How do you get to display a car? Does it have to be a 200sx? I do have a clean looking s13 thats a drift car, but my pride and joy is a Mitsubish GTO thats near mint, so would rather put that on show...
All the breather pipes seem clear, the oil return feed isnt blocked, but its still smoking alot and has a coating of oil in the exhaust tail pipe. Guessing its the turbo seals then, all caused by a...
I did wonder, but I didnt think it would smoke from under the bonnet if it was turbo seals? Ive got the heat guard off now so tomrrow in the daylight can run it again and hopefully see exactly where...
Hi guys, been a while since Ive been on here for advice, but Ive recently got myself an N-reg S14 as a drift car. Ive only drifted it once as a bog
standard car and it seemed to go well so thought...
I changed the AAC valve for a spare, and its still the same. When I un-plug the connector on the AAC valve as the engine is running, that also makes no difference. Am I changing the right bit? The...
The AAC Valve was the next thing I was going to change. Luckily I have a spare engine from another S13 that I had for drifting, that ran fine except for the bottom end so can rob sensors and bits off...
Its lumpy at low revs yeah, but not hard to start. It fires up ok, just stalls again almost straight away. If the revs drop under 700 it can be quite hard to save it from stalling, takes full...
Hi guys, got abit of a problem with my S13. Its been sat in my mates workshop for a few months while he got round to welding some new sills onto it, and now its done, got a problem with how its...
My 2003 Honda Accord went through an MOT last week with HID lights in reflector lenses. The tester did the usual height check, and adjusted them slightly and nothing was said. I did have some...
Ive done this on mine, was abit of a pain to get to the bolts but it can be done. Not a very nice job to do, but one had completely snapped (I must have driven a few miles like it as the tank had a...
Is there a 'how to' for doing head gasket on a CA anywhere? Ive got the workshop manual, but a little confused about the intake side of the engine. Alot of the other guides on here are easier to...
Yeah where do you get them from then? Ive searched online wheel shops and ebay and all I dound was either wheel nuts or spacers!
Before searching round breakers yards tomorrow, anyone know if standard S13 front wheel studs are the same as any other Nissan? Bluebird, Sunny, Primera or anything? Mine are knackered on my drift...
Bit of an update on the misfire...it seems to have gone! Havent driven it yet under load but it revs much more freely now, the odd small pop & bang on the over run seems to run much smoother now.
...
LOL - yeah Im going to now! My mate just wanted me to see it for myself before making a start to it, so yeah we are keeping the road one!
Thanks for that. Yeah will do. Ive found out today my road S13 has failed MOT big time on rust (we knew it was bad, but apparrantly half the floorpan is non existant) but thats got a 40K engine and...
Yeah know what you mean about the throttle body pipe, we had to do it like that to get the right downward angle for the new FMIC (trying to use one from a mk3 mondeo diesel) as the FMIC that came...
Finally got another chance to look round the car...that yellow pipe dosnt go to the boost controller, it goes round the back of the engine and to the intake side. But I will do what the guy says and...
Had a play around with the wires, one of the injector clips had broken and was loose, we bodged that with tape and it runs smooth on idle, but wont rev higher than 2-2.5k revs. It also pops and...
Fuel is recent, the last time the old engine was running was start of August, no misfires just a big bottom end rattle! The old engine had a split pipe connected to the cam cover (going nowhere), the...
Havent tried revving it too hard actually, think i took it to about 3k revs to see it it knocked, which it didnt, but sounded like its only running on 3. There are quite a few joins in the boost...
Hi guys, need some help identifying whats causing this misfire please? Its on my drift S13, and the engine was recently fitted. We checked the shells before fitting and they were ok, and I was told...
Yeah my mate said he'll drill it out in stages using precision drill bits and a strong magnet each time to catch as much swarf as possible. Got the bit out of the old block ok, so its just a case if...
You couldnt mask it off and paint it black could you? I might be having a similar issue with my road car when its been welded.
