I have 17x9 +20 offset with 225/45 tires and when i turn the steering wheel all the way I am hitting/rubbing the inside of the tire well, towards where the motor is at, Its quite hard to explain, also if I add a 10mm spacer would that help not rub on the inside and just get my fenders rolled? PM me if you want more info and could help me

I'm running 17x9+22 with 225/45 Star Specs up front with no spacers as of right now, and at full lock while drifting I just barely touch the inner wheel well (stock steering angle). I rub against the actual fender though a little bit. If you want to prevent it from rubbing, just take the wheel off, look for where the wheel rubs (you'll be able to tell), and beat the hell out of those spots with a hammer or something... And rolling your fenders is probably a must. Idk if height matters but I'm at this height with no problems.

Shoot me a PM or something if you need more clearance pics or whatever.

mine is kind of slow, its kind of annoying. is there any way to fix this to make it a lil faster?
does anyone know?

same with my a/c blower, my 97 corolla blows harder than my 240.

i was thinking about rewinding the motors? any electrician here?

i have the same issue... slow windows travel.... what i do is i rev it up abit when parked and the windows tend to go up a bit faster... im guess cuz of the 20yr old motors, they tend to wear down....

Might have to do with old wiring too. Older wires don't conduct as well. But you can also buy a remanufatured motor from a parts store or something.

can anyone confirm this is the S14 A/c Fan plug?


what would be the best way to hook up my own elec fan using this plug?
Thers only 2 wires off my Mishi elec fan I pan to use,..and Looks like 4 Pins on the OEM body Plug.

Does the OEM a/c fan use 2 speeds (fast/faster) depending on temp it see's? or how does it actually work?

The search function sucks on tapatalk so I'm just gonna ask.

I have a 95 abs auto car what are my options for a 5spd drive shaft? Do I have to use a abs driveshaft or can I use a non?

you have to use a abs shaft, abs shafts are shorter due to the extra length on the diff from the abs sensor

check out S13 S14 Manual drive shaft [Archive] - JDMCITY.COM bottom post has all the info you need on auto to manual drive shaft swaps

Here is a quick image I found:

Hope that helps you out

Yes, that is the a/c fan plug. From what I know, the stock a/c fan only has one speed.

Do you have the stock a/c fan? You could always cut the plug off of that, leave enough wire and solder to new fan. Is your new fan 2 speed? Make sure to do research to make sure the OEM fuse can handle the amp draw.

What fuel pressure do you guys run on SR's with 300ish HP?

Also, is the pilot bushing supposed to be greased?

Anyone? Help?

Also, is it necessary to run two O2 sensors? One of mine the wires are cut and I have no clue where they go, and the other is an AEM and is fine. The AEM is the second one. KA-T here.

Just got my redtop SR20DET running. 370s/S15 T28/stock maf. Wouldn't start because of a bad cas.

Now I have a problem of it cutting out/misfiring when it gets anywhere near boost. Revs fine in neutral until it hits about 0-1 psi of boost. Then it starts cutting up. Same as when trying to drive. It cuts out when it gets anywhere near boost.

Vacuum is at 21 hg and I've read that it is normally around 18-22 hg; so that seems fine and leads me to think that there are no vacuum leaks. Double checked all couplers and I don't think it's a boost leak. Adjusted the timing and got it to run real nice at idle; sounds very smooth, unlike the cam-like sound it had before.

Is it possible that it is the spark plugs? They are quite black. Would they cause such a big problem or a cut/misfire? If so, should i get NGK BRK7Es and what gap should I set them at? Thanks.

[JonathanPrem]

I need help with heater core hose on s13 sr20 into s14 chassis. Where does top and bottom hose connect into or does it matter.

[killer skittle]

I'm no mechanic but it sounds like your blowing you spark out. And they might be fouled out. Try replacing them

Yeah, that's what it seems to be. When I pulled them, they were black from carbon. I was recommended to use NGK BKR6E11s and gap them at .028. Anyone have an opinion on that?

[Vitzio240sx]

hi, I know this might sound stupid/noob/idiotic but just wanna know your opinion. im having my differential welded, do i remove it drain the fluid and clean it with brake parts cleaner before i take it to the shop and have it welded ? is it necessary for it to be nice and clean? or can i take it all greased up? thanks! =)

[Jonathong]

Im real tired of my apexi dual n1 style exhaust, has anyone ever cut the 2 canisters and just replaced it with 2 pipes, for that blast pipe look?

Not needed at all, so long as you have a narrowband output for the ECU

I'd check for a boost leak, and then make sure they are gapped to .025

Yes, you'll drain it, and then take it to them, where they will clean it and drain the rest and then weld it.
