[wakotow]

wow, you really went to town on this thing it looks like. Good job!

[johnny_boy]

its ok, nothing compared to what you have,lol.

im dropping the z32 calipers and spacers and putting on some smaller calipers so my wheel dont stick out so far, my fender rubbed a hole in my driver side tire i just bought.


so you guys meeting on sat?

[wakotow]

I won't be there, becuase the drags at fallon are going tomorrow...so I'll be trying to break an axle or somethin'...

[johnny_boy]

one day u should take me for a ride in that beast. never rode in a rb before:D


switched out my z32 calipers for some black powder coated s14 calipers today(i think) and wired a temp switch relay oh..... and some ploy sway bar end link bushing :p no pic:( sorry i was in a rush today.

[wakotow]

sure you can go for a ride one of these meets

[johnny_boy]

thats whats up lol

[ZenkiTrev]

Hey John. I heard rumors that you have the means to powdercoat... any truth to that?

[johnny_boy]

ya but only small stuff unless you can get access to a bigger oven

[wakotow]

like a traction rod about 8" long?

[johnny_boy]

if it fits in a toaster oven lol ya


powder coatin is like paint its all in the prep work, all the paint and oil needs to be cleaned off. needs bare metal to stick good. i like to use airplane remover works great.

[wakotow]

sweetness.

Hey, here's where I learned about my holset.

[johnny_boy]

[mr peas]

Awesome build up, nicely done!

[ZenkiTrev]

[johnny_boy]

[ZenkiTrev]

Sweet. Are you coming out this Saturday? We can talk more there. Sorry to clutter up your build thread like this.

[johnny_boy]

[wakotow]

[johnny_boy]

i copy this from my other build thread, so just skip threw the s12 shit if you want


parts (5 lug)

hubs
rotor
brake bracket (see the difference below)
http://i283.photobucket.com/albums/kk282/calbear89/HPIM0913.jpg

left 300zx right 200sx - its for the larger rotor

http://i283.photobucket.com/albums/kk282/calbear89/HPIM0932.jpg

tools you'll need

floor jack and stands
breaker bar 1/2in
30mm socket
17mm socket & wrench
12mm socket & wrench
10mm line wrench
long flat head screw driver
impact if u have it(i have one but my air compressor isn't strong enough)
axle puller or hammer if ur ghetto like me lol

so there's two way two do it if u have the right tools(impact or no impact)

with a impact
1. jack the car up then place stands under car
2. remove wheels
3. remove brake caliper.
there's a brake line that has to be removed to do this and two 17mm bolts on the back side holding the caliper on. then on the bottom is a bracket for the e-brake cable it a 12mm and a 17mm. then it should come off
http://i283.photobucket.com/albums/kk282/calbear89/HPIM0914.jpg


4. remove the shock from the bottom mount with a 17mm

http://i283.photobucket.com/albums/kk282/calbear89/HPIM0916.jpg

5. remove 17mm bolt and nut. this will gain u access to the end of the cv axle, which has to be removed to get to the 30mm bolt
http://i283.photobucket.com/albums/kk282/calbear89/HPIM0919.jpg

6. now remove the 6 12mm bolts. this is tricky cuz the hub is going to spin freely apply the e brake. this only works once, because when u get to the other side the rear brake will be removed, so u can put the tire back on and lower it until it touches the ground. you'll only be able to do two at a time cuz u need to jack it back up and rotate the axle to remove all six bolts
http://i283.photobucket.com/albums/kk282/calbear89/HPIM0929.jpg

7. take ur inpact and hit the 30mm hub nut doing this it is best to have the wheel on and it on the ground.

8. with the tire removed use the puller to the hub or a hummer from the inside and beat the living crap out of it. its best to threaded the nut on a couple of times so you don't mess the threads up









no inpact lol aka more work

do steps 1 threw 5.

6. remove sway bar end 12mm

7. there's a inside brake (rubber to metal)line on the inside of the swing arm remove the rubber line from the metal or hard line. 10mm

8. remove spring

9. two bolt should be the last thing holding the swing arm on. remove the two 17mm.

10. now as u remove the swing arm, use the screw driver and pop the axle out
http://i283.photobucket.com/albums/kk282/calbear89/HPIM0928.jpg

11. place the swing arm in the wheel with the lugs studs in the hole, then remove the 6 axles bolts
http://i283.photobucket.com/albums/kk282/calbear89/HPIM0930.jpg




12. then take the swing arm some where they have a inpact

6. with the strut removed, there should be a bracket on the lower control arm (lca) remove the tie rod from it with a pickle fork and hammer.( or if your at the yard and u aren't using the tie rod, beat the hell out of it lol)

7. now place the pickle fork between the ball joint and the bracket, pound it in there nice and good. with the pickle fork in place hit the top of the ball joint should come off easy.

