you must either a) suck or B) be lieing cause i have done alot of both and weed and motor vehicle skills dont mix. i got lucky once when i was snowboarding and i had like the best day of my life trick wise but otherwise i tend to suck. ps i dont endorse drug use as i have quit.....

[numbnuts240]

here is the video that needed compressed. i am finally uploading it. dont make fun of my mess ups http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VbGcffQUdZE

here's my review (granted i didn't hear it since i watched it at work and my comp is on mute):

for the most part, pretty good. the strange looks at the camera made me giggle. it would have been epically funny if you stalled before leaving the garage and then did the old face palm. i bet your protein intake skyrocketed after all those bugs you probably ate driving without a windshield. the car resembled the knightrider car when it comes up the hill at the end. your camera man is faster than your car, you need nawz.

love the wheels, love the motor work, love the stance, can't wait to see that beast all painted up and pretty. good work brotha .

i just emailed this post to your dad

well the energy suspension rear subframe complete replacment bushings that supposeably work for the s13 dont. i will need to figure some sort of washer set up to make them work.

[White Comet]

hmmm, what exactly is the problem> talk to greeneyes, he has all energy suspension bushings and had no problems

[idahotuner]

he doesnt have these though. i checked out his build. he has pbm inserts/ spaces and energy suspension inserts. these you actually cut out the old bushing. but i think i figured out a way to fix it. pics will come manana

[Kckouki]

when is the burnout vid ?!?!?!?!

[White Comet]

iirc he had those before teh pbm pieces, but i could be wrong

[idahotuner]

when is the burnout vid ?!?!?!?!

saturday hopefully. or friday night

iirc he had those before teh pbm pieces, but i could be wrong

awe ok i might hit him up.

[idahotuner]

ok here is huge update.

new subframegetting the car jacked updropping the rear subframedroppedno rear subframe under the cartook the differential outbye bye to open differentialseverythting stripped off the sub frameparts layed outcar without subframecleaning parts upgetting ready to paint them.and here is them bolted up onto the freshly painted subframe and parts

gettign ready to swap out differentials to HLSDparts all laid out in orderchanging the ring gearhere it is in the housing

pianting the read differential housing

and on the subframe

here is waht i had to do to make the energy suspension busings work on my car.the metal slides were to long. so i had to cut about 1/3 an inch offcause when i would botl them down the nusts would bottem out on the them and not allow it to compress the bushings and make them expand and hold the frame in place.

and i got it o nthe car tonightand i found out my fan belt doesnt need to be replaced. the tensioner screw had vibrated almost al lthe way out. and i tightended it up and it is good now.

well that is my big update lol

[idahotuner]

some pics i missed.

bushingsand my IDAHOTUNER plates buddies GSX

[datsun2401972]

Do the rear wheels look lined up now?

[idahotuner]

deffiently sits alot better. it just needs the camber set exactly the same on either side and we will be good to go.

[cmoody2006]

Dam That looks really good! I might just have to attempt this on my car... What all did you do to your diff? Please explain or let me in on a site or something.... I need to clean and paint all my stuff while I have the motor out.... Oh btw I have some burnout clips now.... They are only like 15 secs long but w/e my friend wanted to get it on his phone and I sent it to my e-mail. The link's to those are in my build if you wanna check it out...

[idahotuner]

hey i will check them out. i followed this and used comment sense when swaping differentials http://www.nicoclub.com/articles.php?id=245575

[thefro526]

I <3 you for making this thread. It's better than TV and it's updated everyday! I vote your for greatest build thread of all time.

[idahotuner]

^ THANKS MAN.

if i could afford to get her painted she might be worthy of ride of the month lol.

i doubt. but i am almost out of things to do for now because of lack of money. because i have to save for school now.

[JRPS13]

i wanna see some pics with that very colorful subframe sitting on the car!!

[idahotuner]

lol i will take some tomorrow.. i just set it down so i could get at the front of the car to work on stuff

[idahotuner]

I LOVE MY NEW HLSD >>>>> thats all i have to say.

[sbird1]

Those pics look real nice. Way to go Benny!

[idahotuner]

well i had my clutch stick to the floor. while driving and so i had to drop my transmission. this part fell off when i dropped itright after i dropped itthe broken partdoes any one know waht that part is called that the throw out bearing slides onto^ this part was not lub when the clutch was assembled i think. because the thing not sliding back and forth easily on here was the reason for it breaking. so if any one knows that that part is called and if they are interchange able between the SR and KA it would be great.

here is s pic from going to the meet with my buddies. even thoguth my car couldnt make itstock sti cept for exhaust. and gsx with a butte load of upgrades, just needs retuned.

and a badarse pic of my car

[ryan15]

ok here is huge update.

parts layed out

well that is my big update lol

I have the same ebay exhaust with same resonator and everything on my SR`d s14 and your sounds way better than mine lol, IDK my first swap was an RB so maybe im stuck in the past, nice progress though man, everythings comming along.

Ryan

[idahotuner]

i think the way your exhaust sounds isa direct result of how your motor is running. i have been running into alot of moddified cars that sound like 2 strokes almost. and i think alot of it has to do with tunning. if you havea dead on tune then your exhaust is going to sound alot better.

and i dont mean to brag but i think out of all the cars i have ran into lately my exhuast sounds the best. maybe i ma lucky

[Kalypso]

I just saw that s15 helical's are only 200!? thats a good deal, its time for the vlsd to go.
