Unique mods thread

[usdm180sx]

I don't know how long this is going to last since these cars have been around forever but post up what you have! It could be anything from cool headlight setups to back yard mods so post them up!

Here's mine:

I took off the chrome backing from my 180sx glass and replaced it with jdm rainbow sticker backing. Looks cool!

Nice! where did you find the rainbow sticker?

[usdm180sx]

Island Motorsports in Santa Fe Springs has the material

I've thought about making this thread, glad you did it. I'll have some stuff for in here when I'm on a computer and not my phone.

[Pink Slut]

ha! i have the 200sx on my rear windows in the (old) color of my car

[Dunkz]

Got a few of these from over the years.

Most recently my new dash setup for ease of connecting the laptop for mapping.

I hope to see some cool ideas get posted in this thread. Sorry I don't have any to share myself.

[ki_JDM_ds]

I did this a few years ago. I didn't like where people put there aftermarket alarm LED warning lights and wanted to come up with my own solution. It was inspired by OEM alarm LED placement.

I used my HUD gauge cluster but it should work the same on an analog one.

First pick a spot. Preferably an unused warning light spot. Trim a hole big enough for the wiring to fit through.

http://i33.photobucket.com/albums/d78/ki_JDM_ds/8f5d0f6e.jpg

Next trim the clear "domes" to make the LED fit flush.

http://i33.photobucket.com/albums/d78/ki_JDM_ds/56e9add0.jpg

http://i33.photobucket.com/albums/d78/ki_JDM_ds/d4da5f84.jpg

There is no cutting required after this. The warning light panel fits just like it should.

http://i33.photobucket.com/albums/d78/ki_JDM_ds/b07209ae.jpg

I then pulled the wires through the empty bulb hole and ran them behind my dash.

http://i33.photobucket.com/albums/d78/ki_JDM_ds/33d08f7a.jpg

Here is the finished product.

http://i33.photobucket.com/albums/d78/ki_JDM_ds/b04ce99b.jpg

When activated the light will illuminate the entire cabin at night and it looks factory.

[Mishkin_707]

I have no pics, but I wired in some crown Vic/town car horns in placement of my stock horns, no one takes the OEM horns seriously cause it sounds like a clown car, but now when I honk at people they move, now people look around when I honk because they don't expect a loud manly horn coming from my S13.....lol

http://tehl33tsite.com/240sxdd/black240/interior/IMAG0193.jpg

In order for the driver to have the ability to roll down the passenger window within arms reach, I installed a factory OEM power folding mirror switch that controls it instead.

http://tehl33tsite.com/240sxdd/black240/interior/IMAG0194.jpg

I'm planning on doing this to my two-tone as well.

Why you ask? Because the way I look at it, it is one less thing to break. As long as I have a working left arm, I will continue to roll down my own window. Rolling down the manual passenger window while driving has been proven dangerous. :)

Ive got greddy 60mm boost,temp,oil pres, something else... cant remember atm

water/oil temp:
I bought an extra temp sensor from greddy and a pressure sensor. Since the gauge for temp only says temp and does not specify oil or water... I have one temp sensor for water and one for oil.

oil pressure
I also bought an extra oil pressure sensor. I have one before my filter/cooler and one on the turbo side. This way I can see if my filter is flowing how it should and one to see if my turbo is crapping out.

The coin holder in the center console(s14) holds two toggle switches. One in each holder. Flip one switch and you have oil temp one way, flip it the other way and you have water temp...(pwr fc reads both as well) The other switch, oil pressure before the oil cooler/filter and flip it you have the turbo side...


Also, anyone ever put a bov here ???

Guys, there is a rare parts thread already. You need to go post there. This is for unique mods. As in something custom you did, not something you bought.

[a fuzzychnchila]

Mounted a cup holder in the center console cover and relocated the 12v charger/cig ligher. Did both so they wouldn't get in the way of shifting gears -__-

I put a Frontier cup holder insert in my S14 for a cup holder. Not hard to do, but functional.

