Oh I see what you guys are saying. Ground point in my picture is the ground for both the defroster and antenna. I tugged on the other wire going to the ground, and it popped out. You'll have to remove the liner to connect it back together. But, I recommend the use of an aftermarket amplified antenna anyway.

Sorry if this is a dumb question, but is there anyway i can run a little more camber. without going to ruca's or camber bolts. Is there anything i can do to the stock setup to achieve a little more clearance?

thanks in advance.

I'm sure that since its a little bit bigger it will give you more trouble than my wheels gave me. Even now i still rub my fenders and im rubbing the boot where the harness enters the far on the drivers side.

how do you guys not get harness rub? i know you gotta shove it up there pretty far but mine is as far as it goes and it still is rubbing....

main question: why do you need super-low seat rails? what is the point for being so low? i would think you would want higher ones to get more leverage on the pedals and seeing the windshield easier?

retuck your wires, either rewiring everying wire by wire thru your frame OR
like me take off the fender and bash the frame in and tuck the wire there there. literally, thats what i did lol

yeah kouki tails look like that, later on the glue will seep in and give you a better fitment, at first i was like that too, i was hardcore trippn balls.

but yeah thats how it fits.

Why can't you use a SR20 clutch on a KA?

I have both to compare, but I don't really know what Im looking for.

[I have a KA24DE motor]
Could I use the KA bellhousing, SR trans/clutch/flywheel? Why not?

This may be an stupid question but my limited skills in searching the interwebz net me no answer.

Seems to be flywheel teeth would require SR starter.

So one of the nuts that goes on the top of the one of the 3 studs, on the camber plate, is stuck. This is for an s13, cusco comp-s coils.

It spins in place, and no matter how many times i turn it, it neither moves up nor down. Any ideas as to why this is happening?

if u want yes u can use sr trans with ka bell housing and from wat i remember the sr trans is stronger and gearing is a little longer which ofcourse is good for boost but about the clutch setup um aftermarket flywheel(cant remember which brand search it up)allows u to use an sr pressure plate and ofcourse friction disk
when i wanted to go turbo ka i wanted an sr trans with ka bell housing with the flywheel in question and an sr clutch and yes u use the ka starter for this...pm me if u want to know the other 2 setups that are pretty descent

For the sake of curiosity, does anyone know what v8 swaps (if any) will fit into an s13 chassis and allow for such silly creature comforts as heat, a/c, and power steering without a ton of crazy modifications/fabrications?

None. All V8 swaps will require custom fab/modifications.

LS1 would be the easiest because of the size and available kits/knowledge but you will still need custom parts fabricated.

Power-steering is never really a problem, just get custom lines. A/C can be a pita, hell most guys with S/Rs don't even have A/C cause it's hard enough with a "factory" engine.

Condenser fan help

Just need to know where the hell this goes. Does it go between the condenser and radiator? If this is the case does it attach to the condenser or radiator? Just want to know before I tear the radiator out for nothing

^^ No. Assuming you have an S13 chassis. The 89-90 S13s came with a push type fan that sits in front of the AC Condensor. The 91-94 S13s (and I believe the S14s) came with a pull type fan that sits behind the radiator. Neither one would sit between the AC condensor and radiator.

Well shit. I have a 91 with a DE engine. Fan has the metal "grating" or whatever around it creating a basket. I see nothing for this to bolt to on the radiator. Where the hell does it bolt to?
