The Mechanics of a Restored S14: A Night of Trial and Error

As we sat around the workbench, admiring our handiwork, I couldn't help but feel a sense of pride and accomplishment. Our latest project, a restored S14, was finally coming together. Wyatt had been working tirelessly to get everything fixed up, from the cracked frame to the faulty engine mounts. And it showed - every piece of the car seemed to be in its right place.

But just as we were about to declare victory, Hayden stepped forward with a welder in hand and announced that he would be fixing the cracks himself. I was skeptical at first, but as I watched him work, I realized that he was the mastermind behind the repairs. The engine mounts, once cracked and broken, now seemed sturdy and strong.

As we continued to work on the car, we encountered a few more issues - a leaky intake manifold, a bent input shaft, and a transmission with a sad, crooked shaft. But we didn't let that deter us. We worked tirelessly, problem-solving and troubleshooting until every issue was resolved.

One of the biggest challenges we faced was the engine itself. The previous owner had swapped out the oil filter, which meant that we had to swap it back out again. And then there were the injectors - custom-made for our car, but not exactly easy to install. But with patience and persistence, we managed to get everything just right.

As the night wore on, we began to make progress. The engine was rebuilt, the transmission was fixed, and the suspension was tightened up. It was a long and difficult process, but it was worth it in the end. We had created something truly special - a car that was not only functional, but also beautiful.

But just as we were about to call it a night, Emilio pulled out his tools and announced that he would be taking Andrew's S14 apart for repairs. It seemed like a daunting task, but we were confident in our abilities. And sure enough, after a few hours of tinkering, they had identified the problem - a bent shaft on the transmission.

It was a disappointment, to say the least. But we knew that it was an easy fix - just a matter of straightening out the shaft and replacing the damaged parts. And with that, our night of trial and error came to an end. We had worked hard, but in the end, it was all worth it.

As I looked around at my team, I couldn't help but feel a sense of pride and gratitude. We had come together as strangers, united by our love of cars and our desire to fix them. And through sweat, tears, and late nights, we had created something truly special - a car that would be remembered for years to come.

The Turbo Kit: A Final Touch

As the night drew to a close, we began to think about the final touches on the S14. We had already installed the new engine, transmission, and suspension, but there was still one more thing to do - install the turbo kit. It was a tricky process, requiring careful planning and precision execution.

But with Wyatt's guidance, we managed to get it just right. The turbocharger whirred to life, pumping boost through the engine like a well-oiled machine. And as we watched the needle on the gauge climb higher and higher, we knew that we had done something truly special.

The Final Touches: Putting Everything Together

As we finished up the final touches on the S14, I couldn't help but feel a sense of excitement and anticipation. We had worked so hard to get everything just right, and now it was time to see it all come together.

With the turbo kit installed, the car seemed to come alive. The engine purred smoothly, the transmission shifted perfectly, and the suspension sang with ease. It was a beautiful thing to behold, and I couldn't wait to take it for a spin.

But as we stood there admiring our handiwork, Emilio spoke up with a warning. "We've got one more issue to fix," he said, his voice low and serious. "The input shaft is still slightly bent." It was a minor problem, but one that we knew needed to be addressed.

With that, our night of trial and error came to an end. We had worked hard, but in the end, it was all worth it. The S14 was ready, and we couldn't wait to take it out for a spin.

