finally my cars resurrection should be this weekend.

[illvialuver]

My car has been out of commision for about a year and 4 months. and now I am done. I spent/wasted alot of time, messing around with other options. I got it as a ka-t but than it started blowing some smoke and making noise. so I stopped driving it, took it apart, and than after 6 months decided to go back to na ka24de. I have full suspension, and now I have final konnexion sides and front, along with some new interior ish, and 350z wheels for now. I am painting the aero this sunday, and I just finished rebuilding the motor, and puttig in all new gaskets. I know it is not turbo, but it is super clean. I will post pics as soon as I finish. Just been without my car for so long, and am stoked to finally get almost all aspects of my car finished.
I have a black zenki s14 btw.

and I am just nervous because I did all te work myself, so I hope it all goes smoothly.

[Team DET]

[BustedS13]

my bad here's some repz. good times

[illvialuver]

sooooooo after two days. i finished my interior.


and as of right now here is the status. i will post pics probably tomorrow.


I dont have before pics of how bad and messed up everything was. but I have been busy just ask crashqueen.


so here is the status.

engine bay clean and detailed. and repainted to black. everything looks new. like it rolled off the showroom floor in 96. the engine is just as fresh and clean. i had to remove the obd2 intake manifold, ( which is now apart due to me changing the gaskets and vacume lines) than i will bolt that up tonight, as well as removing the tranny and cleaning it,) than tomorrow i will bolt the tranny and starter up as well as change the rear main seal, and i have to put the a/c lines in and than i wil drop the motor.
once that is done, I will finish wetsanding the sideskirts and bumpers for paint. and i am picking up my wheels on tuesday. after tuesday i just have to register and insure it.


bad news is, one of the jacks gave way as i was goign to put the jackstand under passenger side of the car, and the jack failed and the car dropped and the jackstand was not placed and i put a big dent under the side of the body and now i have to pound that out before the passenger side of the sideskirts will fit caust there will not be space for it.

sigh. shit. well atleast the door opens, and everything looks great. i just pray everything works on the engine. just wanted to keep all of you posted, aaaaaannnnnndd for the ones that have read this I will give first dibs to anyone that wants my ....
jdm din gauge cluster for the s14( 75 obo)
power steering pump from a 94 ka24 de (70 obo)
ka motor mounts(40 obo)
tranny mount (20 obo)
I will put this stuff on the for sale thread once I finish the car, this week.
I might even have a ka alt.

hit me up if interested. and mods sorry if i broke the rule by posting this stuff for sale in the chat thread. just wanted to give the people who read this thread dibs.

[illvialuver]

soooo I was putting the intake manifold back together when i realized I need a new rubber hose because one of the ones i need is starting to crack. so i have to wait till tommorrow to continue so time for some pics.

[illvialuver]

good luck with your project, motivates me on being patient with mine.


this project has taught me patience, and alot about my car. if you want to learn more about your car. take it apart and put it together. some people might think your a crackhead.

[RoadtoZion]

[luisgonz]

[illvialuver]

okay so im going to post some pics of what i did yesterday.

I was going to wait till tomorrow, but I need to make sure a certain someone has something to read and look at while they are at work.( and yes you know who you are)
so here is the low down.

yesterday I .......

changed the gaskets and all the hoses( fuel and vac) on the intake manifold.
mounted all the brackets

so thats yesterday. and yes I know the the cutoffs are a bit redneck, but its africa hot here and it just makes sense.

[illvialuver]

and the rundown for today......

I needed to find a 96 pigtail for the maf, which I did not have because of the previous setup.

and in freshole thats as easy as finding binladen. but I did find one and it cost near 40$.

so than I have to splice it and put it in. so today the motor was already in, but I needed to bolt in the motor and tranny mounts, and hook up the wire harness, and all the heater hoses and vac lines, and i re wrapped all the ecu lines so thhey are clean new electrical tape, and I had to put on all the brackets.
I also put in my new shift boot after I filled the tranny with lucus oil and 80-90.
I than put in my new personal steering wheel and works bell hub. and my titanium shiftknob and ebrake knob.
all of which I owe a big thank you to Logan at ASPEC.
love the parts cant wait to finally use them . I know I also need new carpet, gear oil seeped all over the carpet. so hear are the pics.

[Bubbles]

and wherever you see hard work there is usually a mexican somewhere close.


Quoted for truth.

[JRas]

and here is a pic of the damage that i have to fix cause by the jack that failed.
http://i519.photobucket.com/albums/u352/robberytoe/IMG_5134.jpg

where were you jacking from? and how did it fail?

[CrashQueen]

okay so im going to post some pics of what i did yesterday.

I was going to wait till tomorrow, but I need to make sure a certain someone has something to read and look at while they are at work.( and yes you know who you are)



i know this certain someone. ;)


can't wait till you drive back down to socal. Damn, you have made some crazy progress in a short span of time. Your hard work is definitely paying off.


