[KiLLeR2001]

You want at least 35mm of thread so therefore you would need 55mm studs or more to be on the safe side.

edit: 60mm will most likely be what you will find... http://www.frsport.com/Nismo-40222-R...R)_p_7862.html

I'm going to try a 15mm spacer first then the 20. Which is why I aaked about the 20mm to be on the safe side. But thanks for the info

I've read that if i do go with the 255 i will eventually have to upgrade the fpr to the nismo and adjust the fuel pressure so it is the same as stock(36 with vacuum 40 sumthin without, whatever that means) Can replacing the fpr be avoided by just going with 190? will the 190 drop right in like the 255 is supposed to or is any additional modification needed? thanks

The regulator is going to regulate the pressure to whatever it is meant for. It might wear out quicker from the 255lph but more fuel flowing through the system will mean the majority of it flowing back to the tank and thus keeping the system cooler. I'd definitely get a fuel gauge so you can see any abnormalities after installing.

I wanted like a meaty look really.didnt want to damage the wheels so easily if anything happened.I never liked low profile..

Anything over a 3-5mm spacer requires studs, or bolt on adapters.

If you current fuel pump is good, why change it? If you don't change the FPR, the 190 may still slightly overpower the stock FPR. The difference will be minimal to say the least, so it's on you.

Please help me chose the right lsd for my 1998 s14 with rb25, i want the best for the buck, good for drifting, holds up my 265 tires,last longer. Im between tomei, kaaz2 and os giken. I really not wanna go towards the $1700 os giken lsd unless you guys tell me it really worth the the price. Thanks.

[chiboy002]

os giken is honestly worth it if you dont want to be rebuilding them in the future. otherwise, kaaz/cusco/tomei have all been proven to work. i've got friends with cusco that like them, you just gotta take care of maintenance with em

Hi, was planning on getting a apexi intake system for my ka24de, but it doesnt come with any aluminum piping whatsoever. Can i use the piping, let say from a injen intake and use the apexi filter to complete the air intake?

so in others words, you are just buying the filter. Yes you can.
just make sure they are the right size i believe the injen pipe is 3'. just double check.

If you're going with drifting, get the cheapest unit you can find...as at that point they will all work the same. I'm a big fan of the 1.5 way Kaaz units myself.

Call the dealer, or even a parts store.

The big thing that scares me with the bolt on ebay adapters, is that there is unknown RD/quality in the pieces. I'd hate to risk something terrible happening over a few dollars of cheaping out with the ebay ones. At the same time, the ebay ones may be fine, but at 70 dollars I'd have a hard time believing so.

Also, at the cost (140+ shipping for all 4), I'd sooner get extended studs, and call it a day with some slip on spacers.

What is the diameter of my front sway bar? I'm upgrading to energy suspension bushings.

1991 240sx Base, no ABS/LSD/HICAS

Here's what I'm looking at:
Energy Suspension 7.5121 Front Sway Bar Bushings - 24mm

To install the sway bar bushings, do you have to take the bar off and slide them onto the ends and to the correct locations?

Thanks!

i have googled already but would like some ideas from you guys, i have a 98 s14 kouki sr20det, lots of upgrades and such, but was driving one morning and had boost, next thing i no i have very little to none, running defi bf boost gauge and read 0.2 bar at most = 4lbs roughly from what it was running 12-14lbs. i checked what i could at the time, intercooler pipes, clamps, vacuum lines hoses, took the intake off and front side is spinning at start up, put intake back on engine starts up fine, no smoke, just almost no boost, couple of guys say it could be the backside of turbo shaft that broke, wastegate was removed to see if i could get boost at closed position same unhooked it and still same. any ideas would help again, i no it can be multiple things just seeing if ur ideas are same or different, thanks for the help

They are the same.

Is there any other Nissan that shares the same DIN brackets with the S13?

e.g. Sentra

curbed my car back in november. ripped apart the driver-side tow hook part of the rail . Instead of a box, it's bent outwards from the weld.

I know it matters, but how much exactly does it matter? I remember reading somewhere that only to a certain point that the rail is structural.

flame away !

for the record, I wasn't trying to drift or hooning or anything of that sort.
