Blackzenki's back in black... S14 round 3!!!

[tctomasc]

why oh why would you buy an audi to daily. IDK if you've ever tried to work on an audi, but next to everything is a hassle to do. Jobs that would normally take an hour, take about twice as long to get done on that car. Case and point, yesterday I had to replace an o2 sensor (Bank 2 Sensor 1) and needless to say i had to remove the coolant tank, push away some fuel lines, just to get somewhat near the o2 sensor. I had to cut away the wires, and it was ziptied in about 1000000 places, which i had to reziptie in a way that it would be able to move (Engine to chasis = lot of movement). Idk I'm just sayin cause I know you said you learned about cars by working on them, and I don't think an audi is a car that anyone who works on their own cars should own. f*** My boss bought a fixer upper a4, and when he finally fixed it. No one would buy it. Now his wife drives it. Fancy that.

But damn your old zenki looks dope. And yours keeps getting sicker. props

[Snappshoota]

You still got the KA?

Would you want to sell it by any chance if you still have it?

[BlackZenki82]

thanks Nytovaok.. i'm not anyone's hero tho lol

KA sold for $400 the other day

as for the Audi, the previous owner dumped like $3500 into the car a couple months before we bought it, clutch, maintainance, etc... so there's no worries.... the Audi is just a DD man... nothing special, but it's nice to have a little knock around car with leather, woodgrain, sunroof, BOSE audio, 2.8V6, 4 doors, 6 disk CD changer, ice cold AC, heated black leather seats, AWD, and 5 speed... for $3k, I'm not complaining...

oh, and tomorrow 'll be picking up a little S10 Ext cab 5 spd...

[White Comet]

s10s are awesome, sounds good. any word about the turbo lines trade?

[BlackZenki82]

i'm still working it comet.... got bigger fish to fry with some problems with the S14...

another DD!!!!!!! a 1995 Chevy S10 ext cab... a little 4 banger 5spd truck for work, dogs, trash, and parts pick up/delivery!!!

not too too bad for $2k...

[xrproto07]

Dam Black Zenki that is one sick a$$ set of car's and now small truck that you have going lol.....BUT DAM IS YOUR OLD ZENKI A BEAST!!!!!!

Looks like he has a lot of custom goodies on that notchback sr

[BlackZenki82]

4 cars.... UGH.... and i'm considering getting a S13 coupe as a drift beater when my house arrest is up...

zoltan has A LOT of custom s*** on that notch top... i offered to buy the car back for the $500 he paid me for the shell... lololol

[xrproto07]

at least you tried lol

You are inspiring me to say f-it and get another 240 as well.....um maybe an s13 coupe as well Seeing a lot of bada$$ s13 coupe's popin up and they look like pure sex!

[BlackZenki82]

hatchs are OK.... not my favorite, they just look dated to me...

coupes on the other hand... slap a sil front on it... straight SEKZ...

[xrproto07]

Any decision on the fate of your mint S14? Personally your Zenki is really clean and should be transformed into a track monster ftmw!!

i'll get good with the coupe, as i'm a novice now... i could car less with if hit a wall with a S13... my S14 on the other hand, if i wrecked this one.. it would be the end of my 240 life and i would probably go home, light some candles, run a hot bath and cut myself, down the highway and not across the street to get it done right...... and i'd move on to 350's or something...

[White Comet]

good looking truck im really jealous. i hope the s14 problems get sorted let me know about the turbo lines whenever you sort it all out

[BlackZenki82]

having some probs with the SR............

I'm thinking it's the harness....

my No. 1 coil pack, and harness... it's so JDM... literally...



Fail....

[Hoffman5982]

just clean it off and it'll be fine

[Hoffman5982]

you should build up the gold zenki and track it.you said that you hate it so if you put into a wall or something your conscience should be fine.lol

[J240sx]

Nice build, and i had the same problem with the coil pack harness. It was also on the first coil pack too.

