what type of camera are you using to get that nice of pic. or is it a technique that you are using.

Maxtype 240 · 11-04-2003, 03:52 PM

I'll be taking some vacation time soon to re-route and re-hose most of the OEM vacuum hose and fuel lines.

I should re-dyno soon after some tweaking...

Your 280Z is nice

Here are recent pics of my car. I just finshed installing some coilovers (big thanks to Robbie aka Evil98Silvia). I took these pics about 40 mins after the install, so my car is dirty and the camber up front is on the negative side.

Still needs ALOT of work....and a full paint job

95KoukiS14 - Time for some rims

Some DT05Rs in gunmetal would look nice your car, check out the GB section.

this is my first post on this forum. im an aussie with an 'S13 180SX' factory SR20DET 5speed. i dont understand why so many 180's (240's if u will) have factory fitted KA24's? is the SR20DET factory model illegal to import into the states? i owned a 1991 PINTARA though i think u will know it as a STANZA which had a factory KA24. do all STANZA's in the states have factory KA24's?

thanks for your time. im happy to answer any questions about our imports in australia if anyone has any questions.

MATT.

KiDyNomiTe · 11-05-2003, 05:55 AM

Don't think SRs passed all the tests to be legal here, so we get crap motors, like in most cars that come this side.

Yes all Stanzas here came with the KA24.

I figured Aussies would be more Euro spec and get CAs in thier S13s, guess not.

Did you guys get S13 coupes? If so did it come with the 180 front or the S13 silvia front?

**mrmephistopheles** · 11-05-2003, 07:39 AM

SR's mainly didn't come here because late 80s early 90s was a bad time for turbocharged cars. US market was a bad place to market them since they'd gotten a bad rep in the late 70s early 80s.
Oz never imported S13s new. All their S13s are Japanese imports. As for S14s, I believe they began importation of those with the Kouki S14 and then S15, labeled as 200sx.

sleek240 · 11-05-2003, 12:05 PM

another main reson that the sr was not imported into the states is becuase nissan wanted to market a sports car mainly 300zx so why would u bring in 2 cars that are in the same catagory and 1 is cheaper than the other so the market for the 300zx would have fallen... and more S chassis cars would have been sold... its all in the marketing of both cars .. and as for the emmisions .. remember thats what converters are for .. they would have found a way to pass the emissions

later

SimpleS14 · 11-05-2003, 12:32 PM

KiDyNomiTe - I already have rims, Kosei K1's, and I can never remember the name of the color. I'm not driving around with them mainly because the tires on these rims are nearly bald and two of the rims have skinny tires (215/40/17). These rims are not "super flush, low offset, JDM bling bling"

....but I like them and I will slap them on my car once I get new tires (next year). Right now I put them on just so I can take these pictures and see how they look.

Matt_240 - It is kinda odd how we are both building our cars up in the same way.

I got lucky and found the taillights at this junkyard only 9 miles from my house, they cost me $318 (its better than BRAND NEW cost). I also have a primered fender, and a fkceud up hood which was the result of a hit and run.

That's why I don't have any pics of the passenger side...but just this once I will attach a pic to this post. I'm waiting to find a JDM bumper before I recoat the whole car (its 4 shades right now

)...I really wish I could have your bumper.

KiDyNomiTe · 11-05-2003, 12:57 PM

Oh how I want some K1s, but I'm broke, when the time comes I'll be buying some rims, but I'd really like the get the car lowered first. Came real close to getting some AGXs and eibachs from a junkyard, but someone got to the front within 24 hours (saw em and came back the next day

). Now I'm stuck with only the fronts, but also got some mystery toe arms with pillowball mounts.

thelinja · 11-05-2003, 12:59 PM

Damn, you're car looks great with those wheels 95KoukiS14. I think the color is anthracite? I don't think they make K1s in that color any more though which is too bad because I would be buying those wheels without a doubt.
Whoa, and Nitekids got banned?? Where the hell have I been?

Fastback180 · 11-05-2003, 05:22 PM

ehhh.....took my camera to work today, horrible picture..forgot to use macro mode.....

95KoukiS14 - car looks good man. at least you can take pictures of the one good side. both my fenders are primered so shes not too pretty right now.

tasty treat · 11-06-2003, 01:01 AM

MRMEMPHIS is right we didnt get S13's new... all we have here is "low volume imports". So we get silvia's and 180's with CA's and SR's in NA and turbo form. Maybe its just a term used on this forum but whats a KOUKI S14? We did get new 200SX's here the S14, series 1 and 2 and now the S15. I dont know if u call them series 1 or 2 over there but the series 1 is the rounded front end while the series 2 has the angled headlights.

Kidynomite standard silvias (with boot) have a standard headlight front end, the 180SX (hatch) has the pop-up lights. Though seeing as we get varied imports here some cars come over very heavily modified. A recent example i saw was a purple CA18DET 180SX stroked to a 2litre with a bigger turbo (not sure on specs) amongst the usual injector, fuel pump, plenum, intercooler and internals, though internals were a mystery to the importer. It also had the aftermarket computer removed. A local workshop fitted and tuned Microtech (stand alone engine management) to bring in a nice 437KW. On the dyno it was able to turn 90 in 1st, 150 in 2nd, 210 in 3rd, interestingly enough they didnt reach redline in 4th or 5th on the dyno.

It's what you call a S14 series 2.

series 1 = zenki

series 2 = kouki

I wouldn't mind having a S15.

AE86Deacon · 11-06-2003, 09:50 AM

Unfortunately, this FF car below is mine. But hopefully not for much longer.

Stee Flo · 11-06-2003, 09:59 AM

FF or not, it still looks sweet. Im diggin the wheels and the recaros! Nice man.

Fastback180 · 11-06-2003, 02:46 PM

George you been cookin lenses again?

brianglawson · 11-06-2003, 04:15 PM

who gives a damn if the vw is ff, that thing is wicked, what brand, size, offset are those wheels, they would look badass on my fathers gti vr6

ohyeah the main question, WHY THE HELL ARE YOU GETTING RIG OF IT!!!
