240sx_sr20det · 03-08-2008, 08:57 AM

It's the weekend....

WHERE ARE MY UPDATES?!?!

TheS14project · 03-14-2008, 12:21 AM

Sorry for the delay in posting updates, the weekend was uneventful and this week has just been a bad week altogether. However I did start to mockup the front end and started to get things ready for the wiring of the motor. This weekend is going to be shot for working on it, but I hope to get some more done on it next week. Thanks to everyone whos given me rep on this thread Im doing my best to return the props. Thanks again.

Great job man! I think s13.4's look sick. Good luck with the build.

driftyour40 · 03-16-2008, 08:07 PM

looks great, cant wait to see it finished.

im2gq4u01 · 03-29-2008, 07:16 PM

updates please.

ms!3 · 03-29-2008, 07:35 PM

9/10 people talk shit about rb20 and ive had my share too. but after awhile im somewhat liking them. Im sure you could have a cheap/fun set up out of that motor. Id imagine its be pretty reliable as well. hmm

ntm its a little different and im sure itll sound badass from being a straight 6.

JesusFreakDrifter · 03-29-2008, 11:51 PM

a lot of drift vehicles run these for good reason im guessing. on top of which they sound pretty nice. and go for cheap. +1 on the build btw

duffman1278 · 03-30-2008, 01:29 AM

+1 for the build man AND patience! post up some updates asap, and whore the pics lol

PoorMans180SX · 03-30-2008, 11:34 AM

You're awesome for reviving a chassis like this! There are only so many out there.

Definitely a cool build I'll be tuning into.

TheS14project · 04-08-2008, 08:54 PM

Thanks everyone. Ill be updating a lot more this weekend, been really busy at the bodyshop I work at and Ive been slacking on the car for the past few weeks.

dsc4130 · 04-09-2008, 03:53 AM

Nice work.

I have an S13.4 as well. Do you think the front looks weird on a coupe? Mine is a fastback.

ripnbst · 04-09-2008, 08:04 AM

I think it looks better on coupe but thats just me, its all personal preference same as the normal coupe vs hatch battle

blueshark123 · 04-09-2008, 08:40 AM

This build looks familiar to me was it on clubrsx as well?

s14_legend · 04-09-2008, 09:08 AM

very nice build

PoorMans180SX · 04-09-2008, 09:33 AM

Seriously this is the cleanest RB20 build I've seen.

You should setup a blog so we can scroll through it and drool when you're done. I'm sure this thread will be like 20 pages.

sirhc · 04-09-2008, 10:19 PM

Nice, looking good!

PoorMans180SX · 04-14-2008, 01:34 PM

Updates?!?!

I'm excited.

TheS14project · 04-20-2008, 01:40 AM

Thanks everyone, and Im not a member of ClubRsx so its not me...lol

I did get my Nardi wheel sprayed this week along with quite a bit done today.

Onto todays updates, my buddy came over this evening and helped me get the new timing belt on and the car timed(twas being a hooker) After he and the crew left I started the wiring process. Still have to run a few wires once its in the car, clean it up, loom and tuck it, but for the most part the engine and trans harness are done. It looks like a spaghetti mess at the moment, but its coming along better then I expected.

All of the tools needed when wiring a motor thats not suppose to be in that type of car...lol

Trans Harness

Engine Harness

Starting to Install and tuck the Chassis Harness

mr_240sx · 04-20-2008, 08:42 AM

ByeByeSti · 04-20-2008, 01:50 PM

EchaKqulo · 04-20-2008, 03:10 PM

This project is coming up very nice. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK!!
I have been searching around for S13.4 conversions i have been reading in couple of places that the S14 front end is a bit wider than the S13s so a wide body kit would need to be used. I have seen from this pictures that the fender used does not seems to be wider as i have seen in some other S13.4 projects. I see that the in the front of the fender has the S14 "lines" and in the back it matches the S13 "lines" that goes all the way to the back of the car. Where did you get the fenders from? Did you have to cut the radiator support to fit?

blueshark123 · 04-20-2008, 03:43 PM

that steering wheel looks 10x better keep up the work man
