From my original post

"Hi

I own an s14, and have purchased 17X9 +18 wheels. My question is would 245/45 tyres fit with just rolled guards? I'd like camber settings up front to be no more than -2 degrees or so and the rear no more than -1

thanks "

It wont be too low looking at going a bit above the tyre

Hey guys. Previous owner cut the head unit harness out of my S13. I went to the junkyard and snagged a pigtail. I soldered everything color for color, but the chassis side has a left over black wire, pigtail does not. Anyone know what this is for or what I should do with it? Thanks

codyace · 08-28-2011, 09:06 AM

It's probably a ground, so connect it to a metal spot on the dash.

titopr06 · 08-28-2011, 10:44 AM

will z32 front brake pads work for r33 calipers?
thanks for any help!

killer240 · 08-28-2011, 12:44 PM

i have an S13 with S15 lights. on the driver side everything works but the signal light stays on all the time and when i put it on high beam the low beam stays on with the high beam but low beam kinda dies a lil. for the passenger side nothing works but the parking light.

is this just some ground issue?

Try this again...

da man · 08-28-2011, 04:17 PM

so after about 4 or 5 hours of searching i still have a few question. i have a 93 ka n/a auto and i want more low end power and it looks like to me, please tell me if I’m wrong, that i need to go with the 248/232 cam swap. now i know i have to do the "3 or 4" tooth ccw on the intake side (248 cam) but do i just install the other one straight up (dot to dot) or what?

daftphunk · 08-29-2011, 09:10 PM

Edit: nvm fixed it!

Can someone shed some light on this please?

***S14DB*** · 08-29-2011, 11:52 PM

Stock rear brakes? How much pad life do you have left?

deolio · 08-30-2011, 01:02 PM

so an lsd that would work in a z32 tt would work in a q45 right?

BlackZenkiS14 · 08-30-2011, 01:21 PM

So I've got a stock block S13 Blacktop SR, 740cc Injectors, Walbro 255LPH fuel pump, S14 T28 turbo, Z32 MAF, all supporting bolt-ons, and a greddy-style intake manifold.
If I get a JWT ECU tune for my setup, how much boost can I run safely?
And how much power can I make, roughly?

iveexcaped3 · 08-30-2011, 02:23 PM

On the Lexus sc400 what are they using for coil overs? Supra mk3?

MK4 coilovers.

yellowxhoodie · 08-30-2011, 07:27 PM

Zenki dudes, im putting an aftermarket HU in my 95 SE. It powers on but i cant get sound out of any of the speakers, i know it has to do with the factory amp, and i dont have the time to run new wires to bypass it. Anyone know what color wire i need to hook up to get it to work? Im using an aftermarket harness for the radio.

All i have left on the radio harness is the blue/white wire labeled system remote control.

The aftermarket harness has blue/white, blue, and orange left.

I'm not sure that would work. I know to fit a Q45 diff in an S-chassis you need the driver side axle from a TT Z32 and a driver side axle from a Q45. That kind of implies they aren't all the same.

Just buy r33 pads they arent that difficult to find (re: google)

FYI

Z32 rebuild kits will not work
Neither will the rotors

Wondering this also, I have not been able to find Porterfield R4S pads for the R33. Any ideas?

I'd get Altima fans or Taurus fans, or be be prepared to spend big bucks on an aftermarket fan capable of keeping it cool in single 12" form.

You'd be able to max that turbo out for sure...probably 265-285 whp