You'll be here in no time and i'm excited for you. :aw:

[illvialuver]

where were you jacking from? and how did it fail?



i was jacking from the frame, but the jack failed. I had one more pump to go before I could place the jack stand where i need it, and than the jack made a loud whine noise and dropped that ish on the body.

[JRas]

i was jacking from the frame, but the jack failed. I had one more pump to go before I could place the jack stand where i need it, and than the jack made a loud whine noise and dropped that ish on the body.

that's horrible :(

always jack from the front subframe or the rear differential

[illvialuver]

yeah I know where to jack the car from.

today i was going to start her up but it got too late. and my car would be loud as hell, because I don't have my exhaust hooked up because the old setup was turbo and i would need a down pipe.

today I just put the alt and powerssteering pulleys on, and went to osh and found some clean ass clamps for the wireharness, the ones that screw into the upper timming chain cover.

put the radiator in, the fan, the intake, finished the wireing.

put the fan shroud on, put the hood on, cleaned off the old nissan badge, put in the glove box in and cut the whole in the back for the ipod. and had to run some errands.

by tomorrow the car will be running for sure. just have to put in some fluids, siphon out the old gas. than I have to go to the exhaust shop and have it fixed.

i spent today just double checking everything to make sure everything is cool.
just dont want to make any mistakes, and cut any corners.

[IHasLongTorso]

Like I said... Hijacked!!!!! SO good. Here is my progress It will be running friday. Just waiting for a few odds and ends like fan shroud and what not.

I just have to do some little things and I am done.

[awdrftr]

wow very nice, looks better than the other guys that kacked your jdm handicap magnets....lol jus playing guys...<(^0^)>

[illvialuver]

sorry andrew i am not diggin the color. i know you were fgoing for purplish, but i think it looks more pinky.
maybe its just the flash.
but it does look crean.
everything is done, going to hook my ish up and try to get it running. i love the way the end product ended up looking. now i just gotta paint the body kit and get my wheels.

[illvialuver]

so these pics are of what got done last night. today I filled the fluids, dry started here to get the oil going and than when I went to wet start her, she did nt start. I dont think my fuel pump is kicking on, or I might have missed something somewhere. I will trouble shoot and have it running strong tomorrow for sure. It was hot as Africa today, so I am drained. here are some pics.

http://i519.photobucket.com/albums/u352/robberytoe/IMG_5175.jpg
my trust dd does not bolt up so i need to go to a muffler shop to fix it.


eveything is hooked up ready to start.
http://i519.photobucket.com/albums/u352/robberytoe/IMG_5179.jpg
and without the flash so you know its not green.
http://i519.photobucket.com/albums/u352/robberytoe/IMG_5180.jpg

hopefully tomorrow will be the day.
I should be getting my body kit finished tomorrow as well as picking up my wheels.
and getting the car started.

this project has taken alot more time than originally expected, but I am doing my best to make it perfect, and double and tripple checking everything and cleaning everything takes alot of time.

[coreansurfer]

no more kat eh robb?

[IHasLongTorso]

I will force him to go kat. Even if I have to pay for it. Or Vq. Ill even do all the labor as long as he pays for the drinks when its done. Lol

[240driftin[Sil80]]

why not pay for the drinks WHILE you work haha.

[IHasLongTorso]

Because then there nothing to look forward to when its done other than a dui. Hahaaha. I just can't have my car that much faster than his. Yadadamean?

[punk138]

im not alone. been sitting since last november. finally got the motor mount i needed and auto pilot bearing out. should be running soon...

good luck hope it all works out.... :)

[240driftin[Sil80]]

ya ya i feel ya. fuck a dui

[illvialuver]

so yesterday I dry started it and it stil would not start when i went to wet start it.
I was certain it was the battery, so I charged it, and the charger says it is full but when i turn it over it just sounds like shit. so i check the fuel pump wiring, and turns out one of the grounds was not on, ground it, turn the key and the fuel pump comes on, but car does not start, i take the key out and the fuel pump is stil running. so unplug the ground. confused like all hell. going to buy a battery tomorrow, and hope that I can fid whatever electrical problem i have( if I have one).

and to top it all off, I fell asleep in my car while waiting for te battery to charge, it was like 100 degrees plus in the shade, and when I woke up I locked my keys in the car.
what a day!!!

but its not that bad. hoping for tomorrow.

[illvialuver]

update. gay ass wiring, cause te ecu to fry now i need a new ecu. obd 2.
fuck. such a pain in the ass.
it will be worth it though.

[coreansurfer]

http://zilvia.net/f/sale-items/207878-otis-leaving-rb-performance-sale.html

this guy has ecus

[illvialuver]

not anymore

[sunnys14]

Did you redo the fuel pump wiring like I told you?

Get a new ECU and fire it up.

