David Bthe gray hatch is my daily but thats a welded diff too haha
Oh. Nice. how does it drive like that? do you notice it a lot on normal roads or just tight radius turns?
Apr 8, 2009, 4:15 am · #553
nvm
Apr 12, 2009, 2:36 am · #554
UPDATE
okay. i was completly wrong, the clicking noise i thought my springs were making was actually my driveshaft bolts almost off the thread,
phew. i locktighted them and shit.. i musta forgot while i welded the diff. i remember putting them on just not super tight
i used 2 locking washers i had lyiing around also
SO,
(http://i84.photobucket.com/albums/k20/gamefreak291/100_2819.jpg)
redid the exuast to work with the lower axle now
(http://i84.photobucket.com/albums/k20/gamefreak291/100_2820.jpg)
besides everyone saying its not going to work, the setup is working out great. is super cool. worth 50 bux
going to get more s13 front end suspension tomorrow
but for this first drift event, im just going to use those other front springs, on my stock struts, even with blown shocks up front it must be better then my stock ones
Apr 12, 2009, 7:42 am · #555

Nice Xano, well I didn't know it was your bday, but I got waaaaaaaaaaaaasted last night.. err actually It was this morning... At least now i know it was for a good cause, lol.
Apr 13, 2009, 3:12 am · #569
i love west va
k today just added the stiffer springs to the front, we decided to put a 1.5 inch spacer, i shoulda left that out IMO, because i could go lower, but i had to guess, to add these springs we basically had to take everything apart screw s12 suspension!
regardless its much stiffer, now its stiff all around, minus the stock s12 frotn shocks shocks arent so cool... the rear camaro ones are awesome though but will get me through next event until i get 2 coilovers, ill do my whole s13 front conversion with my new q45 brakes

it feels so forbidden to keep the engine that looms in my garage
(http://i84.photobucket.com/albums/k20/gamefreak291/100_2916.jpg)
it getting stripped down now to see what actually is broken
if it is not too much money to fix, i think i might have to put this this back together and throw it in>?
i realize i could do aliot with some sr power haha... and i mean come on.. its already in my garage

Rebuild the SR, put it in and sell me the KA.
Apr 20, 2009, 5:27 pm · #576
the KA runs like shit, or has some sort of timing chain noise, or something. but seems fine when im putting full throttle on it
it wouldnt be worth selling
*it was a cheap engine off a friend, but i did put alot of unneeded time and money into some thing like some gaskets, rear main seal, the alt, starter and missing pieces. but hell it feels alot more power then the ca20
id rather rebuild the ka with turbo power after the sr is, for the other s12

Ok. NVM. Haha. I wonder what's wrong with the SR. I mean, if you have it, may as well tear it down and see what the problem is and then go from there.
SR power would be amazing.
Apr 20, 2009, 5:32 pm · #578
David Bwell to keep it, id have to pay my friend the other half of what we split it, which is 150 bux, then id need to find parets, like manifolds, turbo, ic piping, etc.
the old owner ran it out of oil somehow... a dumbass, the engine was just rebuilt, so alot of gaskets should be top shape
Hmm. If you pay the other 150 and tear it down and it's something small, you have a good deal on an SR.
How does someone run a car with no oil? I check my oil like every week, even in my yaris that only has 20k miles on it.
Apr 20, 2009, 5:56 pm · #579
he drove it from the place and told him the oil pan was leaking where they tapped it, so he needs to get itfixed. but he drove like that for about a few weeks without looking

Apr 20, 2009, 8:20 pm · #581
i bet your ka is making lifter noise. to check, take off the valve cover and try moving the lifters individualy, up and down. my exhaust side kept giving me problems. they are filled with oil and sometimes the oil drains out and they get play and make a tapping sound mainly from idle to 3000rpm. around 3000rpm they bleed themselves, but with no oil in them they wont bleed correctly.
Apr 20, 2009, 10:05 pm · #582
it sounded the exact same as your red s12 when you drove it out the street on some video
Apr 21, 2009, 2:10 am · #583
okay start of tearing down the sohc ka for replacing whats broken and getting it back on the road
its a special ka24...

I used to go visit my aunt in Cali every summer. She lived a little bit east of Sacre-demento. There were so many abandoned roads, parking lots, airstrips, etc out there.
I want to go back now with a car.
