What is the point of making it RHD? Does it really get tracked that much?

Car belongs to Rock, very cool guy and extremely detailed in his work. His last car was so clean you couldn't tell it was switched over without serious inspection.

I don't get what's so "SICK ASS" about this S14.

Ebrake is sick
:werd: Is it possible to do that on a drum ebrake assembly? Is it purely hydraulic or hydraulic/cable? I really want to do this to my car so I can have an even stronger ebrake as well as be able to move my Brix closer to the transmission tunnel without having the bolsters bump into my ebrake. It bothers me to be sitting a little to the left of the center of the steering wheel.

And it seems to have a whole shitload of problems:The car has a few dings on it, has a dent where a tire blew up on the under side of the rear quarter, and it can use a new paint job. There is a little bit of rust on a corner of the windshield frame, and a little around the trunk area, it just needs a little rust converter and paint as it is surface rust. Its defiantly not a concourse ready car, but with a little love would make an amazing show or race project car. It would be a perfect car with a set of coil overs and some minor body work and paint (can you find a S14 anymore that dosent need these things?).

The car has the RHD ABS unit installed in it, but the control unit wiring is not hooked up, I would imagine it will be a pain to wire as the control unit is in the rear of the car. The factory LHD control unit is there so it may be possible without extra parts.

To make the AC work it needs a set of factory softlines (no need to cut and splice as its on the correct side), a dryer unit ($50) and a R-134 charge. I lost the softlines while moving my office. I would imagine they are not too hard to get. It is completely wired up with the factory JDM wiring and ready to go.

It needs a set of Hub rings for the cobra wheels, 66.06 to 70.1 MM, I cannot find these anywhere online and will have to be custom made. I was quoted $100 to have them made. The cobra wheels will vibrate at 100-120kph, I dont drive on the freeway to work so its not been a problem and has been put on the back burner. It will ride fine on the Stock SE wheels.

The Steering wheel air bag is not hooked up, The 1997 japanese Silvia donor clip did not have a passager side air bag, so essentially the car has no airbags.

The horn does not work, neither does the gas gauge. both just need wiring. The low gas light works and im always in the city, so I havent messed with it.

The CNC ebrake needs to be rebuilt (kit avail from CNC). It was pulled many times while out of the car with no fluid and the seals are bad.

Its clean, but I don't really understand the point of RHD....I guess it is JDM Tyte or whatever but I personally wouldn't Spend that kind of money on that.

If youve ever driven RHD you know its a fun experience. Who cares how many problems it has , its not his problem as soon as he sells it

R240NA you flame people for asking about or for wanting to do rhd conversions and when someone that you know does it you drool all over it. What, just because you know the guy and his name is ROCK it's supposed to be cool?

:blah:

Dude, okay, seriously, you're worse than Brandon and his "I must defend the CA18" zealotry...

You have a KA.

You've never had a SR20, let alone seen one, I'd bet.

Yet you're somehow qualified to talk shit about it and say its a "pussy" engine based on shit you've read on the internet?

And we all know how reliable the Internet is, right?

Seriously, shut your mouth unless you have some firsthand experience. The SR20DET, like any other engine, has its pro's and con's, and is not perfect, despite whatever misinformation you learned on zilvia.

ON TOPIC: I remember Rock's old car, before some chick in a Mustang fought it and won... :(

He does some seriously good work, Russ knows whassup.

Nice car, but it needs a bit of work, it seems.

I think he is running the SR because it makes it as close to a true JDM S14 as possible with the RHD swap.....What do you define as a "real motor?" oh wait let me guess CA18DET...but im sure you'll come back with some dumb comment so whatever, I just think you need to follow Kazuo's advice and bite your tounge until you REALLY TRULY know what you are talking about.

And here I will do the flaming for you

"Matlock you need to just fuck off you don't know me and you don't know anything about me, you are just a poser with a shitty TOYOTA! In case you didn't notice this IS a Nissan Forum GUY! :rl:

Wrong on every point.

