so i did a little research and couldnt find shit. your using the r33 crossmember correct? how is the fitment of that compatible with the s13/14? bolt on? modding required? if you dont mind when doing your install of the motor and trans mounts/etc take a good pic. i havent seen a decent one yet utilizing this kit. also those wiring specialties pre-made harness's are going to be superb.

when you use the SYKO engine kit you have to use the R33 crossmember which will bolt right up to S13/14 chassis, you just have to reloactate the PS cooler line by making one using a small Tranny cooler or PS cooler.

I plan on taking lots of install pics though too.

Yeah i cant wait till Yury finishes them.

ISIS is a pretty legit company, Its no GReddy but i trust it.
Also Ken @ Enjuku Backs it up, So if i got an issue I know hell take care of me.

Sorry to say, but ISIS isn't legit. They sell cheap stuff. It isn't as bad as Ebay, but I wouldn't trust them. Just sayin...

^ (has never used a single isis part and is probably basing an assumption off the bandwagon.) i like their rad's and intercoolers, but tim is right the weld/clearence on that Exhaust manifold looks scary. id wrap that sombitch alot with some thermal exhaust tape or whatever its called. worst case scenario , it cracks, oh no's! just re-weld it after. and is that syko elbow compatible with that manifold setup? i dunno if the placement of the turbo is moved slightly or not. good luck with your build

I do, Ive been dealing with Ken and Enjuku for a long time, Ken is a stand up guy, and unlike E-Bay crap, ISIS Actually does R&D with their Products.

I have their Control arm package on the S14 right now had it on there for like 6 months now i think, 0 Issues and very beefy design.

Obliviously.

well they sent me another Manifold that clears the V/C just the welds sucked on one area, but i cleaned them up
DO NOT BUY SHIT FROM XS-POWER THEY ARE WORTHLESS PIECES OF SHIT.
NO R&D GO INTO MAKING THESE MANIFOLDS



Well see, I planned on adding a brace for the turbo flange to help it from cracking, but if it does no biggie i got a welder.

well the manifold angled (not moved) the turbo out about an inch up on the block, and i know SYKO just did some revisements on the Elbow (not sure what they changed) but well see.
Thanks

The build is nice, but I have seen several RB's go into S14's. I wanna see more of that FD with the 20B in it. LOL. Keep up the good work man.
