hey guys, fairly new to the forums, never really posted or got on just due to my style of living. I don't really go on my computer or play video games much, always out doing something else or on my phone. My names Paulo, 23 located out in Las Vegas, NV, and this will be my build thread on my S13 Hatch.

ill be stealing most of my pictures from my facebook and instagram so they won't be of best quality.

It all started with this car when I ended up trading my old lexus for this car after i smashed my oil pan for the 11th or 12th time, this time being only 3 days since i just resealed a new pan on it. After that i was done with the car and wanted it gone. My buddy had messaged me to give him the car for the hatch in his driveway which i haven't even seen or even knew he had. Later that night i drove over, took a look at the car and we ended up trading the next week. I had converted my lexus back to stock and drove the car onto the trailer with no oil or pan and we just swapped cars.

The car was a 1991 Nissan 240SX LE hatchback, LE meaning it had the rear wiper blades, leather seats, etc. The car barely ran so the next day i set off to grab a set of plugs, and adjusted timing and got the car in driving condition.

sat stock for a good while, then ended up spinning a rod bearing one evening sliding it in the rain, the one and only time i have taken it sliding since it was open diff automatic. This left me in a predicament, i didn't need two broken 240's so i had to make a Decision, keep my coupe that i have slowly and only partially serious about working on and toss this chassis or yank the SR22 out of the coupe and swap it into the hatch. I opted to do the extra work and pull the SR22 out of the coupe and swap it into my hatch because i know the hatch is more solid and complete and well better taken care of than the coupe was. The coupe has rotted frame rails, front end damage and etc.

Now the fun began, yanked the SR out of the coupe, and traded it to my buddy for my old Garsons back. I could have easily dropped the motor back into the hatch that same week but i opted not too. Just like my coupe I cleaned out the engine bay and prepped it to get ready for paint.

now the fun begins, throwing the whole car back together with the power plant.
As crazy as it sounds I came up on this SR from a buddy of mine from the east coast. He had a buddy who had ripped this SR out of a car in japan, shipped it to the US, ran it and then sold it to my buddy who then sold it to me out here in Las Vegas. Its an HKS SR22Det Stroker and came with a bunch of goodies. We haven't torn the motor apart because it was never really needed. The motor had no issues and ran amazing for the passed few years. Supposedly built by HKS in japan. Blue printed and balanced etc. I can't say if thats true for a fact but by the way the motor runs and feels i wouldn't doubt it. It was dyno tuned on 100 octane and 21lbs pushing 450 to the wheels. I keep it a a very modest 10 lbs since its my first ever 240. Never drove the coupe. As soon as the paint was dry enough, I got straight down to business and busted out the install on a nice warm saturday morning by myself.

Heres some information on the motor itself
HKS SR22det Stroker kit consisting of crank, sleeves, rods, and pistons
HKS GTRS Turbo
ISIS Manifold, old apexi had cracked and this is what the previous owners replaced it with.
Tomei adjustable cam gears, confirmed this when i had to pop the valve cover off for typical sr20 things (Foreshadowing)

I was able to get the car rolling and driving for a vegas drift event which was a totally bad idea since i rushed the hell out of it and left a lot of things half assed like not even mounting my PBM HMIC other than the two hose couplers. I ended up getting boost leaks that whole evening just driving down the road and running rich as hell.

Ended up trying to slide it and drive it, ended up over boosting it due to a backwards boost controller, and was experiencing lean AFR's and fuel cut issues.

https://scontent.flas1-2.fna.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-9/23905195_10207987683009451_7686208837577482974_n.j pg?oh=b33497ff6b75834dcc7a551e10e7f52d&oe=5B064199

Drifted it one night and then boom. I get a heavy misfire out of cylinder 4.
Did a comp test, 3 cylinders were at 180 the 4th was giving me weird patterns of 0-50psi readings which made no sense. Id crank the motor up with no plug and just watch fuel vapor puff out of the top of the motor so that told me that the bottom end is still compressing yet no compression reading. hmmmmm.

pulled the valve covers off and boom find this.

https://scontent.flas1-2.fna.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-9/23795430_10207987683089453_7804933523563809262_n.j pg?oh=2b30a71b5782ca0ac0bd919d80c172e2&oe=5B49C1B9

Blew out both intake and exhaust rockers in cylinder 4, for those that still don't understand why im getting funky compression readings, you can't get compression when you have no air to even compress.

Also boys and girls don't let your SR's rev passed 8500-9k...... you blow rocker arms. I'm a noob to turbo and sr20's so i had no idea this was even a design flaw.... I changed my driving style real quick after this happened.
Shinyyyy

threw some extra rockers that i had in the garage and she was all good to go again.

since the engine bay and exterior were where i wanted it to be for now i decided to start changing the interior up a bit.

