-Purchased a brand new Megan Racing stainless steel catback exhaust but lost the pics of the day i got it in the mail because my phone had to be reset :/
-Decided to remove the tint of the tail lights only to find that half of it wouldn't come off of the center piece, so I re painted that but left the tint off of the actual tail lights.
-Bought a Carbon Fiber hood, then decided I didn't like the hood on my stock 240. I'll wait until i get a swapped motor and a bodykit with paint job.
-In November 2010 the KA blew, meaning it would sit in the garage from Nov. 2010 - Apr. 2011 where it would get a KA24de from a 1997 S14 240sx and a set of 18" XXR 962's (one bent rim). I acquired some random aftermarket sideskirts and 2pc. rear bumper painted in primer black. Still have never put the kit on the car.
-The estimate for the back rear body work was everywhere from $600-$1,000. My friend's dad did it for $300 which included paint.. Looks amazing now!
They day i get the car back from him I rearend a woman who cant drive in the rain and merge onto a roundabout. Pulls out then slams on her brakes half way in. This is the ensuing damage.
-Then I got a flat tire.. only to find out that my spare tire was worse. Because the front end is lowered on a donut, and the rear isnt lowered at all this is the beautiful wheel gap. I cannot wait to fix this.
-Just replaced the battery in December.
-Jan. 28 I bought 4 new Hankook Ventus V4 Concept tires with 215/35R18s in the front and 225/40R18s in the rear. Need an alignment still because apparently 2 of the tie rods are going bad and need to be replaced: the passenger's side outer tie rod end and the driver's side inner tie rod boot. The parts cost $35-- to have them do it it is $250-- o_O
Im new to wrenching on cars so my girlfriend's brother-in-law is teaching me how to change tie rods, then doing the Lowering Rear Springs and Struts.
I just bought a set of headlights, only using passenger side if someone needs a driver's side complete assembly. Am also buying a replacement fender. All I will need is a front bumper so if you have an aftermarket front bumper or OEM Chuki bumper willing to let go of lmk. I also should be getting my latest package from Enjuku on thursday... 180sx Kouki "Type-X" complete tail light set!
I really want to swap an RB20/25 into it but I may change my mind and go SR depending on if I want to do a Type-X replica or not. I would like to get a full 180sx Kouki Type-X aero kit, but that could very well change into a different kit. Oh and don't worry I plan on painting the body kit before having a professional fit it to the car (unlike a lot of ricers in Columbus/Cincinnati). I also need to get my windows tinted. I wouldn't mind a paint job but that wouldn't be for at least two years. I havent decided whether to do drift events or auto-x. Well see.
Had a ton of pics but idk how to get them to work :/
