# Haku : 2. Daily news, still slow but I've done some proper upgrades to it that make it more appealing to look at (in my opinion.) MK2 daily club Also bought a old beetle from my uncle, He bought it a few years ago and planned on dropping a Porsche engine it. He used to tell my stories about when he was stationed in Germany in the 70's and that the Germans would tear up the Autobahn in stripped out beetles with Porsche enignes. Bone stock except for a Ford 1.6 CHT NA (Whopping 94HP) and Some steering wheel (idk what's from) This post was edited by Smurf (2015-08-01 15:39, ago) |

So I just picked up this beauty from the used car dealership...
As you can see she is in great condition, only missing the fuel cover which was not a problem since I was able to find one in the junk yard! I really wanted to put a nice looking spoiler on her so I looked all over eBay for one and was able to find a decent looking one for an absolute bargain! Now that she had all the body panels it was time to get her painted... She's looking pretty nice but as you can see she desperately needs some new rims and tyres. I have already found some nice rims on eBay for a decent price that already come with the tyres which is perfect! I'm going to pick them up now but it will be a 2 hour drive for me! |

Since everyone is working on their E36, I did some detiail work, too. It needed new brakes so I got some nice wilwood brakes all around. I removed the spacers (God knows why it had them in the first place) and added a nice Remus muffler I got for a decent price. (Sticker included) The only thing missing was a M3 badge which I got as well.

So I did some pretty serious work on the Silvia, first I painted the parts that had come on the chassis and then I had to make it drivable. I installed all new running gear as well as put some Borbet A's I had laying around on. At first I wasn't too fond of them but they've grown on me after leaving them on the past couple of days. I also got a hold of my buddy Alex who had some 240sx parts from his last build lying around, I threw him some cash for the front end. I've only gotten around to installing the lights and fenders for now. I also traded my Skyline Rolling Chasis for a Twin Turbo 1JZ engine, couldn't pass up the opportunity to throw that in this missile project.
Here are some shots I managed to take out in the parking lot by the garage I've been using. Should have the hood and bumper on next time you see it, maybe a few surprises here and there. I don't even know yet haha |

Sup, guys! Ricer e36 sold, one dude really liked it, like really.
Then l started to search for a another e36 or e30, but then browsing internet l found this sweet s14 offer came up, I could not resist. Its 95' 200sx, sr20det, completely stock but came with these 'stock car wheels' in gay color, soo if any one interested in them lm up for a trade. Since it has factory springs it looked ridicilous, soo changed springs. |

Plans : Stage 4 RB30 for the R32 , Performance built 13B-REW for the RX7 (both cars are for street racing duties) , turbo kit + exhaust on the Varietta's SR20 (you guys think 19s are too big for an S15 Varietta ?) , keep the M5 stockish (meaning exhaust/CAI/tune and no more). I'm kind of "slimming down" the list of my cars , especially because soon I'll start searching for a 90s Camaro and a Fox Body Notch (personal week-end/bolt-ons car the Camaro , customer's project the Fox). Tomorrow I'll post the ADs of a Mustang GT (black , 1990 , hatchback , heads/cam/intake/exhaust/125 shot , 18s on 265/35 street tires , H&R suspension and endless brakes) for 10k , an Alpina E36 B8 4.6 (blue , 1998 , my ex-cruiser , stock engine/body/interior , H&R Club Sport suspension , 19s Vossen on R888 tires) for 22k , and a 318i E36 (deep red , garage queen , intake/exhaust , 18" BBS RS with stretched tires , Accufab air ride kit) for 7k. |

*UPDATE ON THE 240SX*
So when I went over to pick up my new rims the seller told me about his shop / garage that specialises in suspension. He took a look at my running gear and told me straight away that it needed help! Of course I really wanted to upgrade everything but I could not really afford it, I told him this and he told me not to worry about the price as he could do a really good deal for me as I came on this super long trip to pick up the rims So basically we ended adding an entirely new suspension; VSTANCED TRAILING ARMS AND STRUTS VSTANCED COILOVER VSTANCED SPRINGS 6 PISTON BREMBO BRAKE DISK X4 But enough talk about the suspension and rims! Just as I was about to leave I spotted TWO Racaro evo ix full black racing seats which of course I instantly fell in love in. The seats looked like they have been in the same place abandoned for a long time so I was hoping he didn't need them and therefore could give me a good deal on them. Well, just as I thought. Turns out he didn't need them at all and so I was able to pick them up for a complete bargain! So as you can tell the 240sx is nearly complete, the only thing I am waiting for to arrive is some new after market taillights and headlights just to give the car a more "wow" factor Today a pretty crazy and expensive idea crossed my mind... What if I was to strip the cars body panels, sell them and rebuild her using much better looking after market panels. Yes this would be expensive but it could also be worth it because when I list it for sell I think it will attract more customers and raise the selling price. |

