FS: LSX s13 coupe

[s13tmont]

Well I believe I've decided to sell this to move on to some other toys.

Pretty much I picked up the shell and built it from the ground up, so I can answer practically anything about it, so on to the car.

It's a 92 240sx s13 coupe, mileage on the shell isn't exactly known but it's obviously up there. It has a 02 Silverado 5.3 LM7 w/ ~60k miles on the motor with an 01 Camaro T56 6 speed behind it.

12/9/11 EDIT: 02 zo6 cam, springs and pushrods were installed as well as a SLP 25% underdrive pulley. New coolant and oil as well as AMSOIL ATF fluid in the trans. New FLCA's with balljoints and bushing were installed and Energy suspension Tension Rod bushings. New glass was put in so the tint is not pealing and the driver door was realigned so that it shuts now. I just purchased a Dakota Digital so that the speedo will work and will be wiring that in this week! New Federal 595's 235/40/18 were put on the fronts. The exhaust setup was changed from the old sagging HKS hi-power to a 3" inline dynomax muffler.

-RPM, Gas & temp gauge work. Speedo will work when you wire in a Digital Dakota Box
-Power windows
-Heat works, A/c could work if you want to get LS to 240sx lines made for it and do the wiring



Honestly, there is probably a ton of little things that i've forgot to mention through out all the stuff that I have mentioned so far. Anything you want to know about the car I will tell you, i'm not trying to hide anything about any of it so I will go ahead and list the cons...

-No a/c
-CEL stays on due to the long tube headers and placement of the o2 sensors. It's just an o2 slow response code.
-Gas door isn't 100% flush
-No front speakers, rear's only
-Gutted Trunk (If that even matters to you)
-The LS PCM lays in the floor board of the passenger side, if you can find a place to stick it out of sight... more power to you.
-Paint job is by no means superior, but it is all one color, definitely could use a new paint job.
-Carbon fiber hood is flimsy, could use hood pins to fix this.
-Small popping in front left suspension when turning right occasionally.

That's really the only things that come to mind when I think of negatives of this car but feel free to point out anything else you disagree with.

Now on to the pictures.....

[s13tmont]

Bump #1, due to adding a few videos of this thing just to give you a better look at it!

[YyungDdragon]

[Eyegazm]

[s13tmont]

Nope, the car is still up for sale!

[Krazykouki]

How do you get LSX from an LM7? free bump none the less.

[s13tmont]

Because the LM7 shares the same design of the LSX, minus the fact that it's iron. The physical dimensions, bolt holes, ect.. it's an all interchangeable design all based from the LSX setup. Thanks for the question though.

[d-man478]

damn. sucks to see your getting rid of it. :(

bump for you!

[boostergod]

Yo im really interested in it man...... is it still up for grabs?

[grimm199]

Wanting to know, How easily does this thing break loose? Like if you are full throttle accelerating, what's the highest speed it has broken loose on you? Wanting to know because i may do a swap like this.

[jesse_s13]

Yes the car is still up for grabs.

Well it has more torque in the lower rpm's and produces the torque quicker, therefore it will spin if you really want it to.

Its a v8 son


glws really clean car man

Thanks a lot!

you need to lower this shit like 3 inches

Maybe another 3/4" in the front and another 1" in the back... but I still haven't rolled or pulled my fenders and I wouldn't say that I'm rushing to get to it. Maybe one day.



Also, I'm installing and 02 zo6 cam, ls6 yellow springs and ls6 pushrods, as well as a SLP 25% underdrive pulley, then will be getting retuned and maybe even dyno tuned. I will update this with further information when it happens.

[95RB]

nice...very nice i think i just cam lol

[ST(I)mpreza]

I sure do like this car, wish I had 10.5... free BUMP just the same!

[zz_kouki_zz]

Nice Silvette! Bump to a fellow Floridian :)

No one still has the yellow "Made in Germany" springs anymore. They only have the blue "Made in Mexico" springs. These are still good, and come stock on the LS3 C6 and Camaro. I have them in my C5, rev to 7k, and have no problems.

BTW, when you do this job, make sure to get the Proform LS Valve spring compressor. It makes the job very easy, you can do two springs at once. It costs about $70, and is well worth it. Also, don't use an air holder. Just take 1/4" nylon rope. Put it in the cylinder through the spark plug hole, and turn the engine until it stops. It holds the valves perfectly, and takes way less time than that stupid air holder. Not to mention, I could never get the air holder to actually get a good seal and hold the valve.

[boostergod]

Well im up in nj but ima be down there over the winter and if its still avaible then Ill check it out and make u a offer

I'm not sure what you mean by the yellow "Made in Germany" springs, but they are the ls6 springs that have the yellow marking. With them shimmed, they are capable of about a .560 lift whereas the ls6 zo6 cam is right around .551, so these are plenty capable of what I'm going for. Thanks for the heads up on the install though, I'm going to look into both of the things that you posted.

Well when you come down, don't be afraid to come take a look. I'm in no rush to sell this thing.

[mx597turbo]

I mean that there are no more yellow springs. The springs are blue now. The specs are exactly the same as the yellow ones, I ordered the yellow springs when I changed mine, but I got blue ones. I called and was told GM doesn't make the yellow ones anymore. They used to be made in Germany, now they're made in Mexico.

Also, make sure you have a few extra of the valve locks (the half-circle things that hold the valve in the retainer). Buy them when you get the springs, or you will be heading to the GM dealer to buy some when you do the job. Ask me how I know :)

You can still get new yellow springs from GM. All you need is the original part number (aka pn. for yellow springs. not the updated pn. for "updated pn. 99665544 blue springs") and the dealer can track down who already has the springs in stock. Basically you are finding a dealer somewhere who has them on the shelf and never sold them instead of your dealer ordering from one of the wearhouses. - I'm a GM tech. we deal with these "updated" part numbers all the time on all sorts of parts
-Now you would only need to do this if you did not trust the new made in mexico blue springs.


also, a magnet helps on the spring retainer locks.


And for the love of all that is LS just take the heads off to do the job, clean them and have the valve guides and seats checked and then do the springs/seals. then you'll have a nice fresh top end with new gaskets, head bolts, clean the valley cover, etc.. (just dont shove some string in your engine) :barf:

Compressed air works as well to keep the valves closed...

any videos of it pulling?

[MasonBarnard]

im guessing its sold

[s13tmont]

Nope, car is still for sale. Although, I'm not really pushing to hard to sell just because I've been still adding things to the car.

Energy Master bushing set is in the works, New LCA's and balljoints, new tie rod ends...

02 zo6 cam, springs and pushrods as well as a SLP underdrive pulley is going on this weekend with a new tune. At this point, I'd have to get very close to my asking price.

[lex_s13]

[dr. picklez]

im down in SFL and I might be able to pick this up if someone buys my F250 this week

[s13tmont]

Lex, I'm available whenever to show it! Since Pcola is close to PCB, I'd be willing to meet yo in Destin if that's cool, contact me through email or PM's to set this up!


Dr. Picklez, where in SFL are you located? If your F250 does sell, contact me and I'd be willing to work out a hell of deal on this!

I found the next car I want so anyone with some cash could obviously persuade me into getting rid of it for the right price! Let me know!
