[mente240sx]

yall gay

had you waited a wee bit longer, mashall, i'd have been able to sell you my t28 since i'm upgrading

what up dustin! how much you think you gonna sell the t28 for? im starting to buy **** to turbo my ka.

and marshal... man... you have been working really hard on this car = ( that sucks i hope you get it running right and soon! that way we can worry about turboing MY ka! lol jk. no but seriously i hope it all goes well and fast!

marshal, can we do a compression test on my ka? if so when? i wanna know how healthy my ka is before turboing it! do work

[BlackZenki82]

free compression tests whenever... just come on by the house, ****'s easy as hell and will tell you a lot about your motor... Ryan AKA clawhammer is wanting to do one as well on his SR... just give me a ring or text...

and yeah, i hope i get this car right... it's still good for daily driving, i just need to stay off the boost... git the waste gate preloaded to about 8-9psi, might have to REpreload it to around 6-7 just to keep it safe...

[Justinians_2:40]

What up Marshal, this is Justin, I just changed my SN. I guess you did all this after I stopped by today, wish I had more time, I would have stuck around and helped out. It sucks that this guy screwed you over so bad, I had a bad feeling when I saw how screwed up all the wiring was. BTW thanks for the ECU I finally went a day without burning through a whole tank of gas.

[BlackZenki82]

no problems bro...

i don't think this guy intended to "screw me over" he was like 17 and knew nothing really about a the car or motor, he was just a kid...

it's a cold pool that i jumped into naked, so now i have to get used to the water if i wanna keep on swimming

[Clawhammer]

When we pulled that first coilpack, I was like mother of God....

[mRodiek]

you should definitely rebuild! never give up never surrender!this is just an excuse to make her faster than ever

[BlackZenki82]

update is this, my engine is screwing shot, i got bad oil ring lands on Cly#2 and needs a complete rebuild or swap... screw this car i'm so pissed.... bout ready to give up on it... all this work i've already got into it... sonofabitch

[mattblancarte]

Bummer on the #2 cylinder. When I read that you were blowing oil into the engine bay from the breather nipple... I knew it was bad news.

Just roll the sleeves up and rebuild for reliability, then power.

[nevertheless]

Those are some nice gauges, and a badass bunkbed..

[S13Joe]

i like how the guys engine is shot to shi* and all u can think about is a bunk bed lol.

[FinkenS14]

Nice car man but IMO shud have atleast cleaned the engine bay up before you put the motor back in...

[BlackZenki82]

Nice car man but IMO shud have atleast cleaned the engine bay up before you put the motor back in...

the motor was already in when i bought it....

i like how the guys engine is shot to shi* and all u can think about is a bunk bed lol.

lol thanks man lolol

[IDRFT95S14]

sucks man i would yank that ***** out of thererebuild the mofo ,just take your time this time

[xrproto07]

Indeed a rebuild is the best way to go, and while your at it throw on a five lug conversion and rock the stock SE's until you get some baller rims

[nevertheless]

I was trying to bring some good out of his update, but did you see that bunkbed?

[137]

When we pulled that first coilpack, I was like mother of God....

thats always fun to pull out a spark wire or coil pack to find a cylinder full of oil, lol I was like wtf. but yeah the inner gaskets took a **** on you, eventually running it like that will screw up the rings hence why you're getting blowby on 2 and it was probably dumping fuel into that cylinder too and not firing.

[BlackZenki82]

hahaha i love ya guys, and yes, the bunk bed is bad ***... it's got the top bunk, and underneath the lower bunk slides out, and has a full closet in the back where i i keep all the computer stuff... it's got multiple drawers that i keep my sons clothes in for when he comes over.... it's not too bad... pretty cool even though it set me back 1k... dresser, 2 beds, desk, and closet in one? it's worth it.. plus when i my son comes over, he doesn't have to sleep on the inflatable bed.....

anyways...

life gives you lemons, make lemonade... this now gives me the opportunity to learn how to rebuild an engine, something i was planning on doing later on down the road anyways in my search of MOAR POWAZ.. so cool deal, as i rebuild it, i learn, and while i'm in there, i can beef it up with stronger parts, to make it a more reliable engine for me in the long run

granted, at this point i may be broke, but ya know what? it's JUST A CAR.. it can be fixed, when i bought this car, i bought it as a project car, i just didn't know it would be THIS much of a project, but after some research, reading write ups, it seems like something i can comfortably undertake myself, with the help of a friend or two...

[Ritsuzen]

You must be an awesome dad, i always wanted a bunk bed....not only that your into tuning cars which in my book is always a +++++++$$$$$$$$$

[BlackZenki82]

alrighty, after long consideration, and thought, i've decided i'm going to buy another SR from JDM-Online, but just the long block, and swap all of my parts onto it, and sell the old motor and supporting ****e... things i will be selling to cover the cost of the long block are as follows..

