You will not blow off or have any boost control with that setup.

Okay thanks. I knew it didn't go that way, that's just how I got it in the mail. This is how I have it ran now. I was told to just leave the bottom nipple open?

This is how I have it ran. But instead of the black hose on bottom, it would be on top coming from the intake.

Would you happen to know what goes on #3? That one would be hard to get to once the engine is in.

And can i bolt up the power steering after the engine is in, or?

I really, really appreciate it sir, thanks!

I would bolt the power steering up now. Easier to do with more room.

I honestly don't think it's used. I have looked at many pictures of the front of Sr's and see no bolt in there.

Anyone one know what size in mm are the bulbs used for the HVAC unit and dash switches in S13's? Wanna replace them all with amber leds. TIA

redenblack · 12-20-2010, 01:22 AM

i have a bone stock 95 s14. the engine and car shakes when i first turn on the car. what seems to be the problem? is it cuz of the really cold weather? vacuum leak?

punxva · 12-20-2010, 07:33 AM

so i'm trying to decide which extended studs to get for the front, i have ichiba hubs up front, i've read that they are 14mm so i was wondering which ones will work with the knurl on the hubs.

佩恩_ · 12-20-2010, 12:58 PM

Just wanna double check.

S14 zenki and S14 Kouki doors both are the same right? driver and passenger side?

Everything bolts right on other than the headlights. Door panels are different though, the trim is probably a different design.

The top is the vac line the bottom is a boost reference line on the BOV. It's supposed to increase the response of the BOV. It may be helpful if you experience some surge before blow off. But, in every instance I have encountered it just makes the BOV flutter more in transient conditions.

What fastener holds the handles on for the windows? I took this appart two years ago and they are long gone.

C-clips, Lynch Pins? Does it go thru the small holes or around the plastic part?

cole shoes · 12-20-2010, 04:34 PM

i went to the track this past weekend and it was raining and because of the condensation i had to leave my driver window down. now JUST my head lights wont turn off, they are dim and when i turn the lights on they still go back to normal brightness they just never turn off. i disconnected the battery for now but i was seeing if this had every happened to anyone else on here and if there was an easy fix to it or a wire i have to check and where its located?

thanks guys.

Mista Lee · 12-20-2010, 04:56 PM

Trying to get my kade to tdc.
have the motor on a stand and of course have the plugs out but my problem is that the crank doesn't want to turn, even with a breaker bar..
am i doing something wrong?

blksylv · 12-20-2010, 05:06 PM

whats the specs on the bolts from the turbo outlet to the dp on a sr by chance?

timlush · 12-20-2010, 07:16 PM

Is the wiper motor connector different on 97-98 than 95-96? Thought my engine harness was missing the connector, but looking at the 97-98 FSM, it looks like they possibly used a different style connector. (I think the harness I'm using might be from a 97-98.)

blksylv · 12-20-2010, 07:27 PM

it is different, i got a harness from a kouki a while back and noticed it was diff

timlush · 12-20-2010, 07:52 PM

Yeah, just compared the FSM's and realized that. Luckily the defrost button plug is the same as the 95-96 wiper connector and I have an extra one of those laying around haha

chiboy002 · 12-20-2010, 09:02 PM

If i have a s14 base model but it has SE drivers door harness and my passenger side window cant roll down from master switch, if i swap the passenger door harness to an SE harness will it work ?

Jonathong · 12-21-2010, 04:56 AM

I have a set of rims, and they are 17x9 +24 offset im getting new tires for it. What size tires would look good on them on a stock s14 body?

sw20g · 12-21-2010, 07:13 AM

Is there a difference in the plug that goes in the back of the alternator from s13 to s14?

Thats a pretty subjective question- it really depends on the look youre going for. If you like the stretched look, a 225 would be a decent stretch on a 9" rim, but wont offer you a ton of sidewall to absorb impact from potholes and whatnot. If It were me, Id run a 235 up front and a 255 out back. Im running 18x9 +22 wheels on my S14 with 235's and 255's. I had 225's up front and demolished a wheel when i hit a pothole, which is why i switched to 235's. The 225's definitely looked nasty, but for a street car in PA, it just wasnt worth it. Roads are too shitty. If you want to run the same size tire all around so that it can be rotated, you probably want to do a 235 or 245 all around.

Another thing to consider is if you ran a 225, I *think* youd want a 45 series tire, which would provide a lot more cushion on you 17" rim than my 225/40 on an 18". My best advice would be to look in the stretch/flush thread, and the maximum rubber thread (both stickied in the chat forum), and use those as a reference to choose your tire size. Your wheels have a fairly mellow offset, so if max rubber is your style, you can fit a good amount of rubber in there. If stretch/flush is your style, you can put stretched tires on there and space the wheels out so they dont look goofy. If your offset is too high, or your car isnt low enough, it will look very silly with stretched tires. Depending on how the wheels sit on your car (and how you WANT them to sit) will determine what tire sizes you should run.

I assume you mean for the KA? If so, no- there is no difference.

I'm looking to get an AFPR, preferably one with a gauge. The guys at Phase2 recommended the Circuit Sports model as it has everything I need at an affordable price. They said the quality of the piece is better than the Megan, but I'm wondering if I should spend a little more for the Tomei or SARD models? Anyone have experience with any of these AFPR's?
