New guy: 89 Coupe

[nick.]

Hey NICO, what's up?

I've been lurking for a while, but never got around to posting soo... here is my intro thread.

Anyways, my name's Nick, I drive an 89 240 coupe. I bought it in April '09, it's been nothing but fun ever since haha.

It's nothing special, so far I've only done HSD street coilovers and 2.5 Catback and Impul RS wheels. Progress is pretty much at a standstill right now because of school and lack of work. My future plans for the car are to enter SoloII events and eventually time attack. While I'm doing that I'm hoping to get a lot more suspension and chassis work done and swap the KA-E for something better.

I don't have too many pics buut...







As it sits now in winter mode..

[Hooked on 240]

Looks clean. Miles/interior pics?

and above all MOAR PICS

ps. how did you make that thing in your sig. i see them everywhere and have yet to figure it out.

That's pretty much my plan. Once I get money I'm gonna fix some s*** on the car and then find a nice set of low offset meshies for it.

Damn im like in love with the color. Your car is so clean, i love it!Keep it up!!!

Do you have any other pictures of the exhaust?Is it angled out? or just straight?I can't tell.

[nick.]

It's on a very slight angle. Ahh f*** it, I'll try to snap some pics tomorrow.

Btw, does anyone know the actual color codes for this paint? I know its like misty grey and charcoal grey, but I couldn't find the codes anywhere.

Clean coupe man It looks super clean!

To help you on your question, the original color code should be in your door jam below the door catcher latch thing. It's a sticker.

Hope that helps!

Good luck with everything.

I was being stupid on a twisty road. It was more of a bump than a straight on hit, but it left a mark regardless. I hate myself for that.

For Nissan 2-tone paint codes (1989), try this:http://www.tcpglobal.com/autoc...2.jpgNote: 2-tone paint codes are usually a single paint code that actually represents two colors. Take that info to a paint shop. They'll know.
