a little cleaning up would be nice!

[Gabes13]

It already has a manual transmission.

[darens13]

shoot some paint on that bumper and you will have yourself a pretty clean coupe.

Does your HUD work? I love my coupe. I'm fixing the sunroof right now.

Hey man, what are you doing with the single slammer? Did you take out the transmission too?

[240sxAli4Life]

Sweet! Looks like a good start on your project! What do you plan to do with it once its all together? Track it? Is your hatch your daily?

[khon240sx]

the single cam? ehh... i will use it as my backup parts when i need something. yes, i took out the transmission too. both engine and transmission have 160k miles, engine needs head gasket and it's good to go.

thanks! I've sold the hatch long ago and it was my DD. the coupe will be my DD and track car.

[uber240times2]

I'd be happy to take them both off your hands if the price were right haha

[240sxAli4Life]

Hope it turns out nice! Is there any rust on your coupe? You plan on painting it?

just minor rust around the body nothing major and no frame rust so wooo hooo!~!!!! /

i bought it off the first original owner ( the old lady) and the funny part was, she gave me all the maintenance record from 1989 to what year? i didn't remember.

What pistons are those?

Sometimes fixing the HUD is as simple as soldering in a new capacitor. Give it a read. Just be uber careful taking out the dash.

[240sxAli4Life]

Well cant wait to see more of it, keep up the good work and make youtube vids of it running, and a drive video maybe.?

Thanks for the info!

HUD hmmm will it work with KA24DE cluster?

I'm not entirely sure. I have a '93, with a HUD and DE. If you need pictures or anything to spot differences let me know. The previous owner already fixed the HUD, so I didn't have to .

that means i need 93 digital cluster, sub-harness and other things i have no idea in order to make it work.


p.s i hope this week will be no rain so i could tear the KADE apart and start rebuilding it.


good night all
