Hey Zenki Bros I've been out of the loop a little, but I was wondering if the person who was making the "Zenkis Unite" decal (with the headlight outline) still had/made some fs? I need more

Question for the guys running HIDs, how the hell do you have your low beams wired up so that when you turn on the High beams, the low beams would stay on too?

blksylv · 07-19-2011, 07:31 AM

do you have a bixenon kit?

I'm also still stuck on the edge of either running 17s or 18s.
Ive got it in my head that 18s are gonna be too hard to spin since I've got an N/A KA.
And if I run SE wheels as drift spares, I'm thinking 18 front and 16 rear is gonna be too much stagger.
As well as if I run 18s, I see it as I'm not going to be able to go as low as 17s will allow, which yes, I know is obvious. Hah
Then If I run 17s, I think they look too small.......
17s stock body, 18s with a kit? Ughhhh

Madness, I know. I'm a confusing, OCD, picky fuck when it comes to stuff like my car. Ha sorry if all these noob questions are annoying, just let me know and I'll stop. Ha

Dude....I think you have WAY more issues then what size wheel to run....

ordered the cxracing aluminum radiator for Automatic S14s ... the only one i could find, and a guy from cxracing emails me today saying they are out of stock -__-

guess ill be getting an ISIS and a tranny cooler

illvialuver · 07-19-2011, 10:42 AM

is mishimoto really that expensive so people would actually buy cx racing, and isis? have you guys even seen the amount of people that having cooling failure due to that junk?

Idk, just an idea, it is not like if your radiator fails your car can over heat and possibly warp your head and cause you to blow a gasket.

venom_5 · 07-19-2011, 10:53 AM

i really dont care about my automatic KA that much, and i dont plan to keep it forever ... so really its just about getting the cheapest thing that will get me back up and running so i can get to work once i recover
and speaking of which, i just saw one of the vendors here has the godspeed for $155 so thats probably what i'll do

i believe this guy has 18s and hes completely stock KA
EDIT: found his numbers Front:225/40/18 Rear:235/40/18

I thought I had read that (for NA KA) an exhaust with a cat was better than no cat. Can someone go into detail and explain how a cat can or won't help for NA KA?

you will lose an imperceptible amount of hp with a cat, but your car will smell better, sound better, and be better for the environment.

also slightly more legal, lol.

I have a high flow cat. Its actually not that bad. Car is pretty quiet but still a bit more HP than stock.

You have heard of SWD then right? Ive been with them for a little over a year and a half now on the crew with a buddy of mine and his LS, but I plan on starting to run on my own next season.

I see. Well I guess I'm just underestimating my car? Ha for now its STOCK. But those small upgrades were all I really plan on getting anyways. Thanks alot man.

DeanGrind · 07-19-2011, 04:33 PM

Old,

R.I.P.

And the new POS I picked up a couple weeks ago, never modded, shifts smooth, and has ice cold A/C for those hot FL days! Too bad shes ugly as sin

RoXiE.S14 · 07-19-2011, 05:32 PM

All that means is a very fun project to get started on

yomisiu · 07-19-2011, 06:01 PM

My clear covers came in today. I'm curious to see if HIDs partnered with the clear is as bad as I've read people say they are. Will install them tomorrow. The HIDs are actually quite nice with the stock JDM setup. (DDM Tuning 5k)

saaawwwweeeeet, mine came in today too! much nicer than my last set...

the JDM housings do look good with the clear covers and HID's... little loud, but clean as hell...

yomisiu · 07-19-2011, 06:21 PM

Good to hear.

Do you plan on painting the flat parts of the housings black this time around? I remember reading that you were thinking about it. I might consider doing it.

i did do it the last time around, and will do again this time around as well...

and the bottoms...

all you do is follow the factory line on the OEM lens with electrical tape, or flexible painters tape, then just mask off the face of the lens... use steel wool or a brillo pad to score the exposed plastic that's to be painted. then clean the dust and shit off, and rattle can with a semi gloss for an OEM look. peel tape away and revel in the win.

EDIT: i said elec tape because it's just about as wide as the unpainted section of the top of the OEM lens, you can almost just follow the upper edge of the clear lens and have a perfect line. as for masking the bottom, and where the corner light is, just flex the elec tape where it rolls over the edge of the face to the side about 1/8 of an inch. just thought i should share the details.

i see my new CS lenses look like they're untrimmed, or maybe they're like that for the metal clips, I'll find out when i get into em later. might have some trimming to do...
