I plan to pull my sohc this weekend and was wondering, am I going to be able remove all of the bolts by hand? (like driveshaft to transmission, engine to header, engine to transmission)

[OutToWinPAHC]

You can get to all the bolts you need to get to.

[jlmphoto]

If my car is staying NA is it okay to do the emissions removal? I have to do a head gasket so I'll be deep into it anyway. Thanks in advance.

[OutToWinPAHC]

In florida.. yea you can do whatever you want down there.

I guess I meant from the stand point of most all people I have read do it when they turbo a car. I just wanted to make sure NA did okay without it too.

[OutToWinPAHC]

Yeah, we have some write ups on it on 240sxtech.com too. Check that and "The Ultimate sticky"

[jlmphoto]

Hey thanks man. I read through them already and I'll tackle that job when we replace the head gasket. Thanks Again.

[slikklogic]

what clutches are interchangable on a ka24De? ive seen people talking about rb25 and sr clutchs on it. and compition came out with some 350z converstion flywheel

[OutToWinPAHC]

White bunny clutch... Z32 and D21 (i think) flywheel, RB25 clutch swap (not sure what flywheel). Just try searching those, I dont know of many more.

[slikklogic]

hm i see its cheaper but im not seeing a lightweight fly for the d21 or a hp capacity for them

[speedeast]

Search for a flywheel by engine code instead of make and model, you'll find a lot more.

[Ni$$@n240]

Where are the Factory Service Manuals?

Assuming you're searching for 240sx.

[slikklogic]

[Ni$$@n240]

Yes I am. Much appreciated.

and NOT these
http://www.maxituning.es/files/latribu_ ... 00SX_0.jpg

Can someone tell me the order of value for these? and what the names are? Thanks!

[OutToWinPAHC]

Ugh... the one link is FR who sells them, the price is on the page. 399.95 for OEM JDM
Vertex $690.00
last I think are the same as 2

[SOUNDWAVE333]

Which one?
You see how the first one is just like blocks? Well the second two have projectors, but they are placed differently. I prefer the middle ones where the projector is centered.

So what is the middle one? Japanese? Usdm? And how much for a set of them, nothing special just stock

[troskinatior]

Hey guys, im having problems starting my car in the mornings because its so cold. Ive tryed looking it up but all I got was people saying its the battery but my engine cranks the same in the cold. To get it started i have to spray tons of starter fluid in the intake and it idles fine but then if I hit the gas it starts to choke and it doesnt want to rev till it gets to operating temp. And ideas?

[OutToWinPAHC]

CEL present?, check codes if so

Check plug gap and timing, adjust TPS, clean IAC and TB. Look over injector O-Rings, see if you can swap MAF's

[troskinatior]

Ok ill start tomorrow, and also if im driving then I go into neutral my rpms lower to about 1500 and stay there for 2 seconds the drop again to idle. It isnt that big of a problem Im just curious

[PapaSmurf2k3]

2 seconds seems a bit on the long side, but a slight blip in the throttle before settling down to idle is normal.

[mikes13jonz]

Hey guys on the rear side markers on the s13, i tryed changing the bulbs but didnt know how to go about replacing the old bulb out. i tryed and it flet like i was about to break it off, but i didnt want that to happen. so i was woundering if it was a twist off or pry off?

[PapaSmurf2k3]

Uhhh... not sure off the top of my head, if you post a pic I should be able to tell you. My guess is pry off, or maybe like, a push and 1/4 turn type deal.

[mikes13jonz]
