New 240, New Build. Drift/Auto X

[Future_gohan]

Lol what do you think i'll be doing this coming weekend fool?

Last drift event i didn't bring the camera, my fault. oh well.

I will next week. :]]] and i'll be drifting all day till it gets dark so expect lots of fun s***.

[Idahos13]

I think your hatch will be able to pull off the silvia front!It looks prety good so far man.I'm definately expecting those vids!

[Future_gohan]

lol it better cuz i ain't going back to pop ups.

And i'll have some pics and vids from this coming weekend.

[Idahos13]

It will now all you need is some better offset rims, carbon fiber hood, and purple paint!

[Future_gohan]

lol my 18s are 18x9 +15.

But I'm not 5lug converted in the front, only the rear. cuz i'm poor and can't afford ichiba yet.

[Idahos13]

I thought you can use 300zx brakes?

[Future_gohan]

the brakes yeah. not the hubs. i need 5lug hubs.

[Idahos13]

Why cant you use the hubs?You could get some s14 5 lug hubs. Or can you not find any?

[Future_gohan]

The spindles are different on the s14, its i think 2mm bigger? so the hubs can't be used unless you use the whole assembly off an s14, which is the same as buying ichiba conversion hubs.

[Idahos13]

stupid 5 lug...So there is no stock 5 lug you can use?Eh I will just stay 4 lug, Are q45 brakes already 4 lug?

[Future_gohan]

brakes don't make a difference with the hubs.

I need 5lug, i got more 5lug wheels then 4 so its only smarter.

[Future_gohan]

I guess everyone learns, i'll never buy fiberglass fenders again, even if its dmax. The pass headlight bracket on the fender broke off, and the headlight bracket itself was already broken. so I had to mod a bracket for the fender and ziptie the headlight to the bracket.

atleast i got oem nissan headlight brackets new. courtesy nissan ftw.

[Idahos13]

Car's looking good man!

[Future_gohan]

still no hood :/

[Future_gohan]

[Future_gohan]

Went to the oval sunday and got some seat time i guess. I picked up an origin bumper and decided to put it on. lol I don't care at this point i just drilled holes in my already destroyed fenders and zip tied it on.

[Future_gohan]

finally did an oil change with synthetic. royal purple ftw. Fixed my oil line leak. put some more zipties on the bumper. not done yet. Today isn't over yet. lol

[Future_gohan]

Summer isn't over yet guys!

[Future_gohan]

So its offical in about a month this build is done. I just bought myself a vert and i'm going to put a silfront on it. slam it put my ka in it and such. it'll be fun. So i'll make a new build for that when this is done.

But this isn't done know why? We got another drift event coming up! cya then guys.

[silviaslider37]

well if you wanna sell any of the parts or the whole car from this build lmk! ill be interested

[Future_gohan]

I'll be selling the bare shell of my hatch once everythings off it. so keep a look out!

[silviaslider37]

maybe you could email and we could talk parts and stuff and price for the shell and how bare. im looking for a lot of stuff for my coupe build trying to get my silvia front back to par after i got backed into and the cop desided the damage was under 300 bucks and no ticket was issued and said i was a liar about how my frontend was jdm and was totalled... the brackets were even bent.... from a "low speed" accidental bump.... so if your interested email me ^.^

[Future_gohan]

SO here's the update.

I changed plans a bit, i do that a lot, but this time i'm sticking to it.

I currently just finished the suspension, other than my pbm subframe bushings, which i'll do in a few months, when i have garage time.

Currently i installed my coilovers, isis suspension kit, and finished my 5lug.

The coils sit as low as possible, with a little more adjust ability in the rear, but i'm not messing with it right now.







I'm getting rid of my silvia front, and going back to popups, possibly within the next two weeks, as i just bought a origin aggressive body kit.

other than that i need a steering wheel, seats and that's about it. I have eagle rods sitting in my house waiting to buy pistons and then rebuilding my ka. then back in with a new turbo as this one was only lent to me, and then back to driftinggg.

oh and i'm almost possitive as long as moneys right i'm getting a d1 spec cage this spring.

that's all. i'll have better pics in the day time.

[Future_gohan]

Not low till that happens. ha

[mRodiek]

How is your intercooler mounted?

[Future_gohan]

Right now? i'ts not installed i have it off because i'm doing a lot of work around it.

But i had it installed from two metal brackets i made(which are really thick, i have pictures of me(195lbs) standing on my intercooler and it didn't bend or move.) bolted to the bottom two mounts on the intercooler and to the bolts that the bottom braces bolt to the core support.

[Future_gohan]

[Future_gohan]

Yeah i honestly still want it lower.

[Future_gohan]

plan is(dates are when i get paid lol)

feb8th order pistonstax's rimzfeb22nd send block pistons rods crank etc to get balanced and s***march5th order the gaskets, new turbo, oil catch can, misc s***march 19th other s***

So lets aim for the end of march to have this running again and driveable! just in time for spring.

QUESTION// I don't know sr's very well would an sr oil sandwich plate fit on a ka? I wanna run a custom oil cooler setup, because i already own an oil cooler lol.

[ILoveMyRHS13]

What front 5 lug do you have?
