nothing to report except i finished and looemd the wiring running down the driver side, i'll probably be putting the front end on shortly and have everything looking all buttoned up. i also ordered a few things from heavythrottle that they said would be sent out yesterday or today. nothing big, i just wanted to get soem good deals before they are gone compeltely.

before i get much more work done, i'm taking on a side project of fixing my friend's civic's rear bumper. it's his wife's car and he backed into the civic's rear bumper with his car, so to make a little cash on the side, i'm repairing and repainting it for him

hey bud would u be around sometime next week for help with my bushings? if i can get them all out id like to get a start on it.... i know ur workin alot but my body work isnt gonna take as long as i thought. I also need to check out that subframe support too.

id gladly throw some money you way if u could give me a hand w it.

Post by **White Comet** » Tue Mar 17, 2009 3:42 pm

lemme know what works for you, and i can make something work. the only thing is i might need to buy a new bench vise, i pretty much beat the s*** out of the old one to get the bushings in, but we might still be able to use it

Post by **White Comet** » Mon Mar 23, 2009 6:07 pm

nothing big, but a got a very small order from heavy throttle before they are gone for good.just a turbo outlet gasket, vac nipple, cas gasket and rad hoses and clamps

i'll have more parts coming in the near future

hey, i got my pineapple bushings for the rear subframe today, but the install directions say NOT to remove the inner sleeve .. how did you do yours?burn the rubber, and leave the sleeves or what ?

Post by **Bumnah** » Mon Mar 23, 2009 7:02 pm

what is that a 1/8npt to 1/8" barb? or 1/4 npt to 1/8" barb?

the pineapple bushings are for s13s and s14s. the instructions telling you to leave the sleeves are for s14s only. for s13s you removed the sleeves

not sure, i'll have to check. it was $1 from heavy throttle

Post by **hbpignosePA** » Tue Mar 24, 2009 7:03 am

the rust gel came from walmart iirc and yep, no shields back there. i got the pics and damn, that really is the entire side, front to back. i'd still take it to drive around for the right price. the biggest concern is the rear qp

Post by **hbpignosePA** » Tue Mar 24, 2009 4:33 pm

hence why i would part it...

i think imma wait till next week monday or tuesday and inquire about it... i got some money to play with since i have time till the belts will come in anyways right?

its got some nice poenza tires on the stockers, so i can just say i bought it for the tires, and the rest can be profit

least thats what i could tell myself

Post by **White Comet** » Tue Mar 24, 2009 4:45 pm

true, i think it's be a good deal. you said the interior was in good shape right? cuz i know someone that would be interested in interior stuff. and tom says he's sure he could find people to buy parts off of it. i texted him the pics of it

Post by **hbpignosePA** » Tue Mar 24, 2009 4:49 pm

yea i dont think id have problems sellin the parts... unfortunately i think it only has a drivers seat...

maybe they got the rest somewhere else...

i will take 600 cash n offer 5, see wats up ya know?

Post by **White Comet** » Tue Mar 24, 2009 4:56 pm

i think that'd be a good deal. i really hope they have both seats though

Post by **mmaxeyjr** » Tue Mar 24, 2009 5:05 pm

hey wc i emailed you about parts.

Post by **White Comet** » Tue Mar 24, 2009 5:11 pm

emailed back

Post by **White Comet** » Tue Mar 24, 2009 6:37 pm

i hope to get over in the next weel or so to make some progress but i stopped at nissan today to pick up my ac delete grommet.

i only needed half of it so i trimmed it and cut off the pull tab thingies

if anyone wants teh other half for any reason let me know, i'm not using it

Question WC, you relocated your battery right?Did you run your positive wire from your battery to a splitter? Then one off of the splitter to the starter and they other to the fuse box? Im a lil confused how to get power to my car

Post by **White Comet** » Tue Mar 24, 2009 6:48 pm

thats exactly how i did it

Website · Post by **mRodiek** » Tue Mar 24, 2009 6:55 pm

The passenger fuse box right? Where do I hook it up though?

Just an FYI, I bought the pineapple bushings for my s13 and went to install them last weekend but they are too small if you remove the collars... so for BOTH s13 and s14 LEAVE the collars in or they will be too small and fall through. Wanted to clarify that if possible...

great build progress, the engine bay looks good!

Post by **White Comet** » Wed Mar 25, 2009 3:29 pm

thank you but thats weird about the collars for the subframe. i removed mine and reinstalled everything fine without the collars in there
