crazymonk8-8 Posted December 31, 2012 Author Share Posted December 31, 2012 Sry guys its taking so long to get updates but the project has slowed down as I am getting to the finer points of the build. So I have been working on the right rear fender flares. The wheel was not fitting up all the way into it. So I cut it and refiberglassed it. http://i1014.photobucket.com/albums/af265/crazymonk88/IMAG0300.jpg Right now I am sanding it down over and over and adding more layers of glass. So I'm not going to keep putting pictures up of that. I also started to debadge the rear trunk, that looks ugly as hell so far. haha. http://i1014.photobucket.com/albums/af265/crazymonk88/IMAG0302.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crazymonk8-8 Posted January 7, 2013 Author Share Posted January 7, 2013 So guys sry about the long ass wait on the update. I have been pretty busy between work and all the holidays and waiting for more parts to come in. We all know how shipping is around the holidays. Anyway I finally received my adjustable rear camber arms and got those all installed. They are pretty awesome and look a hell of a lot better than the stock stuff haha. http://i1014.photobucket.com/albums/af265/crazymonk88/IMAG0326.jpg And Installed! http://i1014.photobucket.com/albums/af265/crazymonk88/IMAG0345.jpg I also received my front lip and installed it as well. http://i1014.photobucket.com/albums/af265/crazymonk88/IMAG0337.jpg http://i1014.photobucket.com/albums/af265/crazymonk88/IMAG0334.jpg As you guys know I blew my turbo right before I parked it. The reason for replacing the turbo now. I was going with a gt3076r but I have already ran that turbo. So until I pick a turbo I actually want to run I am going to run a vf39. But I went ahead and installed my injectors, fuel rails, turbo inlet, grimmspeed ebcs, phenolic spacers, top feed and deleted tgv's. Here is a pic or two of a messy engine bay. haha http://i1014.photobucket.com/albums/af265/crazymonk88/IMAG0340.jpg http://i1014.photobucket.com/albums/af265/crazymonk88/IMAG0341.jpg I also got the front fender flares installed and one of the rear fender flares finished. http://i1014.photobucket.com/albums/af265/crazymonk88/IMAG0351.jpg http://i1014.photobucket.com/albums/af265/crazymonk88/IMAG0329.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pawlooo Posted January 7, 2013 Share Posted January 7, 2013 Car looks amazing and your set up is just my dream ... But are u gonna run some stiff sway bars with it ?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crazymonk8-8 Posted January 7, 2013 Author Share Posted January 7, 2013 Yes sway bars will be going on, I will be on a business trip next month which brings in a little extra money. That equals more parts! So sways, a new turbo, alcantara for the interior, and a tune is in order. Probably a new clutch and flywheel and transmission blast plates are an order as well. I can't forget window tint as well haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ispeed Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 Love the build! +1 for the dream set up. I wish I had the time, money, energy, ability to do all that. But I'll live vicariously through your pics. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kaclaytor Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 The fender flares are staying flat black until I choose a color I absolutely love. Haha I think you should really spend the extra money and have the flares paint matched. It will just look incomplete if they're not in my opinion and the car has too much potential. But that's just me, car looks amazing otherwise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey I thought I would try?! Seriously love your build like everyone else. Definitely rare and different. And yes, paint match the flares. What did you use to secure them? Pop rivets and 3M tape I suppose? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crazymonk8-8 Posted January 8, 2013 Author Share Posted January 8, 2013 I used cherrymax rivets. No tape required. And honestly the flares will probably get paint matched at some point. I'm kind of going for a different look and feeling for now. If I don't like it I can take them off and have them painted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MooKz Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 It's your car. I'd paint match the flares. Those flares are sick though. What brand/model are they? I know you said 240sx flares on your first post, but any particular brand? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
