[Destructo]

That is a sweet s13, mad props on that.

[turboex]

thanks for the coments guys.

[blxmjx]

Car looks great!! Any front pics of the car? My car is at the bodyshop right now getting painted the exact same color. I wanted to see how well the unpainted cf hood matches w/the paint.

[old_s13]

car looks okay, not bad.. but the engine could use some cleanup.

remember, just say nO to tenzO..

- Mike

[mbmbmb23]

Too hot!!

[Dousan_PG]

need some new wheels and i hate bomex

but the car is nice otherwise
color is good

[turboex]

I have always likes tenzo, my friend had the same wheels for 3 years and never had any paint problems unlike my racing harts that the clear coat started to peal after a year. Pluss im in the process of getting sponcered by them so its all good. Oh andthe engine need major clean up.

[bobmeindertsma]

car looks really nice
looks like you've sunk a load of cash
into it!!!!

[turboex]

including car 10grand

[Steeles]

car looks really good man. and like Dousan Im not a huge fan of bomex's kits for our cars. but the conversion looks good :)

[old_s13]

tenzo is just not a reputable company, thats all.. but its all good, if you are happy thats all that matters i guess. did you sell your racing harts? I am sure plenty of people would by them, as long as they are not some gay FWD width/offset..

:confused:

:p

[XauthenticX]

do u have the pics of the back of the car?

[adey]

You know.. I have to be brutally honest... I like those wheels.

On the other hand, I don't like your suspension setup. what the f* are intrax springs doing on stock shocks supporting a car like that?!?!?!!! You'd think that with the kind of money you invested in the body/engine/intercooler, you'd at least have a good shock/spring setup with anti-roll bars and all.... :doh:

:confused:

:p

ok, i guess i need to clarify. Front, meaning head shots as opposed to quarter shots.

The picture above is usually referred to as a front quarter shot. I'm asking if he has a full frontal view.

[turboex]

dont hate, LOL. J/K ok heres the truth, I am using intrax as my boy had some and they ride great, feels just like stock. My car is for drag racing and not drift or autox or what ever. As of now i hit 1.6 60ft's on just drag radials all day long and the car rides great for the ride home. As of now i dont see any need for better spring, maybe if the drift thing catchs on up here all go with a full track setup. untill then im cool. as for wheels i want some nice deep volks, but i did not want to be the guy with tight rims on a car thats slow as hell. so for now im gonna put the money where it matters to me..under the hood. Im shooting for over 400hp this spring. then ill deal with little things like rims. Most likly it will have welds on it anyways. :p and as for turning a corner its just as bad as my civic. but i live in north dakota and theres not many corners that i can take over 30mph. and theres no auto x tracks only drag. So i gotta make do with what i have.

[turboex]

[DoriftoSlut]

Sorry to rain on your parade and soud like an a_ss but I hate it. This is going to be one of those threads here I told the dude with the stock white silvia face S13 coupe his car was boring. Oh well. Its just my opinion, and in MY opinion the car reminds me of a typical riced out EK civic. just the feeling I get... I dunno. Is your car faster than mine? Yes (in a straight line). Do i care? Does that mean I have to like your car or respect it? mmmm no.

Sorry Puff Dawg Daddy Poppa-Diddy-Pop, I'm not fellin yerrr car up in herrrrrre.

[DudeYourSoOOJDM]

If you want one you can get one imported, or go to japan and whore yourself out....then worry about customs.

Listen Dorito180SX, quit fockin around.. you can be cool, thats fine with me.. but you just make sure *I* get to make posts like this FIRST, biatch.

Shiet,... shiet!!! I dont even know what to say, this a/ss friggen took ALL the words out of my mouth.. now I'm just alone, rambling like an angry dogg..

[old_s13]

http://clearcorners.com/products/nissan/240sx1/R_hbsig/Image03.jpg

What, the lights you see above?

Listen, the ones that Aaron has are kinda crappy.. I dunno what happened to those, one of the lenses needs to be replaced.. thats probably why Aaron has them, I didnt care to change the lens! Aaron, if you wanna clean them up.. lemme know, I can cut you some new lenses and clean up those tails to like-new condition.

As for you, Dorito 190ZX, if you want a set, I have them in stock.. let me know, I'll take care of ya.. I have about 2-3 pairs of those lamps avail.

- Mike

[Dousan_PG]

I dont need that shiet.. I'm fackin gonna kill both of them, plus my other friend Adam.. they're all gonna pay.

Im totally missing your point here, you dont like it?? thats cool. faster in a streight line im sure mine is, why???? Because im fighting for your country in the USAF and as of now im stationed in North Dakota, So if you can find me a track with turns in it thats closer than 7 hours i would be clad to give in a run in the twisties. Untill then im gonna build it for how i can use it. And how can it remind you of a civic? Im lost here, Let me guess unless it has super deep and wide rims that distroy tires all day long cause the camber is so screwed up, its not cool. Im just playing with ya, man. But i drive this car everyday, its fun to race a mustang and stuff out in the country and at the track, if I did the car totally drifterXLZ or what ever it would be usless in the location that im at. M auto-x and drifter experiances is messing around in a parking lot, thats all we have here man. Please post a pic of some of the rides you like, it would be good to see other peoples taste.

