My b13 Project "Seven" - SR20 Community Forum

seven_b13 · 05-28-2009, 08:45 PM

Ok. It was about time that I put up a thread documenting my progress with my 93' Se-r. First Let me start things off with my 1st b13 (first car I owned).. an XE but still..

2005-2007
THIS IS SEVEN 1 (I call her Seven Jr.) IN HER PRISTINE

AFTER A FRONT END COLLISION HERE SHE IS AFTER REPAIR. (STUPID LADY BACK UP INTO HER WHILE PARKED. NEVER EVEN LOOKED)

After blowing the AT, I sold off the wheels and a few other parts and removed a bunch more of the interior stuff and took her to the junk yard to RIP..

SEPT. 2008
AND I moved onto my 93' Se-r, I call her Seven Sr. Got my papers and all w/ the original book and window sticker.

1993 USDM sr20de Highport 148k

Mods so far:
Pop charger intake
SSAC header & DP
2.5" custom mandrel bent piping
Edelbrock Muffler (Stock looking, Cops are asses around NY)
Stillen F stb
ST F&R sway bars
KYB GR-2 shocks
Hypercoils (2nd Gen)
Addv22 front brakes
SS F&R brake lines

You can check my 1st photoshoot here:
The 1st shots of my Se-r (Pic Heavy)

I had bought some b14 wheels before I had even bought the car but haven't gotten around to getting some rubber to throw them on. I cleaned them up really good and I will have them on before the summer.

Here's a short video I put together of me on the upstate NY streets messing around. You can hear exhaust and see me do a few pull offs and then a drive by.

SHORT VIDEO

YouTube - My b13 Se-r

As I got more curious about my new found car, SO I decided to take her to a DYNO and see what type of starting numbers I was getting. A little disappointing.

DYNO VIDEO

YouTube - DYNO Run

Chart showed around 98HP! Very Disappointing to say the least.

THE HELP THREADS
At Dyno Losing Power - Need Help
Weekend Plan - Suggestions?
I'm in the progress in checking all the possible problems. transmission/clutch is a major suspect in 1-2 above 6000RPMs. It was suppose to have had the clutch replaced at 60-70k but w/ an OEM one which isn't really for a much more than stock power. Compression could be an issue also ALONG WITH the Timing being off and/or the ignition parts being old/warn/damaged.

Got full tuneup parts (spark plugs, wires, pcv valve, fuel filter, oil filter, distributor and cap). I installed everything. I used Mobil 1 motor oil for the 3 oil changes I've done since I got her.

Thank you GSpec.

I will be tackling getting the rusted rocker panels cleaned up and primed. I haven't figured out how I will fix them yet.

I have a new problem with my PS fluid is leaking. I will be getting the compression and timing checked asap and I'm going to check on the leaky PS tubes.

You might be right. I just did a lil research and that might actually be it. I will have to look into it further for sure..

pr20de · 05-28-2009, 10:59 PM

that rust is pretty bad, but it's definitely worth fixing it cause the rest of the car is super clean

Yeah I know. I could swap for a newer shell but i'd be giving up a 95% perfect body for that 5% of rust on the rocker panels for a shell that might not have rusted rocker panels but a whole lot other stuff that's messed up.. I'll fix it. No biggie..

exactly, trust me i've seen a lot worse end up looking like nothing ever happened

seven_b13 · 05-31-2009, 11:11 PM

UPDATE:

Did a few things today. I've been having erratic idle and hesitations (AND lose of power to the wheels too).. SO I tested my MAFs and TPS. Got my FSM for the b13 to do it correctly.

FSM

Got a new Multimeter. I will slowly but surely test all my electrical things.

PROCEDURE

TPS was good and right to spec. As you can see from the FSM, I should be at 1.3-1.7V for the MAF BUT after multiple test I was getting .5-.7V. NOT GOOD!

. NEED A MAFS ASAP!

Today, I was also working on removing all the rust, priming as a temporary fix til I can get it to a body shop.

A few more pics from the weekend with me checking FSM.

MORE PICS TO COME

Before long you'll come down with SE-Ritis, for which there is no cure. If you are like the rest of us, rehab is not an option.

ser_soldier · 06-03-2009, 04:44 AM
