Lonestar Posted June 8, 2017 Report Share Posted June 8, 2017 Looking good, did you figure out what you needed to make the chamber plates work? 1 Quote Link to comment
TSKB310 Posted June 8, 2017 Author Report Share Posted June 8, 2017 Looking good, did you figure out what you needed to make the chamber plates work? Yeah, different chamber plates. The set I have I got from a friend that ran on a wagon but what I failed to ask was what his setup was and after calling him, found out he had a full s13 front-end (like what you want)... Long story short, the HKS chamber plates won't bolt up properly to the shock SO I need to get a new set. 1 Quote Link to comment
TSKB310 Posted June 13, 2017 Author Report Share Posted June 13, 2017 So this engine was supposed to be a drop in a go deal while I build my A15... Well, it's been anything but that. The carb (I can only guess) sat so long it turned to shit and parts of the electronics I've found to have been cut. Oh well, what can ya do... So I've pulled everything off (AC unit is gone too, just still there in the pic).. I'm in the process of fabricating an intake manifold for the quad mikuni and a set of extractors to hopefully get this thing on the road asap. Also still need to pull the rear-end out of the sedan to drop into the coupe... Quote Link to comment

I didn't cut anything when I pulled it tho that could have explained the slight dieseling it'd do when I shut it off. The only wiring I messed with was that one yellow spark plug wire I had to make after I pulled one of the old one's apart doing a tune up. I do hope things starting working better for ya tho. 1 Quote Link to comment
TSKB310 Posted June 19, 2017 Author Report Share Posted June 19, 2017 So, tiny update... I can't find a shop around here to make a simple intake manifold to run my quad carbs SO!!!! I'm going to make that shit myself. 1 Quote Link to comment
afracer Posted July 2, 2017 Report Share Posted July 2, 2017 nope I may be interested in some of it this fall so please don't throw any of it out!! Quote Link to comment
TSKB310 Posted July 9, 2017 Author Report Share Posted July 9, 2017 I may be interested in some of it this fall so please don't throw any of it out!! Guess I'll keep it in the shop then. Quote Link to comment
TSKB310 Posted July 9, 2017 Author Report Share Posted July 9, 2017 Update.... My son ended up coming down with something and I haven't gotten anything done. That being over, I should be able to get some things done now. Quote Link to comment

JDOM310 Posted September 15, 2017 Report Share Posted September 15, 2017 Hey found this thread again you guys have any updates recent Quote Link to comment
TSKB310 Posted September 25, 2017 Author Report Share Posted September 25, 2017 Updates are, I got annoyed all my pictures had been removed and didn't really feel like dealing with posting up pictures from some other annoying site... I know, excuses as always. I'm in the process of finishing the intake manifold that no shop around here would touch, the rear end is in and once the manifolds are on, it'll be time to chunk more time and money then wanted into the body... Pictures will come when I can get around to it... Also, frontier (my internet company) is screwing me over and I haven't had the net for a good week or two so not much I can do on the forums. I'll try to get something up soon. Quote Link to comment
TSKB310 Posted October 1, 2017 Author Report Share Posted October 1, 2017 Maybe a little too early to post this up but whatever... Talked with John and the A14 is history... poor coupe is getting its guts pulled out again this time they're being replaced with an L18. Not exactly what I had in mind with keeping it as true to the style as possible but hunting what I want for the A series is going to be next to impossible or just too damn expensive to even bother with. Next time I post anything, will probably be next weekend WITH PICTURES... At least it's not an SR swap... 1 Quote Link to comment
flatcat19 Posted October 1, 2017 Report Share Posted October 1, 2017 L18 is what my original plans were when I had the car. I'm stoked you chose this. Quote Link to comment

TSKB310 Posted October 7, 2017 Author Report Share Posted October 7, 2017 Because some of you are so damn impatient, I don't even have time to get anything out of the tow-pig, you'll just have to deal with this. Going to be awhile before I can get it dropped in (need a clutch and all that other jazz) but you'll get the idea... although I will get the crossmember in, everything else will have to wait a little. BTW, John, we left your starter in the truck. 1 Quote Link to comment
datsunfreak Posted October 7, 2017 Report Share Posted October 7, 2017 Apparently I need to find you a lower water neck too... ^_^ Quote Link to comment
TSKB310 Posted October 8, 2017 Author Report Share Posted October 8, 2017 And a fuel pump if ya have one, lol Quote Link to comment
datsunfreak Posted October 8, 2017 Report Share Posted October 8, 2017 And a fuel pump if ya have one, lol Electric is your friend, but I probably have a few... Quote Link to comment
flatcat19 Posted October 8, 2017 Report Share Posted October 8, 2017 If John can't get either of those, I have one of each extra... condition questionable; spare parts just given to me. Can't wait to see this bitch rolling!!! Quote Link to comment
TSKB310 Posted October 8, 2017 Author Report Share Posted October 8, 2017 Electric is your friend, but I probably have a few... I was already thinking about that, just seen the block-off plate and it'll be one less thing in the front... Not that it'll really effect balance but I can always say it does. If John can't get either of those, I have one of each extra... condition questionable; spare parts just given to me. Can't wait to see this bitch rolling!!! I still have that steering wheel you want and it's just taking up space so I think we can make something work. 1 Quote Link to comment
flatcat19 Posted October 9, 2017 Report Share Posted October 9, 2017 Water outlet and a mechanical pump. I'll dig through my stuff today. Quote Link to comment
