Hello Greddy and Saard Bov Time for Harness removalOut!Thats Me! tackeling the Sr harness.Out! Now I need a Engine hoist, and I need to send out my harnesses or I might tackle it myself with the Frsport Guide, what do you think? Ill update more tomorrow of all the goodies I have

[norcals13]

This should be good. Looks like the SR should be in pretty soon. What color of orange is that by the way? It looks pretty close to my Nova.

[nevertheless]

I wish it was the same color, the previous owner did somewhat of a matte orange or stage 1 orange, cracks everywhere orange peel, its not pretty.

Well here is my new Nrg wheel since my ebay one fell off while I was driving. Here are all my parts.

[240sxJoe91]

More pics of the car please....Looks great...

[nevertheless]

[Caveit77777]

Am I the only one that clicked on this thread expecting it to be about a diff?

That's why I clicked this thread haha. Just noticed that this thread is from 2008 so I'm hoping the car looks better now.

[nevertheless]

[JDMZ32]

swap is looking really good

[Philipio]

You need a new steering rack. Washing it isn't going to fix the leaking.

Looks like your car is coming along fairly well, congrats.

[nevertheless]

Thanks guys, What leak do you speak of?Got my exhaust today!Isis Dual.

[nevertheless]

The other day I started prepping the bay.I also took the head off, looks like this thing has been sitting for awhile Good thing i decided to do a rebuild.Head is in good shape.Started sanding with 120, Used a wheel on the strut towers because the Orange paint is rediculous to get off! Air craft remover and a scraper= tons of fun.one strut tower is complete.aftermath..

[S13 KID]

Hey nevertheless first of all nice car it looks so much better than the first few pics you posted.

Question:
Did you drill new holes for the license plate or did you use zip ties?...Maybe Im blind cause I can't tell

[nevertheless]

I drilled it in

[S13 KID]

Oh ok thanks for replying Im planning to do the same And just wanted to know if anybody was using zipties for it there is a guy in my area that did it.

[FinkenS14]

You desperately need some better wheels bro.

Exactly what I was going to say

Those wheels=

[nevertheless]

Yes, yes I know...Once I get this running, shes gonna get new shoes.

[nevertheless]

Its been awhile since i updated, Bunch of trial and error and waiting for random parts, but I made progress tonight.
Heres a couple pics. New oil Pump New timing kit. Had to get a new Camshaft sprocket too cuz it was missing a tooth.
Also had a second piston ring snap on me while trying to file it down. Cracked the girdle by over tightening it which means i had to get another set of bearings., lost the baffle plate. Finally done with Internals


I also had the block boiled so ill need to paint it again.
