New Products for S Chassis

[bardabe]

Being that there will never be enough parts for the Nissan S chassis, what kind of performance upgrades are you guys looking for that aren't currently available for the 240sx? We are looking to make new performance parts to make things easier for the DIY guys, we would like your input on things you need.

we are currently in the middle of revising the subframe braces, and making our own version of them something stronger and catchier than the "flat bar" that was available for a short time, but we need more idea on other things the consumers need now!

Step 1 is dont be a douchebag theif like john griff @ rpsport. that bastard stole $200 of mine! If you have enough interest you could make a shim height tool.

Stupid idea: Pre-made tubs.

Was thinking about this last night, someone should sell a kit consisting of left and right front tubs and a template showing the end user where to cut. At that point, they'd just weld 'em in.

Not sure what the market's like for this, I'd imagine there are more people out there like me who have limited fab capability at the same location as their car, but can find someone to weld the tubs in...

[homeslicej2]

How about a custom radiator and condensor combo that tucks under the core support (like the Chase Bays one) but also allows for IC piping to pass around the rad for short piping, better transient response all while still retaining factory function of the pop up headlights for S13? I know it'd be expensive, but just an idea.

OEM SPEC CA18DET PARTS!!!!! Someone please make them so I can be comfortable keeping this little beast in my car.

[bardabe]

We Don't have access to silicone forming equipment, or Body Parts,

Sunroof Delete panel would be something we could make because it would be made out of Aluminum / Sheet metal. keep em coming guys!

This! I have an aftermarket sunroof and I don't feel like paying for an OEM roofskin from Nissan and the labor to remove and reinstall the windshields.

+1 for this idea. I would totally buy a set.

[g00se]

delrin bushings, skid plate,

[lewisfk]

+1 for the TUB IDEA! IF you guys are good at wiring, im intrested in a chassis harness!

Lights, blinkers, full pump, dual fan setup, heater, and thats it! The basics to get people to the track, and keep the price under 600 bucks! Maybe im dreaming!

[beto300zx]

+1 on the sunroof delete for s13!

Like this (purple things)

Spherical sway bar endlinks for the front would be nice too....

[az_240]

Camber plates that adjust caster as well.... at a reasonable price.

[novocaine]

i also like the tub idea... also i was checking out my battery tray area and its in real bad shape. after i pull up all the corrosion and rust from that area im afraid there will be nothing left other than the window washer rez bottle. are there pre-fabbed battery tray 'pans' ready for weld? if so ill buy one asap

[s13 loverr]

sunroof delete, manual windows, v-mount setup, full car skid plate, oil filter relocation setup, big rear view mirror that doesn't shake/move? Any of these would be awesome! Especially the sunroof delete as they are only available through one company right now for lots of $$$$ as they only come in carbon fiber.

[shalezzz]

battery trays would be awesome and not hard to make. Also what would be cool but prob not practical. Would be a kit that allows people to chop the frame rails down and have a weld in replacement that doesn't hang low and isn't crusty

[Eraism]

S14 Miracle X-Bar styled brace?

This would be marvelous.

[shalezzz]

Also door bars/half cage for people who daily thier car and don't wanna smoke their head on a cage

[Exas Spec D]

VH45DE long tube headers.

[bentmode360]

Flat exhausts pipes! For the low crowd

How about the S13 SR IACV block-off plate?
I know I could make one myself, but I would like it to look nicer. :)

[bardabe]

DoLuck center brace Just made it to the drawing board, we will only produce major interest parts,

sun roof deletes I can make but they will have to be Rivet on. how do you guys feel about riviting on an Aluminum plate to the roof of your car?

[future]

Do you guys have a shop? I want a PBM style oval exhuast. But would need to be custom cause i have a ls1

[Edwin562]

Someone needs to compete with sonic motor's with bucket seats on a budget... hipsters will love this...

If making the DoLuck rear cross bar definitely make those bracket/stabilizer things I posted. DoLuck made them but they are extremely hard to find and actually make a huge difference with the bar... the seat feels nice and solid. Without them the trans tunnel is still able to flex and the bar is just not as noticeable.

Don't know of anyone making these anymore. I know the stock piece is flimsy and gets twisted. Seems like it would be a really easy part to make money off of.

[bardabe]

^^^ I'm currently re designing those pieces, the ones John made are good, but i can't just knock off someone else's product. i have to make it better and that is exactly what I am doing.

Why not make it to match the Kognition where it's glue on? Did mine with 3M widshield adhesive.

Frame Rails | Boundary Engineering (http://boundaryengineering.com/drupal/node/23)

frame rail braces like this. Common for miatas and very effective for them. Big added bonus is they slide easily over speed bumps and you can jack the car up from any point on the frame rail without crushing it. Simple bent sheet metal

You should just knock it off I know myself and a bunch of other people who paid for them got beat for their money. And I would definitely buy the frame rail brace, they make similar ones for miatas.

[BOROSUN]

how about these? my D-brace is always out of shape when i remove & install my tanabe sway bar.

[IROYLE1]

drilled slotted 4 lug z32 rotors so i can keep my shitty wheels and get good brakes.
Some kind of pop up headlight mod, Custom lamps, some kind of front lip, diffuser, canards, air ducts for cooling things, (brakes, coolers, ect.)

[bardabe]

So there are alot of good ideas floating around this thread, trying to guage interest on specific items to move them up into the manufacturing stage. If someone wouldn't mind making a list of the desired parts, and fill out names of the members willing to buy that particular part we can definitly start getting some of these pieces out to you.

This Format works just fine for Guaging Interest:

Part: Ex., Premade Tubs.
Members: 1.
2.
Thanks for all the info guys keep the ideas rolling.

[maxtrbo93]

Premade tubs... Please.

[VR-Precision]

for us to do the pre-made tubs we would need a group buy and deposits let's get a list of people that are ready or would be ready to buy in the next 30 days to put deposits down and I can talk to my sheet metal machine shop about a long term production.
