I'll pass on the oil cap, thanks though. i cant wait to get this dash in! i've heard great things about it. how do you like yours?

So I havent visited here in awhile. I figure I'll go ahead and update this. I haven't been able to get the car painted or anything yet. I'm not sure if I want to do that last and do the motor work, or get it painted before motor work. Being able to drive the car to the body vs having to tow it, hmm. S13 Stance GR+Pro's. I really liked the Stance's I had on the S13 so I'm gonna use them again. TechnoToyTuning suspension arms Fiberglass hood and hatch from Beta Motorsports Wilwood brakes from Arizona Z Car Picked up a new box as well Just ordered a fiberglass dash from PDK Fabrication. My dash looks like the grand canyon, and its so bad it wont let the dash cap I got to sit flush. And this is how it sits right now. Its completely dissembled and just waiting on coilover adapters from a vendor on HybridZ to install the S13 coilovers. Hopefully I'll be able to pull the motor in the next couple of weeks, and get the LS1 in for a test fit.

Up for sale is the 240 I've been building for the past 3 years. I have well over $10,000 invested in this car. Its been sitting for the past year since the last Pungo event. In that time I've lost complete interest in this car. It is capable of running at the moment but there is no oil pressure, no spark in cyl3, and year old gas. All these problems have been diagnosed, I just dont care about the car. I just want it gone so I can free up garage space for my 240z project. $6,000 FIRM Questions? Pm.

finally got a job! hopefully next month i can start the body work and get it painted! i cant wait, just need to sell that s13 and make some room in the garage.

I dont have any pictures, but the fact that these three seats have been sitting for about 10 years is enough of a mental image to figure out their condition. They need to be reupholstered obviously. But other than that, they're in good shape. $10 bucks each. I have two black seats, and one brown. Located in Richmond, VA, no shipping.

very nice! i think if i could have a 521, 510, and finish my 240z... i would be set for life.

if you have a tiny flathead, you can use that to remove the lock. although i havent worked on any gm harnesses myself, but this always worked on every nissan harness i've done. the screwdrivers that come in the ipod repair kits work great.

I was all excited and stuff for you until I got to this part haha! I didnt know they were still trying this!

Great story. Your stories are what made me join the forums.

stuff worth mentioning: stock bottom end SR 2871R at 14psi welded diff every suspension component replaced with battle version stuff and new factory LCAs walbro 255 SPL tie rods peak performance and nismo mounts Z32 and Q45 (suppose to be temporary) brakes

I picked up an s13 in 2005 to build for drifting. Finished that in 2008, drove it for a week, then it broke. Out of nowhere. Over the year its been sitting in the garage, I've lost complete interest in drifting and subsequently, that car. During the time I was building the 240sx, I picked up my first Z. A '77 280. It was love at first test drive. Ever since then I've wanted to build a Z and enter it in SCCA or NASA races. Back in March or May, I picked up two '72 240z's and an LS1. I started buying up all the parts I'll need to swap it in. I've bought almost $10,000 in parts for the build. I've priced the build out to a little over $25,000 but I expect that number to rise. But I lost my job in July, so the build is on hold :( . I also need to sell the s13 and finish the brakes on the 280. Then the 240z is going into the garage and I'm going to build a rotisserie. Then time for tear down, rust repair, and paint. The car is in decent shape. Lots of the rust has been taken care of but whoever did the work went crazy with the bondo. For the suspension, I'm either going to piece together my own coilovers or go the route ayuaddict (Shakotan Z) did and use coilovers from an integra. I cant wait to get started! its the red one thats getting all the love only 700 miles on this motor 17x9 -13 Rota RBR 17x9.5 -19 OEM Nissan fender mirrors :) this is the paint I picked up for it. Should go well with gloss black bumpers, air dam, flares, and rear spoiler

i'm jealous at the time you have for yourself! i would still work but set aside those checks for my Z project :D i've been unemployed since July, kind of blows. i spent like $10,000 in parts for this LS1 Z project i'm TRYING to start, then lost my job. fuck you Mr. Economy. now i spend everyday looking for jobs and playing video games. no unemployment checks for me since i was going to school. but i dropped out, couldnt take the classes seriously. they were beyond easy and ridiculous.

the red 240z is waiting on more funds to drop an LS1 in and restore. the black 280z was my daily driver until i got a 06 sentra, i miss driving it :( . its in the garage next to the 240sx you can see a little of. said 280z
