Although, a 3" cat with stock everything else would be silly, but I doubt that's the case here.

for a while I was running 3" downpipe -> 2.5" cat -> 3" exhaust, and it was a little tricky to get it to seal properly.

Thats what I would think. But apparently people dont care about exhaust leaks.

yea sorry forgot to put in the little details.... i have a stock down pipe connected to a 3in test pipe which is connected to 3in isis straight pipes. the only reason im looking into a cat is because i need to pass my emission testing in a couple weeks

Wait, take a breath. What exactly is happening? Elaborate on "issues with idling?" Saying just that is too vague for any help.

Like I turn on the car for a second its good then it just goes down to like 500 then 200 like that constantly but wen I'm driving it it runs good idk wat else it could be

[srstan]

^ you really need to learn how to use periods in your posts. You used one and it was mid sentence. it sounds like you might have a vacuum leak.

Anyone know a good place in the irvine/Anaheim/long beach area to get your wheels powdercoated? I found a place called americoat in orange, they charge 65 a wheel, can anyone vouch for them?

I know of the Chasebays Tucked Radiator kit for S14, but has anybody else done it before not using this kit? Possibly there is a stock cars radiator out there that fits under the rad support?

[silver04rsx]

Can I get a mod to change my name to Briggs? I dont own a silver04rsx anymore...

[budding240]

Nooby question here, but how do you tell which front coilover is driver side and passenger side for s13? I just got some coils and new to installation. They aren't marked. Thanks

I have looked into the same thing. but didnt go any further than looking. Measure the area you want to fill, go to mishimoto's website and find the closest size radiator you can. I believe the RSX was the closest to what i found for a s13 that has the same hose outlet locations.

Look at the direction your brake line brackets are facing when you take the old ones off. Also the should be a L and R somewhere on the shock itself to tell you the side.
Btw brake line bracket should be pointing towards the rear.

I'm putting in a new t28 s15 turbo into my black top sr20det...and i figure since i have everything out why not get a new turbo elbow. Looking for some recommendations on good turbo elbows. I was looking at a trust turbo elbow. Any ideas.

[Irresistible]

What gauge wire does the S14 fender harness use? If it matters it's a '96. My tire ate through the harness because I guess it wasn't pulled up good enough, and I need to replace wires... Please and thank you.

[jdmjap808]

I need help with setting my aem true boost gauge for a redtop with minor mods. Ive looked all over the web and i cant find a good setting for a t25 setup.
i want to run 12 psi dd but it spikes to 18+psi and it freaks me out. Any true boost users out there can help me out PLEASE!!!

[SmokeCircle]

Would it be straight to run only two of the hex bolts used in the camber plates for front coilovers?Im running PSM comp coilovers if that matters. I need to do this only until i can get s14 LCAs.

Trust/Greddy Turbo outlet is the way to go. Just make sure you use high temp anti sieze on the threads when isntalling it, in the even you ened to take it apart.

18 maybe? Just clip a piece off, take it to the store, compare size, and buy a roll of it then.

It's not proper nor right, but it should be ok. Just check frequently to make sure they aren't moving.

RSX = Honda integra everywhere else in the world. DC5 chassis code.

I'm Ditching the Instant Gentleman Zenki Aero on my S14 and later on Planning Kouki Aero within the year but Not quite ready yet.

I need a Bumper retainer Badly and Wondering will the Kouki S14 one Work decent for now to support my Zenki OEM bumper untill I get the rest of the Aero to go Full Kouki?
I need to support my bumper with Something because Mines Gone on the car I bought. I don't want to have to buy a Zenki Support when I'm going Kouki later.

Anybody ever seen a 240 with a louvered hood? I've seen datsuns with them, think it might be cool.

i'm upgrading to j30 front brakes and i know all j30s have abs but it connects differently than my s13 with abs. so my question is: can you put j30 brakes on an abs equipped s13 and is there anything different i have to do to make it work?

If the plugs are different, just splice it into the S13 setup and go from there.
