RB20DET S13 Coupe Check it out let me know what u think

[placham]

Luck you, that explains why your engine bay is/will be super clean.

[USMCgetsome]

what did you do with those rezax wheels?

[yotik]

hey placham, what holset are you gonna run? what specs are you goin with? im still doing my install. im debating what turbo would best fit 275-300hp dd.

ps: ur coupe is a lot cleaner than my fastback even with the dirt

[placham]

KUILLIN_DRIFTER 2 different coups here (happens to be 2 black S13 coups with RB )

Second coupe without wing belongs to Mistaken, I got the one with wing and Rezax are still on.

yotik- Holset HE351CW I will select the best center section from 2 and see if I should run external WG or internal, but I would like to keep the stock ex-manifold, otherwise inter WG will have to be welded shut.

[Mistaken]

Yah my bad for putting my car in the thread also lol

[splitime]

I'm trying to sell a turbo atm... but seriously... if/when it sells... sell me the other he351cw...

Support local rb20 power!

[lilpiton]

okay so since the winter is almost coming to an end and im meeting some kool ppl here and some of them are from CHI city lol it time to get this thread back alive lol.Looks GOOD man! i like the fact that atleast we got one guy almost from chi that had some balls and went with an RD hehe...So i see that you got the Q45 vlsd. Who installed it for you? I got the S15 vlsd chilling next to my bed for a pretty decent amount of time now and i really would like to get in into my pumpkin. Im broke for now since im jobless for quite a while now and dont have the money to get it installed. This guy told me its doable by myself but there is something that can go wrong so im not trying to risk it.But nice car. I hope that atleast can get is a ride in it lol

[splitime]

Don't need to try and convince you to sell one of the Holsets anymore

Hx35w in hand for when I get around to my build. Weee....

Maybe I'll get far enough done that the car might see the light of day before summers end...

[Mistaken]

I decided to hold off on my custom plenum setup for right now since the engineer company i work for is in the process of moving, so i caved in and bought a greddy for right now. The car is a q45 TB and a downpipe away from running. I'm away at school for another 3 weeks still, but should be running shortly after I get home.

I need some different seats for my car before I get it on the road, the fake nismo's i picked up at the time to replace my moldy stock ones sit way to high up.

O and btw my car is going to be triple projectors with the silvia grill for right now.

Can you post better pictures of your exhaust?

[Nissan2367]

Alot of nice name brand stuff! All i see is you could use some wide fenders on the front to make those wheels fit better!What offset are those things?

[placham]

Holly $hit where did I get so many post from.

Start from bottom, guess wider fenders would help, think this is because I have S14 FLCA's and spindles.

Rezax I 17"Front 17x8 offset+5Rear 17x9 offset+10

I'll try take some new pics today, if it wont be too cold like it usually is. Any specific you want, just exhaust? Guess new pics are in order.

Wiring inside engine bay has been clean up and Optima red top is installed now. S14 VSS is installed now, helped to correct speed on the 180sx kouki cluster(now it reads like it supposed to)

Next is the inside, got to clean up wiring and put the plastic covers back on.

Last will be back brakes and brake master cylinder.

[BMAR240SX]

Sweet, thanks for looking out man

Good progress also

[placham]

Okay took some pics today. I'll past couple cause I took I think like 20 or 30.I dont have a fancy camera and I'm not pro at taking pics, so dont bust my ballz for it, I did the best I could.Dirty->S13 with S14 , too bad its f-ed-up already. ;-(Started to gather parts for S14 to repairBadges for S14( I bought the chrome trunk emblem, and black hood emblem, rest came with the headlights from Japan.)S14 Zenki grill, definitely will need it to complete the tight JDM look

All clean ;-)

Rest of pics*****Edit deleted double posted pic********************

And engine pics( so you can compare before and after)

That's it, if some pics suck and need to be removed or there is too many pics let me know I'll delete some. I dont really know how to resize pics to post on page.

If you are using Windows. Google "windows power toys" and goto the microsoft page and download/install the Image resizer. Quick easy resizing as simple as right clicking the image file.

[placham]

Thanks, I'll look into it.

[yotik]

nice pics. what kind of down pipe/exhaust did you run?

[placham]

HCR32 x-member and stock mount from RB

Syko turbo elbow 3"Some cheap ebay SR20DET 3" down pipe and test pipeBlitz Nur Spec R (cat back)

Exhaust is full 3" turbo back.

[yotik]

wow i thought you had to reclock/weld the sr20 downpipes.

[placham]

wow i thought you had to reclock/weld the sr20 downpipes.

Yes with RB turbo elbow, and no with Syko elbow it allowes you to run full3" and SR20 downpipe which are dime a dozen.

[nismo240sx_gt]

hell its cleaner in these pics then it was last time i seen it. such a beautiful machine

[placham]

That's because it wasnt washed
