wut are ur plans for the car if ur going with that big of a turbo, prolly gunna be pretty laggy if ur not keeping the car in higher revs.

idk, thinking about a 30R, cuz ive been reading alot, and most poeple switch out the 35R, for a 30r if there not all highway driving.

hey man i got one question for u how did u mount your plate in the front like that did u mount it to the bumper or a sub frame or wat i would love to do this to my car thx

In NY its illegal to have to front lic plate. to slove that most people (if youve seen a ny plate) bent (not cut) the bottom part where it says empire state. then taking the top part were it says NY you bend 90 degrees backwards. i mounted mine to that bar that runs under the bumper that has bolts in it. simply took out one bolt, put licence plate up slide the bolt threw and voila... did it at work with a table vice, block of wood and then a 10mm socket. takes 5-10 minutes.

Sounds like you own a 240, haha. Those wheels look REALLY sunken, I honestly think the stock SE wheels would be better. Hopefully spacers fix it.

ya, i might throw on my old SE rims to see if there better, at the monent im not in the mood to spend anymore money one the car, thats all i ever do. maybe in mid aug ill get some new rims with spacers. or i might just buy some spacers from tirerack.com

nice car man i like the under the hood set up you got there...

thanks im all KA>* only other setup i would run is a RB25. but honestly the s13 chassis flexes to much. theres about 12 people within a 50 mile radius of me that have sr's 1 Kade-t, 1rb25, 1rb20. and thats about it. hopefully ill take some more pics of tommrow, engine bay looks a little better with no battery or tray.

Megan Racing Street Series Coilovers
Ebay intake
SR20 370cc Injectors
Tuned ECU
S14 Cam Trick (basically its cammed)(sort of)
3in Header back exhaust
Test pipe
Upper front strut bar
Gutted Hatch, Rewired the car from Front seats back
Short Shift
98 Silvia Front Seats
Emissions out. (EGR, Carbon Canaster,etc)
Mishimoto Radiator
Battery Relocated to the rear

Now the reason for this post:
First and formost i'd like to thank steve (91240) and my last job (they screwed me over on 3 paychecks i sued for the amountback only, they gave me extra to get outta there hair and not goto court) to make this possible.

Heres my plan for the 240 this winter/spring. and i garuntee it wont be out any earlier than june 09

Rb25det Series 1
SYKO mounts
Driveshaftshop.com 1pc aluminum
3inturbo back exhaust (still un deceided on brand)
Greddy intake pluenum
FMIC+piping
Walbro 255 pump.
Stock turbo (til i money for one)
Ifiniti Q45 TB
Greddy RS BOV.
New waterpump,gaskets, more regular stuff.

In about a month ill buy a winter beater, im taking the car off the road in october. Plan to tear out the KA, tranny and drive shaft, and start the prep for paint in dec/january. My dads friend owes him 2000, and thats what he does for a living so we are trading to help eachother out. Paint is gunna be Honda Fuji blue pearl, or Nissan Bayside Blue with a pearl added. Interior is right now going through the redo to all black interior. i bought a black carpet outta a 93 hatch, to get rid of my grey one i have now.

In June 09 i hope to be under my 10K budget. the motorset is the most expensive, so we'll see. the Body kit i finally paid off, so thats coming soon. dont question me on rims. i have enough to worry about than a 5lug swap and brake upgrade.

But today/some of last week i spent turing my proformance to stock. im selling all SR/KA things and getting ready to go RB, as well as complete interior redo (carpet/new hatch interior)

I just gutted the whole car basically, theres nothing from the front seats and back.

Making my own cluster this week, time permitting.
Also picked up a 90 parts car!
