240k Style

How did she go in her new clothes? Ran ok?

More work done. Cleaned up the drivers side. Tomorrow the passengers side Rust converter Rust converter dried Just need to paint it

Oh and lots of red back spiders. Little bastards

An absolutely MASSIVE day today! Got stuck in with dad and got a bit done. This car was a country car and it showed. So the underside of the car was wire brushed and cleaned and using compressed air the crap was blown out. It was incredible About a 1/4 of the way in From this... To this!!!! All this dust came from the RH side of the crossmember alone! A bent coat hanger was used to pull it out and a vacuum and air compressor helped! Found time to replace the broken aerial with a aftermarket one which needed modding And managed to choose, repair and clean two seats. Replace the glovebox and reroute some wiring to basically finish the interior. I'll get the bases redone soon hopefully. Black wool covers will work for the moment. On top of all that rebuilt the back drums by stealing from my KHGC110 coupe (which is getting rear disc conversion) and bled the brakes. I'm stuffed !!!!!

New carpet in!!!!! Flying ahead now. Have the new shocks to put in. Need some fuel lines, maybe a heater hose and to muck about with the brakes. Racing to be ready for a car show on Nov 1st

I have so much to do to try make a car show with the Yonmeri on Nov 1st the Kenmeri is being a bit ignored. So this should help, I bought the basis for my race motor. L28e out of a '81 280ZX. It has a N42 head with and F54 block and was apparently rebuilt about 10km ago. Looks really clean inside. This will be an L30 (to fit in with car club championship classes) running Triple 45 Webers. Should do well

I never intended to buy a 4 door but it is really growing on me now. I've been getting stuck into the front brakes and grill area when I bumped the car and dust came out of from under the passenger guard. This guard needs repairs, so the dust was a worry. I pulled the guard and found this. Now I was scared!!!!! I got in there expecting the worst, waiting to see the Swiss cheese So very lucky!!! I'll clean and treat that and all good! This is how much dirt came out. 3tonne stand as a size reference So I tapped on the drivers side and got this Here we go again........ Very lucky. Glad I checked now and not later on. Also carpet arrived. Is about to go into the car Seems like things are finally falling into place

Please get back to 240kmad he's annoying me about questions but I cant answer Without photos . And hopefully you have a good trip

Blue one?

That's an awesome read. I'm absolutely hanging to see videos from your first track day

Test fit and photo shoot. These will work out nicely. Needs more low

Thanks for that. I really enjoyed the read. Gave me a few ideas too : )

She certainly looks amazing. I was thinking of painting my replica a blue that was so dark it looks black, but will be blue in sunlight

Thanks was thinking of using the standard loom And modding it. MSD is the way to go Love to see the photos in the sun!

Did you use a custom loom/ wiring for the car? And did you have to cut the dash to fit the roll cage?

Tst carpets on eBay are actually around the corner from me. I'll let you know when it's in

Photos of the extractors?

Not much progress as I've been really crook. Managed to crawl outside for a couple of hours and got stuck in Took the complete read end apart and re cleaned it (I was lazy first time). Polished the lenses of the tail lights using novus plastic polish. That stuff it amazing!!! I wet sanded the tail light panel with 1200 and then polished the whole thing inc chrome with various products. The paintwork is quite sad so I think this may be as good as it gets without being resprayed. I treated the bar as best as I could then polished, but that too needs to be rechromed. At the moment I want this car to be a survivor car, not restored so I'll do what I can to keep her ticking along. The only exception is some rims and a tad lower. I'm buying these off a mates car so they should look great. The price was one that I couldn't refuse. Mates Yonmeri The wheels are by Black Racing in Japan. They're full alloy and 15x6.5j +40 so the fit is about right. His car hasn't been modded track wise so they'll go fine. I have new front shocks on order and a new one piece carpet on the way too. Just need to kick this damn flu!!!

I think it was pewter from S15 silvia iirc

I'm out in the western suburbs of Melbourne ....all alone as far as I can tell

Haha that's so true of the Melbourne K's. Kid K would be the only one driving

I totally just worked out who you are . And Scott's auto rubber are the go!

Everything can be modified, but as to have I done it?. Sadly I haven't mate

Need to clear the idler arm

Just beware he has a Prince car fetish..like 8 of them
