S14 200sx Build Thread

Hey Guys

This car was brought me by Qwert to restore and get some work done on her after standing for 4-5 years.. Arrived on a flatbed, definetly had 5 years worth of dust on her 😁

I had to a service
So fresh oils and fluids all round, new water pump, new radiator, and some other goods. The perfect power xms 3 failed and the fuel tank needs to be looked at, not taking fluid..

But I ended up purchasing her from Qwerty shortly after 🙂

She is currently at home in pieces 😁

Last night was pretty cold in the garage.... But got some work done.

New coils fit nice and snug on the notch top too 😁

Praying I get my Shinobi system tomorrow as I am on leave from wed-mon so would like to get as much done as possible...

Which coil packs are those and do they plug into the standard s14 harness?

These are VW/Audi 1.8T Coilpacks, they require a positive signal to trigger and new wiring harness to be made... Will not work on the OEM ecu 😉

Updates 😁

So water-meth relocation is done, and OEM washer bottle tapped and fitting installed.. Still need to source a check valve.. This will be controlled by the shinobi 🙂

Redid the fuel lines... Flex fuel sensor should be arriving in the week then that's all done. Also need to source a few more hose finishing fittings..
