My new "drift ready" S13 project.

[The 12oach]

Why are KA's so shit? I want one. I am loving it bodywise still am a major fan of Onevia's

But are RB20's that crap or is it just that every S13 they get spooned in makes them go superbad?

[Eurohb]

what did u do with those dope ass wheels i saw on ur e30 when i use to roll to DDM !?! and nice upgrade, hope u have fun with it dude.

[hypercrush]

sweet! i just got a red pignose coupe myself, so i will be watching this for inspiration. and probably asking dumb questions too.

[E30LIFE]

trust me this thing sounds wicked.
stoked to see some new wheels go on!

[LewyS14a]

This sounds like my s13... wait that sounds like every s13!

And my S14

Car looks nice, RB20 over SR seems a little strange id prefare the lighter motor in mine unless i wass going RB25 or above but i guess its different. Straight six through a Nur spec sounds sexual though

It came with a RB20 on a 11psi Top Secret tune. Not the most popular swap for these cars but it'll get the job done. That and it sounds exactly like a R32 Skyline.

lol. sorry i kinda had to laugh at this. Kinda like saying a miata with a 5L swapped in sounds like a 5L mustang

Not shit talking. I just really had a nice chuckle. Hows the car rust wise?

[ShipsS13]

Rb20's r underated. I'd trade my sr for 1. But anyways keep updates I'd like to see where u go
with this

[PHAS3D]

Yeah, I traded the car with some 17 yr old kid in Norcal. He put it together himself. There's a lot of half assed work that went into it. I've been sorting it out for about a month now but every time I fix something 2 more things break. My current issue I'm trying to overcome is its intermittent misfire issue under full boost. As soon as I can get it running strong wheels and paint are coming.

I went into this project knowing that I traded my E30 for basically a swap. I probably wouldn't have traded but since I have that E30 with the SR20 also I found no use for the 318.


For now, thank god my BMW is reliable.

This sounds like my s13... wait that sounds like every s13!

[Chris.A]

Nice 240 I like how it sits right now body wise. Looking forward to seeing what you do to it. What are your paint and wheel plans?

[StancedRolla]

rb20's most likely misfired from factory, I have never heard of anyone who has had one that hasnt had a miss

[driftsucky]

lotta dope going on in there. gl w/motor issues. can't wait to see it up and runnin

[lysdexia]

My current issue I'm trying to overcome is its intermittent misfire issue under full boost.

gap the plugs down to .7mm. if that doesnt fix it, swap the coilpacks out for some new ones.

very common on these engines. i've owned 3 and worked on many others, have done about 5 rb20 conversions into various cars, mostly r31s

[balleur]

Lookin good bruda! Can't wait to see the progress!

[tmoney]

RB20 is a pretty good motor.

ok this is probably dumb, but have you gapped the plugs right/changed them? I doubt thats your problem, but we had that problem in an evo9 one time, but he was 30psi on a gt35r sooooo idk if a smaller turbo will do that, the boost would actually blow the spark out or some shit. ignition couldnt keep up.

otherwise, post more shots!

nice onevia!