Threw some buckets in to keep me in tight, and my Nardi that i have had laying around for about a year now.

I hated multiple colored things so decided to swap in a stock black top cover. Im not a very flashy kind of person so this made me a lot happier seeing a very stockish looking sr20 in my bay. As far as cooling go's if anyones wondering im running a stock fan clutch with OEM Shroud and GKtech fan. <3

I found out my buddy had a type x kit for sale that hes been storing for a good minute, i wasn't going to go around and piece together a kit, im the kind of person who will pay a bit more for ease and time. I sold my 20" work scwerts off of the daily and cashed him out for his type x kit. It came in silver so i had some work to do.

After the rocker arm issues were fixed i actually sprung a powersteering leak and ended up putting the car up on jackstands. I had already replaced the PS line that was leaking but in that time I decided ill prep the aero, throw on my 5 lug, install all my drop knuckles, and install my front arms as well too.

So Vegas drift was holding a practice event on the 18th of February i believe and I actually tried and got the car off the jack stands and drivable to try and be able to get some seat time since i have left the car on stands since August or September due to me just not wanting to work on it. Well this was taken Friday evening of the 16th of February, i had to max camber since my fenders aren't even rolled. Seeing it on the ground just made me feel good inside that I might actually be able to drive it sometime next week. Well that didn't exactly happen. My buddy hit me up telling me to bring the car by in the morning and we can get the fenders rolled. Mind you I just threw it back on insurance that morning with hopes and dreams that I might actually be able to drive it that weekend.

Saturday morning came and i decided to go get my moving permit just in case i get pulled over. I had also left my license at home that morning but went back because i wasn't going to risk anything...

got popped a block away from my buddies house for exp reg but they let me go since i had all the right paperwork etc.

Thanks for the roll @potatosparkles <3

After we got the car semi aligned and the fenders rolled, I headed to my other buddies shop to help him drop a transmission off..... in Barstow. (I was unaware of the location) We got back to the shop around 10pm.

https://scontent.flas1-2.fna.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-9/27972543_10208488079319046_6824138565426319847_n.j pg?oh=bcb8b0bdf2d51954a1f61cf317a2c740&oe=5B0EEA77

on the way home we ended up picking up some stuff from my house to throw onto the car maybe, one of which being a spare differential that i had received with the car that was supposedly a Tomei LSD. Never care to pop the cover off to check so i wasn't sure.
well i popped the cover off and....

https://scontent.flas1-2.fna.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-9/28058998_10208488079439049_2777216676488403598_n.j pg?oh=68a4d4960ea7c23a44eb290b1bad4e52&oe=5B0CD73E

so that was a nice come up with that.. ended up swapping my 13 diff cover on and re installing into the car. Blake got the car aligned around 4:30 am and i was actually able to drive the car on the street and romp on it without worrying about my arms being all lose and all that. After that it was time to call it an evening. Ended up getting home at 6am and slept in until 11am.

Woke up later that morning, grabbed the tools, cleaned up a tad, and went on to fill the car up with some fresh 100 octane and off we went to Vegasdrift.

I decided to keep it on wet session since this is literally going to be the first time I'm ever drifting it other than that time when i blew my rocker arms while still on open diff. I didn't want to put too much stress on the car incase we forgot to tighten something up but i also wanted to familiarize myself with the new alignment and LSD as well. I have only driven the car a handful of times after the manual swap since it was never registered and it costs a lot to drive a car on 100 octane and a twin disc apexi clutch with a heavy pressure plate. It's my first manual car.

heres a vid of wetsession with me taking it real easy and just letting of throttle everytime i got too high of RPM.

next up is new axles all around, new calipers in the rear end, replace the clutch slave and line since it leaks and maybe a new steering rack.

Ill be sure to keep on updating the post as soon as it warms up again and once i finish mounting the rest of the type x kit. It's like 30 degrees in las vegas right now and it makes no sense.

Stolen from my buddies instagram story, putting the car away again for a week or two and get the brakes bled, new slave cylinder in, and get my timing set and new rack bushings. The car handles just as well dry as it was in the wet, can't get over how well its handling.

Flushed/Bled Clutch Slave (Thought it was leaking, it wasnt)
Aleast i have fresh fluid in it again.

also installed my PBM Offset rack bushings, idk how i feel about these yet, well see once i start driving. I have heard mixed reviews due to them being solid vs poly. I know they don't do much with actually relocating the rack forward but im sure it may help a tad.

Ill be pressure washing the underside of the car as soon as i get all my leak issues sorted. as of now its not really leaking but a small slow seep coming from a coolant line behind the motor along the firewall and power steering return and feed lines off of the reservoir. Those shouldn't be too bad of a fix.

