Quick question while im doing my research. Planning on running a 12" Fi SSD subwoofer in my s13 hatch, replaced the back seat with carpet/mdf panel and Ive got the privacy cover installed, in my shoes would you position the sub firing towards the dashboard, or towards the taillights? Im reading up on cancellation waves and placement but its between those two and at 800 watts rms im not sure there would be a huge difference for a decent sealed daily sub. Thoughts appreciated. Thanks

meh, don't believe you got those struts on...took ya too long! Prove it with photos

really though, if you haven't replaced the bushings, get the Energy Suspension KIT, the entire kit, do all of them...HUGE difference

...now if I can just get rid of that chirping sound I keep hearing in the rear end when I take off and shift...

Has anyone ever heard of this, tried searching on the web but came across some that said they were 1pc but were actually 2pc, headlight/corner light, was looking for headlight/corner light together into one like the skyline headlight...anyone know if the skyline headlights, r34 would work on this, i know its a dumb question, or do you need to modify it.

rabies · 04-12-2013, 11:35 AM

is there a "shift knob" pic thread or steering wheel pic thread?

xoxide · 04-12-2013, 12:17 PM

Anyone have any info on stitch wheels? I have a pair of stitch mesh wheels and I either want to sell them or find another pair. Google didn't really turn up any information.

s14classified · 04-12-2013, 04:28 PM

My red top sr drops idel when I slow down or whenever the rpms r comming down due to not giving it gas.. try to research it and found ppl talking abt cleaning the AVI.. but haven't found any clear answer.. so if one of the superiors could please direct me to a proper informational page or give me any insight.

Yes sir.....

s14classified · 04-12-2013, 04:54 PM

Should it be tuned accordingly? Actually I don't really care for the bov going off every 3 to 4 seconds. What do u recon?

e1_griego · 04-12-2013, 05:01 PM

Recirculate it back to the intake.

It's a maf car. You're letting out metered air and causing richness which bogs/stalls the car.

Any advice on how should I recirculate it back to the intake?

what kind of Bov is it? and you will need it to recirculate AFTER the maf, not before.

Kyomae · 04-12-2013, 05:59 PM

My trunk won't open with the lever or the key on my s14. The lever still works for the gas cover, though. Anyone else have this problem and know how to fix it?

I couldn't find this in any other thread because my search bar never works on here.

I'm just gonna guess it's a HKS bov, but I don't know really. You'd need to figure out how to get the air that comes out of the bov, back into the intake AFTER the bov.. like right before the turbo..

using a large diameter hose might work.

Is it anodized purple/silver, or is it just a solid silver? Purple is greddy style, solid is HKS style.

Its purple and silver.. I was trying to post a pic but my phone isn't allowing me to. The diameter of the hole that the air comes out of is abt an inch. Seems like it has threads inside that hole. So from there to the bottom of the air intake?

SD_Kouki · 04-12-2013, 07:31 PM

New to the 240 scene, have some noob questions if you don't mind. 1) What front bumper is this? 2) Do the fog lights come with it or do I need to buy those seperate? And lastly, 3) are there any special brackets or anything I need to buy to install an aftermarket bumper on a '97 s14?

dont listen to him. recirc goes after the maf, before the turbo. recirc fitting can be bought from frsport i think for like $30

obvious to us doesnt mean obvious to him, especially since he couldnt even identify the type of bov or how to recirc it. no harm, no foul

My apologies I didn't even see that I said bov and not maf.

Anyone know if the S13 SR Power Steering pump tensioner bracket works with the S14 SR pump? Or where to get an S14 SR tensioner? I've only been able to find tensioners labelled S13, don't have any brackets as it sits so I can't just get one and test.

mooshymoosh · 04-13-2013, 03:06 PM

Hi guys not sure if this is a noob question or not but i was looking to buy a front zenki bumper. Im in to the aero kits and i wanted to buy a vertex,version select or the bn front bumpers. After much research most of the sites that were offering the kits had really horrible reviews. Most of the people that bought things never got the item and sometimes they never got the refund back. kind of scary if you ask me. So my question is where is a legit site to buy a front bumper?
