Project Blackout: Mrgreeneyes' Coupe Build

Post by **mrgreeneyes** » Thu Apr 30, 2009 7:38 pm

yes, the legendary keegan will attend carlisle. however, not til the afternoon, and only if i can get a ride (susp license, dont ask), but the car wont be making a debut... however, my parts shipped out today...

take a second, breathe.... uuuunnnhhh, this is gonna be so hot. FULL PSM CATALOG of suspension/steering parts....

and yes, my mint-a** rolla is for sale. i need to fund this sr build... and im afraid if i keep such a clean gem, ill wanna mod it... and i wanna funnel all funds into the s13...

haha alright then, yea thats one reason i wouldnt want one right no since id get the itch to put money into it. Seems like alot of niconauts will be carless this year. o well should be a good time anyways

Are you parting out your other S13?

Post by **Didderson** » Thu Apr 30, 2009 7:51 pm

Funneling into Nissan is good, but I'm extremely curious about the susp. license thing, just gonna try to forget u mentioned it lol.

Dude full PSM catalog? Lol this s*** is crazy. Where's your sponsorship man?!?!

I wanna see a 2x3ft MAX logo on the rear window lol! Well maybe not, but it would b hot.

i only have one s13

due to blackice... i needed to fix some things...

that turned into a "hey while im in there..." thing

and now i have a ROOM full of parts to go on

big brakes, 5 lug, wheels, tires, aero, lights, full PSM catalog of susp/steering... and a good bit more... youll all see as work begins again... and the bank account cools off...

the sr will be built over the next few months... seeing as the rest of the car is pretty much done

Oh well never mind then lol when do we get to see pics of what youve done thus far?

This is a relief to hear. You've been working on Tree's car so much I wondered if your parts were installed or all still sitting around. Good to know!

i tried to go back through this thread to reminisce and all the pics are broken

Post by **mrgreeneyes** » Fri May 01, 2009 2:33 pm

yup, cus someone who used to be a friend of mine stopped paying me for storage so i shut my old ftp account down. i have old pics on my HD tho, but not all of em.

I heard this car is unnecessarily low. I've also been told my car was unnecessarily low. We should have a competition on who has the lowest daily driven S13 in the area. Sonic meet anyone ?

unnecessarily low as in my trans bellhousing scrapes crowned roads? yes. (i broke oem motor mounts that way) my car is notorious in this part of pa as "ridiculously" low...

car will be low again, fo sho. problem is, im fitting wheels that are 1.5 inches wider and 1" larger diameter with meaty tires (its a grip car), so front ride height will be limited. limited to juuuuust enough clearance to turn... turn at 50+*...

challenge accepted. meet at sonic definitely. game on, sir.

On crowned roads, I've been known to scrape rack instead of trans (solid mounts raised my motor and trans a bit). What wheels are you going with ? I have 17x9 +8ish and 18x9.5 +10 right now and I plan on going down another 1/2 inch for this summer. I've HEARD of the sonic meets from TST but I've never actually been there. What PA town is it in ?

i HAD to change to nismo's cus i broke oems from motor being too low.subframe in the front is scraped to all hell, dont worry about that.

im rocking 17x9.5+15 w/ 245/45/17 rt615's all around

no cheating there. my old 16x8+15 w? 205/50/16 zx912's got me low... but they are kinda gone now...

i have friends follow me in their cars just so they can see the sparks from under mine at night....

Post by **Didderson** » Fri May 01, 2009 7:41 pm

Keegan I'm really surprised you didn't have a skidplate! We may need to borrow one from somewhere right outside your driveway... I had no idea it was that low lol.

This NJ /PA thing sounds sweet. We should encompass more ppl and meet up at the philly 240sx meet on june 7th, being that it's right on the border!

Flattened exhausts FTW. I can't even prove my APEXi N1 is real anymore since the Jasma and APEXi badge scraped off.

Is it in the daytime? I can't drive through Philly at night. Too many potholes and raised manhole covers would surely destroy me if I can't see them to avoid/slow down.

It's a daytime BBQ:zer...age=1

f*** ya. half inch more clearance.

especially when i had this aem exhaust off another kind of car. went right under the diff and hung SUPER low. that s*** died.

when i was on 195/50 on a 15x8, that s*** was SLAMMED. lip was on the ground and i had more than inch on my coils left.

Post by **nevertheless** » Sat May 02, 2009 12:14 pm

Shoulda took your lip off to go lower, lol

Post by **Dizel01** » Sat May 02, 2009 1:14 pm

Man... I cant wait for you to put all your suspension goodies on.

PS. Thanks for helpin me out with the clutch line.

Post by **Clawhammer** » Sat May 02, 2009 4:30 pm

Dear Mr. Keegan,

I sent an email to the address in your profile. Not sure how current or regularly checked it is. If you get a second to reply I'd appreciate it much.

Love,Clawhammer

perfecto i like to see you dropping lots of money... that means fun cars later lol and the funny thing is i have a full SPL suspensions because of you

Post by **White Comet** » Mon May 04, 2009 4:34 pm

that is funny since keegan used only pbm

Post by **Didderson** » Mon May 04, 2009 6:25 pm

Either brand is top shelf ya know!

Thanks for the on site knowledge today Keegan, only thing I didn't finish up was cutting the 1/0gage main wire because I would like to hook up the junction box to the starter before cutting.

of course, i just think its funny to credit keegan with deciding to go spl when keegan has the entire s13 catalog from pbm
