Since Tommy did all the pipe work on his s14, I'm sure he could hook you up.
sorry to burst your bubble shinHed...did the BOV piping my self.

Tommy DID do the intercooler pimping...which basically is hooking up the hoses, cutting the two holes, and cutting out the bumper where the intercooler is going to be placed.

NOTE!: I didn't rewire the ECU for the J4...i got an E5 Ecu, same make and model, year, and manual (though i was tempted by buying an automatic ecu knowing there is no rev limiter able to cap my car with that).

any specs on that feel free to ask, i have all the wire pin set up and the ECCS map if needed. kinda a crummy ECCS mapping but it works.

I have the J4 Pin Map, the ECCS wire diagram for the KaE and sr20det
 
I totally agree in doing your own work, but still you seem full of angst, cocaine or something??!!? Are you ok? Your intentions may be genuinely good, but it's kinda hard to read your character through a message board. I'm afraid of running into your arse while I'm in Savannah.

:eek4:

my arse? lol.
no...just spent the past 8 days fixing screw ups, doing basically a full swap that wasn't done.
last night till now has been a full 24 hour run of pulling off the manifold, replacing gaskets, re sealing the water pump due to a little leak, clean up the harness i did a couple nights ago.

lotta stress man...just pissed Tommy didn't do any of it. 1200 down the drain and I hear this isn't the first...it probably wont be the last.

i lost money, i got screwed, and i got a job in MD (home) and i need to start work tomorrow...just finishing her up...

no man it is cool. just ticked, you know.
I guess i am just frustrated...that is all. tired.

ever wondered what happens when you have a leak in your water pump seal?
here is what to do instead of scream...

Image


with that...the exhaust gasket wasn't connected right, so steve pulled that off (i didn't want to fuck my turbo up or motor any more than i had to...lol)
Image

Image


while he did that with some strain...i cleaned up the harness
Image

Image


in the middle of that, i found nuts for closing up the dump pipe to regain my equilibrium of my turbo and make it happy.

Image


back to the water pump...get it connected...

sealing her up...

you edited all your posts to say complete nonsense?

this is the weirdest thread ever. I suggest just starting over with a fresh thread.

in any case, +1 for doing your own work
good idea, i will do what i can soon enough.
scrapped the frame of the car, haven't posted the motor being out, but i ran it hard and fast.

got two 240sx's i am looking at doing now. both Ka-t's i think. not sure yet.
Defiantly Kouki though for both.

s14 shell (thinking if it is worth building or selling)

S13 or Kouki 180sx (I think it is a real one, vin has...i think Japan dashed b/w lettering) RHD

I love SR, but i was thinking maybe even RB26 in the s14.

any thoughts?

how do you like the royal purple in the diff and tranny? I'm curious becuase I love thier engine oils.
I LOVED IT TRANNY WISE.
Though...I have to be honest, i am a fan of Mobile 1 engine oil.

i would love to see a thread that went over the same motors with different oils and see which one was on top in better performance.

This is just us with his gen 240 with a kae. shocks are cut to low, so they bounce around the housing, kinda hard with the bushings bad and other stuff...but a fun car.
us being tired and retarded last night working on the Datsun 510 a little and the remnants of my car.


from now on after this vid, i am not bashing T.P., but i was ticked off when i did this RIGHT after we fixed my 240 up. so sorry for the anger.

Update: Project KA (June 2010)

have to check the car...but right now what i can think i need is...
but there is always something more you need to spend your money on...

Need Parts...

OEM Infiniti/Nissan Wheels
Upgraded (might fabricate myself) Intake Manifold...if not get a Greddy for the KA
stock exhaust manifold (maybe...checking parts later)

all i can think of now...
