New Car

Jimithin7000 · 06-07-2009, 08:52 PM

Picked up a white classic from Gus (Ciclon1) finally got it cleaned up a bit. Not perfect but no rot or rust on it anywhere.

1993 sentra se-r 1750$ - SR20 Forum

Tsuru tail lights bonus!

Got a set or Red Recaros... some poor honda gave up its seats

No fakes here just OEM JDM goodness

Neo VVL on the stand

Close up

Meet Ronnie he owns Advanced Automotive a local shop in my town... when I am not working at Midas I am hanging around with this guy

New dash for the white car picked this up from Looking4aclassic

Thank god Bryan Green (Bgreen), Steve (Sr20Collector) and Alex(Morgans342) promised to help me clean the garage. Bgreen and Alex (Morgans432) came out and helped to clean and organize my corner of the basement. Needless to say they both left happy after some food and beer and taking home some free parts.

Afterwards

Got my wheels on going to be running a 225/45/15 in the near future but sitting on 205/50/15 Falkens right now... Also traded the carbon fiber hood and my quick release system of my daily driver for a Maxima rear brake upgrade and some Progress sway bars

Maxima rear brake upgrade peeking out from behind the ATS Complites

Progress sway bars front and rear this is the front bar the rear is already on the car don't mind the missing metal bracket its in the backseat

I just ordered seat brackets for my Recaros so it shouldn't be long before they go in.
Got them in and guess what... they didn't fit right for the Recaros or the floor never again Wedge Engineering!

I ended up making my OEM Recaro/Honda ones work with a torch and hammer

I ended up replacing my cluster bulbs with some better looking (Brighter looking) LED bulbs from http://www.superbrightleds.com/cgi-b...Fc5L5QodPg9ZJA These guys always ship fast and I have never had in issue with the 3 sets of bulbs that I ordered.

I ordered a set of 4 Unorthodox Racing underdrive pulleys from paNX2K&SE-R here http://www.sr20-forum.com/cars/25401...ell-100-a.html pictures will be up shortly.

I also ordered some new to me carpet from Matt (paNX2K&SE-R) and a 93 gauge cluster that isn't scratched to ****. I just recently ordered a set of Fastbrakes brackets from him so I can complete my 11.75 inch kit by just buying 2 piece rotors and calipers.

I got a chance to order my "beltline" molding from the dealer today. It wasn't cheap but I wasn't about to start worrying about money at this point.

Here is a bad picture of the P/N if you are interested.

I also had the chance to order my Mishimoto fan shroud kit from Pride Performance in NJ always a pleasure doing business with them.

I also am purchasing Whiteline Caster bushings from a vendor here Likethemovies. I am surprised more people don't buy these. If you are interested here is the link. http://www.sr20-forum.com/vendors/22...tml#post342577

I also picked up a set of TFT Motorsports window cranks not only are these old school cool but they are super rare and look good to boot! Got them from 1sikb13 here http://www.sr20forum.com/cosmetic-mo...ant-these.html here is a pic of them!

I just recently got my grill for the car thanks for the hook up 99SEL-R. If you look at the second pic you can see how much "depth" this grill has!

Speaking of 99SEL-R he seems to have a hookup on new OEM Tsuru parts. I am ordering quite a bit from him in the coming weeks. Basically paying for parts each week and having them shipped out in one big box. So far I have ordered Sentra floormats as well as Tsuru sunvisors to replace the ratty torn old ones currently installed in the car. Here is the link to a thread where he sells some of the more popular items. Keep in mind just because it isn't listed doesn't mean he can't get it!
http://www.sr20-forum.com/cosmetic-m...arts-sale.html

I sent my VE valve cover out for modification via Octave, you can see his thread on making these here

http://www.sr20-forum.com/general-sr...lug-cover.html

I also just purchased my BP initiatives 3 inch velocity stack more info can be found on this thread or at BP initiatives website.
http://www.sr20-forum.com/product-re...low-stack.html
BPi - Performance Velocity Stack
Here are some pics of it looks to be a good quality piece. Plus I can run this at the end of my CAI so I can get the cooler air and not lose the benefits of the Pop charger.

I also picked up a B&M short shifter w/ the custom steel shifter bushing it looks like the shifter has been cut and rewelded for an even shorter height... This doesn't really shorten the throw just the height then knob sits at. I also picked up a ES shifter bushing this was my first mod on my other car and what a huge difference it made. Plus it was something like 7 dollars.

Also on order are some of Steven's fender braces and Octocats rear strut bar with triangulators ordered these with Steve (SuperblackZ). Got the rear strut bar is an amazing piece money well spent in my opinion. Here is a link to a GB that is going on right now. http://www.sr20forum.com/group-buys/...0-shipped.html The fender braces look good as well although the delivery service was pretty rough with them I cannot wait to feel the revitalized chassis when I am done with the build. Here is a pic of the fender braces and triangulated RSTB.

Still waiting on Supercowboys lip...

