some dude on ka-t said that the upper water hose "heat soking" his cold pipe and he did post some thurmel (SP?) gauge reading's...

lmk if you didn't understand

Looking good,

Ali

So how would i make a heat shield to fit in between the "upper radiator hose and the cold pipe" - thats what you talking about right.

And yea i have currently got some 10mm spacers on the back and 3mm on the front just for clearance issues, but eventually i would like to get some better offset wheels and roll and flare my fenders a bit.

thanks for all the input.

i have just been enjoying driving the car lately but once i get these 370cc injectors fixed i would like to turn the boost up a little. Questions:

1. one of the injectors i have is stuck open. what would be the best thing to do, find another one, send it to get it fixed, or should i just try selling the 370's and go ahead and get something bigger. i plan on eventually getting a gt2871r but with the t25 what all would i need for say 540cc injectors, in order to get the fueling right.would a walbro pump and fpr, along with my safc, be able to be tuned to the right amount, or would i need something else.2. also what is the safest amount of boost i can run if i want to turn it up a little. i know first i got to get some injectors in, but would 9 psi be ok for daily driving. i have read that 12 psi would be ok, but i dont want to push it too much.3. i am also looking for an ebc, so if you have got any suggestions let me know.

thanks

any suggestions on an electronic boost controller and also i was thinking about going walbro fuel pump, 540cc inj., fuel pressure regulator, and fuel pressure gauge. what do you think?

thanks

looks nice...i got a long way to go for mine. Coilovers are the first thing on my list!

[hawk240drifter]

thanks man,yea the coilovers are going to make it look a lot different and a lot better.

well i found out that the turbo timer i have is actually out of an s13, supposedly it was a factory option in japan, and was pretty rare. also, i figured out how to get around my keyless entry problem i stated earlier. it was so simple. i just ended up cutting the ign. on wire for the keyless entry system. now everything is working awesome. the turbo timer looks like a factory option and does a good job also. i love it!!!



now im gonna be getting a ebc soon, so just wondering what yall suggested.

thanks

[Montana240]

wow great lookin set up. i can't wait to go turbo

[santana56]

i think my legs gave out

well, finally got my exhaust in the mail so here's some pics. i love it and it sounds awesome too. it is a full stainless steel 3 in. ebay catback. i got it from the seller lokakech. Great service and fast shipping. I was debating weather to go Blitz nur spec or this one, and im sure glad i got this one. it was $145 shipped!



very low to the ground-- about 3 1/2 inches!

and now for the bad news!!!!!!

i think ive blown my head gasket. for the last couple days it has been smoking a little white snoke on take off, but yesterday after installing the exhaust, it was poring out white smoke while i was driving it. im gonna get a pressure checker today and check it out.

thanks for all the reply's

[SIDEWAYS SECRETS]

dude i would send ya a pm, but i dont know how.. haha.. im new to this forum, but not new to the s chassis or ka.

i have a cometic hg, mr gasket exhaust man gasket, thermal intake gasket, and full felpro headgasket set.its yours for 160 shipped.get that gorgeous thing back on road!

[Spinn3r]

clean job man!, yeah it does take time, but worth it umm yep that sucks! do a pressure test, if you go with head gasket go with cosworth plus arp head studs, but i bet you knew that. white smoke is from, bend valves, headgsket, piston rings. ;-/ unless you get crap load of white smoke, blown turbo. I would probably pull the piston out which ever cyl shows you low compression , you dont want to do the job twice

good luck, nice car
