Re: 95 240sx Daily/Drift car build *update*

a little over 9000 miles later the car is still kicking it, it has its hiccups. Installed another rack to realize the factory cooler line was kinked from the oil pan and ended up running a super cheap 40 dollar cooler and all seems pretty well.

Re: 95 240sx Daily/Drift car build *update*

Took the car for its first ride on Thursday night before work, it sounded and drove healthy but it had some serious boost and vacume leaks. Last night while doing a boost leak down test, I discovered a plug that was leaking, the bov flange was leaking, had a serious leak by the throttle body and the ...

Re: 95 240sx Daily/Drift car build *update*

It was sopose to be done a few days ago but been hitting a few bumps down the road, and working them out one by one. The maf i was using from my friends Sr20 was the same year but different design so it didn't work. As of now the car starts but struggles to hold an idle. :bangshead:

UPDATE:

Cleaned and check the bottom of my head to see if it was still within spec, aswell as the deck of the motor. All was well, so me and my friend started slapping parts on.

Cleaned the block with a straight blade and scuff pad

Re: 95 240sx Daily/Drift car build *update*

A bit of an update, pretty much changed directions with my build. Sold off pretty much everything i couldn't use on my next setup. I bought two sr20det's off my friends. One motor is super low mileage runs, the other had a spun bearing but a fresh top end with Tomei cams and internalls.

Yea old tensions rods were destroyed. Every time i would apply the brakes at highway speeds to slow down the wheel would shake uncontrollably. Thought it was the lower control arm bushings, but when i removed the LCA to install new balljoints the bushings where just fine. Noticed the tensions rods ...
