Asking for Advice
Hey all,
I got an S14 a while ago and am looking to do some restoration to it. It is painted a custom colour, so a bodykit would be a pain to get my hands on. I've got the original painter painting a set of sideskirts and a kouki wing for it, but what should I do about my rear end? The rear looks like it needs a skirt or something, but I have no clue what to do?
Any advice/recommendations?
Additionally, I am aware my wheels are ass and the suspension needs a change lol. I'm deciding between either Motegi Tsubakis or Kansei Tandems, but does anyone know how well 18x8.5" w/ 35mm offset would perform? I don't want any wheel rub, so any tire recommendations are welcome! Tanems come in 17" but the Motegis only come in 18".

Hello everyone,
I’m thrilled to unveil my passion project, Velocity Awakening. This isn’t just another car game; it’s a celebration of car culture, designed specifically for enthusiasts who appreciate the thrill of the ride. Picture a world where you can collect and customize everything from everyday vehicles to legendary muscle cars, classic beauties, and JDM icons, all within a dynamic environment featuring realistic weather and diverse terrains.

Here’s the key point: I’m not here to cash in on a business venture or line my pockets. This project is rooted in community spirit—no corporate greed, no pay-to-win nonsense. I’m genuinely dedicated to creating a vibrant, engaging game for car lovers who want to come together and enjoy an authentic experience.
I’m looking for passionate volunteers to join me in crafting this unique experience. If you’re enthusiastic about game development and share my vision of building a game that truly resonates with the vehicle community, I want to hear from you.

Diff slop
Just installed today. Guy said he thought it was a shimmed vlsd out of a JDM 180sx. It definitely locks on turns like a welded diff. It clunks from time to time on turns. Could this slop be producing that noise?

Does anyone know the length and thread pitch of the bolt for the speed sensor? Couldn’t find anything online.

Looking for a 1992 240sx distributor
I've been looking all over for a 1992 240sx distributor and I can't find anything and it's driving me crazy. Can I use a 94 - 98? I have a ka24de and I keep finding distributors only for the ka24e.

SR20DET Ticking at idle? Going to look at 180sx what could this be?
https://reddit.com/link/1ggyzer/video/oen9eb3xd8yd1/player
Im going to look at a '92 180sx, this is taken from the listing, it ticks at idle and has been for a couple years. Seller says he bled lifters years ago (didnt fix issue) and continued to drive it since.
Just throwing out a guess could this be the rocker arms (i saw a guy on youtube who had this issue and he said replacing the rocker arms fixed it)? If they were bad it would make a ticking like this correct?

Any ideas?
Fairly new to working on these cars, the dash was unplugged when I got it. The car is on an apexi stand alone and swapped to a SR20DET. I am trying to just get fuel working and maybe speed.

Sr20det Blacktop Ticking noise
Anyone know what would cause this ticking noise? Sounds like it may be coming from the head. The SR was pulled from a running car with no issues, the only thing I changed was the alternator. The car was sitting for 6 months when I deployed. TIA

I need a bit of help
This poor girl has been sitting there for about 10 years, needs a lot of work and it's basically just a rolling chassis, no engine, pretty much no internals. Is there any sites where I can get parts for her?

Cluster lights don't work
I have the oem digital cluster and HUD (neither work)
I have tried changing the TCM, and tested the running lights switch for good contact and both did not fix my issue. All my lights work including brake lights, climate lights and the little red warning lights like door open and seatbelt off.
The dimmer switch works for dimming the climate control lights so I'm unsure if that's my issue. The cluster lights (not the digital speedo) came on one day and when I tried messing with the dimmer they flickered back off and haven't turned on since.
