Disaster budget build. Update 12-27-10

[Xdisaster240sX]

well...Meets have been going on for awhile now. People used to drag down rt40 but the cops said if they stop we can continue meeting. Now...more and more kids have been coming and racing their parents cars and 4 wheelers. We cant do s*** around here. When a cop sees a car with an exhaust they think theres goin to be a race. This city is really f***ed up.

[Bumnah]

Are these meets @ Metro? When I was in high school I used to go up there for street races all the time. I thought they finally stopped the street racing @ Metro.

[Xdisaster240sX]

No, Its at Pepboys on rt40 in white marsh. It sucks

[White Comet]

you have the right to assemble but if you're on private property thats another story

[Xdisaster240sX]

I saw this in another thread and I liked it alot. Who ever did it, Thanks man. I dont think mine turned out half bad.



Heres a pic I took the other night. The ***hole who had this car last welded the cat flanges together. so we had to cut it off to get the straight pipe on.

Nice dude, good deal on the dash.

The cluster looks great. Did you swap the needles or paint them?

[Xdisaster240sX]

Thanks, I swapped them with needles from a 02? Sentra.

[safin]

good progress

i never thought about swapping needles

[Xdisaster240sX]

Got the springs on. Its not slammed but it got lower then I thought it would. What do you guys think?

[zach-Ka]

Looks good. I will be getting these springs also.

[Gcustoms]

beautiful... looks alot better than the pignoses we have around here... spray bombed orange, exhaust mounted incorrectly so it melts the rear bumper, headlight sidings removed, cut springs to lower, etc, etc, etcontario should have more ppl like you who spend the money and take the time to do it right.

[Xdisaster240sX]

Thanks alot guys.

[hbpignosePA]

looks clean man

especially for a northeast car

[stevo180]

Just picked up a 300z VLSD. Now I gots to clean it.

[Xdisaster240sX]

Well...I havent undated in awhile s here it is.

I put the 300z Diff in with the j30 axels. I also redid the interior. I know many of you dont like the cloth i chose but I didnt have much choice and now I really like it.

I got blue LEDs to put in the gauges.I pick up a set of XXR 002s. Now I need to roll the fenders

[Doya]

Interior is sick

[Xdisaster240sX]

update...

I fixed my rust problem.

[s13 iDRIFT]

looking good!

to me, if you wanna get low with springs i think megan is the way to go! i loved mine!

[240sxJoe91]

Very nice, cant wait to see more..Soon my hatch will look like that cause im also doing some bondo work on my car..Cant wait for more updates

[amakadius]

Heres some updates. My freakin awesome wife bought be a mint set of S14 seats while I was at work. I put them In today. I finally got my testpipe in the mail ( Week late). Im going to go put that in shortly. Let me know what you think.

i am getting rid of my s14 seats in a few months how much did yours cost?

[Xdisaster240sX]

Well...Next week will be when I put the car away and start tearing her apart. Here are the plans. Im going to start buy gutting the interior and reupholster most of it, getting rid of the pink. Black carpet and new gauges. I going to go all out on this one. Im looking for a s14 dash or may even do another RHD swap. We'll see. Next Im pulling the KA, painting the engine bay black and dropping the CA18 in. If I can afford it, I would like to paint the car that new Scion XB green. What do you guys think about this color?

[93coupe]

I dig the color. A lot.

[Xdisaster240sX]

I wanted something that looks good on a pignose other then maroon, or black. I really rarely see colors that i like. Im not changing the front bumper, I like that to much cause everyone hates on it. lol

[240sxJoe91]

I'm trying to get lowering springs for my birthday in May...How are these working out for you? I either want Tein or Megan, what was the drop amount?Thanks

[Flicktitty]

i think that green would look pretty damn good on your car, i say do it!

nice build.

[OM3GA]

I thought you said you ordered an ISIS Test pipe.

That is not at all what you received.

[Xdisaster240sX]

I found a cheaper testpipe on ebay and saved like 20.00

The springs dropped my car a good 2" all around. once they brake in and loosen up their awesome.

[maxima0-60]

Yea man I noticed that there are plenty of civics around rt.40 all riced up with their crappy exhausts thats probably why i don't even try to go to any of the meets. I see the car is comin along nicely