this way yeah okay see ya we have quite a bit to get done today we're going to try to get the s14 back up and running right now the engine is pretty much ready to be pulled out turbo manifolds are off wiring harness all that stuff we just got to unbolt this thing out of the engine bay and yank her out and then we will be able to start putting it all back together with the new engine we still have to get that out of the bat rod but why it was uh busy working on that this morning getting there all ready to be pulled the only reason it's at this point is i had to go get him at 5 00 a.m yeah this dude chose a 6 a.m arrival that's the only reason this is ready to go so that's i got to work instead of going back to bed bright and early we still need to get the bat rod pulled out of the trailer i'm gonna get the engine pulled out of the bat rod and then once this one's out of the s14 we can start swapping everything over to the new motor and then get all that put back into the car and we should be ready to go so that's what we got going on for today we're just gonna try to get this thing back up and running hopefully we can do a burnout this weekend in this thing and uh before we get too into this video i want you guys to let us know how you're liking the daily videos i think i'm going to try to you know have a daily video up until this weekend there should be no reason we can't so drop a like if you want to see some daily uploads and uh it is going to get really hot today we have everyone out here right now so we're also going to be spending part of the day just kind of hanging out by the pool and having a good old time because we've been super busy these last few days so we're also going to relax for a little bit while the sun is out and then we'll probably turn this into an afternoon job and kind of go into the night trying to get the car up and running i think i saw like a high of like 90 degrees today so i'm sure by about three o'clock everybody's gonna be ready to jump in the pool and uh we ain't gonna be too apt to work on anything i'll tell you that right now it's to be very hot today especially we got rain yesterday it's really humid so yeah yeah while we got everyone down we'll have a little pool party for a little bit and then uh we'll get back on this thing get that bat rod motor pulled out get the 240 back up and going so oh it broke off yep you got to re-weld the an egt-bong boat broke off you can see it better right there that egt bong is completely ripped off on the bottom of the exhaust manifold right there so pretty bad exhausted you hear it ticking just coming in i heard it got a lot louder just right there with him backing it in yeah we already good just got to pull that manifold off and my hand down there get it welded up blowing my hand away really yeah if we should put like a uh like a sheet weld a sheet over it or something then put it back in because it looks like it's gonna rip right out again eight six with an exhaust leak a big one yeah i mean that's another wastegate right i mean that's letting boost out or not letting us make as much boost you need some help you step on this yeah so grab the roof right that's so nice how are you feeling papa steve oh feeling good do you like it hell yeah got a little vacay all right oh yeah beard pool beard pool and the day went too here we go let's go that was great i remember when you were looking at houses and you're like i don't think i want to get on with the pool so if you would have gone with a pool you'd have definitely messed up yeah is a big waste of time but it is worth it we'll make up for the time later tonight this is work later tonight productivity later exactly the pool was probably the best part about the house other than the shop you know i was worried about maintaining a pool all you do is pay a pool guy he comes once a week and it's over you know it's easy done thank you pool guy for coming and cleaning out the leaves once a week is that the quote do what you do best and hire the rest pool guy is the best hire you've made you've seen this dude's toter home so take that take those words of wisdom there besides what's the golly okay i'm a pretty good hire just gonna put that out there boys i drink on the clock i enjoy the pool i don't work honestly like you made the best decision he's laying his resume out there for any future hirings yeah if anybody's interested hit me up with golly oh you got a wall all right i know this is normally a car related channel only but we're showing all that going on today on with cooking channel let me show you guys it's fong's cooking channel you can't take that away from him but k series grill going right here we're going to be cooking some steaks on that we're going to be cooking some more steaks on that grill and then show them the show them the chicken right here let me check okay admit it's my cooking channel first and i'll show you the goods all right show us what's on your chick cooking there you go i'll show you what i got going on here boys there you go some a1 on our chicken we got them seasoned up we got some spring rolls crab and shrimp going on in the house tell you what you like it i do what you cooking on the k grill we're going to cook the pepper cheese oh there they are oh steaks not the peppercinis we're going all in pulling it out of the bucket you ever seen a steak bucket before i've never seen a steak bucket before straight meat bucket right there baby right on right on the k grill meat bucket oh you're missing there you go no i'm not the wind blow it oh fong with the seasoning yes do we get the choo-choo it's a bomb it's so good huh oh so good so good i'm going for seconds this is so good probably the best steak i've ever had not gonna lie oh yeah she is cracked good let me get that guy welded up you ready to go just wire wheel it off clean it off and yeah you try to bend it back straight we do them all misses no cracks and i think there's a crack here but this is the old one i had a wastegate here before can we put the v-band on here so i think it's crackpiers i'm gonna wire it out just so i can look at it just make sure it's all good to go yes sir dang good got laundry in here really has to get some things buttoned up on this oh yeah yeah we're going we got a late start today as you can see it is dark out and now we are starting to go honestly i understand why because it is so hot in the day it's hard to even work through it hey but the pool is nice though yeah yeah let me tell you all right me and fong have been getting the motor pulled out of the bat rod we're almost there just gotta get the engine hoist and get it yanked out we got the manifolds everything off but right now they're using the engine hoist over there for the s14 so once they're done getting the engine out over there we'll be able to use the engine hoist and bring it back over here to the bat rod and get that thing pulled out and start swapping everything back over the frame is really big yeah that frame got pushed back so hard came