wht do u want to know...... and all i have left from mine is backsseats...prolly dosent get u much but its all i have

[rmeyer114]

well to get you started a litttle

89-94 = s13
95-98=s14
and in japan anything 98+ is an s15

and i see u mentioned the posi trac the 95-98's come with limited slip and is completley transferable

and post some pics man

[rmeyer114]

oh and your motor u have in it is probably the KA24E motor which is the single overhead cam version 91-98's have the KA24DE's in em witch are the dual overhead cams

sr20s are over rated and expensive and if u plan on doing a swap do the RB swap ;)

[jonathanjone]

coupe or hatchback? to get a free short shifter i can hook you up with a diy that takes like 5 min. all ka trannys are the same. theyve got alot of torque. i love 240s. what are his plans for it? turbo, swap, just a few bolt ons?

thanks alot man ill take pictures and post em up later we just did little stuff to it tonight..

[rmeyer114]

hey how do u do the short shifter on it ?

[jonathanjone]

first get a new shift knob with set screws b/c the shifter will not be threaded after you are through. take the original shifter out, put the bottom in a vice sideways --------- so it wont move. grab the fat part of the shifter with your hands if you can get a good grip on it, or use some kind of plier things, then twist it off, not sure which way it turns. but the fat part will come off and expose a rod. take that fat part and lay it to the side. take the other part out of the vice and put the new shift knob on it. there you have it. hope this helps.

my buddy did this the other day. came out great. perfect size. its a lil shorter than he wanted, but its taller than mine that i bought was which was good b/c mine was flush with my console lol, hurt my fingers to shift b/c i kept hitting the console lol.

[rmeyer114]

could u maybe get a pic of that? thx

[jonathanjone]

ill try to get up with my buddy and get the other shifter and do it again so i can take pix of the process. what exactly would you like pix of? the process or the product?

how many coils should i cut??

[rmeyer114]

clean 240 ..it got power steering? .....oh and by the way if u want the most ghetto ass ride of your life DONT CUT THE SPRINGS save money and buy real lowering springs

[jonathanjone]

im with rmeyer114. dont cut the springs. you can just buy some random springs from someone on here for cheap and put them on and be a better ride and just as easy. just my 2 cents tho

[Dracc]

like I SAID BEFORE it was temporary.. only 2 days.. bouncey as hell but funny.. I can't remember the right up but its some car that you can use stocc springs on a s13 and flip it up side down and it will lower it about 2 inches.. you can cut about 2-4 coils if you want...

[osiriskidd]

thats a clean s13. i'd like to own one one day xD

[You_Wish]

thanks alot guys...


yeah it has powersteering...

[rmeyer114]

damn wish mine had power steering shit sucks when ur in a parking lot ...also wanna be able to slide so i wanna get that

[Mista Foe-Doe]

dont get lowering spring cause when i had mine i had lowering springs and its was fine at the time but then i wanted to go lower i would suggest coilovers there pricey but well worth it cheapest ones are godspeed they run about 500 on ebay