[landins13]

I retrofitted my innovate wideband into the clock in my cluster using the clock adjustment knob as the calibration switch and one of the empty warning lights as my led status indicator.

02 sensor is bad and im waiting on a new one so I can re-calibrate it but everything functions properly. I also am running a fully functioning/accurate hud cluster with my vvti 1jz. I did a write up on that on here a while ago.

I wouldn't run it like that. For the past 2 years I had mine off that pipe, but a shorter distance away than yours, and my BOV would only full open if I was in it to win it. Since welding on a flange it is responding perfectly and I'm only get a little bit of surge when I'm only building a lb. or so of boost.

G20 Throttle body bolts right on and give the extra pulley for cruise control. It's super easy to set up, I'm surprised more people don't run it. When I did mine I found that it was actually easier to hook up than A/C.

Cruise control is a nice touch. Does it work? What pulleys did u use? Oops nvm thanks for the info =) I wanna try this with an n15 throttle body. I've seen jem fogs with a fmic before too that's also a nice touch. The hks s14 bov kit runs the bov in a similar way. That's where the stoce bov is located

I used a ka tb with a ca lever and a bit of custom work. It works just fine but the ka tb does not allow for a fast idle like the s14sr does. Its only annoying when my car is cold(264's).

I did not know a g20 tb would work

That makes a lot of sense since a g20 has an sr20de so a sentra se-r or n2000 tb should work too. I hope the pulley is interchangeable with the n15 70mm throttle body which is what I have.

nice, what would you sell them for is the question. and will they go down? your last picture with the vacuum cleaner in the corner lol, is that with all 4 lights one?

I'm thinking $200 or 180 if you supply the headlight buckets...
yes they close just fine ...
as for the last pic it's the center high beams... not all 4

[df3kt760]

I have no pics, but I wired in some crown Vic/town car horns in placement of my stock horns, no one takes the OEM horns seriously cause it sounds like a clown car, but now when I honk at people they move, now people look around when I honk because they don't expect a loud manly horn coming from my S13.....lol

I swapped horns too, and I'm glad i did. I used GM horns out of an 80s full size car.
Edit: I'm quite interested in that J30 headlight conversion now too!

i retro(ghetto)fitted s14 se foglights in the vents of my chuki, i had to strip the foglight down to the bare housing to make them fit and then made brackets to bolt down to the vent, the picture doesnt do justice, took it ten min ago at night they look nice

thank you. Like this ALOT! My oems had me hating night driving. Was seeking doing a different take on the s13 silvia face til this considering my tube front was built around pop ups.

Soda can dust cover is pretty trick. Not what i'd call baller but in a pinch, i'd do it just to keep crap out of my wheel bearings if i lost a dust cover and had no centers. =D

[iBlaze240]

Im working on something right now but will post up when finished.

[s13killa]

I did this a few years ago. I didn't like where people put there aftermarket alarm LED warning lights and wanted to come up with my own solution. It was inspired by OEM alarm LED placement.

I used my HUD gauge cluster but it should work the same on an analog one.

First pick a spot. Preferably an unused warning light spot. Trim a hole big enough for the wiring to fit through.

http://i33.photobucket.com/albums/d78/ki_JDM_ds/8f5d0f6e.jpg

Next trim the clear "domes" to make the LED fit flush.

http://i33.photobucket.com/albums/d78/ki_JDM_ds/d4da5f84.jpg

There is no cutting required after this. The warning light panel fits just like it should.

http://i33.photobucket.com/albums/d78/ki_JDM_ds/b07209ae.jpg

I then pulled the wires through the empty bulb hole and ran them behind my dash.

http://i33.photobucket.com/albums/d78/ki_JDM_ds/33d08f7a.jpg

Here is the finished product.

When activated the light will illuminate the entire cabin at night and it looks factory.

i like this idea
