so some of you guys know my car.
it has a series one rb25det swapped in for the ka. it was put in by intese motor sports.
ive had shitty luck with the motor swap
rust in the whole motor the guys out at oni jdm spent alot of time working the car to get the rust out. and it came to the point where noting was working adn i brough it back to intese for them to fix it. so that was fixed.
the timming belt was on mad tight so oni jdm adjusted it for me alont wiht fixing my leaky oil pan that had the wrong gasket on.
the head had broken studs in it which caused my exhaust manifold to leak really bad so i had to have the whole head rebuilt since it was impossible to heli coil or fix the head so it was welded shut and re thread.
the turbo is still shit. the stock one that came from the block i dont remeber where intesen got it from but the turbo was beat right from the staart i was a newb and didnt know much about turbos so i thought it was good until other ppl showed me. so i replaced the old turbo that was spitting oil with a new rb25 turbo.
the car over heated like a bitch. heat soak. so i got a jdm hood hahah still no good. i went through over five diffent fan set ups to finally get it right.
the batter was also relocated to the trunk when the swap was done. and i dotn knwo how but last week the battery caught fire. it wasnt electiraly it was the way the battery was latched down it caught spark.
im pretty sure ive been running the wrong ecu all this tiem since the car feels reallly offf. so that leads to my shitty gas milage, having a idle that varies from 1000rpms to 2000 rpms.
the car randomly shuts off on its own. boost leak?
the car has always ran mad rich i dotn know why.
having tow bills for bring the car form toronto to barrie over three times that total over 500 dollars.
my electiral shit i the car stopped working fuses werea lways being poped.
So im pretty much fed up with the car and cant afford to bring the car to intese to keep getting it fixed. so i made up my mind to jstu finish the car off with a shop that does top notch work. Radek from RS Tuning is going to take care of my car.
Radek also know as orignal drift master is going to help me make my car run legit. hes already helped my out by making me a new hot pipe for my car so that i can get around since my car was broek into and they stole my piping i wasnt able to drive it.
No that all my parts are in.
gt35r
aem ems
740cc injectors
44mm waste gate
radek is goign to be going over my entire wiring that was done before to fix it up proper. and do all the mechanical work to make my car 110 percent. the car should be going in this week so ill keep you guys posted with the progress of the car.
i really cant wait because up until now i ahvent been able to fully enjoy my new motor swap. im sure radek will deliver as he says. we all know of his 350 whrp kat that he built.
so far radeks serviece has been outstandign he had come to my house to pick up my car when i was at work and fixed it while i was at work and brough it back when i was done running better then ever.
if anyone has any questions about work being done on my car feel free to pm me.
Sucks to hear that man, I had a lot of trouble with my old red S13 as well. Hopefully everything will be done right this time and you will be problem free. Good luck!
Yeah that sucks, I had so many problems with my car to, but it was usually because the shops I brought the car to were incompetent…so much better to do shit yourself. lol
well its not that intense did do a good job.its just it could of been done better with the amout of time they took. and they could of gotten me a better motor.
orgianlly i was going to do the swap my self i took the motor our and eveyrting ready to start then i quit my job and lost my work bay so yeah.
im really thankful for onijdm for sponsering me and taking me in. theyve really treated me like family and are great people to deal with.
thanks bro.
its mad hard to go to school pay for ur own car ur own insuarance and then ahve all this shit happen. and thats where rs tuning customer serice comes in.there very fair and understanding. cus they;ve been there themselves and knwo how hard it is to pay for shit liek this.
on my car yes. but they do have some nice cars that they’ve done like their s14.5 and their drift car. but they told me they did a rb swap before. and by the looks of it they didnt. but im not here to bash on intense. i jsut want to get my car fixed.
like i said im not here to bash on intesse if i was i would of made a thread for that. im jsut sharing with everyone on son with what im doing to my car and so that everyone can see the sick work that rs tuning is doing
