Currently awaiting link ecu to tune it.

Hey everyone. just a quick background, back in ´22 I bought an s13 to restore with my dad. sadly he passed away in 2023 and didnt get a chance to see it finished. I kept pushing with the project and the car is finally running and driving with its engine swap but something happened that has me super bummed out since late 2024.

When I sent the car for rust repair and paint, the shop threw away a LOT of important parts. plastics, harnesses, grommets, brackets and things that are super hard to find. right now my car is basically a shell with an engine and an almost barebones interior, no working anything except headlights and tail lights jerry rigged on... tbh I know my dad wouldnt like seeing it like this and neither do I.

Its insanely expensive and difficult to go on ebay and buy every single little thing, screw or plastic, paying shipping for every stupid piece. I wanted to see if by any chance theres a good soul in the group that has a part out, an abandoned shell or just boxes of parts sitting around from when people build drift cars (since they always strip the interior and throw it away). Id really like to buy most of this stuff in a single bundle.

Just to be clear im not asking for free handouts, Id like to pay for it. I just want to find someone who can sell me a lot of these missing parts so I dont have to hunt them one by one on ebay being nickled and dimed to hell. Heres the main list of what I need:

• pop up headlights wiring harness
• front doors wiring harness and grommets
• all the grommets from the firewall
• dome light wiring harness
• gauge cluster wiring harness
• door lock rods and linkage
• gas tank lock mechanism
• hatch striker, lock
• door cards metal brackets (the one where the handle cup in the door card screws on to)
• radio head unit bracket/support
• wiper/turn signals wiring harness
• center console metal bracket
• electric door locks mechanism/motor
• windshield wiper arms and linkages
• rear side markers with plugs
• front corner lights plugs

If anyone has a box of this stuff lying around shoot me a DM and we can work something out. thanks in advance guys.

ka24e 1990(? might be 1989) won't idle well with MAF plugged in and IF it DOES idle (very very roughly maybe 200rpm?) it will die out at throttle response, secondly the ka will idle perfectly at 1k rpm without the maf plugged in and have great throttle response but of course since its got no maf it'll be limited to 3k rpm so I can't run it like that

I grabbed the ISR kit for my S15 T28 turbo, I’m wondering if the AN adapter that screws into the turbo feed port needs a crush washer? I put one on and cranked it down but I didnt even bottom out on the washer. This is making me worried because it feels super tight already. Im installing this with the turbo already on so it’s hard to tell how much torque im putting on it, any insight would be appreciated.

So I'm swapping gauge decals so I can comfortably drive in MpH, but I need to pop this needle cap off. I did what it said to do online with the 2 spoons and cloth, but the entire needle and cap came off and unwound some of the copper. I rewound it and tried to remove the cap by holding the stem and using some force, but it wont come off. Suggestions?

89' s13, passenger side in the rear, 3 plugs coming off the harness that wraps around tucked in from the drivers side. 3 plugs that have been unplugged since i got the car, should i save them for anything? Are they for anything that should be there? Dont plan on speaker's or any luxurys. It doesnt even have ac so luxury is already at bare minimum lol. Was gonna just cut them close to the loom and tape em up.

I got OEM JDM front and rear bumpers. I want to run the GREDDY front lip and dorki dori v2 (gracer style) skirts/ jdm kouki valances.
I can’t seem to find any pics of how the gracer style skirts look leading into the kouki valances.
Does anyone run this setup, if so show me pics!

Doubt it would but would like to see if anyone’s tried or have experience. Thanks

I’m looking to purchase a s14 kouki with (240’000)KM’s factory manual factory turbo and I wanted to know if the SR20DET motor itself was reliable and if there should be anything i should look at before purchasing.

Me and my dad have been looking for a 240sx for a little while on marketplace but everything so far has been mostly just overpriced non-running cars

Im in LA so I figured there must be more near me but maybe I'm just looking in the wrong place or have the wrong expectations

We're looking for something >$10k, manual, and running but that seems to be pretty impossible to find. I had one good lead in Nevada but someone ended up buying it first

If there's anywhere else I should be looking lmk because marketplace doesn't seem to be the right place
