Time For a Upgrade

[Broadfield]

Pretty much all wrapped up....... just waiting on the correct downpipe from Full-Race. I'm pretty sure they sent me the KA instead of the SR when they sent me the KA manifold by accident. It won't line up with the Apexi downpipe that's already on the car. If the one they are sending me doesn't work then I will just have to get my Apexi modified to fit. Car has been fired up several times and ran through the parking lot to check for leaks and the like. Loud as hell with open downpipe, but everything checked out great. Here are some pics to tide you over until I have Kyle take some final "professional" shots after I get everything all cleaned up and polished.

So umm, when is it getting tuned? Because I know for damn sure it'll be making more than 400rwhp with that snail..

[kyles1988]

the pulleys and kevlar belts are lookin sick! wish I had more time to come up there...I start the new job in 6-8 weeks, my hours will cut back down then but the pay will go up!

I'll hook you up with some pics with the $800 of camera equipment I ordered Sunday night!

Yeah, I am scheduled to have Charles from Adrenalin in St Louis do it a week from today. I might have to push that back a week though if I have to have something custom fabricated with my downpipe.

Christ, now what baller toys did you get for the Canon? Stop buying that crap and buy the Kouki!

[homeslicej2]

Everything is sooo clean....

What heat protector (kind/brand) are you using on your P/S reservoir and brake master cylinder?

[Broadfield]

It's the same stuff I used on the underside of the hood..... Thermo-Tec.

[exhsturbine]

dont suppose there is any way we can get a video of that beautiful machine.... pretty please???????

[MastaYu]

yes, vid please

[Broadfield]

Sorry, no video.

[Koshin]

I want your wheels.......Nismo?? You have the cleanest ****ing coupe ever. Very nice to see someone doing it right......

[Broadfield]

Figured I'd throw up some pics that Kyle took after the dyno session. It poured on the way to St. Louis...... about a 3 hour drive. So the car got trashed on the trailer, no big deal right. However, they wanted to shoot my car after the tune for a new Apexi magazine advertisement. They brought in a photographer while it was getting tuned, then he shot it afterward before it stormed again. So I had to do a quickie clean up on the thing. I think Kyle's skills are sick, he needs to do some work for money. I'm sure his pics are as good as the guy they brought in, if not better.

[Koshin]

You have the sexiest car on NICO bro......DamnI want the Silvia to look like yours........Damn

Very dope my man

[el OCHO]

[codyace]

ganky

just kidding

[homeslicej2]

That's it. The wife and I are moving into a cardboard box so that all my $$ can go towards building another beautiful 240. Now to break it to the wife......

The valve cover is just polished...... you can do it yourself with some time and sweat!

That's it. The wife and I are moving into a cardboard box so that all my $$ can go towards building another beautiful 240. Now to break it to the wife......

Just be honest with her and I'm sure she'll understand the amount of money you spend

I mean lie through your teeth and hope she never finds out how much you spent!

[homeslicej2]

...I mean lie through your teeth and hope she never finds out how much you spent!

eh...I'll get the 240 there one day soon. After I pay off the student loans that is.

[el OCHO]

cool so u just sanded it down with sand paper or wat then just polished her?

[Broadfield]

Yeah, depending on what aluminum you are polishing, will depend on what grit you start off with. For example on my turbo, which is a fairly rough aluminum casting, I had to start out with 36 grit. Then 50, 80, 120, 180, 240, 320, 400, then wet 400, 600, 800, 1000, 1200, 1500, 2000 then Hoosier metal polish. Any place I could I used a air sander and DA. You don't want to have to do all of it by hand.

[kyles1988]

Ya beat me to it Toby, I was typing it out and saw you replied.

[el OCHO]

kk cool, thank man

[el OCHO]

wats that box wit all the little air filters on it....i kno it might be a stupid qts but im still learnin

[datsun2401972]

AAAWWWWWWW *Clouds part and angels sing*

Super clean car Toby.

I've been a fan of your car well before it was ever in super street(I think that's the right mag). Yours was the first 240 I'd seen with the wedssport tc007s on it, which I was in love with at the time.

You should definitely put up a driving vid or drag vid along with your new dyno sheet!@#!@#

Also did you say your running a 3071 or 3076? I thought you said 3071 earlier, but then told ink or someone else that it was a 76.

Catch can.

It's a 3071 w/ .78 A/R

Yeah it's a catch can or actually it would be more of a crankcase breather setup.

[inkslingers13]

yo man check your email! i want the sheet of carbon hit me up! paypal ready

[Stripes]

Thought I would throw up some more teaser/progress pics.

Got my custom catch can in today. Here is a pic next to my old one. Those are -10 fittings to give you an idea how big it is.

I'm really wanting to know where you got that catch can made from. Please leave a reply or e-mail me because I am really interested in getting one. Thanks!

[Broadfield]

I can get you one made for $250. That does not include the lines though. Takes about a week.

(4) -10 input male fittings(2) -10 male return fittings ...... I just capped them off on mine and will use one for a drain when necessary.(3) Breather filters(1) Crankcase breather can

[Broadfield]

Couple updated pics with the bay 100% finished,
