# couger389 : Sold the suspension and decided to take everything else off, painted it back to the original color. I would be lying if I said I wasn't having second thoughts but its too late now.

Already put in some work after buying the GR from Couger389, car will be a daily.
Can already see how much care Couger had with the car, interior is immaculate and so is the body.

First time buying any car newer than 10 years for me.

Did a couple things. First things first, the stock exhaust tips had to go.



I also test fit a Chargespeed front bumper to see if I like it or not.

Also in case you were sad about selling the subaru, look how happy he looks



More progress will be shown as it's done.



MX5 still for sale, want it gone. $4000 bottom line.

Put in more work that I felt needed to be done.

First thing, top mount intercooler wasn't getting enough air to the engine.



Front mount installed.



Took it for a drive to my friend's place, engine is staying much cooler now.

Colour matched the bumper.




Then I did what needed to be done.



Coils are fitted.

New wheels? Yes.



Also first speeding ticket with the new car :D :D :D



Probably going to stay like this for quite a while, it is my daily. Might lower it another half inch but still waiting for the coilovers to settle in.

Got a set of skunk2's for the AP2, it has a nice drop but I may take out the helper springs to get just a little bit of tuck in the rear. I also got a catback fabricated up with a custom low angle boso tip. a small universal muffler keeps this car from being too noisy

So I did what I said I wouldn't and bought two cars, it was an interesting day I'll say that for sure...

So first I stopped at this elderly mans house to look at one of my dream cars a FC3S, this thing was MINT condition and he even did some insane engine work. 13B-REW street ported. Other than that it was stock. Put the wheels from the scoob on for now. Bought for $6,000



Now this is where it got interesting, I was heading back home after buying the FC and out of the corner of my eye I saw what looked to be a fairly clean W102. So I pulled into the driveway and knocked on the door. Sure enough a kid answered probably his first car. Anyways we looked at it and it had a NA8C swapped in it for who the fuck knows why, after I got done listening to his dumbass JDM as fuck drifting stories I asked him how much he wanted. He said $8,000 and I just about smacked him, you could tell the whole car was half assed so I told him $4,500 and I would let him drive it when I was done (Lies XD) he agreed and i drove it back to the shop and prepared for the worst.

I was fruitlessly searching Craigslist for 3 weeks and finally found a guy parting out a yellow 1970 Barracuda 440. So I hopped in my Sierra and lucky enough he still had the whole front end. The car was rear-ended pretty bad. He already sold the 440 big block so I still got no engine. I bought the front end and it took another day installing everything. I also put in the steering wheel I got from couger (I hope you don't mind the tiremarks). My grandpa came around, saw the car and was like:"Is that my old Cuda?!" He was super-happy seeing it back you can't believe it.

I know I've been posting here quite a bit, :))

But!

I wanted to let you guys know I'm parting out my 240Z. Don't want to, however the frame damage is much worse than I originally thought, and I don't have the money or time to fix it. It's an amazing car and all the bits on the body that weren't hit are in amazing shape, but the chassis is bent all the way through.

Full accuair V2 air suspension kit $1200

RB25DET; HKS stage 3 cams, fuel rail with 100 Octane capability. brand new spark plugs, pistons, seals. Custom fabbed turbo exhaust manifold and exhaust system straight piped to left rear fender, big single HKS stage 2 turbo. Intercooler is damaged but the rest of the engine is close to immaculate. 6 Speed Manual.
$4000

Custom Carbon rear diffuser $350

Rest of body parts you can negotiate with me or buy in bulk,

CCWs (2 17x9 and 2 17x10) on very new Kumho tires $950 OBO

Let me know if you're interested in anything else off the car, or the car itself.

As it sits now.

Long time no see!

Since last time, loads of stuff has happened. I started to sand down the s13 in preperation for new paint. Instead of going to my regular paintshop I went to Tom Diablo's friend Gregs shop. I began looking around the shop and I gotta say I'm impressed. There was a freshly painted 350z just chillin and the paint was killer.

Anyways I got the s13 painted. Well most of it. I'll show u what I mean.



Here you have it. I bought new sideskirts since the ones I had way too many zipties to even count xD. So I began sanding them down for paint aswell as the front bumper. FYI It's a BN-sport front bumper. I took of the front fenders before paint since I got told by a friend of mine that someone was selling a pair of vented fenders. There must have been a missunderstanding because when I got there they were already gone... And by that time the car was already at the paintshop going in to a paintbooth any minute.

I've decided to sell the car aswell. I felt like a neverending project to me so I put it up on Valolist and the day after a guy called. He wasn't interested in the car however the bought the 2j. So.... I'f anyone wants a rolling s-chassis hit me up. I'll part it out aswell.

Everything minus the 2j is left. Here is some facts about the car:

Wisefab front and rear adjustable controlarms
Tein 5.00' springs
Stock S13 shocks

That is just the suspension setup it has. Let me know If ur interested :)

If the 350Z didn't had an airbrush you've seen nothing yet. Greg is a wizard when it comes to airbrushing. He goes to a seminar twice a year or so. You really should give it a shot on your next project and you won't regret it :)

My rat golf is sort of fucked. There's a lot un-needed rust under the car, radiator messed up & I had a small accident with it. I guess I won't be riding it in some time now.
  • Trunk - it had euro trunk before all the time, but now I found clean US trunk for sale which I bought
  • Passenger door - Got hit by a van, door was so damaged I had to replace it. I put very rusty door which I found in junkyard.

