Small Questions Thread (SEARCH FIRST! Use this instead of making NEW threads)

Fixed transmission problem (kinda), but now I forget which coolant hose goes into the heater core and which on the return is. Which one is which? I'm thinking the one that comes out of the block goes to the bottom hose. And the upper hose goes to return. Can someone verify this?

I've finished my S13 SR20 swap and I'm having problems. As I described in this thread, it breaks up when it gets into boost. Bought new plugs, gapped them at 0.28, adjusted TPS, did a boost leak test and didn't find anything. Plugged out coilpacks, one by one and engine bogs a bit with each one. Plugged out injectors one by one and does the same thing. So, those seem to be fine. Otherwise, double checked everything else.

What is making me think that it's the MAF is how it reacts when I mess with it. If I unplug it, it'll bog down for a second but then build up and have a better idle then when it's plugged in; plugged in it revs, but cuts out when it hits boost, and plugged out, it hits that normal no MAF wall. Also, when it's plugged in vacuum is at 18-19 and 22-23 when plugged out. Doesn't something seem strange there? Decided to pull ECU codes and I'm getting 12; which I'm reading is the MAF. Does all this point to a bad or going bad maf?

It works fine WOT, until it hits boost and then everything cuts out. Could it be that the MAF is going bad and it messes up during boost? I'm pretty much stuck at this point. Do you guys think it could be the MAF?

Has anyone purchased ChaserAero's s14 Zenki hood + rear over fenders? I requested for photos, but he does not have any photos with them installed.

Another question that sounds more like it wants opinion.
You want the lowest?
You want the cheapest?
You prefer side/bottom mount?
You want the brand that matches your seat?
You want someones opinion on what they think is best?

Come on people you gotta work with us with these questions.



I need the lowest position as possible. I dont see no answer on any forum or google... Some guys say they go low and other say they hit the ajustement rod. And yes I want my bucket to go side mount because it can go more lower... Any answer will be apreciate.

After looking at it, it looks like the coolant that goes out of the block goes to the upper heater core hose because that upper hose can't reach the return hose under the manifold. Is this right?

is there anywhere that sells a stock exhaust id sized test pipe, or am I being retarded?

but i just disassembled my extra s13 rear subframe/ suspension.

now i have the axle/axle housing/ hub/ lower control arm still together.

i want them apart

HOW THE HELL DO I GET THIS DAMN AXLE NUT OFF?!??

the axle keeps spinning and i obviously cant break it loose with the pos spinning,
i tried to get crafty and bolt my fender roller to it so i could use my legs/ weight to hold it and my upper body with a breaker bar but no luck.

any ideas? i dgaf about everything except the axle housing as id like to cut it for a dual caliper bracker, powdercoat it, replace the bushings, get new axles and components and 5 lug hubs to go with the other new suspendion parts.

ideas? im super frusterated right now, almost to the point of saying fuck it and just ordering some from a sslvage yard.

just seems like a waste because my dumbass couldnt get the perfect ones i got free from the 20 yr old bullshit

at this point only an impact gun will work
take it to a shop if you don't have one on hand

Bride or Nagisa/Nams. I assume you're talking about seat rails.

326 Power wing. Not sure where to find them new exactly.

Check eBay. I bought my 3" test pipe there and it's good quality stainless steel. There might be something stock sized on there.

To echo Irresistible,

Bride FG and Nagisa Double locking rails are the only rails aside from custom work that will go the lowest.

All other ones have the under-seat style slider locks which, yes, do his the seat.

I'd go with the latter. Then get whatever other links/bushings I need with the saved $430.

[Drunken Drift Monkey]

I tried a search, but came up short.

Is there any DIY on how to install HID's for an S14 Kouki? I know it's pretty simple, but I was just wondering.

[ma.jomaa]

I'm trying to wire up a ka24e Maf to my sr20, Any body with Info about that is greatly appreciated.

P.S The wire colors on the KA24e pigtail do not match the car wires.

Please help.

[BlackZenkiS14]

Order the HID kit, install. If you can't figure it out you have a problem. Every plug only has one plug it matches up to.

this

an autozone employee told me that he never shops there because even with his employee discount (~25%) its still priced higher than other places.

Napa pricing is always pretty low and quality is usually great. Napa oil is made by the same company that makes the Valvoline oils, except Valvoline uses different specs.

i'm using the duralast slave and master. the slave works perfectly fine and i'm pretty sure it's cheaper than $37. but the master is crap. catching point is practically in my knee after hours of adjustments
