Great video I learned a lot about the install. Putting the same kit on my sister's truck next weekend. Only have one suggested, STOP USING THE WORD BASICALLY. It either is or is not it's not basically. Ask any highschool English teacher.
@@ynnbajay6153 If you are planning to delete the charcoal canister then yes. Those lines feed into that. If you plan on keeping it then it is fine the way i showed it.
@@GUYS.ROD823 I would say the front end was definitely more stiff than before the kit but it was not bad quality at all. I put about 20k miles on this setup before I sold the truck and I had no complaints.
This was a good walkthrough, sadly im in California. I honestly watched this for some insight on a "clean" removal so i could clean and replace mine. My 93 is throwing an egr code and i need to get it smogged before the years ovr and i figure its a combo of carbon and the hard to reach vac lines being cracked. Do u know if the recirculate tube bolt that mounts to the actual egr is a 30mm or 31mm?
@@xsquatchx2535 I have done some street skids but not like full events or anything like that. They handle extremely well for the price but if you are going for a dedicated drift car I think BC might be your best route
My 240 vert has been owned by an idiot before me at some point; who decided to just cut vacuum lines on the EGR and sealed them poorly causing the car to shake at idle and sometimes die at stop
@@WRX_Caleb_Earl Yeah that definitely sounds like a vacuum leak problem causing the sputters or dying. I would for sure do the proper EGR delete and see how that does for you. If it still persists maybe do a smoke test on it. Good luck! 🤟
My 240 has been down for about a decade now... but I recently (couple weeks ago) just cleaned up the intake manifold and everything on it, and I just did the exact same thing you did with the injectors... I hate hate hate phillips on anything in the engine bay.... I've had a ton of bolts snap from rust, but phillips are the worst because they strip so easy.... I'll replace them with damn near any other type (with the exception of slotted!) that'll fit and it'll be better. Now if I can figure out how to get the bottom heat core hose clamped (it's very hard to access), I'll be good to go...
I bought the OEM ones on ebay. Ive tried the autozone/oreillys options (extremely overpriced and worse quality) I tried OE style replacements (trash as well) and finally the best set are the OEM ebay ones.
So i connected my blue wite from the amp to the 12v, and sometimes the stereo will work when it decides to but sometimes it just doesnt. Ive checked the fuses as well, all good. What else could be the issue ?
I fixed the problem and it was a vacuum leak where the upper and lower intake manifold meet. Hopefully this solves your issue. My instagram is @Redneck_tuners if you need anymore help!🤟
As far as emissions it depends on your location. In California, it definitely will not pass, but other states it may. Personally, my car did end up running better because of how old and cracked all of the vacuum lines are and how clogged the egr tube and bpt valve was but if your car is functioning in the stock form just fine, I personally don’t think it is worth removing.
Little late to the party but a tip for the tie rod ends is banging on the spindle itself around the tie rod. That loosens the tension better than trying to hit the actual top of the threads through the spindle
I recognized it instantly too. Bought one brand new back in 1992. Was actually my 2nd choice cause I somehow couldn’t get financed on a 93 Prelude. The 240 was the better car👍👍
Hi, I have got old phone hold and charger installed on the old car, but when I cut it off ( no use anymore), the radio become no sound, may I know what happened
I would definitely say these are a great entry level coilover setup for your car. If you are looking for high end with more adjustability BC would be the route i would take. Although, based on personal experience, if you are looking at higher end coilovers, I highly suggest fortune autos instead of BC.
@@RedneckTuners okay i think ill get racelands for starting just for the daily, anything I should know before installing? And do they come with dampeners?
@@yourpalsphinx8343 definitely grease the upper rubber mounts before assembling because they tend to ping eventually. They do not have adjustable dampening but if you set the preload to the recommended settings, they are perfect for a daily
Your 240sx is super clean btw she may have some cosmetic stuff on the body but underneath she looks to be in incredible shape! makes me miss mine a bunch. It was even the same silver blue as yours. Hang on to her!
Thank you for the kind words!! This car has been neglected its whole life but im slowly trying to bring it back to its former glory. I have nothing but positive things to say about my experience with this car and i even love the color! I cant wait to be able to afford the body work and paint respray for it
Hey bro great video and info!! So I have a 91 240 that I'm rebuilding would you know where I can get information on which vacuum lines and things I can delete off of that intake and what I cannot delete? Thank you
Thanks for watching! Honestly i found an old forum post with the information i needed for vacuum lines and for some reason i cannot find it right now. Sorry about that man
Anyone about to do this project should do a couple of things that makes it much easier... use a impact! Take off the sway bar it makes it much easier, take the calipers off and hang from frame so you don't hurt brake lines. You can't measure from wheel well because front has a higher arch so its an optical illusion. The truck should be measured at rocker panel. That truck is sitting level. I put on 2" Rough country struts and truck rides great! A simple swap and don't have to disassemble struts. I also put a factory 2018 Z71 Silverado block and ubolts in the rear. It fit perfect and was from my Silverado after a lift. I'm really thinking about putting a 1/4" spacer on top of struts to get another 1/2" out of the front. I have 0 issues and my 2022 Colorado LT REDLINE EDITION 4x4 is constantly off road with no problems, squeak or popping.
Thanks for all the tips. I will soon be making the switch to the leveling struts from Rough Country because the ride is not as comfortable and I get a decent clunk from the driver side front going over bumps. I look forward to getting it worthy of the trails again
@RedneckTuners also to get tie rods out just smack the knuckle a couple of times where tie rod goes in. It will fall right out. Taking a few minutes to disassemble the calipers and sway bar help a lot !!! They're just in the way.
Sup man this vid helped a lot and I also have the same issue with the misfire. If you figure it out let me know. I have a 1991 also. Deleted EGR along with the vacuum tubes leading to the air intake
Hey bro! Glad the video was helpful. I ended up tracing the misfire to a pretty decent sized vacuum leak between the bottom intake plenum and the head. Took it off, cleaned the surface, new gaskets, and shes run perfect ever since. If you need any help or anything DM me on instagram and id be glad to help 🤟
@@RedneckTuners yes sir.. I also just put the 31 inch duratracs on but they are only 1 inch wider and a bit thicker.. I kind of wish I went with a 33 but didn't want to be bothered with trimming.. I'm still considering
