Which clutch are you going with?

87GTR 05-02-10 08:56 PM

I think the ACT 6 puck Z65-HDR6


I also have HKS twin plate in storage, but it needs new discs and heard that they are loud. So Im not sure if I want to use that one. I think the ACT will work just fine.


now the next part is on the way

Nice find 87 GTR :icon_tup:

Looks to me like you have the SX (Sports Extra) model.

Do you still see many 20B JC's about in Japan?

yeah still see some 20B JC's around. but they are getting harder and harder to come by. You can pick one up for around 5 ~10k



This one is a 13B but it seams get off the line a little faster than 20B I had. and 0 - 100km is too close to tell a difference

I think it is because the 13B Sports have 4.3 rear and the 20B get 3.9.

I got a really good deal on this car. I had bought it just to take the motor out, but after driving it I'm going to mod it up some and drive it for while. Some the reasons for going with a 13B this time

it not going to cost as much to mod the car.
if i blow it up the rebuild for 2 rotor is alot cheaper.
I dont have to spend crazy amount money to buy an ecu that will run a 3 rotor
I'm 99% sure I can get the apex powerfc that I have for FD to run engine ( just need to get the ECU pin out for the Cosmo ECU ).
I can still make an easy 450 ~ 500hp with a two rotor.
and with all that extra room in the front I can build duct system to force all the air over the intercooler and rad.


I opened the truck and found a RE Amemiya tower bar in there

The owner before me build a neat cold air box

Is this thing street legal in the states? Or are you driving this thing in Japan?

I live in japan

Slammedblk7 05-03-10 09:08 PM

....used to live off shady grove though. Thats a story for another day.

Nice. I hear its really expensive to own a car in Asia. Limited parking and strict smog laws and everything. You must be pretty well off.

How much power does that thing make? Does it compare to a Lexus SC? Cosmo is a luxury brand right? Sorry, I'm a newb. I know I can google, but I'm trying to make conversation.

I think stock it was 230 hp. I have never driven a Lexus SC so I cant really compare it. here in Okinawa its not to bad to own a car I would guess about the same to own one in the states.

I put the Manaray Quest VR5 wheels on the Cosmo today

Rained like hell yesterday so the car is dirty

very nice the cosmo kinda reminds me of the 90's skyline.
now put a large single turbo on there :)

87GTR 05-09-10 10:06 PM

Werd looks like I might be selling or parting out this one most likely parting this one. Anyone interested in 13B Cosmo motor? has 76000km ~ 47K miles on it and runs good.



I have found 95 Cosmo 20B, that I'm working on picking up.

87GTR 05-15-10 05:28 AM

washed and waxed

http://infini-fc3s.cyberosity.com/ga...icture+777.jpg

The car had old bubbly tint in the rear that you could not see out of. so removed with steamer and re-tinted the windows.

it just stopped raining so the car now a dirty now

Those wheels look good! :nod:

87GTR 05-16-10 04:13 AM

well never count your mounts until they are mounted on the car. turns out the deal I had for a trans mount has fallen apart. his brother gave it away when cleaning out their garage. so im looking for a mount.

What parts are you looking for? Im also looking for the wiring diagrams. I would like to find a ecu pin out so I can install a powerfc.

just waiting for all the parts to show up. I ordered a clutch kit. Then I need to find a shop to swap the drive shaft yokes. I been told that they will have to cut them off and weld the FC yoke on the cosmo shaft then get it balanced out.

87GTR 06-20-10 03:47 AM

lets half bridge the cosmo

blwfly 06-20-10 09:54 AM

im not sure which fc tanny your using and if all yokes the same on turbo models.
but when i made my driveshaft for my repu i had to figure the specs my tranny is a s4t2

heres yoke specs spline count is 25 and od of the splines is 27.30mm

instead of half bridge do big streetports.
