Sentra SE-R

[Brettt]

Okay! All of the comments have been really helpful. We're actually starting the tear down process THIS weekend. After that's done with, we start on the cage.
-Do any of you B13 guys have any picture of the cage in your cars so we can get some ideas?

-For suspension, I was thinking of going with ksport coilover-type shocks with 448# front/ 336# rear. Do those sound like pretty good rates for a starting point?

A lot of other stuff will fall into place later, but we basically are trying to get this all in to make it legal so I can get my license this season. As always, comments/ideas are much appreciated!

-Thanks

From what I have heard and read, run as far away as possible from those. They are not going to last. You would be better off with koni's, kyb's, tokico whatever you can get with some gc conversions.

At the risk of sounding non-humble - but trust me, it's purely because I'm lazy - feel free to spend some time at the below link(s). There's a lot of rollcage pics in there somewhere...

Very basic design I started with:



Sorry, I don't know anything about KSports. I'm running cheap Koni inserts and cheap Road Magnets.

For what it is worth, I have heard nothing but bad stuff about the Ksports/D2 coil overs. They run super high rebound rates and and compresssion rates feel like water. Also the older models tend to blow and gettign them fixed under there warantee was easier said than done, but this is all hearsay. I looked into them as an option for the MK1 MR2 chasis. Since I can't seem to find an off the shelf racing only shock for the car.

How would you guys rank the Progress(Mike Kojima) Competition Coilovers for the B13?

Thanks,

I had the anual tech done for my car and I was told I need a fuel test port.... Well not sure where to put it or what it would look like. If anyone has a pic of where they put it on the se-r please post.

Paul Morrison sold them, but the www.fuelports.com site is down. But this one works: http://www.angelfire.com/oh5/sccafuelports/page2.html
I believe I paid less than $30. Plumb it in-line in the engine bay just after/above the fuel filter. Easy install and access point. Safety wire it up real nice so the hoses do not pull off.

$30... I'll be able to pass this by my accountant (aka wife) with no problem.

Steve did you use the 5/16 (8mm) serrated t connector?
