The SOHC cluster did the same exact thing. I get what you mean though. Thanks, but i found this video in youtube that makes sense why my cluster isn't working. Now i need to try it out.

After looking at my replacement front fenders and the ones currently on the car, it looks like I'll need more of the bolts and clips that fasten everything together.
Anybody know where I can get more of those?

Which chassis, guy? s13 or s14?

There are wheel fitment threads all over.

HC GPM is 1.5000 (my car had a reading of 5.9348 )
and for CO GPM is 15.000 ( my car had a reading of 54.2024) what could be wrong with my car how can i check whats wrong with it and how can i fix it so it will pass emissions . note that i have a full exhaust sytem on it headers and exhaust , bigger cams and pistons and a new ecu for the cams and pistons .

gti-r intake manifold on s13 engine worth it?

GL Chrillz · 05-06-2012, 02:19 PM

well, I have a s13 sr and it smells like its running hot/burning something. but if i turn my fan on for like 15-30 seconds or whatever, the smell dies down. i can't see my temp (i cut the sensor wire to extend it and it doesn't work now for some reason) but before that, it never went above 170. I have no front bumper on, so its getting plenty of air and i have dual electric fans. I don't think there's any smoke. and I was down to about half way with my oil so i'm thinking it may be burning oil?

alonroz · 05-06-2012, 02:36 PM

What will i need in order to run 18X9 +35 fronts and 18X10 +38 Rears on an S-14?
Spacers? Fender Flares? and would it look funny on an s14 with no aero?
thanks!

chiboy002 · 05-06-2012, 10:19 PM

on the z32 ebrake set up
does the cable feed into th ebacking plate from the front of the back (of the car)

reason i ask is cause previous owner kindly labeled everything but its confusing the shit out of me. Passenger side backing plate says (L) on it, along with all of its corresponding parts so i'm confused as to if it should be on the LEFT side of car (drivers)

Is water cooling the turbo (T25/T28) on an SR necessary?

Sure, if you want the seals to last.

If using the S14 water neck on an S13 SR, can I just get the whole S14 turbo line kit, or will I need to mix & match any of the lines?

And if indeed I do attempt to run it without the water lines, can the water feed on the block be plugged, or does it need to be looped into the water neck still?

Jonathong · 05-06-2012, 11:34 PM

For those of you who did the kouki conversion to their zenki using the kouki retainer on the zenki bumper support, I have a question. Did y'all modify the retainer to fit the zenki bumper support?

You will need the S14 line kit. Loop, block... doesn't matter.

theriver43 · 05-07-2012, 11:23 AM

I've posted this question in here before but I'd like to get some new eyes on the problem.
I have s14 KAT enthalpy, 740cc, z32 maf, tial 38 .5bar, ssqv. On anything past 75% throttle after it reaches 7psi, the motor (boost included) "fluctuates" (see videos). There is a happy median with the throttle where it doesnt fluctuate but its around 3/4 throttle. You can hear the fluctuation of the motor in the videos though it's only of my boost guage. I've removed all the emissions from the intake and just installed a new CXracing intercooler. I thought it was a vacuum/boost leak but none of that has helped. Any ideas on what it could be? Perhaps a tear in my diahpgragm?

are you running a cat? if so, was it fully warmed? cat's reduce HC and CO. Or maybe you are running too rich.

sil80d · 05-07-2012, 03:05 PM

Does anyone know if the q45 rear hubs are the type that act as a spacer for the ebrake guide pin or if they are s14 style. I currently have z32 rear brakes and hubs. ( the style that don't act as a spacer) but would like to swap to q45 hubs and diff. I don't want to change my ebrake set up though.

Would it be possible to 'air cool' the turbo by running a vacuum through the water inlet/outlet? Or are these just ramblings of a madman?

Boost_Fiend · 05-07-2012, 06:21 PM

How much do you guys think this car is worth? 76,000 original miles. Really clean. Everything works. Interior is mint. Cleanest vert i've ever seen.

zooopreme · 05-07-2012, 06:24 PM

^3,000 at most. At least, that's the most that I would realistically pay for a clean S-Chassis.

But you could look for no more than 4,000.

I was thinking I could get at least 4k. I've seen this sell on ebay for 5k easy.

Okay? Why would you even ask a question?

I said realistically meaning "of the real world" meaning a person with the slightest hint of intelligence wouldn't pay more than 3,500 for a convertible.

Stay flossy, Florida.
