I will need your Moses abilities

ok awesome man. thanks.

in spite of said 3/4" size leak, i did a few hot laps of my street, but it didnt wanna go past 2k rpm (no its not a maf issue nico, its the damned leak). but throttle response feels good with the short ram intake piping and she drives great. exedy organic ftw for a daily. the ebay 3" catback/delete pipe sounds great so far... but is slightly raspy. oh well...

coils feel AMAZING over bumps/etc even with my eyeballed crap alignment. soooo much better than Ksport crap. diff is gonna take getting used to, but feels solid.

tomorrow i will try to remove the egr pipe threaded portion which is rusty-ish... or just crimp it off and jb weld the small seam. either way... she should be running pro by tomorrow.

i honestly have never enjoyed driving a car at <2k rpms so much as i have today... my baby runs...

TOM POST THE VID....

and you are definitely welcome to come down and chill... or we could come up that way. some nicely built S-chassis down here... we are a rare few non-ghetto 240 owners in this area. we build em right... mine's low and slow... but its all ready for a boosted CA in the coming year or so... so its all good

im not going to threadjack you but ill probably shoot u or WC an email come may

I took em on my cell phone and I have verizon, I use the website for picture/message uploading if anyone can give tips I'll post em!

The diff is sweet haha! some fun **** to listen to. The Tomei sounds PISST when you're breaking it in .

I'll be over 2morrow morning w/ the grip wrench and gorilla lug key.

Great success! Another amazing project near complete man.

You can already tell when u ride in it that this thing is a bat outta hell.

tailout240, thanks man! its a crazy good feeling to have this thing so close to perfect...

seat is a buddy club spec seat. if you are over 160lbs... then you need the XL version... mine is the standard size and i barely squeeze my narrow arse in there. but i love it. fixed back ftw. it weighs NOTHING. its retarded light...

your car is coming along nicely man. get it done and drive on out here lol

btw, exhaust is 2.5" or less off the ground... frame rails are at roughly 3.25" all the way around... before i slam the front some more. then alignment... my rear camber is ridiculously negative so that i could fit my wheels before i rolled/pulled. now im all rolled/pulled and ill be set for clearance. looks great. did it with a sawed-off baseball bat, no heat, just a plan of attack and two patient friends to roll the car back and forth. perfect roll/pull, no buckling, imperfections, etc. ill post some update pics later today (its nearly 3am now) possibly with a real camera this time lol. no more phone pics

sorry i cant satisfy you, jeff

we all ready rolled one side on my car. and we used a hammer and mallet. be we are doing full body wot so if we make dents in the out sire we just bondo over them.

i am looking at getting sparcos. i think it would be nice if they were recline able but that means they sit alot higher. cause they will be bottem mount.
but we will see i need to at least get one fore the drivers side so i am held in place while cornering.

lol u must be a proud man

she should be up and running tomorrow for sure... jb weld is setting right now for the exhaust mani patch so i didnt want to rush things, id rather let it fully cure. also, i may have to double check that i reconnected the maf wiring on the ecu, cus i used to have an SAFC2 in there, but mister didderson needed it to finish his swap with his crazy N60 maf. so i need to make sure that everything is kosher there.

this morning i installed my PBM solid front tension rods, jonnie fraz power brace, and lowered the front of the car, and rebled the brakes. its been a productive day. just waiting on the nardi now... and my shift knob. they both make driving easier.

Of course! I had fun today just seeing it. It will be even more fun seeing it driving!

Yay!

what is this. i must know. something like the nismo powerbrace?

there is no trap. only free candy.

gonna fire it up again tomorrow night. everything going well... ill be driving it daily come thursday. also, i need to pull my pbm rucas off and rethread them. i realized that i didnt thread them in equally as per the pbm thread on zilvia and that can cause problems. thats one of those DOH moments. so a little more work tomo. oh well.

give me some freaking feedback nico lol. i wanna hear what you think, questions, etc.

doing figure 8's in the parking lot breaking in the diff.

We had a fun run last night since the car is legal now. Funny thing is the only thing that went wrong is greeneyes here forgot to tighten the clamps on the fuel line hoses at the fuel pump lol. That's the only real problem we ran into. Good times!

props for the sweet. pics. i am such and amature at taking pictures. need to get some more practice in.

ill draw a diagram with MS paint sometime or something. i think there is a write up on zilvia or fresh alloy about doing this tho... searchy searchy?

cause i am in need of blinkers for there.

i dont get why people black out there license plates numbers because driving down the road every one see them any how.

Also, someone could look up the tag numbers and find the car and steal it.
