New 240, New Build. Drift/Auto X

[Future_gohan]

I'm so stoked about this sr20det. It's gonna be a beast!

[Idahos13]

So did it come with the bottom mount manifold or did u buy that already?

[Future_gohan]

a friend of mine stopped over and gave it to me sense hes been wanting me to get an sr sense i bought my 240 and now i did. lol

[Idahos13]

Ha thats way cool I like free stuff!!

[Future_gohan]

Yeah me too. hah

[Future_gohan]

Parts on the way

ecu/walbro/gaskets/sr red top valve cover/

still need:

electric fans/oil/flywheel resurfaced/turbo coolant lines/misc hoses and wires/battery relocation kit/

and that should be it for now...I hope to get this thing on the road except ONE thing holding me back..

THE FRAME SHOP!

I called the guy because he was a few days behind obviously( i should have my car right now...) and he got some insurance jobs or some s*** so he put my car behind them..so he said 2 weeks max for my car..I'm like..so I have to wait almost a month all together to do my car? wtf..

so due date for it to be back is the 22nd...i planned on putting my ka-t in on the 23rd. ugh

i hope your not gonna run that manifold with a gt30. that thing will never hold up. it will be fine with a t28 but i wouldnt run anything bigger. you should do the stroke and bore that primetime wants to do. lol sr24

I thought about that..is the gt30 really that big? lol (never seen one in real life. haha) what manifolds would hold it...

[Future_gohan]

It's pretty much done except the oil pan...I misplaced some of the bolts so i gotta take them off the other ka. lol woops.

Decided to clean my shed again as with the new engine and stuff it started to get out of control...seriously. lol



washed my 180sx door, i has 2 dents in it(small..will probably pop out) and that tape resedue has to come off, idk how though.. ugh

You have a lot of nice parts man, the KA looks complete and sexy ha good work man!

[Future_gohan]

yes it is. lol

But I'd so rather build that sr right now. lol

[Future_gohan]

rawr.

i got my walbro in today...at 6 at night..wtf? lol

[Future_gohan]

still waitin on my other stuff for the ka..tunes still not back..neither are my exhaust gaskets...

Umm..I just bought kyb shocks with sportline springs...full 2in drop.

Waitin on my car still...it better be worth it... -_-

[Idahos13]

Ya man the sportlines are great springs in my opinion they are on my 240 and I can only fit two fingers closely together above my tires. That valve cover for the SR is awesome very shiny!

[Future_gohan]

Does anyone know how still this setup will be with kyb shocks with the 2in drop on sportslines? I want it to be pretty stiff...

[Idahos13]

They are pretty stiff

[Future_gohan]

Tomorrow i'm picking up some 16" rims...shall look nice with the 2in drop.

[Idahos13]

Well I called him dis morning and my car is officially on the rack..he said he has already started on it..i'm going down tomorrow to pay him so i'll see and take pics of any work hes done. lol

[Idahos13]

I guess I still post. Thats good to hear so what kind of rims are they?

[Future_gohan]

I don't really know lol

A guy is giving me these rims which he said sat flush with the rear q panels and 7 new tires for my old ka..

[Idahos13]

Oh ha hopefully they are cool! lol have you seen pictures of them?

[Future_gohan]

Oh ha hopefully they are cool! lol have you seen pictures of them?

Yeah they're gunmetal black with a chrome lip...

[Idahos13]

sounds cool

[Future_gohan]

Finally an update with my car and not just parts? no way right. lol

My car is back and finally at my house and not 45 minutes away. My frame is straight, he did tell me to buy some new parts suspension wise..

They include lca, the brace up front(or a nismo power brace?) and a knuckle..













Everything is coming alone smoothly, even though i'm now a week behind what i intentionally wanted to be...

Also got my shipment confirmation. My ecu will be back in all tuned next week.

[1990-240sxsr20det]

Coming along nicely, waitin on those pics with the new wheels though.You got me curious

[Future_gohan]

Well I don't pay attention and I didn't realize those rims need tuner lugs. lol ugh

But I did test fit the rear and they stick out a little on stock height...so they should be decent. :p

[Future_gohan]

sneak peak. ;]

[Future_gohan]

Well as you can see I've been up to a lot sense I got my car back.

Sense I put my engine in yesterday I started to run my vacuum lines, lines for my gauges, put my radiator in, cut my intake pipe for my z32, put most of my harness back in, and started to look at my intercooler piping. lol

I'm still waiting for my flywheel to come in, and my 1 piece drive shaft in. then i can get the car running. I got everything else just putting it all back together slowly. lol

Expect many updates threw this week.

[Idahos13]

Its looking good man have you always had that racing seat? Because I do not remember it if you have lol, But its looking real good man when do you think it will be running? And we are still waiting on the pics of the rims lol.