    But fortunately, I found E39 M5 for sale for somewhat good price. It had been used as a drift car, so there are few scratches, dents & dirt. There are few electrical issues with it, what I have to find out myself... It has already adjustable coilovers (some cheap ebay), BB's RS Diamond cut (R18) with very worn tires.



    I bought a set of SSR Vienna Schnitt rims with 245/25 stretch (18"). Now I'm going to look what could I do with the suspension & then fix the bodywork.


    Added 8 minutes later:

    # Haku : Full accuair V2 air suspension kit - $1200
    Would you mind giving it away for 1000$ plus set of BB's RS Diamond cut (R18) rims?

    # Haku : Update on my S30!
    Started to work on my engine, pulled off the top end to find...
    5 out of 6 pistons working and corroded spark plugs.
    Replaced those and then went to work, as well I also relocated my battery from the engine bay.




    New HKS Cams, new bearings, as well as a new single turbo exhaust manifold that my friend custom fabricated for me, and a new intake collector with much better airflow than the old one. Next up, the remaining fuel was drained from the car and the fuel system was overhauled, now setup to run 100 octane (Previous only allowed 95 and 98)

    New turbo got mounted up with not much space at all.
    [IMG]http://i797.photobucket.com/albums/yy259/MrHappehFaic/NewDatsun3.png[/IMG

    Intercooler and piping after a lot of cutting and retrofitting



    Took bae out for a test drive







    Took it for a dyno run and I'm now pushing 405HP to the rear wheels on low boost. That's a significant increase.

    Next on my list was some exterior work. I wanted to get lower so I sold my 18 inch CCWs and purchased identical CCWs in 17x9 in the front and 17x10 in the rear.
    Then I had my friend working on a carbon rear diffuser for me which looked stunning mounted. Once I lowered the car I realized I would have issues with the OEM exhaust system I was running, so we fabbed up a new one that sat 2 inches higher, and then a custom side exit exhaust to give even more ground clearance.
    I took it to the mountains and ran it hard, while my friend took some pictures.





    I was having issues with the rear camber I was running (-6) and so I adjusted it down to -2.5 (Roughly) before taking it back out the next night.





    and then a deer ran into the middle of the road.



    It ran away afterwards, seeming nearly uninjured. My Z was not so lucky. Shit happens. Stay tuned for more progress.

    I lowered the E39, although it needs some spacers on rear & still a bit better fitment on front. On my way back home (got the Accuair susp) I took a bit bigger route, but it was much more nicer. When I had a small bump, rear bumper almost came off. Its "connectors" were broke because of the drifting by ex-owner, so I had to zip together...

    Pulled the 13b-REW always wanted to do a V8 swap for the FC, not sure what im going to do with it. I dont like rotaries all that much so it'll probably just sit in the back of the shop for now.

    Got my 964 front bumper in a few days before the little car meet, painted and mounted nice and easy totally changes the look of the car.

    I got to the lot everyone was gathering at and had a decent turn out. Some crazy and some stock looking a couple that looked like they wanted to fly, everyone was pretty tight lipped about specifics on their builds but was happy to talk about the basics, displacement, induction type, if they were using nitrous and we got to do some fun runs at an odd strip that wasn't an 1/8th or 1/4 mile might have been a 1000' either way we got to see who covered the ground faster.

    The RX owner said it was swapped with another type of turbo engine, it had a pretty hardcore suspension setup with staggered 17/18 inch wheels and pretty deep in the back this wing looked like it was ready for take off. I'd never seen one of these in person before nevermind such an extreme example the GT86 had a heavily tuned single turbo engine build with a massively wide stance and running the TRD front bumper for a FRS with a lip to match the rest of the kit. All the Skylines there had been imported and HCR33 looks pretty stock but wasn't willing to give any fun runs he was looking for 2k+ for a chance, the R34 was pretty similar to the Porsche for accelleration but had much higher top speed, the HCR32 was pretty much stock but had a GTR transmission and driveline. That little EG hatch was a lot faster at the track than I thought it was going to be front wheel drive and only 205's for tyres.


    I didn't get all the pictures from the drag track processed but I'll get them added when I do. The Huracan wanted to give the GT86 a go after seeing how fast it got down the track on me, and if he had managed another pass like that would have taken the supercar but couldn't keep the tyres from spinning.

    I'll give you $2250 if you can deliver it to me, North Valo. DM details on the car :D

    5K, if the engine is still good.

    My buddy is bringing it over right now, it was in his shop. Cheers :D

    # couger389 : Sounds good :)

    Sorry homie, the RB sold. I may have a lead on one if you're interested. It's an RB20DET, though. It would be $1900 stock, if you're looking to jump on it I'll pick it up for you and you can just pay me back for it. Also HERE'S a list of the differences between 20 vs 25 just in case you don't know before you buy.