[johnny_boy]

coil-overs on stock s12 and z31 5 lug conv.(front only for now)



tools

grinder
welder


parts

coil-over springs qa1 $37.00 ea (summit) or what ever you choice

threaded sleeve
summit $50 each or buy a ebay coil over kit for a 240sx for $50

sw20 mr2 front strut insert $33 ebay ur better one if you choice

If you want, you can use
S13 upper pillow mount $89.00
http://i283.photobucket.com/albums/kk282/calbear89/s12/100_0944.jpg




you should start wit a bare strut tube.


1. grind the weld off the strut preach. hit it with a hammer until you see a hair line crack start. grind where is needed until u can get the preach off.


http://i283.photobucket.com/albums/kk282/calbear89/s12/100_0840.jpg


2. put in the insert to find out how much to cut off to shorten it. remember that u need the treaded part at the top. i eyeballed mine


3. put the inert back in to recheck. place the tube over the insert, spot weld it in place. DO NOT WELD THE WHOLE THING WITH THE INSERT IN THERE. take out the insert. then finish welding it
http://i283.photobucket.com/albums/kk282/calbear89/s12/100_0980.jpg


4.weld the treaded part on in the same way

http://i283.photobucket.com/albums/kk282/calbear89/s12/100_0980.jpg

5. you need to weld a 2in i.d something like a washer or short piece of tubing .5in long or shorter

6. slided the treaded sleeve over it with jam nut. place in the insert, screw in nut

7. with using the mr2 sw20 insert. you have to bore out the top mount center hole with a step up drill bit so the top shaft will fit.

8. there's a nut that holds the strut in place, you will have to grind it until it is round so the threaded sleeve can slide over it

9. Put it all together.
Should look like this

http://i283.photobucket.com/albums/kk282/calbear89/HPIM1069.jpg
http://i283.photobucket.com/albums/kk282/calbear89/HPIM1070.jpg
http://i283.photobucket.com/albums/kk282/calbear89/HPIM1071.jpg





for z31 5 lug. The Step are the same as above but…..
the tube on the strut is 2.25 outside diameter (o.d) so you need the
s12 strut tube cut about 6 to 8 in's off the s12 tube, you need the threaded
part at the top. The I.D on the threaded sleeve is 2in


My ride height
http://i283.photobucket.com/albums/kk282/calbear89/s12/HPIM1079-1.jpg









s13 conv.


coil over kit
you can buy the cheaper ebay kit for a 240s($40.00-50.00)which comes with the coil springs, sleeve, or
go threw summit and buy the sleeve and jam nut(50.00 ea) and then buy a spring of your choice

tools:
welder
grinder with flip disc & cut off disc
a cut off saw if you have it

first take the s13 strut and remove the strut components. then grind the lower spring seat at the weld with the flap disc until you can see a hair line crack and do this all the way around. then stomp on the seat until it comes off and it will look like this

http://i283.photobucket.com/albums/kk282/calbear89/s12/100_0977.jpg


then you have to cut the threaded part of the strut tube off with a the grinder & cut off disc, for the best cut use a cut off saw.to extent the tube, then get a 2in OD piece of exhaust tubing from a parts store. cut it to length and weld it to the strut tube. then weld the threaded part you cut off earlier on the end of the strut tube like this
http://i283.photobucket.com/albums/kk282/calbear89/s12/100_0978.jpg
http://i283.photobucket.com/albums/kk282/calbear89/s12/100_0980.jpg



now you need to slide the 2in id washer onto the tube then the threaded sleeve & mark with a sharpie where the washer needs to be. tack it up, test fit and weld it.
http://i283.photobucket.com/albums/kk282/calbear89/s12/100_0981.jpg

[johnny_boy]

tune
stickers
wing

body kit
tint
subwoofer

[ZenkiTrev]

... or try advancing your timing a bit. If you do alcohol/water injection (which can be done for cheap) you can advance timing quite a bit more and get some extra power.

[johnny_boy]

what about neon lights? i heard its 10hp to the wheels!!! lol

[Kurai Shimo]

for the record, this car is one of the only reasons i find s12's acceptable.

[johnny_boy]

now i need to figure out how to hook it up to 120v. any advice?

[wakotow]

does it not have a plug? just go to home depot and get a plug end...should be cheap

[johnny_boy]

the oven it self is 240v

[ZenkiTrev]

I imagine something like these (http://www.220converters.com/Step-Up-Down-Voltage-Converters.htm) would do the trick.
