how many miles per gallon does this car get?
did you install the eco-assist technology button so that your ecu monitors your driving and gives you "green leaves" depending on how well you drive? the new insight has that.. very nifty.
i'll go back under my rock. but like everyone else said, post pics of the engine bay......... shiet

I will get 20-22 on the hwy but in boost it isnt very good.
on the dyno i got 6.5 haha but that was a lot of boost for a few hours.
Nice build.
what fuel pump(s)? are you using also is it on stock fuel lines? any engine bay shots?
I run a sumped stock fuel tank, with -10AN line to a Aeromotive A1000 fuel pump. after that it is 5/8 aluminum line under the car and then goes to -8AN to the fuel rail.
great E85 tune
are you running double fuel pump? any engine bay pics?
I only have a pic from last year with the old paint on the car but i will get that up asap.

Here is the only Hi-Res engine bay shot, it is from last year with my old paint job. i painted it because i didnt like how much flake that paint ended up having in it.

I made 522 running E85 also but a GT3076R pretty much maxed out the turbo at 2.08 bar
no knock at all aem ems too dual pump 1600cc injectors too. need a bigger turbo for more power . im staying there tho i dont want the laggy of a bigger turbo.
my friend has a Z06 exhaust/intake/aftermarket clutch/ ecu chip and tuned making 498 on a mustang dyno(hes car) we raced and were neck to neck 3rd gear i started pulling away (slowly) on 4 gear .
and yes i havent take a look at hows the MPG but doesnt seen bad at all. kinda like when i was running gas. NOW when u step on it pretty good thats when u see the ethanol going down,, its 2 bucks a gallon
BTW its ur turbo a PTE-SC44 impressive numbers if is that turbo

Very nice numbers... The car isn't so hot, monster truck tires and needs a drop, but I wouldn't race you.
it has a 2" drop in the front. and i run a larger wheel in tha back because they hook. i can spinn through first on the the street get my wheel speed up and grab 2nd as hard as i can and it will chirp the tires and go.
looks aren't on the top of my priority list. but if anyone wants to race lets do it. the only this is i probably live about 1,000+ miles from most people on this forum haha.

Yeah there are about 5 stations right in town but all of the import guys usually only buy from this one store so the ethanol is fresh. because not to many people run it and you never know how long it has been sitting in their tanks.

Dope motor/engine bay, and great numbers. Lots of boost :eek: I dig the number of people going to E85 though ~ how's your on/off-throttle and partial-throttle response with those huge injectors?

Ok, i guess ill take note of that.........
But your right about the opinions and how no matter where you go there will always be someone like you who has a problem with everybody elses stuff.

Thank you, The injectors are not toooo bad but idle is hard to get under 1800rpm. and then cruising sometimes it will give me a hassle but if you just lean into it a little bit it usually cleans up.
And if i didn't live in minnesota where you can literally lose a car in some pot holes the car would be a lot lower. But we have snow 7-8 months out of the year and the frost does a number on the roads so they are pretty rough most of the time. so that is a big reason the car sits how it does.

Before the dawn of the internet and not having alot of kits availble for the 240SX I could understand you guys not knowing any better and putting ugly kits and wheels on your car but with whats out there and the internet you have no excuse of putting together a backwards 90's kits on your car when it's 2009!

Nice numbers. I like seeing this because I have basically the same engine build (CP 87mm 9.0 pistons, stock rods) and it's nice to know it will hold that kind of power. Also, what bearings are you using? Just curious, I went w/ new OE bearings. I'm also running a t3/t4 50 trim and plan on seeing how 22-25 psi turns out on race gas. By the way, I'd like to know what exhaust housing you are running. I run the .63 on my 50 trim.

To be completely honest, id much rather see a car like this making some decent power, than see an s chasis with saggy ziptied unpainted body kit, stupid looking and insanely loud exhaust on a stock KA, and "flush" wheels, stretched tires and -5 degrees of camber.

It would be different I guess if he had asked what people think about the way the car looks. I think people that talk $hit like that are lame a$$ bitche$ and more than likely are the ones still running around on their T25 @ 10 psi making 210whp w/ a fucking incredible hulk,or balls, or something else goofy as hell hanging from the rear bumper.

It's not that everyone's car is cooler than his, it's just that when you post something in it's own thread on the forum, you're saying that it's special. What we're all saying, is that although his engine numbers are nice, the car still looks like ass, and it's not "special". It's been done.

why are you surprised?
i mean, his car looks weird. you cant spend all that time and money on engine bay and still have a car that looks ratty.
the whole goal of building a car is what................?
TO GET PUSSY
yes. your car can be fast, which is fine and dandy. but come on, if youre going to do it up.. go big or go home. cant have some cheapass bumper on there, no sideskirts, weird wheels, etc etc etc.....
spread the money around and make people appreciate the hard work and detail that goes into the entire car, not just the motor

The biggest problem with this is that you guys need the help of a car to get pussy with!!:keke: To many people on here buy the 240sx thinking that they have some sweet looking sports car . Don't waste your money on a sports car if it can't perform like a sports car! You guys are the same people that would go buy a V6 mustang or a honda civic and try and pretend it is a sports car!
This may come as a surprise to some people but there people out there that actually want a sports car for how it performs, not how it looks! Why say you have a sweet tire stretched, body kit, bass tracker paint job, fart caned sports car that would get beat by grandpa's buick!
Now I love my 240 but I didn't buy it for it's looks. I bought it because set up right and they can be an awesome "sports car" in any arena! Sorry if I offended anybody but seriously it is not all about looks!

