i have all so started preping the car for primer
no photos of that though
sold the drift style wheels to buy the haltech and got some r32 skyline wheels to go on bit ruff but i will get them looking good this week they are 16x7 35p

bought some used side trim i needed going to prep and paint them this week to

and painted the tail lights and some trim i had all ready i just need 2 more pieces then i will finaly have a set

 

Wow tons of progress since i last progress since i last saw! Everything looks great cant wait to see it after paint.

 

cheers man

slowly getting there bro it is good progress though aye!

 

are you going to get your wheels powder coated?

 

nah **** that no money for that **** lol just going to water blast them and spray them saturn black lol

 

I work at a powder coating place so Im going to ask my boss if I can bring in my own stuff to powder coat. the whole rear suspention, front cross member/subframe, wheels. all that stuff.

 

Nice build!to

 

lucky for some lol

cheers bro

 

dont paint the fc, looks tough as is.

 

i thought about that but i have chosen a color now and it is cheap so im set on it now

 

Im only lucky if my boss lets me powder coat my ****

 

managed to get two wheels striped of paint i think they look pritty good for one coat of paint stripper any way here is a pic

 

LOoks mean as man! Can't wait to see the finished product!

 

they look amazing! why are they to differnt sizes though?

 

cheers man your sev looks mean as too!

oh the tyers that came with the wheels are all ****, i got hooked up x4 tyres all the same size for $160nzd haven't come up with the funds to get them yet though haha broke!!!
on a side note i managed to afford some more paint stripper and some more filler so i stripped the other two wheels and will be starting filler and sanding this weekend. chosen a different paint color to so i will keep yous updated, basically from now on no major engine work will be done till the car is painted and dropped on its feet and every bolt/nut is checked to spec, if some deals i got going pull through i am going to get 25mm wheels spacers to make it look a bit more tough.
so updates from now on will be:
seats mounted to new sliders some how
tyers put on wheels and wheels painted
25mm wheels spacers
1600cc injectors
prep paint
and once that is done im toeing it down to my local shop witch is the only shop where i live with a dyno!! good thing is its a 40seconed walk from my house and i walk past it every day after work so progress pics will stream in! they will do haltec install full wire up and exhaust and tune!!!


this is how the car looked when i 1st got it 3 year old photo! running 13b turbo2 manual for 4000nzd

 

looks great so far man. can't wait to see the dyno results. keep us updated. i can't wait to see it out of paint. good luck and thanks for sharing

 

how long untile you have it running?

 

thanks for the kind works bro cheers!

well this hole week i will devote to getting the car ready for paint. that includes the trim, wheels, hatch and cleaning up every thing. i should be able to afford the tyres this week to so they will go on. then its out of my tiny shed for paint. that will take ages as i have no idea what im doing lol. then the cool **** will start to happen hahaha to be honest bro im thinking start of our summer i think it will be drive able.
and winter hasent started yet lol. im only saying this is because the haltech is used and i dont know how many bugs and crap i will have to deal with to get it running good, plus the hole exhaust needs to be fabbed up and that **** aint cheap. but as i said i got a few projects going to earn some more cash here and there so who knows it could be 5 weeks away at the rate im going lol
im dreaming here lol

 

i want to see more! and also a dyno run to see what kind of power you get on p port n/a with short runner mani.

 

Keep going man looking good ! You gona keep the s4 tail light's ?

 

yea I am aiming to have mine done by june Im working on rewiring the entire car right now. wons I get all off the body wireing basicly done I am taking it all back out and painting the interear and exterear and engine bay. then I have to build the engine and wire up the sprint re then that will be the main thing the engine. then I still have to save up and do the suspenion. I would have my build thread going but my camara just craped out on me!
