cool!

 

Sound like a good car. GL.

 

finally we dont have to hear about what car you might think maybe yes or no your gonna get.

now we just gotta hear about what parts you might think maybe yes or no your gonna get.

 

it had a bra on it, thats why the hood has that wierd dirt. it needs new pads all around it seems and an alignment, and i need to get the horn working so i can get through inspection. but tommarow and saturday im gonna have little time to work on it, but sunday is gonna be a major cleaning day. wash it, clean the interior, take out the "system" wiring, put in my head unit from the Z, try to get the pads done and the horn working. and my alignment will have to wait when one of the guys at work have some free time. but now for the pictors!!!1

i will get more on sunday when i clean the car up some...lucky me the car really is pretty rust free. framereails are good, none on the strut towers or in the engine bay and very little on the hatch under the wing.

 

picture batch numero DOS! heres my progress for tonite, gonna give her a wash tommarow and reinstall the rear interior, and see what i can do about the head unit. and sunday...idk, i'll see then. probably write my english paper.

NO RUST!!!

cracked dash :/

THE HOLY GRAIL OF 240'S!! sunroof shade bag!!

System wires :nono

Dirty floor

All clean!!!

 

Bout fuckin time.

 

looks nice man..

its also cool thats its bone stock and not a ready made.

 

as everyone looks over at zach.

 

whoa, wait . . . this is your first 240sx?

 

Why is the sunroof shade bag the holy grail of 240s? I have one.

 

yea, I have one, too. they're rare

 

gah what a rats nest of wire

 

whats up with people always painting shit white?

 

Morgan , you do know to get rid of that rear wing , i mean sponge before it rust through your hatch right?

 

whoa, wait . . . this is your first 240sx?

yep


yes i know...removing the foam is on my to do list. but the rust underneath it doesnt seem that bad though. and hopefully the rain holds off for today, i think i have some satin black left over so im going to paint the silver trim pieces today and im ordering new lower control arms today from PDM racing, new balljoint and all new rubber bushings in new stock oem arms for only $100 for both! and im also getting a head unit mounting kit too. hopefully i can get this thing registered on wednesday so i can start driving the piss out of it.

 

^ Looking good Morgan... I see you bought the PDM arms, nice, did you get the poly bushings I was telling you about?

 

i just ordered them...and no. i didnt get the set with the whiteline bushings as they were 121 a piece, but they had others ones with just normal rubber bushings for 100 for both!! so i saved my self 142 bucks. and im out of paint...so i need to go get some for the trim pieces, and i need to get another radio bezel. and i cant do anything today because the roofers took over my driveway...

 

i might still have a extra bezel laying about my house ill have to look

 

word son

 

painted interior black, got the stereo rewired, in and working and put the interior back in. tried to get teh horn to work but i have no clue whats wrong with it...everything is hooked up now and its still not working. if the stock wheel ends up being broke im gonna order a Vertex or Nardi wheel (deep dish)

 

thats realy tight, getting a bone stock 240 is the best mine was bone stock with 76,000 miles when i got mien

 

the horns were just blown..went to pep boys and got a cheap ass one, it now works. and my HO and CO levels were to high for the two speed test. the HO was high at idle 231/220 and the CO were high at idle and 2500rpm, 180/120 213/120, also at pepboys got some Lucas oil powerboost/octance booster stuff. threw that in with a tank of 93 octane and passed the HO with flying colors and just skimmed by the CO levels. ended up with 114/120 and 112/120 for the CO...so big ups to LUCAS OIL OCTANE BOOSTER!!! helped me pass my emissions and get her on the road.

 

lol at the gas can sitting next to that crows nest of wire.. nice find though. what are your plans with the front end? i hate bras. whats the point? protect the paint? yeah looks fabulous haha. good luck man. bout damn time.

 

yea, idk what was up with the gas can. and the front end i dont have anything in mind at the moment. just gonna do the suspension exhaust and 5 lug...might buy my wheels with it all but the extra $3000 (17x9 +0 black te-37's on 255/40 falken azenis all around) isnt to appetizing at the moment. but it needs a new clutch too...grr, i just got the one on my Z broken in and now i have to break another one in soon....sounds like fun. but i doubt im going to get my TE's now so i am now adding a Nardi Rally sport 355mm suede wheel (deep dish) with the works bell quick disconnect, because the wheel definately needs to be closer to me, and maybe a bride seat and fabric for the door panels to complete the package...so hopefully my list is going to now look like this

stance gr+ pro
Battle version rucas
Battle version tension rods
Battle version toe rods
SPL tie rods
5 lug + Z brakes in the front.
blitz nur-spec
Nardi Rally sport 355mm suede
WB quick disconnect
Clutch
Bride Zeta III LARGE in gradation for my big ass + bride super low rails and fabric for door panels!!

woo! bout 5g's worth of stuff and none of it is going twords the body!!

i hear ya. i now have about 8k into my car. its about 6 different colors and a nice old dent. suspension is definately the way to go. if i would stop breaking shit maybe id be able to do more suspension dammit.

 

small update..my PDM FLCA's came in, but who knows when im going to get them on due to lots of work now seeing that our daytime guy quit. just realized today that my drivers rear rotor is totally fucked and is the cause of my brakes squeeking...its the equivalent of a Vinyl records surface..but deeper grooves. and my car shorts out everytime i try to start it now with the hood closed, acts like someone yanked the positive cable off the battery when i turn the key...

 

and today i think the battery is totally dead..i get like a half hour here on my lunch break to see if thats what it is and to swap another battery in...and im buying a pignose lip off a member of the forums

 

Ill try and call Jimmy today about that mirror.

if he doesnt need it i'll bring it sunday.
