Soooo.... I was going to wait till I finished painting it but oh well, already posted a pic up...
Enjoy!!!!

Well that's what was left of my old 240
Image

I saw this one on Craigs and I wanted it!!!!
Image

Picked it up bout 6 months ago exactly like this with the Rb, few problems with wiring, misfire, clutch, cooling system, and some suspension s***. But well worth it! :biggrin:
Image

Took off the frog lights and the hood pins, pulled the engine out midway to fix all the cooling s*** and rewire it. Threw an s14 seat in it, an actual "round" steering wheel, some other stuff too.

Overall I think it came out good, its not done got like 4 more coats to go but it looks decent now, its been either raining, i have school or I have work, but hopefully soon it'll be done. Than one day I can dump the gay hood and fenders and just throw a silvia on it, but for now its good, just got a new turbo and some other goodies.
Tell me what you think? :bigthumb:

Yea I got an oem hood laying around but I'd have to put some serious work into it, and the extensions don't fit well with the gay fenders for some reason? just waiting for the silvia front end anyways so its ok. I love your car by the way dude! sickness.....

The thread has lots of big pics, if you have a dial-up internet connection it's gonna take forever to load the pics.

With the right set of wheels, I like the hood. Visually, the combo would bring it all together. Nice color; like a glossed primer. :biggrin:

Cool color for rattle-can. But I gotta ask, what was up with the graffiti? From what I can tell your from the hard Midwest suburbs. I also think it would look good with an oem hood.

Thankkksss alot!!!!!!! I'm proud of it. Yea it is sort of like a shiny primer, the actual color is called rat gray, so far I think it came out awesome, can't wait to finish it! :yesnod

The graffiti was pretty much an impulse thing, we had paint markers and some reflective "track" paint plus alcohol didn't help either :facepalm:
I'm from the Chicago area, I'm not like a gangbanger or anythin its just some stupid stuff we thought of writing. I knew i was going to paint it soon.

As far as rims go I have 14" riken meshies, I'll prolly end up putting them on for now, but haven't decided what brand size or really anything else yet, waiting for a bigger drop and the silvia front end.

56k=slow internet no go haha, you learn something new everyday right?
