This. I need to be added to the banner still I think.
Hello /scg/
I need new injector plugs, Rock-auto has 4 choices and two different styles.
Other forums just recommend buying used plugs because they're dumb,I'd like to buy the one that fits best and dont need to be massaged to fit. Anyone replaced injector plugs before?
>>14206828
why dont u pop ur hood and look what you have?
>>14206861
My 20 year old plugs look like a combination of the two.
>>14206871
thats why they are sold each
>>14206534
>>14207413
I am C4, please replace it with >>14206534 please
>>14207413
who are all these faggots.....
im going to make my own info chart
I really want an S13 but I still can't come to terms with having to pay $6,000 for a high mileage drift missile.
>>14208511
don't, just keep looking
>>14208532
But I've been looking for two years. The only compromise around here is to get a salvage title, get something nearing 300,000 miles, or get an autotragic.
>>14208511
paid $600 for mine....
back in 2001
>>14208541
Just get an automatic and convert it.
>>14208827
All the time, effort, and money just to end up at nearly $6k again. Nah.
>>14206623
did you put your car up for sale in Washington?
>>14208511
>i know what i got
>>14208842
just get a shell for 500 more or less and throw in what ever motor you want
>>14208423
I'll update the banner soon to change your pic and add the donk s14
>>14208479
they're people who posted sideshots of their cars to be added to the banner. I'll add you if you post yours.
>>14208479
Ask nicely brah
>>14208855
Yeah, it's been up for a while. I'm moving east for school again soon and need an awd car. Got one in mind but need the funds.
>>14211239
That sucks
>>14211593
Yeah. Its been a solid daily but it hasn't quite won my love yet. I'll always be an Audi guy, its what I grew up doing. That and classic Japanese. I'll have other opportunities as an s chassis in the future.
>>14211618
I know what you mean, living in Canadia we have a lot more options when it comes to cars, especially through importing. So to me it's not worth paying $7k for a beaten S13 when I could have a perfect S15 with under 100k's for $11k
>>14207413
>>14209742
>>14210084
plz add me to your cool crew =3
>>14204512
Do any of you own an s-chassis not for drifting? I was interested in buying one as it checked off a lot of the things i was looking for in my next car: RWD, relatively lightweight, technically not a 2-seater, available in the $3-8k range.. But it seems like people only like them to modify, and to drift. Overall driving experience and agility don't seem to be why people get them. Are they any fun to drive if you're not going sideways? Would i be underwhelmed if i got one without the intention of drifting it? I live in a big city, where's it fun to go fast on winding highways. Sporty handling and quick acceleration are what im after. i'm not around backroads and suburban parking lots where I can go drifting and stuff. Do s-chassis' not make sense for me?
>>14213808
drifting is more of a suspension setup. you dont need to set it up that way
>>14213887
sure, but my question was is a drift setup pretty much the only setup worth having on this car? ie is the car a poor choice for non-drift setups?
>>14213158
do you own all those?
Nice investment
>>14214013
You can set them up pretty well for grip. Drifting can be done with any suspension setup, but most guys run a fair bit of camber up front with as little as possible on the rears. Angle of your rear cradle setup can effect it, same as your sway bars, castor etc. My s13 drives pretty nicely in the touge. Depends what you want it for, not much of a grand tourer though if thats what your thinking. They're just lightweight sports cars that have a decent platform for motorsports.
>>14214016
yup....s15 in a bit..when its legal
>>14211618
I'll try to get your name out there for a few friends here in 206 land, when are you plannin on going?
>>14215054
I've got a bit, I'm not headed back until spring quarter. That's much appreciated. Its an auto which sucks but it's only got 138k miles and has been taken care of, clean title too. Could use some lovin on the front fender since the previous owner was older and backed into it with his truck. Other than that it's got some dings and dents but nothing that can't be easily popped out with a heatgun and a firm push.
>>14215102
>>14215054
I've got the 5spd pedal assembly as well as the clutch fluid cylinder to go with it.
>>14215102
>>14215120
https://seattle.craigslist.org/est/cto/5348702759.html
This you right? I'll get your name out.
>>14215137
Yes that's me. I appreciate you spreading the word! I know the price is a bit high for an auto car but everything around here is so expensive and finding a clean title car that hasn't been beaten to shit is so hard nowadays.
>>14215149
I was just talking with some friends, and they said it was a bit much for an auto, but as a manual they would do it.
I got other friends who will do it too.
>>14215157
Yeah I understand. I've got some wiggle room. I'm not going to keep it when I head over since I really need an awd car, it's just that I have a specific car that I really want to buy from a buddy that he's giving me a good deal on.
bbbbump
Have a week off work coming up, need to get my sideskirts mounted, then taken to get painted and fitted up properly. Still waiting on a new front bar that I ordered before christmas which I want done. Catch can is finished from one of my mates, looks super tidy, just need to get my rocker covers powder coated and run the hose then that'll be finished. Have got about a month and a half before a big car show we have called all japan day. I tend to avoid car shows but this one has some really nice classics from old rotarys to mental gtr's and a dude with a crazy rb26 sil80.
>>14216674
>pic related
>>14213808
I've got a good friend who built his car for grip/time attack and I can attest that thing freaking rips. One helluva driver too. Always fun talking with him because you'll always learn something. Especially if you're both on the track (taught me the proper lines to drive at Brainerd International Raceway last year at PowerCruise USA #6). Had an SR in it and went 1J shortly after the Sport Street feature. I feel like that might be the way my car is going, no drifting for me.
Pic related is said car.
>>14216764
That'd be pretty fun. Wish we had decent tracks here. They're meant to be making a new track at the moment and our only other track is shit.
You can definately setup an s chassis to do well in grip, mine handles pretty nice, need some new tyre soon as they feel pretty off now. Drifting is fun aswell, have a few mates who are really into it but they're cars are always broken and wrecked from all the abuse they cop.
>>14213158
>tfw no s collection
>>14216764
Thats a nice s14. Really like the tire size.
>>14213808
I have my 240 set up for grip. It's all about how you set up your suspension. A good set of coils helps a lot too and I've found its better to keep the oem rear sway bar if you're going for grip. Also don't forget some good tires.
i hate how the banner needs a pic of my car from the roached side. oh well. pulled the thermostat yesterday and it rained today so i went sliding around a little. probably gonna head out later tonight also.

