lol I have not updated in soo long.. Never did finish the swap, the guy I was working with went on a month long vacation, then had to go to school so he never had time to work on it (the cars in his garage). I plan on finishing it in the spring.

Even I have gotten so busy with work and studying. Hard to find time to do the stupid wiring and whatnot. There realy isnt much left to do.. the major thing is figure out the driveshaft issue, I reaaaly dont want to put the money out for a 1 peice.. shipping and duty is so insane to Canada. Right now I have both a S14 AT driveshaft and a s13 MT driveshaft, I am hoping the combination of the front half of the S13 and the rear half of the s14 will fit. Even though Ill need to get a new spline to combine them.

After that I have to get a FMIC, which I will probable just find a used core locally and do the piping myself. I am realy trying not to put out alot of money. Trying to save for a house and do some small mods to my wrx.

 

when was the last time this car saw the road?lol

 

you realize the reason I am leaving it till spring is because I cant drive it right now anyways? Winter in Canada lol.

 

^haha i realized it but remember its future

 

Time to drive down to the states, send your DS to my place in WI

Box has been busy, on the Subie

 

Box has been busy, with your motheerrrrrrr

 

you left your girlfriend un attended for fonix to snatch. wait hes mexican its way to cold up there for him

 

Na, she's at my place. I cook up some back bacon, she comes running.

On a "on topic" note, we could organize a convoy box Or just keep a big pile o' parts at my place to come get. Gas might be cheaper than duty fees and shipping

 

swap meet @ boostin's place? :rockon

updates

 

so the car pissed me off last summer so I parked it, taking it to a shop in Edmonton that specializes in Nissan builds to sort out some wiring issues.. Ill have it back for spring.. Ill need to decide if I want to keep it and fix some rust issues (probably would just cut out the frame rails and get new ones welded in) orrrr sell it.

 

 

baha ive taken a break from all my forums the past year! except its been pointless because the less time I spend on here, the more I just end up on Reddit..

I guess there are parts I have never updated with.. such as a Greddy M spec intercooler and a MBC, I need to invest in a EBC and some gauges if I am actually gonna drive this POS

Oh and I NEEEED longer studs/spacers for the rear wheels as well

 

ohh ended up with some aftermarket taillights for retarded cheap.. they are still in the box and I forget what they look like, I thiiink they are this style. I'll probably end up installing them cuz my one tallight has had a crack in it since I got the car.

im not really a huuge fan of them, but I think they might actually look good with the white.

 

Time to nut up and get us some fresh pics and get a current thread again lol

 

Hey there buddy, nice to see you again.

You def need to post some more pictures, maybe some currents ones instead of the 19th century pics. Also, fix the rust, its cheap to do.

Hows life?

 

Well the car is 3 hours away, ill take pics when I get it back haha. As far as the rust,l im gonna look into and see how bad it actually is.. I dont want to fuck around with it so I would be getting a body shop to do it all.

Life is good, building a house and should be in it sometime in April-March.. big 2 car garage so plenty of room for stuff. Probably going to sell my jetski to help fund the 240/buy furniture..dont really want to but meh I hardly used it last summer anyways and could use some extra cash.

 

Congrats on building a house thats fucking awesome. What is the average price of a house (the same kind you would be building) and how much is it going to cost you?

My parents have a single, 4 bedroom, living room, family room, 1 car garage, 40,000 sq feet (I think) with a pool that is worth lie 350k now if they sold it, bought it in 2003 for 285k and would cost 500k ish to build now.

 

40,000sq feet? thats a mansion lol

mine is 1,150sq ft (just upstairs, with the basement I gues you could say ~2,200sq ft) Im buying it with only the upstairs finished and am doing the basement myself, its not exactly a starter home, has tile/hardwood/good lighting.. all that. 2 bedrooms upstairs, 2 bedrooms downstairs, 2 bathrooms upstairs, 1 downstairs, 2 car garage is fully finished with a natural gas heater..

A family friend/good friend of mine is the general contractor so he is giving me a pretty good price in the $325,000 range, with the basement finished it'll be around $350,000.. if he did the basement it would have been another 10 grand or so. Then I still have blinds, a fence, landscaping... so its gonna be expensive. If I was to turn around and sell it in the fall I would probably be asking around $380,000 based on what is on the market right now.
