wow...you found some dirt on that girl....that quarter needs some work! You grindin all that putty out?

 

Yeah, I'm getting rid of that sh it. And i've been bending the body panel back in shape with a hammer.

 

Lol ill buy it from you lmao

 

what are your goals

 

damn, the previous owner needs to be shot

 

^ I agree. My goals are to someday, Drift it. But I know it wont be a while. and In the mean time. it's a project car.

 

I'm debating weather to get a Sr20det for xmas. or get a new front end.

 

get a front clip.. and kill 2 birds with one stone..:thumbsup

 

thats easy....SR20 is way more fun then a stupid bumper lol

 

No, I mean literally, From firewall up a NEW front end.

 

Nice project. I hope you can get all that putty sh** straightened out. And that front end looks nasty:eek4:. Good luck and I know how you feel being in school and all

 

Yeah, And I'm in autotech and a couple of kids are really close to me and they're like, "I'm not helping you" So I'm on my own. I know you guys have gone through this, But I haven't. :tears

 

wow...story on what happened to the front end?

It's possible to do this while you're in school.
Drift4life and I go to the same school and we've both got project cars being built.

ya it's tough working alone, but there's someone out there who'll be willing to help you, you just have to ask around.

 

Got a new exhaust. And come to find out, Theres no bolts going from the header straight to the old exhaust.. Straight pipe ftl. I have to take off the whole system to take the exhaust off. Sucks. Anyone got any spare time after xmas and want to come help me take out this old crappy exhaust and put on my new exhaust please let me know

 

What kind of exhaust is that? If I was you and I had a new exhaust to put on, I would be getting up at 6AM 2morrow morning and put that bad boy on!!!!!:embarasse

 

Well. I have to pull the exhaust header off. pull the whole straight pipe off. and get a cat converter. get the exhaust stud out of my brand (old 240sx) header and put that on, Then take the new exhaust, Get a converter, put that on the header and install. All which i DONT have the money nor the time for. So i'm asking if anyone wants to come help or something :/

 

UPDATE. Found out more problems while i was re wiring the front end.

Is it just me or does my whole front end look crooked?

^ Started to attempt to straighten out the front.

 

Wow that looks nasty bro... I would take that thing to a body shop and have it worked on by a pro:12dunno

 

well at least the exhaust looks nice :]

 

^LOL. Thanks.. TO bad i dont have a cat so that i can actually, install it.

UPDATE.

Sanded the front and rear bumper and preped it for paint.

Got camber?

 

Damn almost time for new tires.... The problems just keep stacking up dont they? Nice sanding on those bumpers BTW...

 

Haha, Not really. I'm pretty much almost done with the car internally *engine etc* I just need to finish a little things, "Rear end 1/4th damage, put my new exhaust on, buy a cat converter, Now i'm sporting steelies And i have like. 3 inches of clearance from the ground.

1. I made sure I pulled my timing chain guide off

Took off my wheels to bring to school and dismount them, and I took my friends steelies, Almost brand new tires with massive meat left on the tires.

Also, I pulled my rear spacers off. "Pepboys brand" And now I need to find someone who has some thick spacers (nothing more then maybe 50mm) So i can put them on. i want some flushness with my steelies
.
Next day I pulled off the rear tires and I'm still in the process of inspecting my brakes. And I'm buying some s13 rotors that are cleaner and fresher than mine are. (mine are pretty much fucked)

And, I have some slaves to work on my car

 

Nice bro, good to see your still at it and have some helpers.... Flushness with steelies? LOL... Lets here a sound clip of that exhaust!!!

 

ha, saw this car on MA240... cut out your front end, bring the car to me and I'll tube/tub it... that's about your only option!

 

I'll tube/tub it

Now that would make a sick setup!



So this thing runs?

 

Yeah, I've driven it alot of times. Just the auto trannys pretty fucked and I dont feel like spending a boat load of time / money to 5speed swap it, get all the parts required etc. And about the tub'd. how much we looking at?

 

A lot haha.
Honestly, if you're too cheap to do a 5spd swap then tube chassis plus tubbing is definitely out of your budget.

 

haha, what he said. it wouldnt be terrible compared to shops but it'd be more than a damn 5speed swap.

 

Anyone know how to get paint off a valve cover?

 

A strong laquer/paint thinner and wet sanding w/ 80 or 120 grit sandpaper would do it....