which is better s13 coupe or hatch?

coupe, hatch is for stance fags
>>14222722

kinda tempted to try to trade for an S14 tho....
small dump because i'm drunk as hell
selling my concord 11s later today so thats my welded diff for sure

fuck
i dont think i'll regret my drunk purchase of Option and Drift Tengoku magazines from 1998 in the morning, do you??
one of my really close friends actually picked up an S15, which isnt a big deal in Canada or Australia but we're in the USA so its pretty special.
based odyvia is the best non-oem front end swap
s14 with an s13 front is pretty neato too. s14s take any front end well imo, kinda like FDs.
out of the ordinary.... wonder what it runs in the 1/4.. anybody know?
ive been pounding fireball all night and its damn near 5:00 am..
>>14223510
Surely not. Even if you can't read moon, the pictures are always great to look at!

i stopped drinking in 2012 after my buddies graduation party when i got way too drunk and apparently tried to sleep in the road... ive been binge drinking the past 5 nights.... didnt drink at all before this... whatever tho...
i gotta figure out my fuckin power steering too. trying to drift without it is a whore.
>>14223560
Zaku!!!!!!! hahaha, Oridos face in that is so funny wen he puts it up. idk if youve ever played the D1 PS2 game, but theres actually Zakus Sunny available to drift when you unlock it.
>>14204512
i want this FRP vent so bad. GTR garage used to sell them and i cannot find them fucking ANYWHERE now. imagine that in a chuki bumper. it would look so good.
fuuuuuuuuuuck

