Some of you may know, I picked up an S13 a few weeks ago as a project. I still don't have a decent daily but... you know... priorities. lol
91 240SX Base. Came with a few simple mechanical mods in addition to some ricey interior bits: welded on muffler AEM intake Kazera wheels I got it mainly because it was almost completely rust free, low miles, ran well and wasn't modded to oblivion. (IMG:http://i65.tinypic.com/2cyk55z.jpg) (IMG:http://i68.tinypic.com/znx0rr.jpg) (IMG:http://i68.tinypic.com/34dsi20.jpg) (IMG:http://i63.tinypic.com/28kppux.jpg) I have since replaced the old and mismatched spark plugs with NGK Iridiums (IMG:http://i63.tinypic.com/10oo7yq.jpg) (IMG:http://i64.tinypic.com/2cpcoxf.jpg) Replaced the 25 year old fuel filter with a new K&N one (IMG:http://i64.tinypic.com/24w7up1.jpg) (IMG:http://i66.tinypic.com/ftomk0.jpg) (IMG:http://i63.tinypic.com/5lyo2w.jpg) I've also reset the ECU since it was throwing a CEL for no reason (hasn't come back) and replaced some burnt out fuses for various unimportant bits and got new wipers! Right now its in the shop getting the AC repaired since everything related to the AC was not working... its expensive but will be worth it because Florida is HOT! I have new brake pads and rotors on the way since the current brakes feel very heavy and make a bit of noise/pulse when you slow down. Hawk HPS and EBC Rotors. Got in some of the pads today. (IMG:http://i68.tinypic.com/2dtdmr4.jpg) I also ordered a new shift knob since the cheap ricey one (has markings for a 6 speed on it (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) ) that the P/O had on it literally came unglued in the Florida heat. I ordered a TWM Phantom. Expensive, but I've heard good things. My goal is to get this thing in tip-top shape and then start modding it from there. Or mod it as I replace things that need to be replacing anyways. End goal is to boost the KA and when/if I blow it, decide if I want to swap anything else. Next item on the list once I finish with everything I've ordered is to replace the power steering and water pump belt and order some coil-overs and get an alignment. I'm looking at BC Racing BR with the Swift spring upgrade. I'll probably order them soon. I'll probably keep this fairly updated as I don't think I'll keep a build thread open anywhere else. I don't think anyone cares to see another S-chassis build. lol |

Bad news.
While testing swapping injectors, the O-ring on one fell off and flooded the motor when I started it up again and let it run for a bit. It hydrolocked (fuellocked?). I even had fuel coming out of my exhaust. I didn't recognize it right away even though it was running like garbage because it was already running a cylinder down so I figured it was just running differently due to a different piston not firing until it seized up. I took out all the spark plugs, turned off the fuel pump and let the starter turn the motor and it seemed to be turning smoothly so I think we are good unless I ended up screwing up a seal or valve. I won't know if there is any damage until I get new injectors and try starting it again. I'm trying to find someone locally with a couple working used ones I can buy to test it. I really don't want to buy a whole new set only to find out my motor is jacked. Lets hope it fires right back up again considering it wasn't under any load and only running on two cylinders when it locked. I'm hoping under those conditions, there wasn't enough torque to cause any real damage. Worst case scenario and its blown in one way or another, I'll probably either build the motor for boost or swap in an SR20. Whatever makes the most sense with whatever is salvageable. Lets hope its not though, I want to do one of those things at a time of my choosing! |
