who has pic of a red s13 with cf hood?

[susuki1220]

I have seen all other color s13 with carbon fiber hood but not alot of the red color with cf hood. Is this a bad combo or what :axe:

[rainier]

does anyone know how to think for themselves anymore? what is it with all these newbified posts asking about basic mod bullcrap?

guh!

take a few deep breaths.....count backwards from ten....everything will be OK

[Andrew Bohan]

why search when you can ask people!

when i was little and asked my parents something, the first they'd tell me to do is look it up in the encyclopedia.

that got so ingrained in me that now i have a hard time asking anyone anything.
i just try to find out for myself.

people should be more like me.

[susuki1220]

If i can find it myself then i wouldn't have asked...... since you guys have seen pictures of a red s13 with a cf hood why dont you help a poor guy.

can't find anything with the search button. any suggestion on what to type to search for a red s13 with cf hood??????????????? you tell me!

excuse the 4x4 stance, I have to pull the fenders then she will be back down again.

Why is the back of your hood all jacked up?

[Andrew Bohan]

you know, zilvia isn't the only site on the internet. you CAN search google. you can even search for images on google.

[S14DriftR]

Why is the back of your hood all jacked up?
cuz it has a fwd b16 swap and the lift in the back provides downforce when my vtec kicks in....... :2f2f:

your kidding right? :tweak: :bowrofl:

[S14DriftR]

yes i am kidding. It was originally put up like that for stb clearance with stock hood and left that way due to laziness and I threw away the normal bolts. I have yet to test the cf hood to see if it clears the bar sitting normal. Luckily i have seen no negative effects on cooling like some people claim.

oh i c..... im glad your not driving a b16!!! :bigok: for some reason honda guys always make people think that vtec is like a turbo! :blah: if thats the case, ask them how many pounds of vtec they are running! :smash:

[kuruptR]

12-13 second ITR's are nuts with full na builds... there vtec kicks harder than some turb's. I appreciate a nice na car.

[susuki1220]

damn, now i wanna get a cf hood for my red s13....

i looked on ebay and only found like VIS cf hoods for s13 and they cost around 300$.... what other companies out there makes cf hoods for s13? any suggestions? :bow:

[kuruptR]

Vis hoods are great, quality is excellent. There a little heavier but safer than most carbon hoods on market, you can run these hoods with out hood pins. They have heavy ass fiberglass frames, but are sooo much lighter than a stock 240sx hood.

i dont know if i would run a cf hood without hood pins though, ive heard soo many stories about people not using hood pins and how it back fired on them! :smash:

[susuki1220]

hmmm.......... so VIS cf hood seems to be the hood everyone talks about :rawk: , i did some search typed "carbon fiber hood" all stuff come up has something to do with VIS. there must be another company that is equally as good.
I'm not a cf expert and i was also wondering how to determine if a carbon fiber hood is good? waht are the stuff i need to look for? fitment, weight, weave pattern? (how to tell what weave pattern is good? or all is good :smash: )

[S14DriftR]

yeah, i ran my vis for a couple days with no pins and it was scary, shaking alot, even though it is much stiffer than the hoods my friends use. umm as far as what to look for, all I cared about was that it was alot lighter than stock and had rolled edges.

[susuki1220]

s14drifter, saw the project car on your website with 89hatch. I saw you guys have the tein HE coilovers. and was wondering if you can provide me some offsets for the tein HE. I just recently bought a set and i'm having a hard time figuring out some numbers.

I came up with some number but don't know if its correct
FRONT:
7inch wide needs 20+ to sit flush with out fender rolling (I called them and they suggested this set up for the front) any comments?
Rear:
7 inch wide with 38+ offset (will this sit flush in the rear?)
8 inch wide with 38+ offset (was guesing this might be a better choice)

Please leave some suggestions on what offsets and width. thanks alot. :cry:

VIS CF HOOD HERE I COME!

[S14DriftR]

yeah, im running the He's on my coupe as well. With 7" front you should be able to go 0 offset without rolling depending on tire size and camber. the 7"+38 will be nowhere near flush in rear, neither will the 8" +38. But why not roll? its way easy to do yourself.

Im running 16x7.5-5 all 4 rolled fenders and very small pull in rear, and alot of camber on all 4 wheels.
