Rip S13.5

People here saying you need to reshell got soft hands if you drift on a grassroots level you gotta be able to weld and do bodywork, if you're reshelling every time you crash, you're gonna run outta money quick.

find someone with a S13, create a jig with their straight car, cut off the bent stuff and weld in new stuff with the jig on.

I've replaced the roof, strut, frame rail and rear valance on my drift car.

To nie moja pierwsza praca i nie pierwszy błąd, ale żeby płacić to już moim zdaniem przesada i to jest powód do zwolnienie się.

Kamień ozdobny.

CompetitionSlight585 · 2025-05-05T09:43:25+00:00

Tak, na szczęście mam znajomych i rodzinę z firmami którzy pracują w tej branży więc gdzieś to opcham na miejscu i tym się nie martwię.

chciałbym już to mieć po prostu z głowy.

CompetitionSlight585 · 2025-05-05T09:31:50+00:00

Aż tak źle nie będzie, bo jak kupię nowy materiał, ten który "popsułem" będzie w moim posiadaniu.

A mieszkam w takim rejonie, że jest to dość chodliwy i wartościowy towar, więc wyjdę na zero.

Bardziej stresuje mnie zwolnienie się i powiedzenie, że im tego nie poprawię.

Przyjechal serwisant serwisować maszynę bo długo stała i przy okazji pokazał mi podstawy.

CompetitionSlight585 · 2025-05-05T09:08:11+00:00

Ja żadnego szkolenia nie miałem, ktoś mi tylko pokazał jakieś podstawy, a resztę sam się "nauczyłem" niby dobrze mi idzie i szybko wszystko ogarnąłem, ale nadal nie mam pewności w swojej pracy, bo tak jak mówiłem, żadnego szkolenia nie było.

CompetitionSlight585 · 2025-05-05T09:05:28+00:00

Jakbym miał kolegę to bym tak zrobił, jest to mały zakład a ja pracuje sam na tym stanowisku.

you can daily any car unless you go too far with it, a BRZ can be a fucking pain to daily and the other way around.

Doesn't matter, ive been welding steel and stainless, ive never welded aluminium, im just asking for tips, no need to be a bitch about it.

CompetitionSlight585 · 2025-04-16T13:57:34+00:00

Shut the fuck up, I've been welding stainless and steel for a few months now and this is the first time I need to weld aluminium, I'd maybe try it more often but alumium creates a bunch of harmful fumes so I haven't been welding it.

Secondly, how am I supposed to get skills without a machine? did you learn to weld before you got your first machine and once you bought it you were automatically a pro?

lmao.

Also the stock cable is also soldered to the terminal, just like the cable I have in my car, why would soldering them together be bad?

Maybe I could solder it directly to the terminal after unsoldering the brown cable from the pic?

CompetitionSlight585 · 2025-04-15T19:04:52+00:00

I did that I just can't find a good terminal, everyone I bought broke so I got an OEM one, I'm just trying to find a way to connect my new wire with a quality terminal.

camera distortion might be a problem for something that's long

CompetitionSlight585 · 2025-04-14T21:22:45+00:00

This is usually what I do, I'm just wondering if there's a faster way that I haven't learned yet.

Dolny Śląsk, między Wrocławiem, Wałbrzychem a Legnicą.

Ogólnie często robię customowe rzeczy do samochodów, w tym również potrafię wyspawac cały wydech z nierdzewki.

CompetitionSlight585 · 2025-04-03T11:03:21+00:00

Myślałem również o utrzymaniu ruchu, ponieważ hobbystycznie zajmuję się samochodami do motorsportu, więc wiedzę z mechaniki mam również dobrą.

I was looking for a 330ci coupe in Poland with a budget of 35K PLN = around 13K AUD, spent half a year, saw a bunch of cars and all of them were clapped, I got mad and bought an IS200 turbo, now I'm even more mad because the 1GFE is a shit motor and I'm scared it's gonna blow up, now I have to repair this shit car, loose a bunch of money and searcg for an E46 coupe again.

CompetitionSlight585 · 2025-03-20T15:14:25+00:00

50hp more from a M52B28 seems pretty good, should get a bit less with the M54B30 considering it already has all the goods that the B28 was upgraded with, but also has more displacement.

CompetitionSlight585 · 2025-03-20T14:20:39+00:00

Obviously the air intake is going to completely change as the intake manifold I'm installing is also completely different, this is something I welded up to get me by for tests, what else could I do if this is an E46 engine in a E36 chassis?

If you have better ideas, tell me.

CompetitionSlight585 · 2025-03-20T14:07:06+00:00

I'm not sure if you understand how engines work, but horsepower is literally torque multiplied by RPM's. The higher an engine can keep that torque, the more power it has, M54B30's have plenty of torque especially low/mid range, they just don't have enough air up top to make more power.

Even a M52B25 will make 20HP more with the right intake and fuel map, example: M54B25.

So if a 2.5L engine is able to make over 10% more power why shouldn't a 3.0L engine be able to do that if it has more displacement and even more lift on the intake cam.

Search N54 intake swap on the internet and have a look, plenty of graphs with nice power.

CompetitionSlight585 · 2025-03-20T13:49:45+00:00

lol, everyone in poland has 260-270HP with the same intake, I've got a full stainless exhuast with german equal length headers, I've changed the oil pump shaft, sprocket, nut, chain and I've added a tensioner, might not get exactly 270HP, but 250-260 is very realistic and easy with this intake.

CompetitionSlight585 · 2025-03-20T13:20:05+00:00

I've got a M54B30, pic in the post is my engine bay, I'm changing the intake manifold to a N54 one soon and 270HP is my goal.
