I did. They were asking for around $340. I can't remember if that was with or without the core return.

Quick Q:
I have the oem intake piping for the sr20, what do I do with the 2 nipples? I have a fmic with no nipple on the hot pipe. Should I plug them both up? I'm new to the SR world and lost at the moment.. |

If im not mistaken, one hole is for a re-circulation valve, one is for the crankcase vent and im not sure what the small one is for. I just plugged the small one. If youre not recirculating your bov then you can plug that one.

The waste gate nipple needs to go to a boost source. I had a bung for a nipple fitting welded on my hot pipe. Ive heard of people using the nipple under the throttle body for the wastegate, but im unsure as to whether or not that is ideal. The intake manifold is obviously going to be pressurized so i dont see why it wouldnt work, but i like that my vacuum line only has to be run about 6 inches/

The left nipple is what goes to the fpr. The right is what goes to the bov. At least thats how i have it. Not sure if it matters being as how both ports go in to the manifold. One nipple is larger though so that may change the amount of vacuum those sources see? Not sure.
You dont need a boost controller if you dont intend on on playing with your boost pressure, which i wouldnt. Either way you will still need a source for your wastgate. |

I would not do that for two reasons:
1) The wastegate diaphragm is not designed to experience vacuum. It may tear and no longer control boost pressure. 2) The length of that hose would be far too long and cause boost spike You should either weld a nipple to the hot pipe, tap the compressor outlet pipe or use a "Quick-tap" from ATP |

The intake pipe won't work, it doesn't see boost pressure.
The ideal source for the wastegate signal is closest to the compressor housing so that it can respond quickly. I had my quicktap on the coupler between the compressor outlet pipe and hotpipe. Now, I have a fitting tapped into the compressor outlet pipe. It's cheaper, but more difficult to get right the first time of you're not experinced tapping curved surfaces. |

I have another question now... is this the oem red top outlet pipe? My hot pipe sits too high and the hood doesn't close. I Googled the oem one and it looks like the oem one sits more straight up.

^Doesn't look stock. The stock one is shorter and sits almost vertical:

Cleaned the maf (looked fine though) and hooked a vacuum up to the intake while it was off the car, no leaks. The only thing post maf is the valve cover breather hose, but it comes that way stock so I wouldn't think that would cause issues right? The sensor for the maf in the AFC Neo is set to "hot wire", then "In" 1, "Out" 1, then "In" single, "Out" single. I'm not sure where to verify that this is the correct setting, but I know if it was incorrect that'd cause problems so if anyone knows the proper setting let me know. |

Timing chain fucked, oil in coolant. What do?
My single cam rattles when started and sometimes when idling. I figure it's the dreaded timing chain issue. It would also explain why my coolant keeps turning black, and my motor smells like it's burning all the time.
Is it worth trying fix all this shit? Or would it be more cost effective to just buy a new motor? |

So my throw out bearing fucking exploded at 3am last week.
Right after like 10 fucking hours of wrenching and tuning to get it back on the street. Joy. Anyway, which clutch looks better or are they both toast. My 6 year old Spec. The Exeddy that came with the swap and I shelved 6 years ago since I already had a new Spec. And the flywheel. 2 fucking bolts snapped like god damn pretzel sticks. |

I am considering upgrading my springs on my Cusco Zero-2r, 7kg/5kg, to something like 9kg/7kg or even 10kg/8kg from Swift. Could the shock handle the stiffer spring rate? Does anyone know the diameter and length by chance. I haven't pulled .you coil overs off to measure.

so exedy clutch disk and pressure plate? the oem style exedy clutches aren't supposed to be super badass or anything, so I don't know how much you could abuse or what power setup you run or whatever. I have the same clutch for my sr, and I like it, it is very smooth engagement |

It looks like the Exedy disc looks like it has a bit more life. You can compare the two disc by checking their wear limits as shown below. The OEM spec might not be exact for those aftermarket discs, but it'll give you an idea of what Nissan considers worn out.
The surface rust on the Exedy pressure plate doesn't look great, but you could clean it up yourself with a sanding block, sand paper glued down to a table or take it to a machine shop and have them run it over a bench sander. ps. It's interesting to see that your Exedy disc has some stray fibers around the outer diameter. When I replaced mine, it had the same thing, but much worse, chips of the material missing around the outer edge too. It had as much material thickness as the new disc I put in, but I suppose the shock of clutch kicking was too much. I only had 5-10 events on it. |

I'm not sure. If your run that part number you'll see that it comes back as an "OEM Clutch Disc" for KA/SR. However, it might be an aftermarket replacement despite Exedy being the OEM for Nissan, meaning that your engine might not have come equipped with that clutch kit from the factory; that it was replaced at some point.

I'll check tomorrow. I had just assume someone replaced the OEM clutch at some point since it had a bright purple cover. |

no it isn't, my sr had the original clutch in it, and the disk, and pressure plate will have nissan stamped on it.
did you keep the throwout bearing for the exedy? because all dat shit is different size throwout, between exedy and stock etc. maybe even different size/style throwout between exedy and spec, |

SPEC did not come with a TOB. I do not recall anything remarkable with the original TOB in the trans 6 years ago. |