Found out transmission drain plug was hand tight, this was the culprit of my little leak the passed year... I never drained the transmission so i assumed it was tight.... thats what i get for making assumptions i guess. Transmissions still good, just feels notchy getting into reverse and second sometimes but that could be due to the low transmission fluid... I drained about a half cup of fluid out smh.

Temps warmed up this Sunday so I last minuted decided to follow through and spray the front bumper again since i was tired of seeing the front end all ratchet. Bought a new DeWalt orbital sander and a spare harbor freight gun for base again which thank goodness i did since my regular HF gun decided to take a dump on me and I am usually really good at keeping them clean and whatnot but i guess the inner seal decided to just give out and let air into the paint cup. Sanded the bumper down, primed it, blocked it with 400, and just went through to base and clear, I didn't know i was pretty much out of reducer, and clear coat so I was lucky i had just enough for this. Here's a video of the straight out of the gun finish and some more photos. not perfect but not a show car also but also not complete trash so im happy. By no means am i a professional or even an amateur painter, i do this because i can afford the materials and have the equipment and would rather do it myself than pay an arm and a leg for a paintjob. It is very much do able to spray your own cars but it does take time, patients, and is not always the cheapest route.

Im not trying to destroy this car, cut into it, or buckle any fenders. I don't even have the front arches rolled. I am loving where the car is going though and can't wait to find OEM Rear valences and throw the type x wing on.

Picked up my Z32 Caliper Rebuild kit on my lunch today, supposedly I have read and been told that this should fit the R32 GTR Sumitomo calipers as well. I tried an oreilly kit and couldn’t get my piston to slide back in so I just cleaned up my old seals and threw them back in. Also compared the seal that came out of the caliper to the Z32 and they were different size. If anyone can chime in on any info I’d appreciate that !

So I have come to the conclusion that BrakeBest 15212 does not fit these calipers, the seals for the piston are too small and don’t allow you to fit it back into the caliper. I ended up going to my Nissan dealership and buying the OEM Z32 kit and that fit perfect. Calipers are off to my buddy now to get coated !

I may be late to answering this, but yes Bee*R will do worse for your rockers. It is not the RPMs that kill rockers, its the type of limiter. Ignition cut limiters are not friendly to SR rocker arms. PFC and stock ECU dudes can bang limiters all the time, but once you switch to ignition cut rockers fail (ask me how I know). I switched to a fuel cut in mine and its been good since. And in general I make an effort to stay off the limiter.


Also RAS really aren't that bad honestly. They will crack the rocker arm if it gets to that point in the head, but without them the rocker arm just falls off, which also sucks, but not as damaging. Dual guides and no RAS will probably be the safest bet. I still rock RAS though.

really wish i had better updates but money is keeping me from buying paint and getting the car registered and getting some fresh 100 octane in the tank. Also looks like i missed some updates. So after the drift even a few months ago my car starting wandering across the road, thought it was my rack bushings hence why i threw the PBM's on. It wasnt the rack bushings but the actual nut to the lower ball joint backed off and the passenger side wheel was moving freely all over the place. Got the car up on jack stands and tightened that up, with the ball joint all tight, new rack bushings, and pretty much all new suspension the car handles like a go kart. No play at all. heres an old video that surfaced just recently from a few months ago. Bear with me they're all stolen from IG and Snapchat.

Woke up at 5:45 for whatever reason this morning and well, decided to throw the Kouki wing on, and the rear valences. Debating if I should paint the car myself or just pay someone to do the body work and spray the whole car.

smashed out an oil change this morning as well. I won’t be able to take it out to the Vegas drift event this evening as much as the car is actually ready for it due to work and time constraints but this means it’s ready to go for next month 🤙🏼 hopefully get some seat time in again!

I could be wrong but I think hes asking about the position of the headlights themselves. From what I see in the pictures, they're not aligned right and seem to be pointing vertically up too much. I would look into that.

Either way car is looking nice and love the exhaust. Been debating about getting a HKS myself.

Since I haven’t been able to drive the car on the streets due to expired registration and it being 115 degrees here I needed to do something to the daily so i wouldn’t go insane driving a stock car. Kinda splurged like really bad. I sold my spare Kouki blacktop [emoji24] then picked up airrunner struts and airlift v2 management. So much money, tbh I don’t regret it though.

Got the calipers back, will be running Q45 295mmx28mm rotors with them. I get these at discount through work compared to sourcing 295x30mm GTR Rotors, will be placing my order for new slide pins and conversion lines soon.

Will slowly be redoing the car again, yanking the Mishimotor rad and replacing with a brand new Koyorad N-Flow [emoji177]
I still gotta trim my bumper support bars and throw those backon. Seeing the front bumper sag kills me.