I have an s13 problem. When I turn my headlights on (HIDs) the passenger side one doesn't come on and the high beam indicator stays on no matter what. The drivers side one works fine. What do?
>>14223518
this guy knows
>>14222246
fuck man theres tons of s13s/214s here but barley any s12s or older
>>14222712
hatch all day
>>14213158
Datsun Man.
So my pos is still running hot. Probably didn't get all the air out since it happened almost immediately.
>>14225298
Get all the air out. Ka has a bleed valve on top
>>14225307
I know I've bled it before when it had the same issue 3 months ago.
>>14225298
Bleed it, drive for a bit, park so your nose is up in the air, bleed it again. Check your fluids, maybe even go as far as heading to a shop and having your system pressure tested, there could be a large blockage in your rads veins.
>>14225539
I forgot to mention thermostat again, you have to test it before installing to make sure it actually opens. I've had quite a few that are faulty from the box.
woo hoo boys, woke up with no hangover and it supposed to rain tonight. any plans for your shitbox today guys??
>>14225298
apexxxx just take it out. you will love it. i just took my shit out, poured coolant in until it came out of the bleed valve and my shits golden. i was romping on it for an hour last night with no issues at all. Water Wetter helps too, even if most additive stuff is snake oil.
>>14225539
>>14225546
Allright thanks m8
>>14225569
Take what out? The thermostat?
>>14225575
yes. the entire thing. run your car without it. then if it does overheat you know its your water pump. i dont daily my s13 so i dont give a shit about the heater working well. it stays cool as fuck under heavy load and thats all i need.
Not sure who this guy is but I see him all the time in my town (NE tennessee) but I only see him parked, never in his car. Would leave a nice car dude note but I'm not sure how he'd feel about it.
>>14225660
he'd probably like it man, most s-chassis guys ive met in person are really cool about their cars.
based GP sports. tempted to sell everything i own and go this direction lmao
>>14225693
alright, thanks man. ill leave one next time i see his car. should i go under wiper blade or on the window of the door?
>>14225713
wherever works, not too big of a deal id imagine.
>>14225593
Idk about that. Pretty sure its just air in this case.
>>14225878
yeah im sure its not a big deal. just give it a shot if you keep having problems tho dude. i was weary of trying at first too
Got some packages in today, SAFC II,Turbo timer, shifter extender and weeb stickers.
>>14224461
probably your ballast m8. get rid of the lame ass hids and just run the H4 conversion.
>>14224461
>>14227620
Pretty much this. If you want some brighter headlights go raybrigs.
>>14227620
>>14227734
My what? It came with HIDs and they look fine to me so I don't want to spend much more.
The genuine Nissan parts sticker on the box allows me to rice my car with a clear conscious.
>>14228226
unpainted factory rice
>>14228258
nice one m8
>>14228302
now i just need to find cheap lights to go in it & how to wire it
>>14228258
Pls tell me you can buy genuine plastic ones
>>14206828
A bunch of Nissan engines use the same connectors, go to a junkyard and clip a bunch off a harness. I know vh45 are the same and I think vg.
If you absolutely wanna buy new I think you can get them from wiring specialties too
>>14229361
Yes for 1 million shekels
>>14208511
I paid 2k for mine stock 2 years ago, riced it myself
>>14209742
Gotta take a decent pic so I can be a cool guy too
Thinking about buying an s14 shell as a new project car. What engine would you guys recommend besides an ls.
>>14230072
Did u spray your lip yourslef?
>>14230982
That's macaroni and cheese duct tape with a layer of neon pink duct tape on top
>>14207413
Is first column bottom row anon from Miami? I see one just like it parked all the time.
https://youtu.be/sx7GgiafqUk
So basically did what this goy did just now and the stream came out instantly. So how do I know it worked other than trial and error. Used coolant tho instead of water in his bid.
>>14231988
Are you not mixing coolant and water? Should be running just 50/50
>>14232283
Well its premixed 50/50
>>14231065
Nice
>>14227789
HID in halogen housing are shit. Just buy some H4 housings.
But to anwser your question, I don't have a clue. EL-20 in the FSM will help you sort out your issues. Pic related.
>>14231988
My trick is to jack up the car so the nose is damn high and bleed it like that. Once jacked up add coolant and start the car. Keep an eye on the temp gauge, once it's warm check fluid. Continue adding fluid until you have some just sitting in the funnel just like in that guys video. While doing this massage the upper radiator hose, pretty much push it down followed by pulling up on the hose. Air tends to get trapped in that section and that will help remove the air. Finally once the coolant is getting warm you should see the fluid level rise in the funnel. Turn the car off and throw the radiator cap back on. Make sure there is coolant in the overflow tank as it will suck fluid back in.
I've been able to bleed my KA in one shot doing it that way every time. My manifold bleed screw is frozen so I don't bother with it.
>>14232626
Well I test drove it and its idling rough but no temp spikes. Might just need fresh gas idk. I'll try your method. So take off the bleeder screw while the car is on right? And basically do the same thing? Pour until stream comes out and massage the hoses?
>>14232626
Just looked at it today they're not even HIDs. It turned out just to be a loose connection. Haha
>>14232838
With my method you don't need to touch the bleeder screw. By jacking up the front you make the radiator the highest point in the system.
>>14233427
Why did you think you had HIDs? Nice to hear you fixed your issue though.
>>14230072
Dats a lot of shekels
>>14233576
Ok. If it fucks up again I'll try your method.
>>14234887
jesus christ, its not rocket science.
>>14234901
when i attempted to run an eletric drag waterpump on my ka, it took like like 3 times to finally bleed the air out
LOL
>>14234901
It's actually a harder than normal system to bleed due to the position of the bleeder screw and radiator. It forms weird air pockets that usually take a couple of tries.
>>14204553
swap control arms?, they're straight i swear
boom, and i'm drunk again.
one of my fav hatches
anybody have more s-chassis advertisements??
>>14236411
Da fuck happened to that poor car?
c'mon wheres my aussie s-chassis bros
post your s15s i'm jealous of them
>>14236422
>>14236424
1997 japan happened. want me to post even earlier s-chassis show shit??
>>14236427
I don't have an s15 unfortunately :(
Where abouts in straya are you?
>>14236433
well i'm American, i'm from Washington haha. this is my hatch >>14223618
based truck engine worst version of the s13 available lol. does the job in the rain though with the open diff.
>>14236432
Atleast that one doesn't have the crazy veilside shopping list shit.

