Re: Wes' S14 "Leigh"

Oh those seats look fantastic! Great build man. I'd say the blow by should subside much more after your 500 mile breakin. Thanks buddy! That's what I've been told. I really hope that's how it works out. Anyone know if they can help me on step 3? I'm a little confused. https://www.diyautotune.com/su...

Re: Wes' S14 "Leigh"

Uhhhm maybe a hundred miles? Or under. I've asked around and got loads of different responses. Some say it's okay, some say it's really bad. Worst case scenario is I find the issue to be something that will require a rebuild. If that is the case I will move the turbo goodies on the oem rebuilt motor...

Re: Wes' Clean S14 "Leigh"

My red car bumper was taken off cause I kept clipping my front end at the drift events as well as it got caught on the trailer as I was unloading my car at one point. The white car bumper is off cause it needs to be cut to fit the intercooler, but I won't be doing that cause it's getting swapped soo...

Old picture host problems so pictures start on page 2. Howdy ya'll! This is my second build thread, as my first one was my Haggard Hatch a couple years ago.

I am just curious, why would you not just go with Megasquirt? It looks great so far. I love that MAF housing.

Re: Adam's formerly supercharged... now soon-to-be-turbo'd,

I think I know a good location to hide a GPS device, if you really did want to get one. The side panels of the rear seats have pretty big cavity behind them. Wires run right past this cavity that you could use for power or whatever (well on the passenger side). Yeah my biggest fear was having my car...

Pretty good build. Got any videos of your car running and driving? What made you want to use z32 rear uprights instead of keeping the s13 ones?

Re: Adam's formerly supercharged... now soon-to-be-turbo'd,

ITB set ups always intrigue me. A local enthusiast that had ITB on his S14, it was stolen about 6 months ago. It was really clean and we still haven't seen his parts pop up for sale.

Updates on your ride?

Your build looks like its coming along nicely. You sure you wanna run that clutch and flywheel? I have heard some horror stories about them. Not trying to be negative but instead hoping to save you headache down the road.

A seal can seep a small amount of fluid at a time.
