haha thanks jered, i miss helping you pull your KA every month haha J/K
We miss ya bro.

for the S13 probably not, I just dont see the point of painting this car, when there is a chance of it ending up in a wall lol (i hope not >.<)

The S14 though is gonna be the pretty car though.


I'll be ordering the RB25 next month when i get out of ALS School (kinda like NCO acadamy) and im working on getting coils for it

thats so badass! and it looks like they fit really well too, nice to see them on something other than a mustang

[Sileighty_85]

man been awhile since Ive done anything with the S13.
Had the Rack and pinion go out took about year until I felt like replacing it lol

had to pull out my Shimmed VLSD cuz it was screamin like a banshee turns out I brok off two pinion gear teeth


Then picked up a 300zx tranny for when the SR gives again


But new problem as arisen...kinda, for a long time now I was having exhaust gases leaking into my coolant system.

Well this kinda a hit or miss, but I tried re-torqueing down the Head studs again hoping it would seal it..... well Nope I ended up warping my head go figure

So pullin the head milling it and getting a new H/G and New ARP Head Studs


maybe give me a chance to clean up this rats nest call a harness


the culprit cylinder #3

[Sileighty_85]

Got in my new Apexi H/G and got the Head Mill'd




Just need some new ARP HS and she'll be ready for install

[SLiDe_WaYz]

Man I have a apexi head gasket I woulda sold u for cheap brand-new in the wrapper lol. Or just given to you for helpin me out all the time.

Damn wish i I had known, would have been perfect it it was a 87 Pi 1.5mm one.

But oh wellz

Finally painted my engine bay last week, somthing I should have done 4 years ago

[Sileighty_85]

Finally Got in my new ARP HS, so started putting her back together

Also picked up a Circuit sport IM gasket, well see if that cuts down on the heat transfer

Pretty much where Im at since i got too dark


Heres my other project Im working on right now If anyone cares

[Sileighty_85]

well got her back together and running yesterday, just need to change the oil and bleed the coolant system.

[get low]

amazing work

[c-los13]

Upgarage and junk yards.

Just read through the whole thread. Some good inspiration in here. Good shit man.

[Sileighty_85]

So I picked up some 180SX Power Folding Mirrors while I was in Okinawa.

So heres a little write up on installing them


Wire colors are the same for the Mirror Adjustments, The Blue and Green are for the folding motor.


The switch plug is the same as the 180SX one folding one minus 3 wires for the folding motor.

Now instead of just cutting off the USDM to swap on the J-Spec one, you can just Re-Pin the 3 wires.

Here are the 3 wires.


Start by unlocking the plug to gain access to the wire pin lock tab inside.


Then find a small solid object able to reach the wire pin lock tab,


Press the tab and pull up on the wire


Then unlock the USDM plug and insert the 3 wires in the appropriate spot




For running the wires to the switch I was trying my damnedest to try and use wires in the OE door harness but the Passenger side is a PITA to get to the Dash side plug of the Door without taking shit apart. So as much as I hated to do it I had to run the wires on the outside of the OE harness.



So then just run the wires to the switch and wire accordingly

[Sileighty_85]

Finally got a Real LSD in the chassis

Cusco 2 Way, Id prefer a 1.5 but couldnt pass up on the deal.





Feels so great to drive a car with a real LSD again

Dude, when are you going to paint this thing?

Maybe soon, But been wanting to retire the Fast back for a Coupe if I can find one locally.

[mrxsill3]

thats some good stuff!

[Sileighty_85]

Just got these so i can finally take off the Stock S14 rims

[Sileighty_85]

Man Not much else really going on with this build.

Right now Im debating on getting a Coupe and swapping everything over to it.

Other than That I just need tire rods and Ends, paint, and a good set of Rims and I think I'd be finished with this chassis.... Really Want a Coupe Though

Finally bought some Real Lug Nuts
Now I can Finally wrench them on with out worrying if Im gonna strip them out.



Fuck You AutoZone Lugs

[Sileighty_85]

Well seems like its time to retire the old Fastback, Gonna be a little though since it was my first USDM S-Chassis chassis Been wanting to for a while since the Front end has always been jacked up and my liking to Coupes more.

So i picked up this Dookie Chassis from a friend for a a few hunndred. One big issue was the broken back glass which most of us know are hard to obtain due to Nissan and other glass companies not making them, well lucky for me a Coupe poped up in a junk yard here locally and I was able to snatch it up ^_^

[Sileighty_85]

Man good bit of work today.

Pulled out the whole rear interior to clean all the crap that accumulated over the years of not having a rear window.

wish i had taken a before pic, it was pretty nasty







Then started clearing out the engine bay to get ready to pull the engine.




All the crap I can throw away

[Sileighty_85]

Cant believe it took me this long to do this mod.

I'm gonna get some SPL outers if and when I send my spare knuckles off to get modded

[pacotaco345]

MOAR of the coupe!!! Please (:

[Sileighty_85]

Lol I'm holding off on the coupe until I get the title transferred into my name, which should be next week. Would have pulled the engine today but the AHS is upgrading to a new building, but I might do it at my buddies garage tomorrow. Well see

[Sileighty_85]

Got the Engine Pulled, and Started cleaning up the Engine bay
