I! have the cleanest engine bay! You should see it, I chromed the engine bay, and chromes most of the metal parts in my engine bay. Every time I open my hood, I have to play the HALLELUJAH! theme... That's how clean and shiney my engine bay is.

this is my jobby, try to keep it clean so it doesn't catch on fire and I end up like newman on seinfeld when the postal truck caught on fire. my spray paint job earned me 15hp by releasing backpressure on the conuder valve.

Very nice and clean engines people. BTW: what do you guys use to clean them up?

Post by **sidewards** » Sat Dec 10, 2005 11:34 am

I use the cheapest autzone degreaser, I've heard simple green will stain alum. so stay away from that. windex for most of the painted stuff that has dirt and not grease. use a very light coat of armor all to shine up all of the plastic. The main thing is to touch it up everyweek and replace any leaky seals.

Post by **slpr240** » Thu Dec 22, 2005 5:16 am

Post by **emperor_lunchbox** » Mon Dec 26, 2005 4:23 pm

same here. I think I came accross a pic of it one time, but I dont remember.This is prolly the best exterior example of an S13 that is not owned by a shop or something like that.

stock at its finest: I have never touched the bay since I bought it, its too clean do do so. Maybe i will paint the valve cover white

Nice, but seems like a little too much work.

Ssssweet engine bay. help a brother out how did u get it so fresh and so clean.

Post by **Chezedik** » Mon Jan 02, 2006 5:00 pm

who's? Nismo? Nelson? Me, oh wait, I made no post.

Post by **deviousKA** » Mon Jan 02, 2006 6:07 pm

nelson8708, what type of front clip is your friend planning to use? Fiberglass or steel? I am looking for a couple racing fiberglass front clips myself.

That car looks neat.

From fresh & clean, to wild & nasty (and dirty)

itbs ehh? Have you dynoed with them before and after?

Post by **deviousKA** » Mon Jan 02, 2006 7:28 pm

dynos are scarce in my area, to the point that I am building my own. Been working on it for several months.

Closest chassis dyno is 250 miles, not going to drive this car that far. I would trailer it, but havent had another reason to make a trip.

So nope I dont have dyno before and after.

Post by **Chezedik** » Mon Jan 02, 2006 7:36 pm

Devious, I am sure it is a long shot, but we have one at the university, and I have access. But this is in Butt **** KS.

Post by **deviousKA** » Mon Jan 02, 2006 9:34 pm

Yep, the local universities diesel tech department has a chassis dyno, they wont let me on it.

But, I am making myself a very nice inertia roller chassis rack with detachable current brake for load testing, have about 3k into it so far, another 5 to go.

Good Start, I guess ( no I am just f'in with you). If you guys don't know, this is a guy to talk to N/A or not! He has some stuff. But I want to see your bay! I expect an SOHC carb'd or ITBs, but nothing else, except for some decent standalone. Am I right?

Post by **VinceSez** » Wed Jan 04, 2006 6:42 pm

Here's my blingin` engine bay I was talking about guys! Isn't it beautiful and clean?

Post by **Chezedik** » Wed Jan 04, 2006 7:25 pm

Not bad vince, I will need to take a pic of mine, so that I can blow you all away.

Post by **Touchdown038** » Wed Jan 04, 2006 8:03 pm

Is that U of I by any chance? Maybe I can pull some strings (I know lots of Mech.E's) and let you on there.

Where'd you get the ITB setup?

Post by **VinceSez** » Wed Jan 04, 2006 8:04 pm

thx.. if i could get the hallelujah theme to go along with my picture, it would go together nicely!

Post by **eddiec** » Thu Jan 05, 2006 2:05 am

stock bays always look so cluttered.

i'm hoping to get rid of some of the junk below over the year to come.