SR block w/head minus cams (bad oil land rings in Cyl #2)SR heads, one loaded with springs, minus the cams, and one bare blacktop head in good orderBrian Crower Stage 2 camsGReddy Profec B spec II Electronic boost controller with all wires and stuffi am also considering selling my S14 VLSD (no J30/Z32 hybrid low gear ratio stuff)

i will have a for sale thread on these items if your interested in any of them, or just PM me (preferred it if you did PM).

i will post a link to the F/S in this post later on an EDIT note so you can link directly to it from here, make it easy on ya so ya don't have to search...

DO NOT ASK TO BUY THESE THINGS IN THIS THREAD PLEASE!!! lol, just PM or send a email to [email protected]

[BlackZenki82]

alrighty guys, so i just ordered my new/used blacktop long block from JDM-online, guy sounds like a real straight up guy, and i've read some reviews, eBay feedback (not an eBay store, but sells on eBay), and 98% of customers seemed VERY pleased with the motor they got... comes with a midnight blue (although scratched), valve cover, and good compression across the board. looks like it'll be basically plug and play, just got to swap all my parts over on it and drop the bastard in WOOT WOOT!!!! might even come with a few internal goodies.... oh and it has between 50-55k miles.... time to roll back that 260.5k odometer lol

MOAR PIKTOARS!!!!!

so that's it... i got it for a decent price of $1075 shipped to my door step, and it should be arriving Monday or Tuesday of this coming week.... talk about fast shipping... now to get ready to pull the motor and trans out of the gold car, and start pulling parts off to go on this one... i will finally be able to realize the full potential of the turbo, and the SR....

stay tuned guys for the motor pull and swap pics... as well as a final answer to how this overall business will be going!!!!

[Jadesr20det]

1075 for a long block isnt really that great.....considering you got this peice and the kid shafted you on fldrift ill cut you som slack lol......i actually went to look at this thing and the kid was scared to do a compression test so i went home.....gl and keep it up

[mRodiek]

well congrats on the new long block! i just ordered a full SR from JDM-online, really nice guy NESAR over there..should be receiving mine right around christmaswoot!then you can check out my build thread yes? haha when i revive it

[BlackZenki82]

screw right i'll check it out, and keep an eye on it... post it bro, lets see how our JDM online motors do aye??

EDIT: kinda drunk, well prrettioy drunkin right now lolollks

[Clawhammer]

My neighbor found my phone in the middle of 38th! Woot! Reunited at long last. Such a ****ty way to end an awesome night.

Awesome compression test numbers: +Raping a friendly rivalry KA-T: +Losing expensive cell phone doing the above: - - -

Dude I so want that valve cover! Dark blues are my favorite color, I'd paint my car that color in a heartbeat but it's red and for me to change the color of my car, it'd be an all or nothing thing...and I can't afford to not have one spec of red paint on my car.

[BlackZenki82]

bad motor comes out today.... got the hoist, the tire (to set the motor on) and getting it done today..... updated with pics later

[BlackZenki82]

got the motor out, went out without a hitch.... talk about easy, i hope it goes in just as easy, but knowing my luck, probably not.... i also found out that the ACT stage 3 6 puck clutch has almost NO friction material left on so it will prob need to be replaced within 10-15k miles, if that, the way i drive lol...

anyways on with the pics, oh and there's a few suprises i found in my half blown SR that i didn't know i had... will fill in after pics...

getting started, pulled some IC piping and random **** off the SR, then put the piston on the hoist....random shots with stuff pulled...pile-o-parts, got bigger before the day was over though...straight gutted, if you guys could only see the damage up close on this core support and front part of the frame.... ****!!!almost ready, just had to pull off fuel rail, and unbolt the transmission brace...chain hooked up, and pulling the beast out....my boy johmar, working the hoist while i pump the jack, and manueve the motor out... he's got a bad *** Sil80, things sweet...motor out, and transmission off, ACT stage 3 6 puck, loud and yellow.... KA>SR transmission conversion pics coming up soon..... and no, the chain IS NOT on the breather "T"looks like the transmission might already be a KA>SR conversion, it's two tone.... lovely B&M SS sitting there... NOICE!!!baller *** turbo.... custom built upgraded Garret TB2804 Pulsar GTIR turbo...and my busted old SR, as she sleeps...

thats all for pics and the tear out....

now for the AWESOME little treats i found at the end of the pull.... so i randomly pulled the valve cover off, just to check and make sure the guy i bought the car from wasn't bull****ting about the Brian Crower stage 2 cams, and well he was bull****ting, but i wasn't angry, only because instead of the Brian Crowers, they were HKS Stage 2 cams, AND there was some GReddy rocker arm stoppers in there as well..... like an early Christmas!!!

well, that's all for now, i'll be pulling the cams and RAS's out of this motor tomorrow to put in my new SR that should be here around Friday.... might also work on the KA>SR conversion, who knows, i have all week, minus Christmas and Christmas eve...

more updates, with pics to come!!!!

[mRodiek]

[BlackZenki82]