So, I got the wheels for the Supra, and I managed to get hold of a used Ben Sopra wing, so those are going on later tonight. I need to lower the car because of monster truck height. Good thing I have the Tein suspension xD That and I'm going to the local exhaust shop to grab me an exhaust tip! Cannot decide if I want to keep the pipe in the rear, or do some hood exit thing. Maybe even out of the front fender. I'll have to think about it. Pics will come later

Its been a long time since i visited here, had many cars go in and out of my garage. Currently i found this pretty cheap so this will be my project which i will be selling once its done properly and buying another car. Seems like it is good business.
To my surprise it has a RB26DE engine was pretty beat up once i got it but i lost my camera so i cant upload those pics. Next steps will probably repair the body and get the missing parts change the exhaust, probably new wheels too since i put these on only for testing as they are the ones i had laying around. Also need to do some testing and make sure engine is all good |

So i've finally completed building up the 240sx... Honestly I kind of regret replacing the stock body panels with the after market ones but I guess its too late to go back now. I'm not too worried about this anyways because I am sure that it adds much more value to the car!
I have already listed her on eBay, Autotrader and more but I have not received any phone calls yet. It will be sad to see her go but I am looking forward to the next project already! Also I'm hoping that she sells for enough for me to afford a car to use as my daily and have money left over for a new project Added 1 minute later: # Tom Diablo : What a nice 240SX, dude! Thanks! I am glad you like it Although now she looks a little different with the new body panels. By the way it is for sale if you are interested! |

@shiroq: Did you try clicking UNDER the springs from various camera angles?
@Ervi: Thanks but no thanks. I already have a S13 and I'm quite happy finishing the beetle so I have a bit more space in my garage. So this is the finished bug: I'll sell it like I've already said and then I'll take care of the R32, which serves as my weekend fun machine right now. |

So yesterday my turbo arrived in the morning its now RB26DET Evo. Pushing around 400hp not going to increase anymore its plenty.
Put on the new HRE P451 wheels too, they are 18" Next up will be the bumpers which should arrive soon hopefully tomorrow and then i can put them on oh right and the spoiler is missing. Most likely i will put on the stock spoiler. Already had interest from people and even some offers for the car will be selling this evo to fund my next project which is going to be quite big Debating about the colour also, not sure if to leave it white or maybe make it red |

So, I sold the 240sx today. Sad to see her go but the money I sold her for was good and left me with some nice profit. As I said previously I wanted to buy myself a daily and a side project, so I picked myself up a Vauxhall Corsa D VXR as my daily which you can see in the pictures below.
As you can see she is in a completely mint condition although you are probably wondering why she is pink lol. Well, I bought the car from my friends girlfriend since she said she has saving and once she sells her current car she will be able to buy herself something nicer. This was an advantage for me as I could tell she wanted to get rid of it as fast as possible therefore I got an amazing deal on it. First thing I'll be doing to her is getting her re - painted in a different colour. I was thinking maybe black, or white since I will be definitely buying her some nice black rims and so I think these will look good with the black or white paint job. Lastly, I think I may need to replace the engine in her because she currently has a Shimutshibu. Any idea's of what I could put in her would be appreciated! Also I will be buying a side project really soon! |

I'd go with a Honda B or K series engine.
-->Three weeks later<-- I've lowered the BMW with some nice Tokico D Spec coilovers. Damn, she sits low. I've ordered another sticker but it isn't here yet. |

->ONE WEEK LATER<-
So I finished making my daily look a little nicer. Added new aftermarket headlights and taillights, got her a white paint job, some sexy black rims, upgraded the suspension entirely and tinted the windows to give the car a more "mean" look. Oh and how could I forget... Now I know this is a bit of an over kill to put in a Corsa being used as a daily but I decided to go with Tom's idea and throw in a turbo charged K series xD (Just incase I need to smoke a ricer one day) |