I disagree entirely. These are certainly not the people that buy v6 mustangs.
Mike's playing with you - if he wanted to use a car to get pussy, he certainly wouldn't use his s13.
Our gripe is that it's not been made into a 'drag car', and he's playing it off like it's "done" and he likes it just how it is. It's just a funny looking s13 with a bomb motor.

No, I'm dead serious. We build our cars for numerous reasons, but the number one reason is................
TO GET PUSSY. Or dick, I mean.. if thats your thing (not that theres anything wrong with being ghey).
If you guys think that a car has nothing to do with how people perceive you, you're wrong. I had a friend back in the day who always got laid with his cars: Eclipse GST, Porsche Turbo, M3... no problem. But when he had his old Ford Truck, girls thought he was a fuckin rapist.
So lets cut the bullshit, appearance means a lot. It just sucks that some people dont care to put any effort into the entire package. I build a car as an entire car. If you dont care about appearance, go pickup a Dodge Omni Turbo.. its fast, light and cheap.

In case you didnt realize this, we men use ANY and EVERYTHING to get laid... examples:
- we buy nice clothes, dress to impress and to get laid
- we shower to smell nice, to get laid
- we listen to good music, to get laid
- we move out and buy/rent baller property, to get laid
- we spit game and show off our wit, to get laid
theres not one thing a guy doesnt do on purpose, to get a laid. if you dont think any of the above matters, try not showering, living at home, talking like a fuckin nerd, and wearing old clothes and worn down sneekers.. i'm sure you'll be a big pimp.

No, I'm dead serious. We build our cars for numerous reasons, but the number one reason is................
TO GET PUSSY. Or dick, I mean.. if thats your thing (not that theres anything wrong with being ghey).
If you guys think that a car has nothing to do with how people perceive you, you're wrong. I had a friend back in the day who always got laid with his cars: Eclipse GST, Porsche Turbo, M3... no problem. But when he had his old Ford Truck, girls thought he was a fuckin rapist.
So lets cut the bullshit, appearance means a lot. It just sucks that some people dont care to put any effort into the entire package. I build a car as an entire car. If you dont care about appearance, go pickup a Dodge Omni Turbo.. its fast, light and cheap.
Number one reason huh? Sucks for you, wasting tons of money on a 20 year old nissan to pick up chicks :rofl: i can imagine the chicks you're pulling
i build my car cos its fun. i enjoy working on it, and i enjoy driving it. i couldn't care less what you, or that hot chick in the slow lane thinks :mrmeph:.

i will say that you've managed to make your `90-era NISSAN S13 look like an `80s-era NISSAN Z31 300ZX.. and that my friend, is NOT a good thing.
i lol'd. Truth
nice numbers

wow, this thread has officially been ruined by dumb asses.
ON TOPIC POST:
fuck what people say about your car man, power at the wheels= respect.
I don't care what you car looks like, i'm in the same boat, when my car is done it'll put down 400+ and still have the ugly army green primer on it that it sports now. WHY? Because it my fucking car and I care more about going fast than I do about shiny paint, if anything I want someone to look at my car and think "fuck that shit is ugly" followed by the next thought "HOLY SHIT! THAT CAR IS FASTER THAN FUCK!"
to each his own, just glad to see someone care more about the inside than the outside of the car. one question, why E85? I guess I don't understand that because here in the south E85 is a bit harder to come by than 93 octane.

1) I'm married
2) I have multiple cars
3) You're clueless
Sorry I guess I shouldnt build the S13 because its 20 years old. My bad, I'll go back to working on the `73 240Z instead. Is 35+ years old better?
fuck what people say about your car man, power at the wheels= respect.
Exactly! Fuck pretty paint, its all about power.
I guess we hang up pictures of cars like the ZR1 Corvette, or the Lamborghini Diablo, McLaren F1... because they're in fuckin army-green primer, right?
You guys are fucking clueless. Gotta have the beauty and the braun to create a proper build.

no you hang up a picture of a ZR1, Diablo, or McF1 because you can't afford them, also because they are engineering marvels from their time you jack ass, paint them glossy or flat, it won't matter, they are still over enginerred for their time and that will forever remain the one thing that makes them iconic.
I agree that the complete package is deff what everyone wants in the end result, hell I'll have more time in my paint and clear, but only when I get to that point, I'm in no rush. All the more reason to piss off the guy in the ZR1 cause he got walked on by the army-green primered S13.

haha, and when army green primered s13 guy sleeps alone that night after walking the corvette, the ZR1 guy is at home fulfilling the definition of Darwinian fitness.

2) if youre building a 240sx or an old z to pick up chicks, you got it all wrong. i dont care how sick they are.

oooooh you're in trouuuuuuuublle......... trouble.......... trouble!
like seriously, who cares. its a forum, people chit-chat, shit happens. what do you expect when someone posts about their car, people will talk. does it all have to be positive? notice how no one said anything about the guys power charts or motor... all dandy
now as soon as we go off topic and make fun about the looks of his car, now its time to moderate, clean thread, blah blah.
its just discussion... leave it at that. dont get upset because the topic isnt exactly what you or anyone expects it to be. now lets all continue talking about this guys powerful (but funky looking) s13.

Rad engine setup. Very impressive numbers. Well done.
Visually, it leaves alot to be desired. Its not that you're not doing all the right things, its that you're doing all the wrong things. Silly bumper, silly wheels... Eh, not my car, anyway. As long as you're happy, thats what counts!
Your car is like... A girl that is intelligent, compassionate, an awesome cook, great taste in music, has an amazing sense of humor... Basically, she's perfect mentally, but she's ugly as fuck and doesn't shave at all. You want her, but you stay away, because she's fucking ugly and hairy.
Seriously though, good numbers.