I've never flamed anyone for wanting to a RHD, that's their call and they can do whatever they feel. I flame those who ask stupid questions about it, like the kid who tried to weld an S13 front clip onto his S14, or the guy who worried his suspension wouldn't bolt up anymore. Same as if they wanted to a motor swap, bolt in different seats, etc., they get flamed for ignorance about the topic, not the topic itself.
And when did I drool? I met the guy, he's very cool and does good work. That's all I said. No, it's not my cup of tea, but I can respect and appreciate anyone who does clean work, whatever it is.
Quit trying to start shit. You have a problem with me personally, settle it off the forum or drop it.

MakotoS13
04-16-2005, 08:21 AM
as expected people got defensive like a dropped a bomb or screwed their mom. i make flagrant accusations of the SR being a pussy motor to balance out the MULTITUDE of you that claim its horsepower producing superiority. i think im just as qualified to defame it as those that constantly jack off to it.

it works both ways and i choose to knock it because despite it being a decent engine the measures people go through to secure one seems completely unreasonable.

oh, and there is no real reason to swap out a KA for a motor with less actual potential.

p.s. you kids really need to lighten up.

the whole idea of calling sr a pussy motor is just dumb. especially if theres nothing to back it up.

I just love how Makato talks shit about peoples cars when he has a stock 240. Constructive Cristism is one thing, but saying sr is a "pussy motor" and all sorts of other BS is just ridicously stupid.

MakotoS13 has some kind of personal issues.... i don't think i have seen one post by this guy that has been positive.... try to be positive sometime i think every1 in this forum thinks you're a dick, but i guess that doesn't matter much to u....

btw about the original topic... it's a very clean looking car.... i'm wondering... is it possible to do a rhd on a ka motor....

you kid really should get off the forums and do something. im with art in basically saying stfu. every time i come on here i see some ignorant crap you post. seriously, take your eyes off the screen, and go outside. do something to your car, and stop sitting here waiting for people to post something.

o my f*$%ing god... i cant believe this crap... here i am browsing on zilvia, and i see a topic about a nice s14 with a s14 sr.. then i look down and makotos13 talking shit about yet another thing on zilvia he has no clue about... basicly art said everything i was gonna write so im not gonna sound like a broken record...

o wait maybe i will, ill be a asshole like makoto

your s13 is freaking STOCK... actually my mistake.. it has 5lug, a b&m shifter, and kouki s13 tail lights OoOOOOOOOooooOO that magicly means u know everything about the 240 and the sr... Almost every topic i read on here is makoto spitting out garbage, i dont understand how he is not pinked, when a bunch of other people who actually contributed to the zilvia community got baned, or pinked...

whatever, im not gonna waste more of my time on this stupid argument..


BTW that s14 is nice, and i wouldnt see why it wouldnt be possible doing a RHD conversion with a KA.

Not trying to start shit but sometimes it's hard to ignore the stench of sarcasm from your previous posts. Oh well no big deal. Moving forward, ignoring the stench and no hard feelings.

a nice little dose of irony is that my initial post in this thread was in fact a compliment on the manner of execution of the mods that i think actually suck THUS effectively making it a genuinely positive post. then you fellas had to go and muck it all up with your angst and bitterness. ya know, you could have saved yourself a lot of typing if you actually read this part:

"despite it being a decent engine the measures people go through to secure one seems completely unreasonable."

seriously though, if you're gonna try to rip on my car at least get a full mod list and maybe itemized report of the $1600 in parts i have comin from spl.

KA, SR, CA they ALL have potential. It is a matter of choice. You are just biased and ignorant. And from what people have been posting about you I also didn't realize how many people here really don't give a rat's ass about you. Someone even imitated your SIGNATURE :rofl:

i like how you're calling me ignorant yet you still overlook the meaning of my initial post.

is this SR thing really so important that you blindly try to assault me despite my actual complimentary posts about the guy's work? you're ignoring FACT because i stated my opinion both good and bad of a car that you have exactly zero experience with.

its pretty obvious that you just want to whine about mean ole me. we're done here, chuckles.