in and out a lot easier before it got crashed into the barrier all right fine give it a pull it does look beautiful party all day work on that sorry this is partying too oh there she is we got our engine out of the bat rod here and then we also got the engine out of the s14 and we just got to start swapping everything over get the transmission on this guy start putting it back together what's up dude how are you doing man it's been good yeah he's getting big we're out here so we got a lot of things got a lot of things going on tonight all kinds of stuff everything's here to help let him know oh yeah give him a wrench give him a wrench look there's get the wrench for your look ready let's start that needs to come off right here take this off take it off there you go reception yeah he's like that's that's the wrong range yeah this goes okay there you go hayden just got tom's manifold patched up for him real quick it looks bad i blame the crocs can't well good in the crocs nope is it kind of weird on the pedal or something yeah it doesn't feel right exactly what's going on it looks good though looks like it works it's all packed up it'll definitely be better than it was yeah just that stuff's really thin so yeah it's 18 gauge yeah no more hole that's why you can lift it with one hand well you let the other one move yeah like this like oh my god all right got everything pretty much stripped off of this engine right here i need to swap the oil pans though because when you use this adapter plate there's these little ears that come on the factory j series oil pan right they need to be locked off so it would be a lot easier if we didn't have to do that but unfortunately i need to get the oil pan off of this engine and put it on that one right there dude the last couple drips at the end there hey emilio how's it going bro it doesn't look right from back here i can get it from this way like from back where i'm looking at like he's hey he's cool he's all the way in there i just got this cupid me more vitamins that doesn't look very good just black what are you talking about that's that's bronze that's crazy that's after 40. this guy man that's after 46. it's just trickling out too man it's just uh you know i know i needed to better go you better go get that checked i was thinking that look double streams you know what that means so this is the fuel cell off pong's car the phoenix it had a crack in it while we were at uh houston and he was not able to run it so we have it off right now and wyatt has been working on getting it all fixed up so you want to show the bottom real quick for the oh yeah the cracks were so hayden actually welded these so yeah so hayden came through on fixing the cracks yeah i got pissed off at it and left so hayden got those cracks filled in so the leak is good and then this thing was cracked all the way up the side dude yeah it was bad so it was a good thing you didn't run it because yeah it could have been bad it was leaking methanol everywhere nitro this thing has been like fixed like two professional aluminum whale and it keeps breaking no today oh today you're calling wide approach which one to crack first you probably need to make some like little rubber mounts so it doesn't vibrate so yeah and then and then right now they're adding this fill tube because this sits under his intake manifold and it's really hard for him to fill it up so they're adding this to make it nice and easy this one is maybe they added up like a quarter of a gallon of view yeah before oh yeah it gives it a little more yeah volume all right we just got everything transferred over from the new engine that came out of frank got his peak up again before i can uh finish explaining what's going on here but you know got everything swapped over got our new mounts on there we had to swap the pulley we had to swap the oil filter piece the one right here to our new billet one we had to swap out the intake manifolds with my fuel rails and the injectors the custom little tube that i made that 180s out for our front coolant line there had to do a lot of stuff to this engine we still have to plug this port right here where these oil feeds are going to because we actually have a sandwich plate in the car for oil feeds so we can still plug that off but everything's on there transmission is obviously on clutch flywheel all that stuff with the adapter plate so we are stabbing her in right now and she's in she's in now it's just putting the turbo kit and everything else back together and taking all that good stuff but we've been pranking on the s14 all night but she has a new engine all this just to possibly blow it up yeah one night but you know one night of fun man that's all you need it for yeah it'll be worth it it'll be awesome brent had his fun with this one oh man yeah all right guys we got a whole bunch of stuff done tonight got the engine back into the 240 uh but we're putting everything away for tonight right now uh emilio got andrew apart and was hoping to get her back up and going for cletus and cars but unfortunately yeah found a couple issues with her a little worse than we thought she has a little a little sad shaft on the train bent shaft on the that's such a bad shape a little bent yeah you don't you don't want a crooked shaft especially on your transmission or a little out of focus here but yeah especially on your transmission shaft i mean yeah if it's on use whatever you know it'll straighten itself out but on training we're talking about too much stuff on a transmission on a gearbox yeah man what are you guys thinking about man it's not stupid it's not good to have a crooked shaft it's great okay that's that's the issue though there's a crooked shaft and then i'm not saying anything more on it yeah we're going to get it fixed you know you know they got it's going back to colorado yeah because of those freaking dowel pins from way back when but we finally like we went through so many things not knowing it was that and finally found out it was that and then yeah the input shaft was already bent but it was slightly bent now it's just way now it's like way out at least honestly you're lucky yeah the gears and all that is still good i was letting and on that note we're calling it for tonight because it's like past one right at least so we've been putting in work today i mean oh 12 59 that was a good guess but yeah we wasted a lot of the day i wouldn't say wasted but we spent most of the day in the pool and it was worth it but we had a very productive night and try to get up early and see if we can just button up the s14 and get it fired up for this video so i don't know if there's gonna be the end of this video or not i'm gonna try to get up early and just finish it and then that'll be the end of this video thank you but we'll carry on in the morning that's two tomorrow youwhat's up guys look who made it what up got hayden down here while i picked him up from the airport this morning so you know hello they're going to be sharing wyatt's

