Please help,
I've looked and searched for days and hours. I got an s14 with stock ka, however the idle is very high and rough. Usually when Im driving and come to a stop light the car will idle at 1700k and will not drop. Same thing when i turn it on, it goes right up to 1700k and stays there. Also when im driving around 2k-3k the car loses power and starts to stutter and buck as if it was not receiving fuel. I've checked for vacuum leaks, checked the fuel pump as well(ordered a walbro 255), cleaned the Maf sensor, recently did a tune and nothing. I was gona be cleaning the throttle body and IACV, also the engine harness and connections are very oily and dirty so I was thinking of cleaning that as well. Question is what else can i look for? and also when i clean all this parts do i use carb cleaner? and with the wiring can i also use carb cleaner? Im gona clean everything and see the results.
thank you everyone, any comments, questions, complaints are highly appreciated!

-Was also thinking about replacing the coolant temp sensor.

Just use the diagnostic mode by turning the screw on the ECU. Otherwise you'll be stuck hunting down all of the CONSULT stuff, which won't be useful for any other car. Unless you're ultimately going to run Nistune, I wouldn't recommend it. That said, you'll need a CONSULT to USB adapter and some kind of software.

Google is your friend.

ZenKi_373 · 12-11-2011, 02:29 AM

Looking for a place that would or could possible refurbished/ re coat my cracking and old Nardi wheel.

Orange County, California preferred, or Inland Empire. Southern California.

Thanks.

PNgo12 · 12-11-2011, 04:46 PM

Okay I'm not yet ready to accept that my VLSD is going bad that it's turning into an open.

I've googled searched and nothing really satisfied what I need to know. I'm running 75/90 redline gear oil in my diff but its not really locking and I don't remember if I used GL-4 or 5 but when I searched some are saying use GL-4 while others say use GL-5 and some say use the additive and some say don't since its already a closed unit and does not need it. I'd like to put this to rest. Should I be using GL-4 or 5 and do I need the LSD additive? I'm also going to be switching up to 80/90

mowgli 240sx · 12-11-2011, 07:56 PM

would a stock air intake piping off of a s13 ka24de fit on a s14 ka24de ??

rat240 · 12-11-2011, 10:08 PM

^^^
I tried a s14 intake on a s13 kade
And the bends are different and the s14 has less Bungs than the 13 one

sdterrible1 · 12-12-2011, 02:53 PM

Any one know why this would happen? Lowered car more. Car is probably close to 1 deg - camber. Now coliover body is hitting the toe rod bolt.. Any ideas?

daftphunk · 12-12-2011, 06:24 PM

So as I was driving today I heard a loud clunk. Saw a bunch of smoke coming out from behind and eventually a lot of clunking coming from the rear end.

When I pulled over to take a look at it, I saw smoke coming out from my diff it seems like. I had a welded diff and it's all clunky now, I'm going to just guess that I broke the welds on it. Would that be a safe assumption?

And I am about 25 miles away from my house, how safe would it be to drive it home? Or am I better off just getting it towed on a flat bed tonight? Was thinking of pulling the diff out tomorrow but was gonna see if a shop can get it on a lift and just reweld the gears together.

How plausible is all of this?

fckillerbee · 12-13-2011, 02:34 PM

can someone PM me telling me what/where that rear fender lip is and where I can find one. I've searched URAS stuff, and had no luck.

Mucho thanks.

if it's your diff....then eventually one of those welds may get stuck inside, and lock it up (my buddy had it happen on the freeway. Instant drifting on the HWY).

Drive slow if it's worth it to you. 25 miles is a ways away.

Jonathong · 12-13-2011, 04:13 PM

Ok so i installed my coils. After i got done i noticed my camber became different in the front, like this and yes the offsets and tire size is the same, what im wondering is if i get my car aligned with they fix all the camber and make both the same because it looks like my passenger side has positive camber? any input is greatly apperciated. (hope the pics help explain what im trying to get at.)

drivers side

passenger side

ILoveJDM · 12-13-2011, 04:35 PM

did you adjust the camber plates on top...
did you make sure the 2 bolts on the bottom mount were equal pushed in/out when you tightened them on.

JonathanPrem · 12-13-2011, 05:06 PM

Can you start s20det with out intercooler piping to see if the motor is fine? Car will be running with map senor.

You don't have to reinstall them to adjust the camber plates. And if you were to get an alignment (which I recommend to make the car feel great) they will set the camber back to what you want it at. On both wheels, evenly.

David48 · 12-13-2011, 06:37 PM

If the camber plates are even then check that the top bolt on the lower mount of the coilovers is pushed all in or all out as evenly as the other side.

Some coils don't have slots. Some just have holes that are even. And some are just holes that are offset. So that's not always the issue. When you lower your car, the toe gets affected as well, so that might have an impact on how it looks.

Im a put my BOV on the cold pipe, and put a small adapter for the waste-gate on the hot pipe, will J-B Weld with their cold weld be enough and not mess up on the inter cooler piping?
