Im back! well sort of I got one more exam tomorrow but after that one i'll try to post more regularly.
So what has happened? Quite alot actually. Ive gotten a new alternator, starter and some new headgaskets fitted. I sent my carburetor away to get repaired. That is pretty much it enginewise. I did fiddle around with with the suspension and removed the old leaky shocks and worn out springs and replaced them with a set of really cheap crappy coilovers. Have no clue what brand probably some cheap ebay ones Atleast they aint seized xD And yes I finally got rid of the rusty steelies and ADV rims up front and bought a set of CST Hiper1Zero's from a good friend who was selling some of his wheels he used to have for his S13. They are 17 inches all around with some 25mm spacers in the rear and none up front. As soon as my paycheck rolls in a pair up front will be bought. I can go down with the coilovers quite abit but I think I will stop here. Or make small adjustments. It really goes down to how it feels and performs once its out on the track. Then I will play around with stiffness aswell. For now that will be it. The to do list is getting shorter and shorter as times goes! |

So I sold the Starlet, and bought an S13. I also sold all the cars I had back home. F355 went to "Valo's Museum of Speed", while the Impala went to the "Classics of Valo" museum. The Prelude was sold to the Speed museum too.
Now I have the S13 only. I'm on my way home. (Can anyone PLEASE explain to me why the hell Valo crashes even when the only car I have ingame is the S13? The map loads a little and then crashes) |

So on my way from my old home getting the last of my stuff my Supra starts acting up.
So I pull off into a hotel parking lot and as soon as I get out I got fluid all over the ground. well it so happens my Radiator hoses busted and one of them cracked my radiator itself So now I'm waiting on a tow truck to come pick me up along with my supra |

Good luck keeping that bumper in decent condition on the truck. Even a flatbed will scratch it... They generally need about 5 inches MINIMUM between the ground and the vehicle. Try asking the guy if he can take the bumper off so as not to scratch or damage it. As long as the screws aren't rusted or stuck, then it shouldn't be a problem.

Final ChapterSouth Valo, homeI'm finally back home after a tiring drive. I would visit Northern Valo, but it was too far away. With that, I'm back home to you guys.Back home. New car, new beginning. This S13 will stay stock. It will be my daily. I may give it a wide body kit. |

So I manage to get back and it wasn't a tow truck that came and got me it was a car trailer?
anyways they dropped me and my car back and as soon as I got back I popped the hood and from the looks of it the hoses took out more then the radiator it destroyed the transmission cooler and the oil cooler. |

That supra is dope, makes me wonder what ever happened to the one I sold way back.
Got some new pipes for the G to roar through. Went to the muffler shop and got a pair of custom 3inch piping from the cats, plus 2 generic mufflers with oxidized tips. I was gonna go straight back no muffler, but I am not sure if Valo has any law against that yet. anyone know? anyways, here are some pics before I left the shop Coilovers should be here soon. they emailed me and said they did not have the stiff enough springs, so I had to pay alittle extra and get H&R to get them from Swift |

# Driftphantom : That supra is dope, makes me wonder what ever happened to the one I sold way back. you should try getting your parts from Password JDM that's where some of my parts came from and thanks its my daily and I'm part of the Valo police department and there really is no laws I know that against it as long as you have your sensors.

So I manage to take my bumper off and remove the radiator, Oil Cooler and Transmission cooler
from the looks only thing that is reusable is the Oil Cooler, they just need hoses to be replaced So I'm going to the police departments personal garage and take parts of a Co-workers Supra who will be selling it very soon |

Thanks for the info Im thinking I may straight pipe in the future. And yes, Password JDM is an excellent place to order parts, but I needed custom spring rates that are only available direct through H&R. These are of 1-off production and made specifically for my G. H&R had to partner with Swift, the same guys who supply BC Racing with their super hard springs in order to give me the desired product. it cost alittle extra, but will be worth it when I am able to ride rim lol |

I was able to get some hoses for my oil cooler at the garage, however on my way I stopped by a local Race Shop (I don't know the name of it, but its in South Valo) and asked if they have parts
indeed they had a Greddy Transmission Cooler and a ARC radiator for my 2jz and I was able to install them when I got back This post was edited by Superstreetking95 (2015-05-20 03:53, ago) |

# Facepalm :That S13 looks almost exactly like mine; It's my daily, too (Didn't you say you had the cover & article from the last UTM issue ready? ) So after a few days of measuring, welding, grinding, swearing, hitting my head on the hanging engine while putting it into the car(fuck that hurts) it's in. The stock blacktop ITB system is also in place but I've modified it a bit. Now I'll hook up all the wiring, fuel lines, cooling system and the driveshaft which dxg completed today (thanks!). |

# Facepalm : I know I shouldn't tell another person what to do on their car, but I hope that you don't end up doing widebody. Stock body can look so nice, I wish my fenders didn't get cut on my S13. I'd trade you body's if I didn't have so much money and time into mine |

The s13 I own has been getting neglected with me getting my G so today is all about what has gone into it. First off, she has her roll cage in. She also got her new taillights in and working. Finally, Last week when I went to pull part last week, I found a pignose front bumper and a set of pop ups with bad motors. I have them set to lazy haha. here is her current state and some shots from MPI today. This is the first time this sr has seen any real action. and I was running it hard to blow off some steam from today
Small G update: I did get my coils in the mail today from H&R, install should be tomorrow, any suggestions for wheels? 18s or 19s |

# Facepalm : Love the idea of a magazine like that! Added 40 minutes later: First of: OMGahd is right foxbodies do have EFI. So from now my carburetor magicly turned in to an EFI system Now with that out of the way lets begin. Well not much has been done since last update. With limited time after work and limited funds updates are slow and im afraid they will be for a while. Not making excuses cuz shit is getting done! Like this for example - I got rid of the big obnoxious mufflers since they scraped with the car this low. That was the primary reason but everything but the mufflers was rusty as hell anyway so I picked up some 3" stainless pipes and made my own de-cat exhaust. Turned out pretty good I did some enginework aswell. Long story short I got it running.... well kind off. Its running on six cylinders. As soon as I get some free time I will check the sparkplugs for spark. Hopefully a set of new plugs will solve the problem. Atleast I got a rough idea of how it sounds with the new exhaust mounted up. I picked up a cheap used open airfilter aswell and instead of shortening the pipe from the filter to the intake I just removed the right headlight and ziptied it to the headlight mount Works really good and adds some character to the somewhat boring looking car. Looks haggard as fuck but whatever it works just fine! This post was edited by 2jzCookie (2015-05-21 20:55, ago) |
