Whattya think? I like it. I've wanted a coupe for a while. I'm quite content.:supz: At the moment, has no exhaust on. Just a header. Let me tell you, that was the loudest ride home lol. 45 minutes of nothing but highway drone. I brought ear plugs LOL! Already have some 3" piping on the way. Gonna do a 2.5" header reducer, so the exhaust can be unbolted. Just gonna weld up a 2.5" to 3" reducer for the exhaust side of it. We'll see how this goes when it all gets here hahahaha

[Scapegoat]

old(even with the monster truck tires) > new

sorry

but as long as you're happy, it really doesn't matter

[240sxDann]

really? you like s14's better? I had an s13, then the s14, and I just never got into it really. I wanted to "upgrade" to an s14, and then realized I was much happier with the s13.

[Scapegoat]

not being a nissan fan myself...

yes, i like the s14 better. mainly from a styling stand point. the s13 is more mexican ricer to me... might be because I drive through norristown daily...

[jrdellecker21]

thats funny i saw your s14 at hersey park today

[240sxDann]

thats funny i saw your s14 at hersey park today

you sure it was that one??? There are a few I've seen around that look almost identical. I just traded this to the guy at like 9:45 this morning hahaha

[jrdellecker21]

100% sure it has a rust spot on the rear of the passenger side door

[240sxDann]

lol! yea I think its the only one around with that. Thats pretty funny lol

[Honduh]

I like it. Just needs a Silvia front end and loose the gay` wheels.

Isn't this car a ka-t? Is it another tst members car? I know I've seen it before, was the previous owner friends with the turbo probe dude or something?

[TROLL]

i like coupes a lot... i think with just a bit of love and finishing up, and a set of really nice wheels... you'd be in really good shape.

Was a 12 second KA-T car, yes. FazdaGt (guy with the turbo probe) his roomate. Since then, it is no longer KA-T, just KA lol.

for the time being, its being daily driven. I have some things in the works that may or may not happen. It really depends what I end up wanting to do with this car. I'm torn once again. This car + car payment on another car, or just save up and go balls to the walls on this one. Balls to said walls would be cheaper.

how well would this car do as a base for a good track/autocross car?

it looks like it might handle well with the appropriate upgrades... is it rwd? lol

really? your being serious? :lol:

[Scapegoat]

i don't know **** about old nissans (except they'll get you laid by jacki)...

or are you referring to the handling? :)

[OPZ]

Very clean, I love my hatch but I'm starting to like the looks of the coupes more and more.

I wish my paint was that shiny and one color...and my sleepy eye's didn't look dopey... :(

hahaha word. I think she might be upset with me because she was wanting this car lol. Well...these cars are basically used as the basis for many motor sports. Obviously drifting is a huge one, auto crossing is the next, and then drag racing/street racing is another big one. They can handle like animals, and with the right engine set up (whether its ka-t, sr20, rb, 2jz, etc etc etc) can make massive power and put it to the ground pretty well.

yea, I had an 89 hatch. Was my first "real" car so to speak. I loved that thing. I fell in love with coupes shortly after, and havn't found a decent one until now. (which is 3 years later lol)

[Kevin]

Is this one just as slow or...? lol

[240sxDann]

its a stock KA...you decide.

I saw the videos of your last car and it looked like it was towing something lol

lol....it wasn't THAT bad...compared to the mercury sable i was driving. <_< >_>

[SlideWayzS13]

I am pretty sure that S13 you just got used to be boosted?? I think I have video of it tearing it up at Maple Grove a year or two ago...correct me if I am wrong?

That is correct. Link to said video?

[240sxDann]

well...so far I've found out that the o2 sensor isn't hooked up to the header, but doesn't throw a light. Also has cut springs. And I'm having some issues with the clutch. (engages REALLY close to the floor. Just bled it...didn't do anything. The fluid is really murky looking, might flush the whole system)

[SpEcRv9]

true story. theyre everywhere in ntown.

you can adjust the clutch pedal. the rod coming out of the cylinder that connects to the pedal is threaded at the end.

[SlideWayzS13]

I dont know if the video is online I think I have it on a tape somewhere in my room.....My clutch engages right at the floor too, IMO better for driving and going threw the gears.

[240sxDann]

well I adjusted it, and now its much farther out. Its just kind of uncomfortable having it engage that close to the floor. It does really shorten how much you have to let the clutch out for it to fully grab though. Wonder how much of an affect that has on clutch life? It engages and disengages perfect when its that close to the floor.
