Greddy Turbo kit on s-13??

[collk88]

i was looking at Greddy's 20g turbo kit for the s-14, however im wondering if there is much needed to make it fit on an s13. Is it worth trying it out?? or is it just a waste of time. Howcome everyone has to cater to the s-14. i think its ugly compared to an s-13 anyway.

Maybe I shouldn't answer you since you are putting down my car.

You'll need to extend the downpipe as the S14's cat is much closer to the head and the S13's is below the car. The piping will probably need some modification. Especially if you are adding an intercooler. The oil lines and injectors w/rail should bolt up just fine.

The E-Manage isn't supported for use with the S13. It can be made to work, but the preprogrammed map will not work with it and there may be a big limitation with using the Stock S13 MAF.

ah... i c. oh sorry i didnt mean to make fun of the s-14. i just hate how there is more stuff out for the s-14. seems like the neglect the s-13 if you dont have an sr20.

hey dont feel bad im running into the same problems with my s13. i have a shop that will put one on for like 8 grand. yeah right i think i'll just find the parts and build it my self. if you find anything let me know. i'm just about out of ideas.

8 grand just for a kit? Thats bonkers.

Glad I found this. 95 engine, maf, and ecu in my 90 s13. Limitations of using the greddy turbo kit on my car. possiblilties of also using the intercooler kit. Whats the benefits of using this kit aside from it coming already kitted together versus piecing the manifold, turbo, etc together. my plan was to buy the turbo kit and the eo1, possibly the intercooler kit.

Even if you have a 95 KA24de it's still OBD-1 and the Greddy Kit is OBD-II. I think that's what you're asking. Of course the limitations is that the intercooler piping won't be perfect for your application and of course you'll need to get the emanage reprogrammed. In the end you end up spending too much money for something you could have put together yourself for way less. The greddy kit is cool if you have an OBD-II equipped 240 other than that it's just a pricey hassle.

not all are, my 95 240sx is obd-II

What if I have a fabricator that can do the pipiing the the intercooler? Besides re- mapping the emanage(getting e01 to re program), what else needs to be done?

[Philsnotfalling]

For a 95 with obdI application all is need to make work is the greddy eo1 system, an extra expense. otherwise, 96-98, its a direct bolt up. but for a 91-94 engine and wiring harness I would say no. Differnt egr stuff different ignition system, ie how the distributor is set up. Mine however has a 95 set-up but in a s13 chasis. I would expect the only mods for the greddy kit that would have to be done would be the plumbing for the turbo and intercooler. Also I would expect the downpipe to be different. But versus piecing a turbo kit together. Having the plumbing done, turbo, manifold, downpipe, injectors, intercooler, and all everything else. so again whats the benifits of one or the other?

[BomexS13]

Question...

Since the turbo is designed for the s14, will the manifold fit the s13?

[Philsnotfalling]

a ka24de is a ka24de...the manifold will bolt up. I believe the down pipe will be different though.

[BomexS13]

Yea I know what you mean, but I have a 95 KA in my S13(89). THey have to use the s13 exh manifold since the s14 didn't fit. THey were saying that the space between the engine and the strut wall is smaller compared to S14's.<---is this true?

[Philsnotfalling]

I would imagine that even though the engine bays would be different that for design sake the manifold would need be the same. The only possible problem in all of this would be the plumbing... mainly for an intercooler. but trial and error will be the only way to accurately determine
