HB's l28et swap

[Harman850T5]

Nice work so far. If you think getting it out was fun, wait until you put it back in.

[Ghast]

im more of an interior slut.

I Love You!

And i promise you will NOT be disappointed with the seat belt set up.

When you ordered the headliner you let him know, sun roof or no sun roof right?

I am very excited for you, and this build! I like the way you think. So keep the updates coming.

Enjoyed this update, Thank you.

One Love,

Ghasty

haha im sure it will be a b**** gettin it in... i will employ the help of my cousin this weekend.

thanks gabby, your not one to have compliments too often

ghast- yup i got one w a sunroof, suprisingly they had one, same light cream color or tan that i have now. they even threw in a map light so it will be clean!!

i wont put it in until my floors are fixed, i got some spray from the tar flyin everywhere i dont want to get it all messed up

[Ghast]

Oi, You lucky bastard i went through quite a scare not knowing what that damn space was for (map light cutout). They are cool people huh? I love doing business with them. I was actually going to let you know if you did not get a map light. I am your man with the plan hahaha "5 dalla", Special price for friend with good taste.

Cant wait to see it all in the car!

My pictures came out crappy when i did mine i always use my cell phone.

One Love,

do u know what those black wires comming from the seat belt control go to?

my guess is the motor for the antenna.

i was looking into getting an s2000 antenna to make it cleaner idk yet, im holdin off to see what my metal work costs me

you mean the seat belt control box under the center console? where do the wires lead towards?

nice update, yeah teh dif can be a pain, when helping my friend danny with his, we dropped the diff kinda on his chest. his shirt had a dirt mark in the shape of an output shaft

[hbpignosePA]

ya the black ones... they run back towards the rear of the car... the rest of the stuff goes under the dash, so ill probably just remove as much as i can and cap them off for now (im too lazy to pull the dash before im ready to swap ) i removed everything seat belt related but i still have those 3 black wires... are they related to the grounds? or are they for the antenna motor. without that stupid control box i dont hear the annoying sound of my broken antenna trying to move anymore

[Ghast]

Sorry bro i am not really sure...

When doing my install i just unplugged things that needed to be unplugged and let them sit where they were installed.

When i mess with one wire i will be messing with all of them at the same time, Kinda like one big electrical step i guess haha.

One Love,

Ghasty

[White Comet]

i didn't realize the antenna was tied into that box at all. i'm sure theyre all grounds though

[hbpignosePA]

idk i started from the pass side and went around... but i already rewrapped it all up before i realized it

idk i might take it apart again when i get bored

[White Comet]

hmm well i removed everything going to the box, but i also got rid of my antenna

[hbpignosePA]

small update will come tonight, really a teaser on the diff.. i stripped a ring gear bolt so i gotta wait till i get one in (thursday hopefully)

this week is hell with projects/ exams since next week is break

expect more work then, and a big update plus a review of the helical diff

[Ghast]

Looking forward to it!

[PHeller]

HB,

can you send me an email at [email protected]

I'd like to try and network with local 240SX owners...or at least the cool ones.

[hbpignosePA]

alright i have everything disassembled ready to spray (tommorow its supposed to be 48 degrees so i dont have to worry bout the paint getting globbed up. heres the diff cover wire brushed and ready for paint.



and heres my diff and ring gear; waiting on a new bolt to finish reassembling it. thursday it should go together, and it should be up in the 50s so



stay tuned

[Future_gohan]

Where did you pick your dry ice up at?

[TRBOMOFO]

nice work mang

[hbpignosePA]

rutters HQ (its a dairy farm that runs retail stores)

im guessing some markets would have it, think fish markets

was about 2.20 a pound or 12.50 for a 5lb bag

i used 5 bags total. not the cheapest thing but it does the trick. i actually nicked the metal in some spots just using a chisel

I need to get some, but I'm not sure where to get it at. Doing it all by hand I've put about 4hrs into it and I have all the rear hatch area and some into the rear seat. Its horrible. -_-;

Once you bought it how did you apply it?

[hbpignosePA]

just open the package, spread over the area (WEAR GLOVES!! it will burn you if not)

you will hear it start cracking in a few mins..

let it "melt" or dissolve

go to town with a hammer and chisel

[Future_gohan]

Alright..I gotta find some soon, Maybe this weekend.

Thanks man. :]

[hbpignosePA]

nice work mang

thanks... i always liked your car, and i normally hate s15 conversions

got my ring gear bolt in. painted the casing will definately update tommorow when i reassemble everything. school kicked my a** this week, and im on day 7 of 10 of work with no day off

[AutoShadow]

Lookin' good, I'm interested to see how everything turns out.

[S13_love]

Yo hb, I pretty much did the same exact thing to my trunk area of the car not too long ago (used the black and decker power drill with a wire brush thing too.), anyways where would one be able to get dry ice? I tried taking the sound deaden...er(?) stuff off with the wire brush and that was a big mistake. Just sprayed sh** just about everywhere

Keep us updated on your progress ...im actually looking at this thread for reference if you couldn't tell already

[hbpignosePA]

got any farmers markets?

try that

or dairy farms

online they say grocery stores carry it but idk about that... walmart didnt have it near me, the employees stared at me like i was stupid

two weeks ill start cuttin out the holes and patchin them up.. my friend will have time then

[S13_love]

Wwwoooooowww reading pwns me, lol you already said where you can get dry ice and yet i continue to ask...i fail

Anyways i'll be definitely keeping track of this thread...for me, i plan on welding in the patch panels for the holes too in about a month.

[lilpiton]

look good bro Got i question did you finish putting in the s15 LSD? did you do it your self? i got one laying around in my room and was gonna give it to a shop to put it in but if its easy ill do it my self...Keep us updated will keep my eye on this build...

[johnnyappleseed]

dont know if this is a noob question but why do people take off the sound deadening?

[tramp_drift240]

dont know if this is a noob question but why do people take off the sound deadening?

because hours of work and 50 dollars on dry ice is a small price to pay for a couple pounds of weight loss.
