Well today (yesterday by now actually) I went and picked up my new car. The Mazda is leaving and being replaced by a 1997 240. I woke up at 6am yesterday morning to get ready to head out to Beaufort, SC from Atlanta to go pick the car up. I got back around 7pm and began knocking out some of the smaller things. The plan for the car right now is to get it running on the stock KA24de until I have time to swap it in the summer. Future plans are probably a stockish SR20 swap for a while so I can get used to the extra power, and then a big turbo with a goal of around 400whp. With school and the Mazda not being sold yet though I don't have the time or money to tackle it right now. Anyway, onto the good stuff.
Current Mods:
350z Purple Paint (I think the name for it is Interlagos Fire Metallic)
Silkroad Coilovers
Bee*R 17x9 +/-0 offset wheels
JDM Kouki Front Bumper
JDM Kouki Side Skirts
JDM Kouki Rear Bumper
JDM Trust Front Lip
JDM Digital Climate Control
JDM Eclipse DVD/Nav unit
215/40/17 Kuhmo 711's (Basically new, and yes I need bigger tires)
S15 Brakes
Walbro 255lph
Z32 Fuel Filter
I believe that is everything but I may have missed something. If so I'll update this post. So, without further delay, here are some pics of it sitting in my garage earlier tonight.
I didn't really get any of the front end because it isn't totally on the car yet. It sits really low with the Silkroad coils and we had to take the front end off to get it on the trailer. I'll get some pictures of that, the interior, and the engine tomorrow.
As of now it doesn't run but the list of things I need to do isn't to terribly long.
Attach header and exhaust
Install stock radiator
Install wiring harness
Install ECU
Put in new radiator hoses and heater hoses
Install an intake
New fuel lines
Install random vacuum lines that may be missing
Eventually fix the A/C (this can wait, its winter)
I already have the header, ecu, wiring harness, and radiator in my garage. I'm heading over to the pull-a-part tomorrow to try and source the rest of the parts before I spend more money on new stuff at an auto parts store. Anyway, thats about it for now. Stay tuned for more pictures and updates over the course of the next week and probably the next several months.
