starting my project!!

[n1smodr1ft]

hey guys just picked up a 92 coupe. i cant wait to get this thing on the road! picked it up for 150bucks but its a serouse project. Right now the car isnt running and pretty much needs an entire new interior (ps if you have any s14seats). Its got not side windows (needs a driver side regualator crank), exhaust, brakes, and some serouse body work. But im sooo excited cant wait to get back into a 240. Ill post some pics soon and let you know what im up against



my old car

wow i cant figure out how to post photos? help guys?

[duffman1278]

Just go to photobucket, upload than copy and paste "HTML Code"

[Mr. PDR]

Or you can try Imageshack. But photobuckets better.

What are you planning for this?

[n1smodr1ft]

haha thanks for the help check it out... she needs some work but hopefully will be up and drifting soon. Im not really sure what i want to do with it yet but im open for suggestions. there is some rust but def. repairable and she pretty much needs a new interior. i know the next step is int., j30 breaks and lsd, and some suspension. What would you do with it?

Yikes! big project you got there, have fun. How's the engine?

[n1smodr1ft]

i honesltly dont know yet i havent got it running.. its getting spark and fuel but the ignition is all messed up so im gunna try replacing that ive been trying to start it with screwdriver in the ignition switch. So i think what ever my problem is its electrical. but it ran 6 months ago and since then it sat with the windows down.

[n1smodr1ft]

hey guys i really need a manual window regulator for the drivers side if anybody has one! ill post pics of the progress.

[n1smodr1ft]

it lives!!!!!!!!!!!! ****in thing runs like a bat out of hell. got a crappy interior and took it out lastnight. it was nice and wet out so i was sideways around every other corner!! haha not really but lots of fun. Oh and got j30 breaks in it, and se wheels. ill post some new pics in a couple days.

[hpmachine]

That's awesome you got that for 150$. I spent that much on a battery. LOL

[yoshi_hito]

wow! hows the rust on the bottom side? good luck with the build

[n1smodr1ft]

the rust on the frame rails is very minimal only really has some in the rear under the trunk... there is a small amount of rust on the pass QP behind the wheel and other than that its pretty straight. there is abunch o dings tho.. now i got her running im thinking KA-T

[s13fOr_me]

thats a good deal you got there for 150. KA-T is the way to go.

wish i had a project like that to do. looks like fun.

[n1smodr1ft]

update!! got some se wheels to bad its covered in snow! that kinda sucks cuz now its starting to look like an actual car and no some pos heap. also interior update and some j30 brakes that we be in as soon as the snow melts.

[nissan240sxkid]

[Spiffy240]

wow very nice

this truely shows that it doesnt only take money to make a car look nice

some good old hard work can go a long way

GREAT JOB!!!!

this is one i cant wait to develop

[m tr4nch]

looks like a very serouse project to me.. haha jk manthats a friggin steal for $150. what are your plans besides ka-t?

good luck with it

[White Comet]

impressive, i thought u got a heap til i saw the price u paid, and then i realized u got a good priced heap good luck on it, im liking the improvements already

[n1smodr1ft]

haha thanks, im really injoying the progress too its alot of fun to work on. So far im trying to save up for some used coil overs and some cheap sport max. Im really working on a tight budget so i cant go crazy... ive been piecing together at turbo, and so far i only have a dsm bov!!! haha but progress is good even if its slow. I got the car for fun and so far its great!

[White Comet]

glad ur enjoying it. when u get coils just make sure u dont get blown ones or crappy brand coilovers

[n1smodr1ft]

here is what ive been up to. I just found a nice fist sized hole in the frame rail and had to do a little surgery on her. NOT FUN> i tried to get it registered and turns out it has a salvage title and needed to be inspected. Sooo i need 1 new strut cuz its leaking a little, and to fix all the rust.... heres some pics.

gotta love cynderblock jack stands.im not a good welder.... oh well..........................

[Chris.Rps13]

wow $150 you're so lucky nice job getting the interior looking decent. good luck with the rest of your build. But isn't it a tad bit dangerous to lift your car that way man you have to be careful.

[wackawacka]

Goosebumps FTW.

[mirochuki13]

Wow. $150 is not bad at all for that car. Looking forward to seeing the progress.

[nissans13240sx]

cynderblock jack stand =

but besides that its looking good.
