Wow I'm glad I found this build! You have came a long way on this car man! It looks FANTASTIC!!! As for the bike I'm thinking the ca18det should go in there it looks like it would fit ha jk I kid. Good luck with everything!

[mrgreeneyes]

this was SO good.

until that wiring MESS. yikes. find new friends, friends that do clean wiring.

love this build otherwise

[nightsauce]

I'm kinda anal about wiring too. All red wires are gonna be a b***h to go through if there was a problem.

[White Comet]

^ yeah it's fine til something needs wiring attention down the road then you'll hate the color red

[Dire91]

Man this s*** is awesome I praise guys who do projects like this I've always wondered though, what does a project like this set you back?

He mentioned that it was at 25 grand a couple of pages ago so i'm guessing it's more now...

[ca20det]

maybe I did not calculate 25G maybe if I count the amount of money I spent on tools but the knowledge I gained from this project is priceless and keep in mind that I built the garage too...

[ca20det]

this is not a mess we checked the routing of every wire that we extended (in red wire) for continuity and the color or the wire at the plug is still the original color only the extension for the wire that were too short are red the is no way I could have found the same color for all the wires.... so when the wires are all wrapped up with black plastic shield the color from one plug to the other will match....

[ca18detgabby]

car looking stupid clean. simply superb.

ok but think about this. when trouble shooting any problems in the mass of red wires, you're going to have to undo all the loom and unwrap the whole bundle just to see what each individual wire is for

[tunerinms]

This build is epic. Im glad i found a good clean car. I could never do what you have done. AWESOME!

[ca20det]

no you really do not understand what I'm saying... the red wires are only for wires that needed more length because of the RHD/LHD swap... so in the plug the wire color is the same as it was before.. you will not even see the red wires if you have problems you just have to test the continuity of the wire with a multimeter to make sure that you have the right wire if everytime you have a wiring problem you follow the wire from point A to point B you'll need a trained mouse to follow it through the small holes in the firewall and dash

[kgriffin]

keep up the good work nice bike too lol

[TomahawkJack]

looooove ittttt!!

[ca20det]

not much progress, I had a lot to do ... changed program in school, motorcycle courses, work, holidays ...... a few problems though, my injector pintels desintagrated.... so I need new ones or new injectors.... wich means recalibrate the ecu... etc.



samco hoses, looking for a new rad as well, just did not want to spend 30$ on coolant and take the chance the old rad would leak.... so I'm shopping around....



kouki spoiler fit test need to cut it glue a bolt refinish sand prime and paint



maybe worked out my P/S problem with a new fiting and adaptor pressed on the old pressure line just need to see if it leaks when I turn on the engine...



longer nismo stud

took the luggage and fender out....

[duffman1278]

Did you use flux core to weld SS?!!?!?!

[ca20det]

nope the same shielding gas I had for welding steel sine I did not have acess to a TIG welder then .... I'm practicing at school on the TIG for future SS an Alu welding needs

[Bumnah]

Nice project. It's not too over the top, so it should turn out great!..The suspension work is worth it's weight in gold!

[The240seller]

lving the project. You just gotta hate canadian winters. Hope she comes out nice. good luck on the bike build

[elchoccolatte]

Mad PropZzzz...

[OM3GA]

I actually sat here and looked through every single page.

WOW

A lot of work but it looks like its paying off.

NICE

[ca20det]

small update

rear suspension, exhaust, bumper and trim ready for inspectiondown on its rear wheels

Windshield installed I need to reroute my cold pipe (and TIG weld it at school) because I did not receive the good one...
engine harness all tested out should work out just fine I still need to wire up my E-fans, the low speed on a thermostatic switch and the high speed on a switch on the dash for drag and drift fun

[motoman399]

its looking real nice. congrats. by the way, did you ever use that kouki spoiler? is it oem? wanna sell it lol

[ca20det]

yes a friend of mine is molding it to the trunk for me... its a stock s14 kouki spoiler

[motoman399]

you should trade me my fiberglass one for yours. fiberglass would mold better and i would love a stock one for my kouki. ill pay shipping both ways!! mine is in good condition too.

[ca20det]

haha osrry its already in the process !!! and still the friend whose molding it asked me fiirst to exchange for his in fiberglass but since mine was cracked I kept it!

[bllabong89]

question, I know that flatblackian asked for some pics of the rotisserie. Would you be able to send me some pics also if you still have them or if it is still together? Also, how much did you spend on the materials for that. I have seen one from northern tool co and its like 900 bucks so i was just thinking of making my own but I havent seen anyone do it until now. Great build by the way .

[ca20det]

IIRC it was no more than 200$ its about 2-5$ per foot of tubing you just have to know how to weld

gotta love the kouki two friend of mine have one... you do not seem to need the rotisseri though...

[angelscrx]

I have to admit this is a project of love! There is some serious dedication to this project and I better not ever see a for sale sign on it!!!!!!!!
