No idea on the other ones.
Dang, I didn't know they could be had for that cheap. Maybe I'll trade in my 1990 R32 Skyline wheels. Heavy a** 16" wheels :tisk:

Then again, my S14 has been basically down for about 4 years now. Sad.

Well, like Alex stated above. At least now you can repaint the rest of the car too :bigthumb:
Now that you mention it though, my roof doesnt have any clear left on it either :frown:

Goddamn California sun!

Even at like 200 degree coolant temps, my oil pressure barely falls under 25 psi.
:orly: wow, we have the same gauges too. My SR reads about 1 bar at hot idle (~190 degrees) on 10w-30 and ~850-900 rpm & ~55-60 psi at 3200. FSM calls for > 11 psi at idle & 45-56 psi at 3200 rpm no load. Only SR's I've heard of running 20-25 psi at hot idle were fresh rebuilds and/or ones idling way too high. I enjoy a few beers while working on the car and listening to music. Mine sat for some time bc I treid to do too many things at one time when I went back to school and no longer had the time or $$ Now it's just time for tires and an alignment. With this first check from the new job, that'll happen soon :biggrin:

Yeah, on the KA's FSM it says it's okay as long as it's over 11psi.
Maybe the previous owner put in a new pump or something? I'm not sure, it says Nissan on it still.

Right now I have my front crank and alternator taken out, and the oil seal I ordered from FRsport already came in today! I picked the cheapest option too, I love FRsport.

Edit:
My dad just found some connections with his friends in Japan and they said they'd be happy to go to junkyards or w/e and find me parts I want. :iconeek
I just need to make a list. :woot:

About all I can do is listen to music, anything else is too distracting/annoying. I can barely even have friends over when I work on my car because I feel like they might mess something up haha.

Razi, you're lucky you live so close to FR Sport, it takes about 5 days for things to get to me. It seems like every web site that I order from is in California haha.

Weird huh.
California is one of the strictest on car modifications, but there are a ton of shops out here.

Whoa that's a cool pod, Frank.
The guy going to the junkyard isn't all that good with cars though. :(
I don't think he'll know how to find and take out the sensor and harness that goes with that.
I'm a bit iffy on trying to get him to get the S13 digital climate control too.

How many hurdles are there to swap a V8 into a S14 in Cali? Even possible?

wd, as far as i know, it has to be a newer engine than the s14. and it has to be out of another car (not a truck, suv, ect), and you have to leave the smog stuff on it. but i think that is it mainly.

no cause you can make an ls1 legal in almost anything. a quick call to a smog ref would answer your questions though.
