going to get the title tomorrow and the car on Monday. I want to keep it but may have to fix it and sell it. My roommate is being a dick about me having 3 cars when he gets home because he will have 3 cars (2 of which don't run and one is a shell on Jack stands now that the engine is going in his only running vehicle) but I'm not the home owner and I'm getting a good deal on living here, so I don't have a leg to stand on. I have until summer to fix/ drive it. then it will go for sale unless I can find somewhere to store it that isn't a storage place.

 

Didn't work on my seat this weekend. Been dealing with buying and trying to get this home.

 

He said it's hot cammed, and been running rough since his friend did a tune up on it (including changing the dizzy) So I'm guessing the timing is off.

 

Nice seats

 

LOL that makes me feel even worse about not finishing mine yet. but yeah, nismo seats, haven't priced them yet.

 

Same ones that I have. Come up with something fair and I might want them. But mikester also wants a set.

 

idk, we'll see if I can get it running right first. If I get it running right, I'll need to trade for seats. but if it turns out to be a basket case like it's looking I'll sell them out right.

 

I wish I would have found this before I committed to the swap in the 95. much rather have a no ac car be a vert.

 

I hear ya. I do have the seats out of my 91 hatch. So keep me posted. Looks like I'll be picking up another hatch here in a few weeks. My wife decided she wants one. Lol

 

Now all that's left is the bottom piece and a couple more hog ring bars.

 

Now thats some sexy shit there.

 

Holy shit cole, that looks awesome. I'd pay you to reupholster my rear seats if you lived closer lol

those seats are fresh. the best part is, they will stay fresh forever because no one can fit in the back seat hahaha

 

thanks guys... I've been fucking up everything I've tried lately, it's about time I got something semi right. I already got someone wanting me to do his wife's bmw. and he saw it in person, but then he said "I don't need perfect, but the lowest quote I've gotten was $1600" so it's not perfect, but I double stitched so I can guarantee they'll be durable lol.

 

Brought the vert home... Well, not home. I brought it to my nephew's since my s14 is sitting next to a fox body mustang, I figured my s13 should sit next to an old mustang.

 

It looks really clean. Have you gone through it all?

 

Just about 10 minutes. Its missing bolts everywhere. Tried to start it, but it just kept cranking. Then I noticed the dizzy was missing a bolt lol. 1 headlight works, tail lights dont, the DS fender harness has been sloppily reran through the engine bay, the windsheild wipers wont turn off, godspeed coilovers, suspension arms. short shifter. Digital cluster that apparently doesnt work, supposedly the original cluster is in the trunk that the trunk lid won't stay up... and the wing is missing a bolt/nut. Dash is pretty cracked. The pillars where the seatbelts are supposed to go between the windows was cut off and harnesses installed instead. Basically it looks like it's been owned by at least 1 retard, possibly more. But for $600, I can't complain. Will update rust status later... It was cold and I didn't want to get on my stomach to check.

 

Short video of it driving... It's unreasonably loud. May be up to trading someone for some stock exhaust, if they're into the whole loud slow car thing. Still have yet to get up under it and look at the condition of it.

Probably just going to start rewiring things tomorrow. Found about 13 relays laying around the car. Hooked up all the switches I could find and checked fuses. Random hot wires everywhere not hooked to anything, wires spliced 3-4 times within a couple feet just twisted together and taped. A couple look like wires from a house lamp or something. Need to start with the tail lights, got the brake lights and rear turn signals working. Then Then I'll do the top because there is power at the switch, but it won't move the top, yet the top will move when we hook a battery straight to it. Need to delete the washer sprayer wiring because I don't have a res, and everytime the wind blows it triggers my wipers to wipe a couple times. That problem is in the cluster of wires that look cut/burnt next to the fuse box under the hood lol.

It looks like a car again

I don't want to wash it because I've found human hand, raccoon, dog, cat and I believe goat prints on it lol... That and all the live wires that need to be cleaned up.

 

got a total of one thing done today out of the 10+ things on my list of things I wanted to accomplish.

Got the car home. Didn't have time to do shit to it but park it. Then I had go to do things for others.

It's fun to drive, but it will never be nice. So it'll be a beater until I sell it, trade it or finish my s14 and turn it into a missile. If missile, it will be Ka-t. I figure I'll just keep both cars in this thread instead of making a separate one.

The rattling noise is the bottom of my FL fender attached by zipties at the bottom because the bolt holes were too rusted to get a bolt in and I haven't gotten around to drilling it and using a nut and bolt.

Idle only fluctuates about 100rpms, but it's slow to fall after revving. Hard to start on cold start. Going to see if my fuel pump and MAF sensor from the zenki will work.

Hey Zig, how do those nismo seats come out? I was going to take them out so I could remove the carpet and start cleaning wiring, but the dang things are on the floor with no visible bolts. I can't even get a finger under the front.

 

Not sure on your's. I would think if they are that low they might be bolted from underneath. I got the planted seat rails for mine. When you do figure it out let me know and take some pics if you don't mind. I'd like to get mine lower.

 

I'm not sure I'm getting rid of them. They're growing on me. I'll jack it up tomorrow and see, thanks.


Looks like the MAF's wont interchange. But haven't found a definitive answer on the fuel pump.

 

Do a fuel pressure test. If your in spec everything should be good.

 

Oh I'm just wondering for the seats I have. Even with the super low rails without sliders my head almost hits the roof.

 

Don't mind the fact that it's still filthy.
Back.

front
It's so tight I can barely get my finger in there.

It's still way smaller than my s14. My head doesn't hit really, but there's less legroom.
