S13-2JZ Build

[mott6904]

lower the bike strap the front forks and then it will leave alot harder without the front coming up on you.

Holy god what do you do for a living?!? Your profile says you're 19 and you have 20K+ to spend on a 240 (silvia) and enough to buy an r1 too? Jesus, where's all this $$$ coming from? You're a lucky dude.

[NICONick]

Just sat here and read this entire thread. I cant wait to see the finished product! What'd you pay for those wheels? I love'em, and I need wheels badly to compliment my new stance. Keep the updates comin!

[silvia_ks_69]

hey guys updates are flyin around lol. i got some stuff done altho not as much as like obviously ( i want the car done now!!!!:@@)))) bought a shop press to put in the ichiba five lug.... got it all assembled and ready to go... no god damn jack wtmf?!?!?!? put the front brakes on forgot to get the second a/n fitting SOB!! already sick of it.... seriously made more trips to the shop than i have in the last cpl months. anyways got the tires and wheels mounted and got the front all done up and since i couldnt press the kit i started making the IC piping. enjoy.

ps. paid 2600 for the wheels but they go for 3100 or more in that size and offset.

sexy new throttle body. HUGE!!!



WIDE STANCE!!











damnit if i could only weld!!! [IMG][/IMG]

[silvia_ks_69]

well im actually 18. the money hmmm...im not a drug dealer if thats wut ur thinkin lol i just work hard thats all. ive had the car since i was 15, and the R1 well that was kinda just a quick buy cuz i was pissed off that i couldnt finish my silvia. but ya i have spent pretty much 20K on mods and wut not altho in the end i hope this thing turn out to be a monster

[oO RAIDER Oo]

i might not even use the tech 2 mounts, the engine is sitting high right now which sux. it might go down when everything gets in its final place but i dunno. as for the mount combo and **** cant get really anymore/different pictures, if ur thinking of putting a 2j in same ur time and effort and just order the kit.

Cool build!! juz a quikie, was you happy with the tech2 kit in the end, did it sit lower or did u have to modify it? i got a RHD silvia too an am planning this build wen i get bak from AUS. Good luck in NZ an hope the project works out!

[silvia_ks_69]

happy with the kit although if u can fab id say u can make one for cheaper. the problem i found out lies in the oil pan sitting on the sway bar. so either the sway bar needs to be notched or the oil pan needs to modified. cross members, trans mount and drive shaft are all good tho.

What's up Silvia_KS nice build!

BTW this "S13-2JZ sway bar" issue has been covered many times before. If I remember Tech2 sells a spacer that solves this problem. But like you said earilier if you can fab you could probably do it your self.

[silvia_ks_69]

well alright then, now thats wut im talking about! i shall take a look at tech2's page and hunt around here.

ps, if i cant find it u should give me the link

edit. found the post, but the spacer looks like it makes it sit higher? im gunna get a pic and show u wut im dealin with

[silvia_ks_69]

got all the brakes, tie rods, five lug all that jazz on and dropped the car down. suspension needs to be adjusted but it still looks pretty stellar. enjoy

[JRPS13]

nice build this thing has gotta be a monster!!!!what kind of tires you running on this thing to keep it straight!? hha

[silvia_ks_69]

running falken Ziex 912, they actually fit really well and im pretty happy with them. altho i should be running like azenis if i were to want to stay straight or grippy.

[nissan_star]

looks cool man, good job. What do you do, may i ask, for a living?

[silvia_ks_69]

uhh nothing as of yet, i just graduated and now im off to new zealand for awhile. ive been flooring since the summer tho.

[nissan_star]

i was thinking like, international man of mystery, James Bond or something. But flooring is good too.

Are you gonna race it?

[silvia_ks_69]

nope. sorry to dissapoint. we shall c wut the scene is like in in NZ im not sure. id only race if i had sponsors. right now the plan is just a monster street car

[RCA]

KS ever find the answer to that sway bar issue?

[silvia_ks_69]

yeah i did, the sway bar spacers are on order from tech2. the spacer sits on the sway bar and with the weight of the engine it pushes it down so that the oil pan doesnt hit it absolute money. and ya they are 125$ pricey but worth it.

[TekuDrifter18]

this car is gonna be a beast. looks nice keep it coming.

[type-kt]

sexxxy car. looks good.

[NPVR6]

This is going to be one fasst car

[oO RAIDER Oo]

Any updates dude? I check nearly every day! lol

[MastaYu]

coming along very nice

[silvia_ks_69]

srry to dissapoint. im over in NZ now so my *** is broke at the moment until i get a few paychecks under my belt. uhh i bought stainless exhaust piping lol i need to get the exhaust manifold fabbed is wuts really holding **** up. and obviously im in no rush so whenever the guy wants to work on it he does. i told him to make sure he takes pics and **** tho. once the fabbing gets done tho its just put everything back together and then yeah there will be lots of updates and the car will be finished. but i promise the wait will be worth it in the end. thx to those who are staying loyal to the thread. cheerz from downunder

[fabrisuzu]

This is going to be one amazing car! I hope i can see it sometime, but never on the street lol, you'd crush my sr as it is right now.

[prestodevil]

yo, props on da ride yo. Pretty fresh!

[silvia_ks_69]

yeah i think it would be pretty cool to take it through the states just like a cruise or wutever. hit some different tuning shops, let people check it out in person. lol not saying its god or anything.. and then ya prolly end up at tech2 in cali.

[2JZSWAP]
