know one will read this due to "shit motor choice" but still; thought id put a quick thread.
My names James from Sydney and this is my second sr20 ae86 build..
Quick run down one why i started again.. i finished my slapper of a ITB'd Sr20 86 but it was rough and full of rust (lighter then metal)
35172
I put it in to a tyre wall one day whilst playing in the rain at wakefeild. The damage wasnt that bad but there was so much rust in the car it wasnt worth fixing so i re-shelled and now we are here...
35171
picked up the new shell with less rust from Jordain which he had chilling on his front lawn..
35169
So i moved it to my lawn lol where they sat for a bit to get acquatinted
35170
I lost all motivation to rebuild so it took me months before i even started to work on it.
Bought a full genuine origin kit but still was to lazy to do body work
35174
wasnt fully stoked on fibre glass guards; so it wasnt hard for Roy Dowdle convinced me to cut my guards up and make my big wheels fit!
Motivation found ! :thumbup:
35173
since then its been full steam ahead.
Got some H/D bash bars made and some small rust repairs done at Redsun Motorsport
35175
I'd never touched bog before in my life but it was time to start making it look pretty. countless hours in the garage and trial and error sanding things.
35176
This was the first time it actually resembled a car in my ownership. in the wise words of Ice Cube "It was a good day"
351793517835177
My first time ever moulding anything, im stoked with how the bonnet vents and wing turned out.
more body work done..
351853518035186351813518435182
I bought a 180sx of a mate knowing it a fresh build sr20 making 260Kw; thought id take it to a track day with out doing any checking over of the car.. caught fire LOL! oh well, donk is still sweet and made money parting it out :thumbup:
35187
Since then ive done a thew things to the motor that should see me get over 300Kw (or blow)
35188
Car is going in hiFill this sunday 28/4/15 (if it doesnt rain) and then in for 2pak paint the following weekend.
Sorry for my poorly written thread, i dropped out of school
