Idaho Tuner's 240/|SR Build thread

[idahotuner]

Yeah, garage beats a carport anyday. That's a pretty sweet looking sileighty too.

yeah my dad did he restoration of the 35 plymouth in our car port.

but we have had the shop done since then so i have done all of my project cars in there.

[bloodsport]

that would look sick dude, but i for one wouldint do the hood black. just the roof

[wynnEZ]

I would agree on just the roof, the paint combo would look sick.

[idahotuner]

just the roof huh. i suppose that could be cool. hmmmmm.........

awwwww. well i got a little bit to decide. but that blue is sick. and i will do soemthing with it for sure.

so many desicions lol

[White Comet]

that blue is really nice, but yeah, dont black the hood

[cmoody2006]

Looking really good so far nice to see we're rockin the same calipers +10 lol I think your's will be legal and on the road real soon unlike mine.... blah you suck but its all good I'll have music in my 240. I love the sound of drained out music in the background of the 240.... But seriously did you just not want one so bad that you'd cover the spot up with gauges? lol That color would look sick on your car. I need to still find either a chuki front bumper or type x before mine can be in the paint booth. So I can't wait to see how your's turns out. Are you going to spray it yourself or have someone else lay it on?

[White Comet]

im pretty sure his day will be painting it

[idahotuner]

that blue is really nice, but yeah, dont black the hood

what about just the ridge i nthe hood. going down to the senter section between the lights.

Lol i will be making a custom cage and mounting my tero up under my dash inplace of my glove box. that way my passenger can change cds easier and i wont be tempted to try ad do it while driving. plu sit wil be away from the other things like my boost controller so people wont acidentally bump that while changing cds.

right now i just wantot get it o nthe rod and the cd player will come later.

im pretty sure his day will be painting it

yes my DAD is planing on painting it.

[idahotuner]

ok dokie got my new windsheild and molding kit today. it will go intomorrow.

hopefully get the front fenders all bolted together tomorrow too.

then will just need to do some wiring and it will be ready to drive in for an alignment.

Best of luck with the Window! I hate them

[idahotuner]

thanks man. my dad and i are pretty good at putting them in. so sould be fine.

[Kalypso]

Hey Idaho just passin through to start trouble and ask questions.

Maf sensors.

the z32 mafs are everywhere and overpriced, what other nissan infiniti maf sensors are equal to the z32

[idahotuner]

whats over priced? i picked mine up for 135 shipped and it was pretty much brand new.

the q45 is almost the equivelent. or the non twin turbo 300zx MAFsome use the j30 maf

[Kalypso]

135 is alot relatively - i see q45 maf's for as low as 60.

I thought that some MAf's have a limit to the max amount of Air pressure they can detect, which is why the z32 maf is most favored.

I wonder if there is a definite difference? between them.

there is also the n60 maxima maf. but I don't want to slap on something that doesnt work as well.

[idahotuner]

the amount of air pressure they can read is relative. the tt z32 is the best because it can go all the way up to like 500 hp. that means it can read up to the amount of air that the engine would need to produce 500hp.

now the others are good for about 350ish horse power. so it depends what your over all goal is.

[s13gebala]

i love your garage color(light blue)

id paint my 240 that color, well maybe a bit darker blue. and put black top hood sexy

[Kalypso]

thank you,

I used the post bodies search and found someone else who said the same thing.z32 maf is champ - cody used the cobra maf, thats worth a look.

I simply want to be different and effective, there are alot of MAFs that are overlooked.

i was going suggest the cobra one. but was thinking of just the nissan ones

[White Comet]

didderson is running the n60 currently, iirc thats the same as the na z32

[idahotuner]

^ correct.

well went ot install my windsheild today and the molding kit i bought had been sliced open and one of the corner peices was missing.

so we have to sind the kit bakc and have them send us a new one which sucks.

but we are nocking out body work and brake conversion.

[splintercell]

very thorough step by step build. im going to have to read every page on sunday. i did see page 38 w/ valve cover. i like

[idahotuner]

^ thanks man. i am getting ready for todays update.

[urcaptnspeaking]

Well whats keepin ya brother. I am wantin me some pics.

[idahotuner]

my windsheild sitting in its box unable to be installed for lack of a damn corner molding peice. spaldings is sending us a new molding kit.got my catch can and apexi boost control valve mounted. used to c clamps with a hold drilled though them worked great

and i pulled off my front rotors.and the dust sheild.popped the cap off, pulled the caughter pen, and too kthe hub off. easiest way to get the dust sheild off.and about the time i had finished doing that UPS pulled up with my new rotors. like clock work and conversion lines and brake padsold vs. newon the carcaliper on the cari am al ittle bit unsure as to how to load the pads into the caliper. well i know how to load the pads. but the metal peice that sits on the back against the pads can go 4 different ways.but i loaded it how it looked right. it will be easy to change if i need too.put the wheel on to see how it lookeddamn that huge rotor shrunkand my dad did body work today while i did brakesdrivers side fender bolted on and used rtv sealant to run a bead along the fender where it connects to the body.got the rear quater panels in the 1st layer of primerthen did some more body work to them

i am missing one brake line clip if any one has an extra one i am interested.

but over all every day we work on it, is one day closer to being done.

[White Comet]

you mean the clip that holds the brake lines? i've got a few i can hook u up with

[Kckouki]

Car looks good man.

I wanna see dis ***** finished.

[idahotuner]

you mean the clip that holds the brake lines? i've got a few i can hook u up with

yeah i need only one. please and thank you

[cmoody2006]

Looks good I can't wait to get my drilled and slotted 300zx rotor's in..... lol I like how yours turned out. Mine look pretty good but I've yet to take pictures of everything..... How much were those brake lines and where did you get them from I need a set I'm using the stock 300zx rubber one...
