we need to get the driveshaft in while we still have the back lifted up
mazdarati

03-20-2008, 03:31 PM
we need to get jason to fix that huge picture problem, its too hard to see them and it takes a long time to load. maybe if it could scale them down to fit on most monitors. anyways....my contribution:
caster, caster, and more caster
tiens are back in
slammed
caster much?
almost there
poor baby :'(
Cattman
03-20-2008, 10:40 PM
So FUCK IT is alive. she purrs...take that back she screams open header.
Things youve missed....
Dropped gas tank/cleaned/left to dry/reinstalled
new fuel lines/ pump
put a good hood on her
swapped KYB GR2s w/ Tien coilovers from red car and a few other goodies
swapped brakes from red car
installed red cars header(sounds insane off idle) but "legal sounding" at idle...may leave it
found gremlin that was keeping her from starting(thanks to Cattman)
run it and bled cooling system
wired fans although that was a fail :(
scrapped tar off interior floorpan
I know weve done more but thats just what comes to mind. Its turning out to be a really clean car and I think you all are going to be very suprised when you see it. You better be damn you!!! Weve put alot of hours into getting this done fast and not half ass work. :)
Tommorow is....
Finish scraping tar off floor
clean inside
paint inside
swap dash/door pannels/console/misc. pieces
call bodyshop and find out what primers and such are compatible w/ their paint
Thats about all...Ill post some more pix when I figure out how to make them a little smaller. Driftimage.com needs that feature *hint hint jason*
mazdarati
03-21-2008, 06:46 PM
things you've also missed:
-finding out carl had skateboard wheels (cheap ones at that) for bushings in his struts
lol :D
ill see you guys in a bit, i can't stay that long tonight though. my friends are playing at the rabbit later on. If you feel like taking a break from the car for a while i would recommend going with me. but if not i understand, i mean the car has come a long way and there isn't a whole lot left to do
p.s. did you get to "click the button" yet ryan?
no, matt stayed here late and lizzard is in town
Gumbo
03-22-2008, 01:26 AM
hey the big picture problem isn't a me thing. It's a YOU thing you gotta resize it on your side. ;)
Floor is scraped, need to figure out where a short is. ready to paint inside and install interior.
Janxtons 300zx is fixed!!! yay, Im stoked. gotta mount 2 tires tommorow and then shes out the door. fuck yes!!
Carlita
03-24-2008, 11:37 AM
thank god that thing is finally gone i hate that thing. it really sucked pulling the whole drive line off it and reinstalling it.
Hatch goes to shop tommorow for final work then hopefully off to the paint shop!

03-24-2008, 11:52 PM
just out of curiosity what rear toe link is that and how do you like it.
cheap ones. I got them in trade for a debt so well see how they hold up.
silvia face one the way, cant NOT have sileighty (just my thing) 30mm rear wide fenders on way also. might as well b4 I paint right? cant decide on fronts just yet. may just bullfrog it for awhile til Im not broke. Also means I need new wheels so she doesnt look retarded. Any wheel suggestions under like $150 a rim that arent sportmax? I have 20mm spacers on rear that may or may not stay. The advans + spacers arent going too be wide enough. Kinda sucks because I have KA in this one and I cant go TOO wide but I need a 0 or - offset to pull this off. Limits my options unless I get like Diamond Racing wheels made to my spec but those are on the heavy side....also not good.
pete240
03-30-2008, 12:36 PM
There are these I know you said under 150 but these are way over. You could also get some rota grids. The 4 lug thread on zilvia should be inspiring. http://www.zilvia.net/f/showthread.php?t=75411&page=2&highlight=lug+wheel+ thread

Wheels on the way, No kit. I have the money but the one I want went from cheap to $1400 in 2 days so its a nogo for now.

very very sexy fit on that spoiler now where are the pics of the heart of the beast ;D
Ill take some. One of the LS1s is assembled and used for mock up. The other one is on the stand being built. All new rings, bearings, gaskets, ect. Lingenfelter blueprinted oil pump. Heads have been machined, Z06 valvesprings. 01 Z06 Cam. Should be over 400hp safely. I may take a little extra time and save up for an accusump system just for insurance. The plan was to put it in the glossy black hatch at the house but my flat black car is already all race car'd out so I dont think I want thrash that nice of a car(yet)
since........this thread is never going to end/I win.....Ive decided to sticky this lol
Cattman

haha you have a bbiigg ego my friend. lol wtf are you doing? reboost
y start a million threads about shit I change my mind about all the time?
I know, I need to
Reboosted, finally.....
Sr20?
So....I put myself in a bind thus MAKING myself work on the LSjuan project
Pulled the motor out of the sileighty tonight. 5 speed swap goodies installed on the nice black hatch. Would have had the motor in and running but I ran into a couple problems and am short a motor mount. I hate stupid BS like that that hold you up. Should be in tommorow, will be drivable when I find another open diff or VLSD.
Im buying that car I showed some of you last night. I just talked to the owner. If you know which one it is....Shhhhh!!!!! Dont tell!

even if u make them urself thats how they look , no body said by them , lol
Looks decent. If I do decide to make my own pipes this time I want to go stainless and tig em. The other bozo pipes were cool when I made them but not up to par on quality and now the welds are rusty...
Cattman
07-26-2008, 12:55 PM

we shouldve traded SRs it was too late by the time i decided it was a good idea lol
y do you say that now? you want a reliable motor?
matt, lets trade sr's. Your car will run like its suppose to and you can go with the djetro like you want to and I can get that notchback up and running right and build it like it should be built!
So....I abandoned my sr project and picked this stuff up today from Daft Innovations...
