Project Blackout: Mrgreeneyes' Coupe Build

[Chris28]

So by saying that my passenger door came from the baller coupe, I can say that I too am a baller?

Car looks great man, but I'm on the fence about the rear bumper as well haha. I'll wait and see how it looks when it's all on the ground.

hows your car doing man? ka-t? i wanna see it... i think a couple of us are coming to VA sometime once the cars are ready.

thanks for the kind words homies!

[Chris28]

I'm having some afr issues, as well as weird misfiring issues. Details are in the KA-T section if you're interested haha.

Where in VA? If my car is running correctly then yeah Im down to meet up with the lancaster guys.

We were thinking VA Beach. I know a 240 owner who is good friends with the S15 owner and other S Chassis owners.

The requirement is to scrape at least ONCE on the way down... Scrape frame.

[White Comet]

i can tell when i'm not wanted

[mmaxeyjr]

YAY i'll pass the scrape test

[Kalypso]

this car's going to look good... all thats left now is how the wheels met the fenders.

I wouldnt roll or touch the fenders until you abuse these tires and get (stretched) tire sizes you want to use permanently.

but its not my car

[Didderson]

I think that's a really good idea Kalypso.

I was looking for a beach run this summer. If you low ridin' nubs r serious I'll def. be down.

[mrgreeneyes]

rear is already rolled, super mildly pulled.

fits freaking spectacular

[Bumnah]

HAHAHAHAHA multiple slammed 240s, one without a rear bumperdriving down 81 in va? Don't forget to pack your KY gentlemen. YOU'RE GONNA NEED IT!

YOU'RE GONNA NEED IT![/QUOTEYou forget, he got the idea from me. My car won't have a rear bumper, either. We're planning more fun treats; don't worry. How about a VA Beach 240 BBQ?

[Chris28]

Awesome, I'm like 20 minutes from VA beach. My exhaust hits at least ten times on the way over there, so if there is a minimum scrape count ANYONE with a 240 will meet it.

[Bumnah]

Have fun I suppose.

Sure to the BBQ? I don't live in/near VA Beach.

[Chris28]

Bumnah you should make a road trip to VA beach that day/weekend.

I hope this isn't the weekend of the 18th. I'm doing a drift event in NC and won't be here for the majority of that weekend.

[mrgreeneyes]

Sure to the BBQ? I don't live in/near VA Beach.

neither do we

more work tomo. getting the car towed to my house so it's easier to work on.

[Bumnah]

Thanks for the invite, but there's a low probability of me going to VA Beach.

[White Comet]

^ same here. i dont even meet the requirements anyways

[ILoveMyRHS13]

Car is trailered home. Pictures and videos later.

[ILoveMyRHS13]

Here goes. Brakes still need pads, and a couple of odds and ends need to be attended to, then this slut will be road worthy.

The front bumper stayed off because it was too low to get on the trailer. GREAT!

The car just looks pure evil.

Oh, front fitment. FULL camber on PBM coils. Deeeeeyum sooooooon.

Oh, exhaust cliiiiiiiip.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vjpN_EQd8mY

Man you don't know how happy the update made me man. Def got an evil grin on mah face when I saw it had moved and that the bumper had to stay off for towing, but I could have told you that LOLLLLLLLLL.

Sick fitment already. Can't wait to see the final fitment. Looks like those fiberglass things are secure. GJ.

It looks so mean. The rear bumper, I'd think about getting a custom crash bar welded up because it would look hot. I'm starting to like the rear. One more bone to pick, just coat that gas tank so it doesn't stand out so much.

Can't wait to driiiiive w/ u both when yer work is done.

[Chris28]

Is this bish on the road yet?

[Kalypso]

looks nice... wont know until the rear is on and you give it an official photoshoot

[ILoveMyRHS13]

Proper photoshoot will happen when my car is done; I promise.

[White Comet]

good i want to see awesome pics of the finished product. i'm getting antsy to take cool pics of mine too. i've been messing around with my mom's nikon

[hbpignosePA]

hey man cant wait to see this driving around lancaster.

i might need your assistance with a new project for a wire tuck.

picked up a pretty mint s12 hatch to DD with the KA from my s13.

but the body harness is laid out stupid/ and untucked

[mrgreeneyes]

well, not a ton done today, but progress was made. exhaust is mounted fully/gasketed w/ new gaskets, fenders are mostly fitted, skirts are 99% fitted, just need to bring the front bumper home and trim the hell out of it to clear the crash bar.... ugh...

smoked the rear side markers, they are NICE and dark.

the front markers are the type-x style square lights, and are on the way (dmax w/ the two colored bulbs, so ill have functional lighting up front)

the misc rogue stuff i need is en route from courtesy in the next week or so hopefully. its ordered, but the stuff i need is hard to track down.

new fuel filter and softlines were purchased (z32tt filter), new powersteering hoses, all sorts of little freshen-up items.

calipers are still fully functional, compressed easily and w/ no leaks! win-win!

sweet interior stuff is being started right now. the wink 5-panel mirror is in and adjusted, its freaking awesome. shift boot and glovebox are next... to match my hood idea.

ebrake lever removed, as its not even close to hooked up.

more later

[White Comet]

i clicked in hoping for pics......... don't disappoint me again
