before finishing

Sergio180sx · 03-25-2013, 07:01 PM

So many ideas

goldenls · 04-11-2013, 07:56 AM

Finally done

Questions. What do you guys do to mount the maf and filter on a s13 with a sr? Also coolant overflow ideas?

dawagarage · 04-11-2013, 08:49 AM

^nice tub. & at first glance i really liked your rad cap cuz i thought that sticker was on it but now i see that its not.

as for overflow, just make one out of your favorite drink container.

preferably not glass, but if you insulate it correctly itll lesson the
chances of breaking.

DjBjj · 04-11-2013, 10:11 AM

This is full of great stuff

sil14zenki · 04-11-2013, 07:10 PM

here is how i did mine, granted i went with a mid mount set up.

as for the coolant reservoir tank(stock painted black)i mounted it on the lower front right chassis. and my catch tank on the left lower part of the chassis

My personal s14, currently making a simple tube front and front/back bash bar.

Customers s13.

Sorry for the size and broken necks.

Are the gussets welded to tubing on the inner edges? If so, why did you use tubing? It's just gonna add a bunch of weight and it's not like it's tied into a cage running through the firewall...

Fearell · 05-12-2013, 10:41 AM

Does anybody have pictures of an isis m fmic and tubs on an s13? I'm trying to figure out where to drill my holes for the piping. (like a picture looking straight down at the core support)

jeremyuhh · 05-12-2013, 11:03 AM

anyone know a shop that can do this in the SFV/LA area? i dont have the time, equipment, welding experience or space to do this.

Dek-Thai · 05-12-2013, 11:08 AM

heiyuu · 05-13-2013, 08:27 AM

Anyone every weld in tubs with the long block still in their s13? Is this even possible?

Reason I ask is cuz my car is currently parked on gravel so pulling the entire engine to do this is a no-no, but unbolting the in and ex mani's, fmic, and rad shouldn't be a problem!

And yes, gravel + no garage = fluxcore splatter orgy!

I'd say its do-able. Clearly you kno what would make it easiest..

But we're talking an I-4 (not big ass v motor) with no manis def can be done.

I did mine with engine, intake mani and exhaust mani in. Its hard to get to the lower portions, but if you remove the mani you should have no problems.

Drift_FX · 05-13-2013, 10:06 PM

beems240sx · 05-14-2013, 10:17 AM

Here's mine. It's r3232 off a TVR that was special ordered and we added a secret kind of flake in it

Mr.Clerc · 06-03-2013, 09:05 PM

is it generally easier done with the struts and suspension disassembled and off the car?

jp69 · 06-03-2013, 09:10 PM
