makibaka Posted July 4, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 4, 2007 Dude very nice noticed two ecus there any issues? Yup, first ECU wouldn't let it start yesterday afternoon. Got another one, and she runs strong now. :) Quote Link to comment
makibaka Posted July 4, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 4, 2007 Here's a little something I stumbled upon loading some pics to photobucket today. This truck is from Japan, just a little incentive!;) :eek: Good find! Looks like a NA/SR20DE? Filter seems to be on the intake manifold side. Man, those crazy Japanese! :eek: Quote Link to comment

69FJWagon Posted July 5, 2007 Report Share Posted July 5, 2007 Hey Joma wanted to come see that seat give me a call so we can set something up... oh and by the way I had to stop by DGR yesterday and take a look and WOW looks...and sounds AWESOME !!! :D:D hope to talk to you soon Clayton Quote Link to comment
makibaka Posted July 5, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 5, 2007 It's home! :D:D:D:D:D:D:D Man, I really can't describe how quick this thing feels. All I know is that I couldn't stop smiling coupled with random outburts of hysterical laughter all day. Now more than ever do I need to put on those disc brakes :D Here's a video of the first day it started up: Pics on the day I took the beast home yesterday: More of Dan's welding magic Headlights put in. No more high beams because the intercooler interferred with the buckets. But it's just a reason to mount the BOV on the side of the intercooler in one bucket and run a HKS mushroom intake up to the other bucket :) Sitting outside DGR waiting to put on the exhaust manifold heatshield then it's ready for the drive home... I can't say this enough: THANK YOU DAN AND DANIEL FOR MAKING THIS HAPPEN!!!!!!!!!!!!! Still got to wire up some gauges, pop on Brandon's disc brake conversion, figure out how I want the shifter to sit, and get some new seats/smaller steering wheel to fit my 6' self. Then its off to the muffler shop and the dyno next week to check a/f and other good stuff... I love this truck. Quote Link to comment

makibaka Posted July 6, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 6, 2007 Whats up here.. looks like New Welds.. did you cut this crossmember down?? The crossmember was originally cut when Dan was first mocking it up. Here's a better shot from page 1: Also, thats 3 inch downpipe right.. is it squished down eliptical at that last joint?? Yup, Dan pounded on it with a hammer to form the 3" pipe into an oval to clear the crossmember so there would still be good ground clearance. Quote Link to comment
tangent Posted July 6, 2007 Report Share Posted July 6, 2007 ok cool.. Loved the video.. sounds mean.. Quote Link to comment
Icehouse Posted July 6, 2007 Report Share Posted July 6, 2007 I also enjoyed the vid :D I like the under hood sticker to!! Quote Link to comment
BEEBANI Posted July 6, 2007 Report Share Posted July 6, 2007 That's about how mine sounds. Love it! Quote Link to comment
lynchfourtwenty Posted July 6, 2007 Report Share Posted July 6, 2007 yours is ka is it not beebani?? is it turbo? ?? Quote Link to comment
BEEBANI Posted July 6, 2007 Report Share Posted July 6, 2007 yours is ka is it not beebani?? is it turbo? ?? Yeah its a ka, n/a, but with the header, intake, and 3ft. exhaust it sounds mean like that one does. I think I'm gonna take it to the exhaust shop and have the pipe run all the way out the back; I can't take that loudness all the time! Plus Johnny Law will come down on me for it.

lynchfourtwenty Posted July 6, 2007 Report Share Posted July 6, 2007 yea, i know all about the loudness.. remember at canby my muffler and most the pipe was in the bed of the truck :P so if u lengthin the pipe will it make it quieter or what? or are you going to put a muffler on too?? i got a turbo muffler an im likin it.. not too loud but still really good low pitch sound.. not all honduh wingy dingy pop coffe can soundin Quote Link to comment
BEEBANI Posted July 6, 2007 Report Share Posted July 6, 2007 I have a flowmaster on it now, but it's still too loud for the neighbors. Quote Link to comment
lynchfourtwenty Posted July 7, 2007 Report Share Posted July 7, 2007 ya my flowmaster was thrashed so i just replaced it with a nice lil turbo muffler.. almost same sound.. but sounds nicer now so i've been told anyway Quote Link to comment
Icehouse Posted July 9, 2007 Report Share Posted July 9, 2007 IS that an s13? Yep The Valve cover gives it away. Quote Link to comment
makibaka Posted July 17, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 17, 2007 IS that an s13? Yup, S13 redtop (the valve cover was swapped for a black one). Quote Link to comment
makibaka Posted July 17, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 17, 2007 UPDATE Been busy ever since I got the truck back. new window regulators and door felt. Sooooooo much better to drive without the windows banging around! Old window regulator was missing the spring. No wonder it was hard to roll up and down! new hood cable. No more sliced fingers!:) Tailight fun. Had to replace the reverse lens as it had a crack/big hole in it. Also had to splice in some bulb sockets as a couple of mine were corroded.
