I would add another chassis to your list of parts.

[twistedsymphony]

holy crap... it looks like your kouki got face ****ed by Paul Bunyan

you'll want a radiator made for the SR20

as for the IC and BOV you didn't have factory equipment before so replacing it with factory equipment would be a downgrade... you'll need to look over the parts and figure out what was on there... either that or just research and go with a new setup.

Seriously though... if your car actually drives straight and looks right after this I'll be shocked.

my car has NO FRAME DAMAGE WHAT SO EVER... i paid a $95 diagnostics fee at Nissan Dealer... car is in EXCELLENT RUN & Drive Condition...

it has a BIGGER turbo on it...

i just want to know if you guys can answer my main question i asked...

what kind of IC BOV and Radiator i need....

knowing that i have a S13 JDM SR20DET Silvia Swap in a S14

do i need to get a S13 SR20 IC BOV and RAD? or can i use S14 SR20 IC BOV and Radiator... on a S13???

You need a S13 SR20 FMIC kit

And a S14 radiator support with a S14 SR radiator.

-Jack

Brand is whatever you choose. Greddy, ARC, HKS

[JeremyR]

you need a new front end as well. fyi.

THANK YOU JACK, this is what i was waiting for...

and yes i KNOW i need new front end but i didnt list that because i dont need a front end to drive the car... im only going to need the 3 things i asked for to make the car runs good, then worry about other things...

also Jack, you said wat ever brand i want...

do you recommend a certain brand??

[bejota180sx]

radiator you have a bunch of good priced brands... koyorad, mishimito and isis (a few more...)
intercooler you could buy any intercooler really even ebay front mount kits work decently... i would go with godspeed if you need ebay price.... if not... get some greddy front mount...
BOV... get anyone you like!!! hotpipes mostly include greddy flange and hks flange but you could just get any flange and weld it on your pipe to fit any bov you like...

there, some brands for you to check...

Hi its Jack again.

Under my own sn.

Personally I don't like Koyo.

I really think their not that great of a radiator. Does it do the job. Yes, but not well at times that I've seen.

Personally I run a Greddy V spec FMIC. I like it. I don't run a large turbo, just a S15 turbo. There's different models in the Greddy lineup.

If money is no object then I would suggest ARC, but then again your just paying for a name but that shit is done to a perfection.

But Greddy, HKS, Blitz, and ARC are all fine. Just try to find the best deal possible.

Hit me up if you want to and I'll get some prices for you.

For the radiator I use Griffin which is the shit. Beats the fuck out of a Koyo as shown in a test done by FD drivers from Drift Association.

Seriously Griffin, awesome quality and worksmanship.

Or you could run Yashio or Greddy radiators. Both awesome, just money.

Or just get a stock S14 radiator.

while your at it you might as well get some new radiator hoses upper and lower. Like the blitz one that has a hole on the uppoer radiator that you can insert a water temp gauge sensor in or just plug it up with their bolt until you feel like doing so.

Ummmm yeah I think that's about it.

[iMxOmar]

thanks again....

it would be greatly appreciated if you have time link me to the sites.. its hard for me to find Nissan parts for some reason...

its my first Nissan

im more of a Acura/Honda guy just wanted to change things up...

in my mind i was thinkn of getting

HKS SSQV BOV, i dont know if thats good but thats a name people keep mentioning to me... found it for $155.00 plus $30 shipping on ebay

Intercooler i dont where to get .... and what kind

Radiator i could get oem but... i want it to look fancy

Do not waste your money on parts you are not going to be able to truly appreciate. I.E. arc, hks, yashio, greddy, ect... at least not for a radiator or intercooler. Go to the link at the top of the page. PBM are great guys, and their stuff is priced right for people who want a good product for a good price.

I have dealt with them and used their stuff before. I can not say anything bad about them at all. Very fast shipping and friendly people.

Phone-858-566-6969

As far as a bov, hks is good stuff. Shop around a bit and use the links on the homepage of zilvia. You can find anything you need.

Do not waste your money on stuff you do not need, be smart and take some advice. You do not need to have the most exclusive parts out there to enjoy your car.

[azndoc]

He said money is not an issue.

I don't have any beef with PBM, their products are cool.

But if money ain't a issue why bother?

Seriously.

Next thing you know you going to tell him to go buy MR gauges?

[theslows13]

you have an SR20DE+T btw, that distributor is only on N/A models...

stick with decent brands and youll get decent product. go with shitty brands... you do the math


mishimoto rads work great and are cheap.

parts shop max products are the shit. i have a load of their stuff and am ordering more shortly. highly recommended

i forgot about PBM radiator and intercooler

but like jack said... griffin has really good reviews... if price isn't anything you should check them out...
forget about the brands i said cause i just said them in case price WAS a issue for you like most people here... but yeah koyo,isis, pbm, mishimoto are cheap compared to others they do they're job but if u can spend a bit more on something that will perform better do it...


second of all i just looked at your hood closely... that thing looks a lot like that kouki s14 that has pictures with a girl and one of them doing a burnout... i think it had some VSXX or close wheels can't really remember...

Thats not true, my first sr was a red top that jim wolf set up. I had a distributor on mine and it was not an na motor from the factory. I do not remember the reason why it was set up that way. It was quite some time ago and i was new to the whole sceen.

[Pblesh85]

Seriously.

Next thing you know you going to tell him to go buy MR gauges?



And I do not support buying e-gay parts, autometer, mr stuff, ect...

I just do not think it is smart for an 18 year old kid who is brand new to the nissan world, and from the looks of it is discovering drifting, or is not a pro driver, to go out and buy a $1500 radiator from arc. I would love to have their stuff on my car, but I love drifting and if I wreck with some PBM parts im not going to be nearly as mad as I would with an tomei genisis set up up and arc's whole catalog under my hood.

You do not need to be cheap to have good parts. Just spend your money wise. PBM's pro series radiator is not cheap by any means. They are just not as established as hks, arc, ect...

If he wants to drop $2500 on a radiator, intercooler, & bov more power to him. Its just not the route I would go. Especially if I were 18 or into drifing. But its his money, let him spend it the way he see's fit. But then again he is asking for "our" advice, or isnt he ?
