So0o...HIN is saturday and this is what my car looks like 7-19-07 - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

nevaland9 · 07-19-2007, 08:23 AM

so my car needs to be done by tomorrow or kind of done by tomorrow for roll-in. My memory fab seats came in not even 2 min ago and i order one small one and one wide one, and i think the wide one is too wide to fit in the car..the car is being rolled into paint as we speak ill try to keep everyone posted but as time gets tighter and tigher i might not be able to get to a computer.

everything that needs to go back in the car (not shown quarter glass, rear glass , exhaust, headliner, glove box and seats)

just for kicks

NEW PICS!!!

getting wet sanded as we speak still shitty camera phone pics when its 100% ill take good pics.

Slidin240Wayz · 07-19-2007, 08:37 AM

Set the side on top of the sliders and flip the brackets. It should work, but it will sit high. No matter since it's a car show.

Okinawandrifter87 · 07-19-2007, 09:30 AM

Well best of luck and keep up the hard work!! Coupe powah!!!! <3

*CleanS14* · 07-19-2007, 10:13 AM

Chillout it's only HIN... you really want to show your car that bad?

Good luck though... you're pushing it Johnny5 style LOL.

tacotacotaco · 07-19-2007, 01:05 PM

I say dont rush it. Its not like many people at import will be able to appreciate it the way it should be.

*CleanS14* · 07-19-2007, 01:06 PM

My thoughts exactly...

Slidin240Wayz · 07-19-2007, 01:18 PM

I agree...take your time.

azndoc · 07-19-2007, 01:21 PM

True that it is just HIN, fuck it.

Take your time and do it right the first time. I mean look at my car, it's two tone, who cares.

projectRDM · 07-19-2007, 01:27 PM

I'm confused. You mention HIN, but nothing about AK47s, so how can you go if you don't plan to kill everyone there and blow holes in all the cars? Seems pointless to me.

Silverbullet · 07-19-2007, 01:33 PM

do you <3 drifting? But not as much as HIN of course

GSXRJJordan · 07-19-2007, 01:36 PM

hahahaha ^^^ gee Russ, you don't think HIN is the coolest thing since sliced bread or ball bearing turbos?

I didn't see at first why he would be so rushed to get to HIN, but then again in BFE, NY they might not get as many chances to show off a nice car as they do here in socal... I guess make a timetable and stick to it dude, but don't mess anything up just so you can show off to some 17yr olds.

BustedS13 · 07-19-2007, 01:41 PM

your car probably wouldn't stand out anyway, it's going to be a sea of 240's for sure... just do it right, take your time.

No matter where it is, HIN is typically a ricefest filled with e-thugs, wannabe gangsters, and underage whores. And 90% of those clowns are only there to check the cars out so they can steal them later. I'd rather park my car in a firing range than an import car show.

nevaland9 · 07-20-2007, 12:19 AM

all very valid points...i just got home from the shop (2:12am) and i have come to the conclusion that im prob not going to finish in time..ive got a lot of work done but the glass guy still has to come in the morning to put he quarter glass and rear glass in and the car still has to be wet sanded and compounded also the exhaust has to be put on. The slider hasn't came for the pass. side yet and the cage isnt even painted..geez

ive got a bunch of pics that i will post tomorrow morning, my phone died. Quick Question!: has anyone found a good solution for the sagging front bumper with no bumper support (silvia nose)? mine looks like crap. and what do most people do to get the lip to stay on? drill holes and use a little double sided tape?

07-20-2007, 02:25 AM

do people still go to HIN?

haha

3-240's-N-aMule · 07-20-2007, 05:07 AM

Your car is hideous looking. Why dont u just take a taxi to HIN?

run a bumper support. If you have an FMIC, cut it to make it fit.

As for the lip... im assuming its an OEM lip on an OEM bumper? Match it up, use a pencil and draw drilling points on the bumper of where the lip has holes. Drill the dots out and use nuts and bolts.

nevaland9 · 07-20-2007, 07:05 AM

PICS!!!

Silverbullet · 07-20-2007, 07:18 AM

sweet looking 240sx!

are those wheels Rota Grids? And did you cut those vents yourself on the hood?

opponheimer · 07-20-2007, 07:32 AM

Looking good. Put that shit back together!

I hope you rolled the fenders b4 you painted it.. You need to slam that thing.

nevaland9 · 07-20-2007, 08:42 AM

yea the fenders are rolled already...the glass guy just finished and i basicly finished everything else, all thats left is the door panels and exhaust and a nice wash and tire shine ill have pics up later...

the hood was cut but not by me it was how i got it..it WAS a vis CF hood now its ehh but i couldn't find a replacement in time.

trust me its going alot lower.

vvtisupra · 07-20-2007, 09:57 AM

you have different wheels right ? Judges don't fall for fake TE's

Taniguchi_Is_#1 · 07-20-2007, 10:54 AM

^^^ lol. i do like the paint, though.

pr0ject TRUENO · 07-20-2007, 11:03 AM

sleepy_s13 · 07-20-2007, 11:18 AM