I have just placed an order one that should be arriving within a few weeks time. It contains my JDM parts that I ordered from ImexGlobal. Just got this stuff it was coming from Malaysia but this dude genuinely cared about my stuff. It took me 1.5 hours to unpack this stuff. Minus a few scratches everything was there just as I expected.

If you are looking for JDM parts this is the guy to talk to :bigthumbup:
eBay Store - OtoWerkZ: Used Parts, Bodykits

I ordered:
JDM OEM 4 Fog front bumper

JDM OEM GTS rear bumper w/detachable lip

JDM OEM Sunny Super Saloon side skirts

JDM OEM Powerfolding mirrors

I am also getting on board for the GB for the CF Trunks/Hoods. Thanks to Alex (Morgans342) for making this group buy happen.

Also waiting on the Ultra wires I ordered with SE-Rtianlyb13 those should be shipping out this week. Got them in SE-RtianlyB13's car reported his car ran much smoother since changing from a Carquest brand wire

s.
I picked up a B13 Trans with a Nismo LSD and a 4.44 FD with the redline of the VE hovering around 10K this tranny should make the already powerful motor devastatingly fast.

Got coilovers used set of Hotbits Rally Kit which I will be selling soon or trying to trade for a set of Progress Coilovers

Ordered a set of Hi/Lo 8K HIDS on Luispeeds GB I got these and I am very impressed. I think I will be ordering another set for my foglights if he does another group buy. Between my Tsuru headlights the Hi/Lo HIDS and 4 forward facing foglights I think lighting should be covered.

Got my Mishimoto radiator in I prototyped it a while ago however Mishimoto dragged there feet on sending it out but, it looks to be decent quality. I will be ordering the fan shroud kit to go with it soon not sure how I feel about the silicone hoses they make. I have heard they fit like **** can anyone comment. I plan on ordering the Hose Techniques from Gspec.

I picked up a N60 Maf with pigtail from Steve (CTboostedB13) dude has a legit GTI-R in his barn

I got a unused Custom Steel coolant temp adapter from a member here

When this project is done I want someone to walk by and not even realize what this car is. With the exception of my panda bear theme everything exterior wise will be very close to OEM. White paint black wheels, roof, and spoiler with a CF trunk, hood, and front lip.

blurr.rt.by.you · 06-19-2009, 10:54 AM

good pick up man. as far as cleaning up just get a nice wire shelving unit off of craigslist and stock it up with parts. good luck guys

Jimithin7000 · 06-19-2009, 06:10 PM

One day it will be cleaned up the floor will be sealed and when the white car will have a home to sleep in

Jimithin7000 · 09-09-2009, 09:17 PM

Saved for future expansion ... would like to try and keep it all on one page

SuperblackZ · 09-09-2009, 10:57 PM

Nice. I didn't know how puny the stock rear brakes were until I owned them. Pads are about shot, rotors look like hell, about time I do the same on my second car. No use in buying new rotors for the stockers when I can swap calipers out and use Alty/Max rears and bigger/better rotors.

Wheels look great

Yeah I never realized they were that tiny until I saw the white car next to the gray car. I can probably get ya a nice deal on the parts... all I want in return is to see how you route you Ebrake cables Mark tried his best but the Ebrake doesn't grab until way high

Thank for the compliment on wheels I know they are your favorite color!

SuperblackZ · 09-09-2009, 11:40 PM

Let's check the routing on the SCC car. It works well.

Only some pics here, might be how it's routed at the calipers, too.

happynole · 09-10-2009, 12:18 AM

Take off your exhaust center section, and take down the shields. Behind them is an adjuster for the rear e-brake cables. Just don't go overboard or it won't fully release.

I will have to try that although mark said he had to route them a diff way and I might want to experiment until I got the E-brake exactly where I wanted it... It used to grab say 2-4 clicks with enough force to hold the car now the car has to be in gear or the weight of it will roll the car backwards

Checked my cars and I don't get much rear handbrake until more than 2-4 clicks, up top the second car is solid, the SCC B13 I really have to set it hard. I never really think about it because I got out of the habit of using it at all from track an autocross, you never set the hand brake when you come in or you hotspot things. Actually prob not a bad idea for some of my drives home

SE-Rtainlyb13 · 09-10-2009, 10:04 PM

Looks great dude! Happy to see the build is rolling along. paintjob in the near future?lol I love the ATS as well. You running a spacer kit? What tires? looks like the wires will at least match the reacros. haha. wish the wires were black. You ever find out what exhaust is on it? now that I think of it, I don't think it's the HKS.

The paint job will be coming in due time I am glad the build is going so well the parts pile is starting to get extreme lol. The ATS wheels are 15x7 you will never believe what I paid for them with tires... only 350. Although I will be swapping the Falkens out for a Hankook 225/45/15 tires over the winter. Just got the Recaros test fitted 3 out of the 4 bolts went in with a little hammering of the brackets. I have spacers for the car but they are not on the car now. Yes the wires will match the recaros quite well although I am probably going to send my VE valve cover out to Octave so that he can make a cover for it so they won't be really visible but oh well. I still haven't figured out what exhaust is on it although it won't be on there for too long
