[90KAcoupe]

Its the M62. hopefully i can pick it up today.

[dori_sil8t]

thats what it was.. m80 is a firecracker lol nice work tho

[90KAcoupe]

here is an update since i havent updated it in a while..

well i got it running and we had some problems with the coolant. turns out it was getting compression form the cylinder in the coolant.. which meant 1 of 2 things..

1. head or block is cracked
2. headgasket problems

so we tore back into it and found that since our head and block had been shaved to min, 2 of the head bolts had been bottomed out and stretched the threads. this made it so the head wasnt pulled down as tight as it needed to be. so im getting head bolts and a headgasket tomorrow and the head is going back on.

i was just hopeing for autox sunday.. but because of this i will just be spectating again...

but whats an update with out whoring out pictures..

here is our cat turned into a resonator..







here is the exhuast..

Im jealous, your car is sooo CLEAN!!! Keep up the good work!

[ByeByeSti]

holy shitttttt this is by the cleanest s13 build ive ever seen. glad to see someone else out there who is almost my age doing this too!. you just made me think about selling the sr motorset and all the parts i bought for my s14 last week to build up one of the two ka's i have sitting around

[90KAcoupe]

oh something i forgot to mention is.. the next thing for this car before the super charger will be a complete suspension build..

including...
koni 8610/gc sleeve setup
s14 rear subframe conversion (solid mounts)
z32 rear uprights (maybe with spherical bearing inserts)
all aftermarket suspension arms.
and other random things..

after joining nissanroadracing.com my "to do" list like tripled..

[drftwerks]

go s15 rear subframe.

nice car.

dont crash it like a typical 16 year old

[HS13KLS]

omg....dude that motor looks like it came straight out of the factory...+ 1

[90KAcoupe]

i thought the s15 and s14 rear subframe where basically the same.. maybe im wrong.. but im still new to all the hardcore suspension stuff.. but all i know is i have an extra s14 subframe laying around i can swap out.

[s13pignose]

Hey whatevers free right lol. Thats messed up about the head issue and all, good luck

[BoostinGST]

looks like you went overkill on the stitch welding, but the attention to detail is there nice work, repped.

[90KAcoupe]

well the head is back on the engine with new headgaskets and head bolts. and everything is good.. the car runs better and stays at running temp.. so hopefully i can start driving tuesday.. i got to get tags monday..

[90KAcoupe]

[Om1kron]

very awesome man...

[90KAcoupe]

i havent got any good pics yet.. im really happy with the car.. and now everybody at my highschool wants to race me.. and im like i think autox is this weekend.. show up and see what times u can turn.. lol its not worth the attention or ticket.

[90KAcoupe]

i guess i need to update this a little with some good pics and a story from a drift event..

Well i had my 1st drift event on the car may 3rd.. it was the SEDA La Cucaracha Dreft in Greenville SC. the event went amazing other then the parking lot being a tire killer.

but during my 1st run group i kept understeering or spinning out.. but by my 2nd run group i was chaining the whole course consistantly.. which qualified me for TANDEM!!!! yea 1st drift event and running tandem i felt like that was a major accomplishment. here are some pics from the event.. it was super fun. but there arent any good pictures from tandem.. my friend with the camera started riding with me during tandem..


1st tandem run.. manditory 5 sec starting gap.


3rd gear entry

all the other decent action shot are on the other cd i need to upload
but here was a small photoshoot we did.









if u were at the event.. and u want some pictures or your car.. lmk what u drove and ur email and i'll send u what i have.

[d0pe240]

[90KAcoupe]

^thanks man.. i need to cage my car so i can run tandem with other sanctions then just seda...

[drift Kid]

super clean 240 dude.. i remember ur car now.. lets tandem next event haha

[90KAcoupe]

^im down.. i've already got some tires for next event.. i wanna do some tandem with equally matched cars so we can get a little closer.. (im not talking formula D close tho.. lol)