[skippy k]

Its looking real good man. i'd send you my ecu for free, but its off a sohc KA :[
and yano, you should be glad no one decided to go under the car to take a peek while you were jacking it..that woulda been terrible.
but anyway good luck running the motor.

[IHasLongTorso]

Tonight is the night for me. Im doing everything I can to get an ecu for you. Goodluck bro.

[illvialuver]

ed at R&D Factory will be providing an ecu for me. much thanks goes to him.


my current ecu code was ca, but I am getting a cb.
the cb is from an automatic 96 and that is what my car was before the 5spd swap.


and tonight I finish the paint ont e fk skirts and front and oem rear.

tomorrow I am picking up the 350z wheels.

[illvialuver]

[jorge1190]

[illvialuver]

okay so still waiting on the ecu.
but I did get my wheels and tires today.
and I finnished painting the front bumper , tonight i paint the sides and rear.
after the clear coat i will wet sand them.

but while I waited I decided to black out my interior.
so the cloth on my doors are black as weel as the headlinner and the sun visors. and the back seats and the radio deck lid.

here are pics of the wheels.

[WangonwWarrior]

Im jacking you off, thread wise jeeze. here is my resurrection, only its KAT :). Maybe this will change your NA mind.
I bought this bitch for $950

[illvialuver]

yeah well i was ka-t and i liked it, but you really cant be cheap with it, because it just blows. I think If i ever go ka-t I will change the pistons and rings, with a overbore and custom crank.

[WangonwWarrior]

Im only going to run 7psi on my t25 and getting my safcII dyno tuned so hopefully it wont blow:x:

[illvialuver]

that should be good enough
i was running 13 -16 psi on a t3 t4 hybrid top mount
shit was fun. but i think it is time to learn and go na so i can make my ability surpase the ability of the car. than i will increase power.

[FIlthy 24O]

i follow illvias thinking.....thats a very nice way to put it

[WangonwWarrior]

that should be good enough

wow, beautiful words:love: +1 for a logical mind. I started my driving in a s13 na i built up slightly, the best way to learn how to drive is to keep in slow so you can learn how to use all of the power where you need it on the track.

[I10cruiser]

this is coming along awesome!!

[illvialuver]

okay okay I am like 99 percent done. I just need to get the ecu in from RD FACTORY.
but my kit is on and the wheels ar eon so here are the pics.

first off, I didnt get the final konnexion rear bumper yet, but I got a factory one to rep[lace the damaged one.

i think it came out okay. I had to use a sawsall and cut the sides off the front bumper support and i need the front turn signals from B.Rogers.
a big thank to b. rogers for the front and john (addictedt2kouki) for the sides. I have always wanted this kit. thanks.

[illvialuver]

I am going to detail the car tomorrow. full claybar, and wax. and it will be day light so i will post better pictures.

[illvialuver]

[abstrakt]

I know the pain man, My old S13 coupe sat in my garage for a good 6 months after I accidentally drove straight into a flooded road and blew the headgasket and cracked my radiator. I was floating for a few minutes, S13's make pretty good boats..Good luck.

[drftwerks]

why didnt you get the rear bumper?

[rc1honda]

Nice man congrats, i know how you feel. I bought a car about 6 months ago and my buddie did an engine swap for me. It's a 91 240 coupe. He put the SR in and then he helped me put all the mods, im not really experienced at all. Now next thursday we are taking it to the dyno, so i can drive it, but i it still needs paint some areo,coilovers and some interior, but here is to getting are rides back on the road. Car looks good to. Im going to paint mine black to, Looks good and doesn't draw the wrong kind of attention.

[DUFFM4N]

I get my ecu in the mail from my friend ( which was before the one i order from R & D factory) and he sent it a week after they did.

well I plug it in and te car still cranks and does not start. so i check fuel and spark, has spark but the fuel dribbles out, so i check out the fuel pump and the previous owner did not have the factory plug on the cap, so i get a new one and wire it up, now the fuel pump is great, has plenty of presure. so i check all my fuses and the only one that is bad is the 12v one under the kickpanel. Now I am super stressed out. I have no idea what could be wrong. rather than ask everyone for help and get a million answer from a million people. I am downloading the factory service manuel and look up the troubleshooting for te problem.
wish i knew. shit is drivin me crazy and it is stopping me from moving down south.
I look at this thread title and it makes me laugh, cause it is not done like the title says it is suposed to be.

GOT THE CAR RUNNING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
upper timming chain was off.
turns out the space between the cam sprocket marks is 14 links and the exhaust cam needs to be at the twelve oclock position and the intake needs to be at 9 oclock.
so she runs, and the exhaust was not bolted up so i had to drive it to the exhaust shop and it sounded like a ww2 bomber.
but on the way back from the exhaust shop i noticed my heater hose is too tight and is leaking at the clamp. going to get that done tomorrow, it is such a pain to get to it due to the abs and the position of the hose.