get that checked i was thinking that look double streams you know what that means so this is the fuel cell off pong's car the phoenix it had a crack in it while we were at uh houston and he was not able to run it so we have it off right now and wyatt has been working on getting it all fixed up so you want to show the bottom real quick for the oh yeah the cracks were so hayden actually welded these so yeah so hayden came through on fixing the cracks yeah i got pissed off at it and left so hayden got those cracks filled in so the leak is good and then this thing was cracked all the way up the side dude yeah it was bad so it was a good thing you didn't run it because yeah it could have been bad it was leaking methanol everywhere nitro this thing has been like fixed like two professional aluminum whale and it keeps breaking no today oh today you're calling wide approach which one to crack first you probably need to make some like little rubber mounts so it doesn't vibrate so yeah and then and then right now they're adding this fill tube because this sits under his intake manifold and it's really hard for him to fill it up so they're adding this to make it nice and easy this one is maybe they added up like a quarter of a gallon of view yeah before oh yeah it gives it a little more yeah volume all right we just got everything transferred over from the new engine that came out of frank got his peak up again before i can uh finish explaining what's going on here but you know got everything swapped over got our new mounts on there we had to swap the pulley we had to swap the oil filter piece the one right here to our new billet one we had to swap out the intake manifolds with my fuel rails and the injectors the custom little tube that i made that 180s out for our front coolant line there had to do a lot of stuff to this engine we still have to plug this port right here where these oil feeds are going to because we actually have a sandwich plate in the car for oil feeds so we can still plug that off but everything's on there transmission is obviously on clutch flywheel all that stuff with the adapter plate so we are stabbing her in right now and she's in she's in now it's just putting the turbo kit and everything else back together and taking all that good stuff but we've been pranking on the s14 all night but she has a new engine all this just to possibly blow it up yeah one night but you know one night of fun man that's all you need it for yeah it'll be worth it it'll be awesome brent had his fun with this one oh man yeah all right guys we got a whole bunch of stuff done tonight got the engine back into the 240 uh but we're putting everything away for tonight right now uh emilio got andrew apart and was hoping to get her back up and going for cletus and cars but unfortunately yeah found a couple issues with her a little worse than we thought she has a little a little sad shaft on the train bent shaft on the that's such a bad shape a little bent yeah you don't you don't want a crooked shaft especially on your transmission or a little out of focus here but yeah especially on your transmission shaft i mean yeah if it's on use whatever you know it'll straighten itself out but on training we're talking about too much stuff on a transmission on a gearbox yeah man what are you guys thinking about man it's not stupid it's not good to have a crooked shaft it's great okay that's that's the issue though there's a crooked shaft and then i'm not saying anything more on it yeah we're going to get it fixed you know you know they got it's going back to colorado yeah because of those freaking dowel pins from way back when but we finally like we went through so many things not knowing it was that and finally found out it was that and then yeah the input shaft was already bent but it was slightly bent now it's just way now it's like way out at least honestly you're lucky yeah the gears and all that is still good i was letting and on that note we're calling it for tonight because it's like past one right at least so we've been putting in work today i mean oh 12 59 that was a good guess but yeah we wasted a lot of the day i wouldn't say wasted but we spent most of the day in the pool and it was worth it but we had a very productive night and try to get up early and see if we can just button up the s14 and get it fired up for this video so i don't know if there's gonna be the end of this video or not i'm gonna try to get up early and just finish it and then that'll be the end of this video thank you but we'll carry on in the morning that's two tomorrow you\n"
