hello all, I haven't been over here much lately. Unfortunitely, I don't think I'll ever have enough cash to drop into a CA engine till I'm out of college, which I haven't even started yet. Fortunitely, I can still have fun with my car, just no CA turbo power.

I started to think about the KA-T, which I could do cheap enough, but then I decided that I just don't have the cash to drop into forced induction, so N/A KA it is, not too much is going in, I've got a couple little toys I want to add, but not much is going into the engine, more is going to suspension, and pretty mcuh, the S13 is going mild/Daily Driver for college, 'cause I got a 30mile one way commute, at rush hour, for college.

I've decided that I'm gonna do a project S30Z through college, 'cause I can't afford to have my S13 down, so I'll go to the S30, which I can guarantee will be sweet, but I can drop cash into it over 2 years. But I can promise that a CA will one day find it's way into my S13, or A S13,

This is mostly my big post saying I'm not really coming back for a while, it was good times while I was here, but I've got other things to focus my attention on now, so this isn't goodbye, just tootleoo :D

Prioritizing is keen in this lifetime "Xero" and I commend for stepping up and admitting that education takes precedence over fun. These motors will be around when you're ready, but until then "Stay Focused" and take care and definitely don't be a stranger.

good for you! education before cars. Thats what I am learning. heh, a 23yr old with 2 yrs college and probably 3 more to go with 7 cars. yup, If I had all the money Ive dumped in cars, I could put my self thru college. hind sight is always 20/20.

Hit me up thru Email with your porject S30Z. I've got some wicked junkyard engine combos. 3.0L strokers with a 1.85:1 rod to stroke ratio. a 2.8L short stroke, big bore long rod motor. the L series is turely one of the most bad *** nissan motors ever made. hell, If they had a decent DOHC head, I bet they would put the RB to shame. you can build a truely awesome S30Z for about $4000. engine, transmission, suspension and exterior.
