).

I'm trying to find out who makes/made these wheels and what they're called. They kinda resemble the Mercedes-Benz 5-spoke AMG rims
(pic for reference)

Coincidentally, I have them on my S14 in Gran Turismo 4 (but in the game they're concave and...6-lug?

So I did a little research and found similar ones on a BMW from some HellaGhey meet

So far the only name I've been able to come up with is "Star Form" wheels, but Google didn't yield much information regarding them. If anyone knows what these are (or a comparable design), particularly the ones in the game, I would greatly appreciate it.

Hey guys quick question, I need to know which vacuum hose is hooked to the FPR on the s13 SR20DET

Current my set up is:

Top left nipple at the throttle is for my BOV and boost gauge

Top right is going to the canister

Bottom of the throttle going to the canister

I've been reading and see people hooked up it to the top left where the BOV and boost gauge is. However on another website they have theirs hooked up to the top right. I'm confused I just want my car to run safely please help

How did the aluminum part held up. I'm thinking about welding stock with polyuretane bushing on that heim anyway.

What do you do with the car? Is it track based, or is it a street car that sees track once a year?

Try stabbing it a little more to the left or right when you initially put it in. In the grand scheme of things, so long as you can get 15* on the timing gun, it makes zero difference where it is adjustment wise

Small question. No way in he'll was I Gona make a thread for this...

The actual wheels you have in the game are for a Dodge Viper.

I suck at comprehending this diagram. Can someone tell me which are the important bolts to hold the bellhousing to the engine!?

omgRWDgoodness! · 05-24-2011, 09:44 PM

↑ You need part #s 32010F (x4), and 32010FA (x1).

codyace · 05-24-2011, 09:45 PM

Truthfully the more the better...no reason not to put them all in. With that in mind though, the most important ones are all of the ones that engage the back of the engine block itself...so essentially the upper half of the bolts

The car is dd//track. Car does see a good couple events a year. And I do spirited drive more often now

I used to run on 180brakes PMU Hc titian pads. I really loved those.

I don't mind changing pads before events but thatching of stupid I know there is a pad out there that would be great for both and that can handle a good auto x event// drft. I can get the image c2 for 75$.

I've never even heard of Image c2, so that fact alone makes me not even consider their stuff. At 75 dollars for a set, I can't see them being that good.

I am a personal fan of Carbotech brakes. With what you described you'd probably be best with an Panther+ (80% street/20%track) or a Xp10 (50/50) compound. If you want some hardcore stuff, check out the XP12's.

lg54 · 05-24-2011, 11:02 PM

Does it hurt an engine running it without coil pack cover? overheat or something?

Im getting the pads for 75% off haha! I know that the pads are not sold here only in Japan, they are a track pad that can be used on the street, I know drifters in Japan use them also for autox. But I was concisering carbotechs. Do they hurt the wallet? I am willing to pay 120-150 for pads.
Like I said before, I don't care about brand I just want to know they are good. Cheapest place you know to get carbotechs?

While I have nothing against the japanese stuff, I typically try to stay away from them as most information about them is limited at best. C2 may make a great pad, but with so many decent American made pads, I'd rather stick to proven stuff from Carbotech/Hawk/etc etc.

I personally just buy the pads directly from carbotech...can't say I've ever really shopped around for them, as it's easy to call/get their opinions/have it shipped same day. (Plus they are east coast which rocks for me hhehe)

Check this link, and go from there: Carbotech Performance Brakes: Products-Nissan Brake Pads & Shoes

To me, it seems like the Panther+(AX6) compound would work best, but if you're looking for something a little more track based, look at the XP10. I personally run XP12 and will admit they are def a track pad.

I have a full set of teardrops, one is on the car in this pic:

They are all painted the same, but the paint has become pretty haggard. I want to refinish them cheaply and put them back on the car for the time being. Should I try to polish them or paint them and what color should I go with for paint? I was thinking the gunmetal dupont wheel paint

*hOngsterr* · 05-25-2011, 11:02 AM

whats that green box serve for the s13 located on the driver side in the engine bay.
