V$ Kazerns street car builds

Kazern

Hey guys Im Leigh Im 21 from australia and I work the usual 9-5 painting cars for a living at a local bodywork's usually just painting boring everyday cars But on the occasion i get nice cars which is why i have decided to build a nice car and do a build log here so ill upload progress as i go.
Ill post a little later on if i can find a car and get it home today.

Cool. I suggest getting a nice Nissan S body or a MX-5, but you can do whatever you want. If you need help let me know.

Kazern

im going to build a onevia i think so ill get started on looking for a s13 soon

Kazern

alright finally after weeks of searching im on the way to pick up my next car that i will be building hopefully it turns out as clean as it looks Fingers crossed

Kazern

alright got the 240 in the shop and here is how it sits as of now as i just bought it it cost me 7.500 v$ and yes has been crashed but it appears mostly cosmetic damage and it still drives fine also removed the hood and left line after i took this photo

Kazern

so the 240 has been slowly getting work im down about 3.8g into it and its still missing body parts sadly but im on the hunt for parts

Kazern

getting the 240 back today should be complete exterior wise

Mikingo

Mikingo

Kazern

a mate told me about a friend of his hording all kinds of s chassis cars and he said he would hook me up with a meeting at the place so i can look at some parts for my beast so im driving there in a little while and then hopefully later on tonight ill have another update of parts and fun

Update
this guy is showing me a s14 as my mate told him i love them he said he had one cheap thats fairly complete minus headlights and minor things here or there

Added 7 minutes later:

i think ill deffintly buy i its 7k which is overkill for me to buy a car usually but ill see how i go for budget after i have it all home and shit

Bro, that color in your 240 is amazing, I had never seen that color in that car.. Cool Project, keep working 🙂

Kazern

my 240? i own 2 technically im guessing your talking about teh black one just the sun reflection

Kazern

so i have uninstalled the ls3 out of my s14 and have the 2jz almost running in it im just waiting on a 02 sensor and a intake pipe which my mate is bringing over later and i dont want to go ls3 in the 240 because well its just not my style and i still have the 2jz mounts in it so i want to 2jz turbo it

Added 15 minutes later:

the 240 looks sad engine less and the body kit is off because of the engine coming out

Kazern

so a kind of little big update i sold the orange 240 for 13.500 and now im just focusing on the s14 for the time being hopefully ill find a cheap daily soon maybe a 34 4 door or something but untill then i guess ill borrow a mates car as the s14 is going through some changes i picked up a cheap turbo kit for 2,5 everything included im currently testing out space etc as i dont know if i can fit my piping without cutting the bay
here is the last shot of the 240 before it left

and here is the s14 i think the piping should clear but i may be wrong

Kazern

well the s14 isnt going aswell as planned its been stickered which means it will not see the road without alot of work im thinking of trading for a 240 hatch

Kazern

so after searching and searching i found a mostly stockish 240 hatch its sadly sr20de but its registered and a good base and he offered cash my way so im going to view the car im taking the s14 on a trailer we have organised it so i can keep my plates if i do go ahead with the deal ill have an update soon if i get the 240

Added 1 hour 20 minutes later:

So i did the trade and got 3.5V$ my way as it is a 20de with a few issues but im happy with the trade i get to stay on the road and he gets a sweet ass track car

here is a list of the current mods i know of

cheap coilovers
crappy wheels
front lip
ebay brembo brakes

list of cons

its a de

looks nice, stoked to see what you're gonna do with it
also that SR mod looks neato

Added 2 minutes later:

plus if you want to trade the type x front bumper, I got a sharknose one with a plastic lip, I can pay the shipping. It's unpainted but I got it wrapped in Champagne Gold as it's a stock 240 colour

Kazern

do you possibly have a pignose bar? I am trying to find one for my 240 im also trying to trade the wing skirts and pods for other parts to suit the 240

Added 50 minutes later:

So i have taken the front bar win pods skirts off my 240 and prepped it for a few minor mods its sitting in the workshop for a day or two getting secret things done and im going to look at a car today as a more suitable daily driver
so here is some pics of the 240