[turboex]

Oh mine a coupe for those who missed it in the pic, and for the guys wanting the super duper JDm rhd silvia save your cash, my boy imported one and it was the bigest waste of money due toe the riced out rhd fad. Fun for looks a pain in the *** for street. LOL

[DoriftoSlut]

Hmm... Yeah Mike, when My car gets to Socal from Hawaii I will swing by and rob you....errrr pay for some cool lights!

Turboex, the Civic part is mostly due to the rims and such. Those are the only cars I see those rims on. And I know you are "messin" with me, but camber doesn't kill tires. Inpropper amounts of TOE kills tires. As for cars I like? Hmmm I dont know where to find pics off the top of my head. I like Dousan (Aaron's) car. Well I should, half of it was my parts loaned to him up till recently (little bastard). So I will just post a pic of my baby. Im seeing her tomorrow... Should have her painted by Wednesday. And more pics to come later this week...

http://www.imagestation.com/picture/sraid44/pae3c6c829fbbd91d8db50b33fd275a80/fcdef394.jpg

Therrrre, I post it for everyone to make fun of. It lives on the ground and drives around now. And by Wednesday most of it will be painted. So I urge you to make fun of it now...

[DJ Machine]

2nd question, any problems with venting to the atmosphere?

Engine brace helps a good bit in motor movement, but its being pulled from my car for the new turbo. My car runs perfect with the open air bov, no problems at all, i just had to adjust the spring untill it wouldent back fire and now its great. As for times im hitting a 8.6 in the 8th at 8psi-9psi. My wastegate spring is jacked and it wont push anymore, but i have a tial 40mm ready to go on. Oh as for the comment

"And I know you are "messin" with me, but camber doesn't kill tires. Inpropper amounts of TOE kills tires."

that is totally wrong, i am ASE master certified, im a mechanic in the airforce. And you can ask anyone with any alignment knowledge that camber will kill your tires, it will wear then quicker in the part thats getting the most load from the weight of the car. Thats just a fact. I seen nissan and honda guys all the time that get there cars lowered and then get an alinement but the shop cant fix the camber cause the cars too low of they did not want to get a camber kit, then they complain that there tires are all worn incorrect. Just a little info from a common tire site

"Excessive camber angles cause tread wear on one side of the tire only. With too much positive camber, the tire will wear on the outside edge. With too much negative camber, the wear is on the inside. Again, the pattern is a distinctive one and tells you at once that an alignment is needed."
Yeah i know the crazy tilted in tire look is all drift and all, but its looks gay as hell to see a car on the streets like that, just buring away tires.tire site (http://www.metropark.com/safewaytire/tireware.html)

Oh and what motor are you running it that thing? the bodys looking good., keep it up

[Dousan_PG]

no you ARE wrong.
many road racer/daily drive type run about -2.5 or so degrees camber..NO UNUSUAL WEAR! wears normal. and this is on s13..

i forget what alex chang's specs (mav1178) was but he had around -2.5 and NO unusual wear. its a fact. i know LOTS of people with quite a bit of camber and the wear is NORMAL. TOE KILLS.


excessive is a loose term to use

u can run -3 degrees camber and have NORMAL tire wear
as loong as you have 0 toe! VERY IMPORTANT..0 toe!!

beyond -3 you'll notice more wear
i had -3.5 and the wear was minimal but that was mostly because od drifting events
the -4..thats another story!

dorifto180sx has a kouki 180sx blacktop engine and a NISMO SSS 2 way LSD at the end..haha..

he's no poser. drifts very very good too, ive seen it!
:)

[turboex]

excessive is a loose term to use...
not a term i use, a term the industry uses. I wanna get all the miles i can out of my tires. But then again i have drag tires that i beat the **** out off, just as you do your drifting so i guess it all adds up. Maybe ill give the drifting a try once i get to calli but thats gonna be a few years yet. im stuck here for 2 more at least. so untill then ill be running the 8th, shooting for 500hp and high 6's.
If i ever get into the drifting thing ill do another car thats a beater 240sx and just throw a bit of small power in it and put the rest of the money in the suspension, clutch, and rear end. But painting and all that, hell no.... i cant trust my self that much, its hard to wreck a car in a streight line, but drifting........another story

[DoriftoSlut]

Yeah Dousan basically said everything (and more) for me. LOTS of Camber WILL kill tires... but if you are driving the car to use a good amount of Neg. camber, they will wear evenly. ie. if you corner hard enough often enough, high numbers of negative camber will not wear your tires more than usual. In fact, you will get excessive OUTer tread wear without enough camber. Dont go by "rules" since they may not apply to everyone.

Yeha Aaron has seen me drift his car... scary. That thing is a bull and gave me thehorns... we have too different of styles. ny_jee's car.... now THAT is my friend! Wooo hooo! Thanks to both of you, again, for that fun (and not so fun) day in vegas.

[DudeYourSoOOJDM]

Driving kills tires.....

they are quote " jus fah Dec'ration "

dont drive and you'll be fine.
