As most of you already know, I picked up a 91 240SX in late october of 09. This is just some of the progress I've made with the car. Most updates will only of cosmetic shit I do to the car. This how it looked...
Not pictured was a ricey aluminum wing and ridiculous front bumper.
I immediately tossed both and replaced them with a stock pig nose front bumper and stock spoiler. The suspension was shot. I went ahead and eliminated the spring/shock combo and invested in coilovers. I'm not a baller, so I had to get Emotors. They seem to work pretty good, and the quality isn't so bad for the price. Maybe someday I'll upgrade to Stances or something else. After the coilovers were installed, it looked a bit like this.
Not a huge difference from the way it was because It hasn't been lowered all the way yet.
About a month or so after, I began my search for a Silvia front end. I'm not really into the onevia look, so it had to be done.
Today 2/1/2010 Parked outside my buddy's shop waiting for its turn to get exhaust work done.
I didn't like the n1 style exhaust it had. For a few reasons: 1, I thought I looked gay, and 2: no style, and 3: wasn't loud enough. I really wanted blast pipes, but couldn't find any. Just this past Friday, a guy from a different forum listed some for sale. He remembered having some sitting on a shelf for quite some time. As soon as I saw he had them for sale, I contacted him and picked 'em up.
I used the same piping.
here's a little vid..very happy with the results
^^ since that video, I changed the exhaust one more time to ISIS blast pipes. I also got a hold of a hood, and finally fitted my bumper. I also picked some Rota P45R in 17x9 +12 all around. I also switched out the seats for the 2nd time. I went from Corbeau racing seats to s13 then finally to s14 seats.
here's a little preview.
next will be the final minor details, such as windshield, tune up, motor mounts, and paint
