wigenOut-S30 Posted September 22, 2014 Author Share Posted September 22, 2014 Ok will do man.. The KA full trans swap will be up for sale in a few months probably. Today was a good day... After 2 years of sitting, I put her all back together and she cranked. Only let her run for about 2 minutes because of the old fuel.. I drained the tank and will put fresh fuel in tomorrow. I have a bunch of loose ends to tie up but it really does feel good to hear her purr. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

75280z Posted September 30, 2014 Share Posted September 30, 2014 Awesome! Love to see long dormant cars come back to life. I was there man. I had about a 5 year gap. Keep it up car still looks wicked! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wigenOut-S30 Posted October 3, 2014 Author Share Posted October 3, 2014 getting closer and closer, I had replace the drivers Toyota S12W caliper as it was dragging. I relocated the Wideband to the down pipe and ran the wires through the firewall. I also had some issues with my HID balist.. It ended up being a Relay issue. I had a problem with the replacement caliper. It would hit the rotor when bolted in.. I ended up having to order Shims from Mcmastercar.. I was able to get .5mm shims and that fixed teh spacing of the calipers. Pic showing after I bolted it up before spacing it out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just got a new job about a month ago and I've been getting the urg to get my z out and start working on her again. I actually started to wet sand my hood. Yes i painted my car what 7 years ago but better late than never. DId you ever get your lsd installed? I can make some spacers now if you still need them. I dont have them on mine but i have access to a lathe so i thought i would just for fun. Talk to you later man. Glad your back at it. Maybe someday we will be able to get together again. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alexx933 Posted October 12, 2014 Share Posted October 12, 2014 It was nice to meet you today! You have a great set up and I'm glad to see you decided to bring her out for the show. It sounded quite mean when you sped off. Made me jealous haha I see you might upgrade your trans here soon. I may be interested in your old set up.

Stock Car Mafia Posted May 5, 2016 Share Posted May 5, 2016 I've seen your car on so many google searches, I'm glad I finally found your thread! I don't mean to dig it up from the past but I just read your whole build. Man your car is one sweet machine! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wigenOut-S30 Posted July 26, 2016 Author Share Posted July 26, 2016 Thanks man! It has been down since Feb. I thought I had a HG issue but I think it is just a combination of water pump and I have a small leak in the radiator.. I should have the new radiator in a week and I should be back up and going here soon! I decided to stick with the S13 trans for now.. Maybe eventually I will be able to move up to the Z32 trans.

Stock Car Mafia Posted August 1, 2016 Share Posted August 1, 2016 This tends to happen! How many miles did you put on the unit and was it used when you bought it? Well, starting taking her apart and found that my turbo has in and out shaft play.. thrust bearing issues.. Soo now the turbo has to come off and sent off to be rebuilt.. uugh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wigenOut-S30 Posted August 1, 2016 Author Share Posted August 1, 2016 I bought it new back in 09.. I put a lot of hard miles on it.. I am going to send it back to the company I bought it from for a rebuild. I hope the compressor wheel is not chewed up too bad.. might have to replace it as well.

wigenOut-S30 Posted August 22, 2016 Author Share Posted August 22, 2016 Turbo should be back this week.. Also upgrading to 550CC injectors and Champion Radiator.. Will post pics up soon.. Also thinking about re routing the IC piping under the motor to the passenger side and then forward to the IC.. Pipes should be no longer then what I currently have but feel it will clean up the engine bay a good bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