Ahh okay well the blue ones mine, have a mate with an s15 and it's pretty nice all round. Nothing special but they're nice to drive.
>open diff
Anon pls
>>14236440
Shiiiit I thought it was the ball bearing turbo body kit
>>14236441
a really close friend just got a non-turbo here in the states which is pretty rare, seeing as S15s are illegal as fuuuuuuck. just a track and show car
and im welding the diff soon okay i promise
>>14236442
yes bro u dont melt down ur blown turbos for bodykitz?? fuck ebay bro we metal body kits now
koukis are cool but i'm bummed about all of the kids who swap duraflex front ends onto perfectly clean zenkis :(
i'm really jealous of the selection of parts even you ausbros have, getting anything in the US is expensive if you want real JDM stuff.
>>14236446
The n/a autech things are pretty quick for an 2.0l, not as good as turbz obviously but still kinda cool. Can you actually import cars for track use only even if they're banned? We can here and it ends up being about $3-5k cheaper than getting an import registered.
Haha better off getting shims m8. They last longer and work better. I have a kaaz 2way which is really good/10.
All dem downforces
i keep duping my own files
>>14236468
Try jesse streeter for good prices on parts from japland. Look him up on bookface or I can find his email.
>>14236472
i'm not sure about the whole legality, honestly, but R34s are totally illegal here but plenty of people import them under a law that lets them be driven less than like 2500 miles a year or something? im not certain, i'm sure someone will reply calling me a retard for not knowing the laws lol.
>>14236481
oh i know about jesse streeter. didn't realize he was actually so easy to get stuff through. i'll have to get a hold of him when the time comes for sure. i follow him on instagram, the guys insane behind the wheel.
these are like my s-chassis rare pepes
>>14236486
Yeah I have no clue about your laws haha.
Yeah man his cars are pretty mental aswell, probably one of the better soundinh sr's I've heard in his white one. He generally sends containers back here to oz but he'll ship parts anywhere. Don't forget his prices are in strayan monopoly money
>>14236498
does he trade for marmite or victoria bitter
>>14236501
I heard he prefers red tinnies m8
always found the displays without wheels kinda funny lol
Wow, op pic really looked like this
>>14236505
fuck lmfao
>>14229361
this one is a genuine plastic, not fiberglass
tell me why i should do a sil80 conversion
http://vancouver.craigslist.ca/bnc/cto/5402054776.html
It's back up for sale
>>14225878
I used to park my car on a driveway, plus jack the front passenger corner of the car up to move all the air bubbles to the water neck.
I have a PBM swirl tank that's also tapped into where the bleed valve used to be and that made it really easy to bleed.
>>14239720
>rebuilt
>>14239855
The whole car has been redone, of course it's rebuilt. It's more solid than any "clean" title s13 rolling around.
>>14239239
if you have a coupe it will look sexier
but fuck me is it expensive
Saw a pretty sik coupe at the meet today
>>14240947
noice
o yea boys im drunk again
sold those sneakers today
welded diff soon and should make it for the trackday on the 23rd
hot road this hot road that
so i got the magazines from this >>14223510
post and yes i do not regret them
the first cars in the drift tengoku are kouki s14 front sil80s and theyre fucking based. didn't realize people were doing shit that extreme back then honestly.
Yes, this is a very recent pic.
>>14236422
>>14232838
I've had great success having the bleeder screw out, then filling the radiator, then starting the engine to let it heat up. First you'll see steam coming out the port, then bubbles, then solid coolant (usually in a matter of seconds of each other, so be ready). When its solid coolant for a second or two, get the screw back in place. Wear gloves, shits hot.
>>14243600
Also, go for a short neighborhood drive then park and let it cool down. Sometimes the system will 'burp' into the overflow then be golden after it cools.
The KA24DE really is a pain to bleed, but its good for years after you get it right.
>>14243607
>>14243600
thanks for the advice m8
