thread sizing should be 12mm, since its a 14mm head

idk the pitch though, sorry. and yeah nissan parts departments SUCK so much. they dont continue car parts in stock after like 5 years later from final release. they suck

check the valve breather tube, connects from the valve cover to the intake piping, clean your IACV and your throttle body. both of those fixed mine

TwItCh · 07-13-2010, 08:07 PM

^^ thank you i will go check it out right now

I LUV MY S13 · 07-13-2010, 08:19 PM

Is the Q45 MAF sensor interchangable throughout all Qs? i got one off a 97 and someone needs it for a 91, my assumption is that they do.

Another question is my friend had a power steering leak, leak is fixed but now his steering is stiff. Any suggestions?

project_2fizzle · 07-13-2010, 10:35 PM

im hearing a wierd noise coming from my valve cover i know i can probly fix it with some adjustments but i have cams retainers and springs laying around for my build im wondering if thats too much for a stock sr bottom end at 70k should i just do minimum to fix it or build the top end and swap it on the new bottom end when its completed?

I LUV MY S13 · 07-13-2010, 10:38 PM

If your gonna rebuild your motor you might aswell do it all at once

project_2fizzle · 07-13-2010, 10:41 PM

Renelovesnike · 07-13-2010, 11:37 PM

anyone have any idea what im talking about?? how do i screw them in without havng a significant gap between the car and the skirts?? should i just dump the endcaps and screw from the bottom tabs?

t.vo408 · 07-14-2010, 03:22 AM

I have a 93 s13 se. When I lock/unlock the driver side lock the passenger side does the same. But when I lock the passenger side door nothing happens. I am looking to install key less entry, do I need to buy an actuator for the driver side or is there one in there?

IMSLIDIN · 07-14-2010, 03:41 AM

ok so im looking into replacing my steering wheel but i dont want to spend alot of money on it so i saw one on ebay for like 30bucks i kinda liked it and i was wondering has any1 ever tried any of these? do they work? and for that matter i was trying to relocate the power steering to the empty spot near the o/d light any ideas?

The other day i installed a cigarette lighter cuz mine was missing, I used stock wiring. It worked fine a few days than a friend is fidgety and was fucking with it and now my Dash lights and tail lights do not work. Headlights do, brake lights work when press the brake.

I checked all fuses and found one bad, replaced and still nothing. what Fuse or relay runs dash and tails?

niteridaz503 · 07-14-2010, 09:31 AM

I'm not too sure bout this so i wana ask (because its important for me to know), I have an RB20DET motor set at home but its been sitting for about 7 months now & I haven't turned it since. I was told shit can go bad by just letting it sit there. Now my question is should i turn it & drop some oil in there to get everything lubed up (if so how often) or should i just start to look into tearing it all apart & rebuilding it?

Any & all input is neccesarry thanks guys.

deadghost · 07-14-2010, 10:23 AM

Just installed my DCC, did the diagnostic mode, and got the door functioning. Now my blower is set to HOT, will not turn off by command, and my night lights on my rear taillights will not turn off. I am loosing my freaking mind trying to figure this out. I have to unplug my battery and suffer the fucken heat on my commute to work. I need help!

drftx · 07-14-2010, 01:14 PM

just make sure it's the same bolt pattern as your current wheel, and you should be good. Ebay steering wheels feel like plastic fyi. If you want better information, and you are spending that price..hit up the guys at sonicmotor.com...ask for wasabi hot sauce...and he'll help you.

most fiberglass is going to be custom application....make the skirts fit to your liking, and drill hols where they need to be mounted. sometimes the "tabs" are inches off.

Oh no im talking about the OEM kouki skirts!! where the endcap hole to screw into the inner lip there is no metal or anything to screw into!! if i pull the skirt more towards me to lign up the hole with the metal lip then there is a significant half inch pace between the skirt and the side of the car!! any help or ideas are welcome ^.^

fckillerbee · 07-14-2010, 03:42 PM

you could always take it to a welder and have them make a mounting bracket, and drill a hole where the skirts would line up.