[BlackZenki82]

LOL.... well please share with me what the problem was!!!!! PLEASE!!!! lol... leave me hanging!!!

[White Comet]

something similar happened to me too. the ground wire for the coil pack sub harness had gotten pinched in the vc. i'm pretty sure i have spare coil packs if you need one.

[BlackZenki82]

already replaced the coil pack, and the harness... i had two of each sitting in my parts shelf... thank god i hadn't sold em yet...

i did a little test today on the 240.... i took some brake parts cleaner, and sprayed all vac/boost sources, couplers, vac lines... and nothing happened... car barely runs, UNTIL i spray the air filter... spray that, and the car idles right on up and purrrrrrs like a kitten... no where else tho, only the air filter... would this be an indecator or a bad MAF? or something else???

one thing i CANNOT understand, is why my wideband pegs out lean, yet the exhaust smells like a gas pump... i mean, it might as well have gasoline dripping out the exhaust....

white comet, we'll do the deal with the mani, but give me a couple days to let the heat cool down... been spending a lot of money lately.. just got drilled and slotted rotors for the Audi, with ceramic pads, and some projector HID's (not real HID's though) for the S10 (needed cause my pass side bulb was burned, and the ebay lights were the same price as a replacement bulb lol... a couple days and i'll scoop em up, and ship the mani... then i have to find a source for my coolant return lol

[White Comet]

just sold the lines last night but i still have a brand new hot pipe with reducer couplers

[J240sx]

LOL.... well please share with me what the problem was!!!!! PLEASE!!!! lol... leave me hanging!!!

lol, I was hoping you knew. Im not sure what caused it. My harness for the coil pack was pinched between the valve cover so I moved that out of the way. I also then replaced the valve cover gasket and the spark plug gasket. Im still not sure if any of this actually fixed the problem but I haven't had any coil packs melt since then.

[BlackZenki82]

okay, weird.... check this out

replaced a fuse in the engine bay, ENG i believe, the 7.5 one, and plugged in my stock SR auto ECU, and blammo... no problems, car idles fine, boost fine, spins first second and half of third... odd...

i thinking the guy who hard wired the consult serial port into my other ECU might have f***ed something up.... looks like i'll be rocking the auto ECU for a while... time to keep an eye on my RPMS cause with that Fidanza, and that power, it got up to 7.5K+ quick....

[BlackZenki82]

oh yeah, i sold the shell of the gold car, $840 out the door...

and here's a few shot's of my Nistune RealTime set up..a lot of wires, i know... but all tucks away when in the kick panel..

[BlackZenki82]

well it's been a while since my last update, but i got my running issue figured out... it's my afro engineered turbo intake system i have rigged up... it's leaking.... unmetered air FTMFW!!!!! and come to find out that one of the bolts on my turbo inlet is stripped... SO, on to buy more stuff...

here's the list of what i already have on the way...

GRedddy Suction kit-EBAY FTW!!!!OEM Pulsar GTIR compressor housing replacment (no stripped holes!! going with a stud and bolt set up this time)Sparco pedal set-HOT!!!!a set of wig wag headlight flashers... same ones used on police cars flishflashflishflash

and some other misc couplers i've been needing to replace... get all these parts in and installed, and i should be on the way to tuning in my Z maf and 600cc's with Nistune!!!

MOAR POWAZ!!!!1!!1!one!!1!!

[BlackZenki82]

okay, so i got tired of buying and selling s***, so i finally did some work... first time i've worked on my car in about a week, something must be wrong with me....

so we all know what my ECU setup looked like before.... just a big big mess on my floor board....

time to clean things up.... ECU is in, consult ports are arranged, all is well...

CLEAN!!! USB data cable plugplugged in...all cleaned up... OEM "240SX" floor mats FTW!!consult port tucked away... still accesable by Nissan if need be...

i know, it's not much, but it's something, and i think i did a pretty fair job of it...
