NC SC CHAT

Blew up the sr in the mountains last Friday. Had an awesome run though, so nice to have the extra little power out of the corners. Anyways, started working on the vh again. It's coming along pretty well should be in here in the next few weeks hopefully. Maybe this one won't blow up

[Spent]

Damn, sorry to hear that. Ringland, sleeve, spun bearing, timing chain snapped?

Good luck with your next project. Looks like it will be nasty.

[scs13]

Haven't checked compression yet, I'm betting on head gasket and all ringlands lol doesn't even have enough compression to start or catch on any cylinder. I'll put that off until my coupe runs again. Tired of messing with that pos sr. Might end up putting my ka back together and throwing it in there until I feel like putting money in the sr.

[kouki munster]

Jesus, my car was making almost twice the power as yours and all I did was hurt the compression on #2, what the hell did you do?

[scs13]

intense mountain run, overheated, heater hose popped off, gasket for water pump blew out, lost all water. the closest place i was comfortable pulling over was too far and it was already too late. s*** happens, im not worried about it. better that i finally finish my vh project anyways, when im done with that ill consider building the sr.

Ahhh I see, you tried to melt it.

Yeah, one of the main reasons I never really took my car to the mountains to often was because after some fairly hard "spirited driving" I would knotice that my coolant temps were in the 215-220 range, which always made me a little uneasy. One more thing I'm going to remedy while my car is down getting the bottom end stuffed with forged goodies.

[scs13]

Awesome man that will be sick. Im bummed I never got to ride in it haha caseys built ka should be going in soon and the vh in this week if everything goes according to plans. We notched the frame rails and crossmember on Saturday just have to weld it up. Just need a few parts for the transmission and I'll be good to go anybody know if the j30 automatic starter is the same as a z32? Or if an auto z32 starter is the same as an na spd? They look pretty similar haven't had a chance to research yet though.

[kouki munster]

I have a auto and a 5 speed vg starter at the shop somewhere, I'll look for them while I'm up there today or tomorrow and see.

[scs13]

You don't wanna sell me the 5spd one do you?

[kouki munster]

I would but its not my starter or I would have already offered, I do have a 5 speed starter that is weak but still turns, I'm not sure if it would have the ump to spin the vh over but if you want it you can have it.

[scs13]

Oh I wasn't sure if it was on a motor of yours or something. Yeah I'll give that one a shot, couldn't hurt. You gonna be down there anytime this week?

[kouki munster]

Just give me a call when you head this way, I only live about 5 min away from the shop.

[gnvarnadore]

anyone going to the Metallica concert tomorrow night???? i won tickets from a local radio station and im stoked about going. also i sold my accord beater a** daily driver today and im using the cash to put some exhaust on the s13. looking into getting the Isis Dual N1 and a test pipe. i hope it will sound good cause i like the looks of it but im most deff going to have to extend the tips and turn them up a bit for the look i really want.

[E7-S14]

I digg that look too greggbut i planned on making it my self.i have a 2.5 in straight pipe on now on my car and the bends are nice and it sits pretty tight up under the car.so ima just modify it when i get the chance

[honeybear]

Are you stalking me? If you are, please don't stop.

Gigady gigady goo

[gnvarnadore]

well i ordered the isis dual n1 but its currently out of stock and enjuku is waiting for the shipment to come in so they can send me one. im going to fit it and see how much pipe im going to have to add to get the look i want. i really wished the circuit sport exhaust wasnt discontinued because thats the exhaust i really wanted and ive seen it on a car and its tips were turned up a little bit, looked really nice. also i dont know anyone else running the Isis dual N1 so i have no idea how it sounds but i hope it dont make my car sound like a freaking honda with a fart can exhaust.

[smurf13]

yo jordan are you still going to use the aero that you had for the fastback?

[scs13]

ill sell it if thats what youre asking haha

[gnvarnadore]

my ISIS Dual N1 exhaust came in today, im getting ready to go to my buddies house and put it on. debating on leaving the silencers on or taking them off, i dont let the idea of bringing to much attention to my car but at the same time i want it to be loud.

[scs13]

no silencers please, get a cherrybomb or something. thats all i had in mine and it sounded great ka and sr.

[kouki munster]

Mufflers are for pussys.

[scs13]

not on a daily lol f*** all that noise, literally

[kouki munster]

Quit complaining, you've heard my car and it is my dd, but I am a little off in the head.

[smurf13]

how much? for the front and rear bumpers? what about those chuki side skirts?