It just occurred to me that the temps are at 80 degrees in the morning now and that pretty soon I’ll have to deal with 50 degree days and I don’t do well spraying in temps less than 80 degrees, so time to prep the car for paint before fall starts coming around.

Ok, so here’s the run down of what I think I’m gonna do with the car so far. I will be working on getting the car all one color and try to get all the body work sorted. Slowly been trying to knock sanding out https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20181004/0eecfabd27541087ebefd17fb3c42280.jpg after I finish up with the wing I’ll hit the valences with 220 then 400 and spray them.

I’ll also be refreshing the engine with new rod bearings and fix my timing issue. Decided to pull the valve cover this morning and double check the timing. I haven’t pulled it since I replaced my rocker arms last year. I always said I had a feeling it was a tooth off and I was right. Thanks to anyone who chimed in on my s-chassis Facebook post to help confirm proper timing marks etc. I appreciate that. Going to refit the PSM HMIC as well so I can throw my bumper brackets back on so my front bumper can fit and not sag anymore.

Also found out I have Tomei 256 poncams instead of HKS 264’s. No big deal, happy I can visually see what’s actually in the engine instead of going off a list someone’s given me.

long story short, was off a tooth on timing when I replaced my rocker arms. Havent touched it since, suffered stall out on deceleration and rich AFR's. Pulled rockers off, confirmed was a tooth off. Pulled it apart and readjusted timing. Put it all back together, did new plugs, and compression test and got 160 across the board and vacuum jumped from 10-15 back to the 20 it was at when i first got the motor. Up next is rod bearings as far as engine stuff goes and then continue putting on with prep work for paint. Thanks for reading guys

Thanks man ! Yeah I timed it wrong with I put it together earlier this year and never had the time or thought to pop the valve cover off. I should have done this right away, feels so good to hear it idle smooth

Since the car was an automatic conversion I never had a shift boot or the bezel that holds the boot on. I never cared to look as there were more important things I’d rather spend my time buying first but my homie ended up posting one up for sale so $20 later I now have a factory boot and bezel. nothing fancy but I’m stoked to not have a gaping hole in my center console. I’m trying to keep interior stock as possible with minimal necessities.

Koyo is a dual pass.

Mishimoto is basically an eBay radiator they charge more for.

I wouldn’t quite say it’s eBay but I prefer the Koyorad because the fitment of my OEM shroud is a lot better on the koyo in comparison to my mishimoto. My mishimoto hasn’t given me any issues with overheating or leaks but i bought it used to get me by and I’m just slowly replacing parts with new parts for peace of mind and aesthetics. The Koyo’s dual pass is a huge plus too though 🤙🏼

thank you, I did not realize the differences between the two. ive worked with mishi stuff recently and its nice/okay, but ive always been more drawn to koyo stuff. ill be in the market soon for my IS and I will be going koyo (IIRC, pricing is close between the two).


btw, that GS is perfect. so rad.

There’s nothing wrong with Mishimoto, there’s just some small details I noticed with my old Koyo that I liked better. For example my old koyo had a drain hole on it, the bolt holes for the fan shroud matched the OEM shroud unlike my mishimoto, there really isn’t much to the radiators as far as differences go but I couldn’t even bolt my shroud with two bolts, only one on my mishimoto which I don’t like. Call me picky I guess. I appreciate the kind words of the Lexus man, but the 240 is a lot more fun to drive. It’ll be road worthy again soon.

fell asleep driving totalled the lexus, registered the 240, haven't had time to really clean anything up or fix anything either but decided to say screw it and actually drive it.
Took it to VegasDrift and hit the north course, wish i had videos but very happy with how it handled. First time taking it on track, tried doing third gear on the long sweeper, didn't work, hit a cone, and ran over my fg lip.

Well looks like it’s been over a year since I been on, update, Trans has no fourth and picky getting into reverse, clutch master and slave don’t hold pressure, gear oil is all over my twin disc, engine starting to show it needs a reseal, whole car is in process of getting sanded down and engine getting ready to get pulled out for reseal and engine bay respray, also bought a new daily, 2015 GS350 F-Sport which I threw on bags again also. Haven’t driven the 240 since November of last year. Oh I forgot I bought an IS300 Sportcross also, needed some loving but it’s acceptable now

updating just because, is wagon got sold with the advans, so came up on some brand new 17x9/10 rpf1's for dumb cheap, yanked the engine to respray the bay and go over the engine, input shaft is broken on the trans as well as the fourth gear shift ring or whatever and Apex'i twin disc needs a rebuild so gonna grab some sizes and see if the Exedy hyper overhaul kit will work for the clutch. Which im 90% certain it will. Layed low on all the cars lately because im putting my money away for a flatbed tow truck. ill see if i can get some pictures up later on if anyone would really care.
