thats mostly because 240's are un pimp and we only get sleezy ho's up inside of our cars. Not a good thing.

azndoc · 03-20-2007, 05:43 PM

This is my car when I did it with chisels and hammer (dryice is for sissy, hehe actually I'll probably do it with dry ice next time).

Why I did it, because my car smelled like cat from the previous owner. Plus I always thought the whole gutted interior looked great. It's pretty loud though. I can hear everything, which is good also.

I should've welded the holes shut since dust and sand always gets inside now and looks like poop.

I used two coats of primer, two coats of gloss grey, and two coats of clear. All with spray cans and lots of brain cell loss.

Now I gotta strip it all out and weld a cage in and paint it all over again. Awesome.

staygold24 · 03-20-2007, 05:47 PM

Keep your interior, the weight savings won't be really noticeable, especially if you don't remove the important shit (HVAC shit behind the dash, AC stuff, skeleton in the doors, sound deadening, etc.) Removing your carpet isn't going to save you shit...in fact, it'll just suck worse because your car will look like a rolling box of dogshit and no girls will want to get inside of it.

iono about u but every girl i know loves a car thats stripped.. cuz she knows whats up when its stripped from inside.. aint gunna be a regular ride to the mall.. its gunna be a bad ass ride to the mall.. lol.. latah

for the dash.. 50 is kind of border line giving it away 75 seems like a better price.. and from your storry seems like its in really good condition so i say 75

Seats are is? What kind of language is that?

You mean the silver box with the big yellow decal marked "SRS AIRBAG"? I'm going to go out on a limb and say it's the airbag control unit.

CKAMC · 03-20-2007, 06:58 PM

where is all the coupe love?

WERDdabuilder · 03-20-2007, 07:18 PM

soo...any real reason why you guys gut your car?

i dont see any real reason unless its a track car.

or you just tryin to make an impression for other people like "look at me...i drift/street race"

not tryin to hate or anything.

staygold24 · 03-20-2007, 07:31 PM

Yep guess its the airbag control unit. My bad.

From my perspective theres barely any room for people in my car with me being in the drivers seat pushed all the way back. Only a midget or someone really short can ride in the back seats comfortably. So removing the stuff in the rear doesnt hurt anything.

However, I think it looks pretty stupid. I know some people will take performance to extremes in their cars with stripping and stitch welding their dd. I personally just dont like the look but removing extra weight from your car is the cheapest performance mod you can do.

McRussellPants · 03-20-2007, 07:59 PM

I gutted my car because

-it smelled like cat piss and a inner city drainage ditch.
-it looked like shit
-it sounded like shit, Genuine mono sound, while cool in 1992, is not so fresh now.
-I was bored.
-S13 interior is made of tweed and burlap and is not baller.
-I don't have AC, so chicks don't like my car anyway
-added up it was probably substantial weight savings

people should note, that rattlecanned interiors look cool for a day.

then they get dusty, dirty, scratched and otherwise wack.

aznpoopy · 03-20-2007, 10:00 PM

i took out my rear seats and some of the trim because i had an electrical short and i was going nuts trying to trace all the wires at 2am in the dark. i haven't put any of it back in yet because i'm lazy.

Lol @ stripped ass uncomfortable interior in an automatic car. Not even a fucking passenger seat.^

My old s13 used to be gutted, i was embarrased as hell everytime some new bitch would ride in it, it was annoying sounding everytime it would rain, and there was fucking rattles everywhere. My current one has a perfect interior that isnt getting gutted until i get my cage in. Just make sure you keep all your shit in case you change your mind at all.

well the only thing i have left is the passenger seat and seat belts... as for the noise.. mine is really quiet... like i said before.. the previous/original owner took really good care of it.. had all the maintenance records in the glove box and even had the battery warranty card from when he bought the battery... so mine is nice.. and usually the chicks that go with me.. already know whut im into... so they are already excited and wet before they even see the car..lol

93 240 s13 · 03-21-2007, 02:44 AM

ok.. couple of questions...

1.what does stitch welding the interior do?
2. what is a good paint to use that wont scratch away real fast
3.woul it hurt anything to remove the supports on the rear strut towers if you do not have a roll cage?

so far in my gutting ventures i have lost well over 250 lbs, and still have stuff to remove if i choose to.
i chose to gut mine and make it a 2 seater... becuase 240's should not have been a 4 seater car to begin with.
and now i dont get asked to give people rides as often

thats a bonus

and my experiance with girls and my car, they dont mind it being stripped...
i have never had a girl tell me my car is ugly or that it loks bad becuase theres no carpet or rear anything..

just my opinion though.
