I found the misfire! Car runs good now kinda slow though. I got 170psi in cylinders 1,2, and 4 but cyl 3 is 125psi im thinking it might of been a fluke cause now the car runs great. Well Ill let pictures explain.
Fucked up spark plug wires.
Cracked vaccum line to valve cover.
Pulled the valve cover to remove timing chain guide but it was already gone
Put the black valve cover on
One of the compression tests. Others I found unneccesary
Everything good to go

LOL I am glad one of you kids is starting to listen to me and check the small things first. That valve train is ugly as fuck tho... it looks like whoever had it before you liked to run the oil too long before changing it.

Yup I like not going through more trouble then I have too when fixing my shit lol. Indeed it looks like they liked to wait awhile but the oil in the motor is fresh along with the diff and all other fluids seem fresh... I have no idea oh well though haha. Eventually a SR will go in anyways. I also changed the stud I couldn't get the hub off so I used a 4lb hammer and knocked the stud out and hit a new one in hahaha

Well the car came with just an se wing. I didn't touch the holes in the trunk until I tried to put my kouki wing on. And the bolts coming off kouki wing just slid into the holes already there for the se wing. I had to drill holes in my other trunk lid, but it had a se wing too. Does that make better sense? Im confused at why the wing just went right on.

Maybe the trunk lid came from a Kouki 240sx in which case it may have had extra holes for the SE wing or the larger Kouki wing. Who knows since your car had many parts from other cars on it when you bought it.

I told you sliding an Automatic is totally different, it will teach you so much more.

Oh hell yea. The understeer when I first initiate is so weird. Its like understeer.............. OVERSTEER. Just catching that is prolly the hardest thing for me and keeping the car sliding when turning around to manji the other way haha. Definatly wanna get some more practice in the auto for sure.

So last night I went out with Andrew. Started sliding. Then the auto had its first victim. The tire completely delaminated. Along with that my spare pinched some wires and popped my stop lamp and tail lamp fuses But I stole a fuse from the horn and had one spare 10 amp fuse.

That's a nice tool huh? Worked great for doing my diff. My ABS is hanging too until I can source up the non ABS shit to remove everything. Think we're gonna start calling you S14 Doug.

So haven't updated the thread in awhile with whats goin on with the car So in a couple pics ill explain.
So I painted my kouki wing gloss black an put it on and threw on my 3inch exhaust.
Bought Brandons old greddy headers he had on his 1st caged hatch lol
Rockin one of john's stickers i messed up the other one DOH
I changed the oil to something thicker since the motor likes to make some noise when it gets slid and it was due in for a oil change
Also I got mustang wheels there 17x8 +30 I got s drives on the front an some pirellis on the back front tires are 215/40/17 so its a lil stretch and rears are 225/45/17
