i THINK YOU NEED A NEW FUCKING CAMERA

axiomatik · 02-05-2008, 07:00 PM

from what I can tell, valve cover looks gorgeous. but man is it hard to tell with that camera you're using.

90KAcoupe · 02-05-2008, 07:18 PM

i just took buffing compound and a rag and polished most of the crap off the lense of the camera so i'll be back with better pics hopefully.

90KAcoupe · 02-05-2008, 07:37 PM

here are some better pics

sidewayz240 · 02-05-2008, 07:48 PM

Beautiful man, Looks awsome. What paint did you use, it has lots of flex in it. I envy your patience, this is going to look amzing when all done.

s13pignose · 02-05-2008, 09:33 PM

Man thats a clean layout...sick work with the valve cover

90KAcoupe · 02-05-2008, 10:37 PM

here are some pics of my finished gauges. its simple, looks oem, and i like them.. lmk wat yall think

Dutchmalmiss · 02-06-2008, 12:48 AM

Good god damn it, sir! You sure can make an engine bay look equal or even better looking than a 240sx with 0 miles. On the other hand, this car better be abused later in its life!

CoasTek240 · 02-06-2008, 03:14 AM

great work. get rid of the sunpro guages.

i figured a cheap manual gauge was probably more accurate then buying some "shit glow" gauges or anything. and this was all i could afford. i'll probably end up getting something better down the road.

in all fairness, the sunpro guages are cheap, but they do the job. my friend's dad had them in a beat up truck and they lasted for years.

Naim · 02-06-2008, 11:35 AM

This makes me want to build up a ka!

aznpoopy · 02-06-2008, 12:16 PM

that's some really awesome work

my hats off to you sir

ECR33S14 · 02-06-2008, 12:23 PM

Clean ass build. props to you.

opponheimer · 02-06-2008, 03:53 PM

Just curious, is this a DD? Why so much emphasis on cleaning everything to a spotless finish? JW

DJButton · 02-06-2008, 04:52 PM

Freakin awesome good work!

To make people drench their keyboards in drool, thats why

It's cool as hell to see a perfectionist build a car.

you pretty much nailed it... lol j/k

but i did so i'm happy. when i get bored i can clean the fuck out of my car and it will be clean. once u get something clean its easy to keep clean if u care about it.

im also thinking about picking up a beater for a DD and insuring this car with the "sunday driver modified car" insurance so if some dumb ass person hits me i dont loose everything.

Aeroscraper326 · 02-06-2008, 09:00 PM

Cleanest Engine Bay, Ever.

bardabe · 02-06-2008, 10:15 PM

Clean. like really clean.

RPS13_NISMO KNIGHT · 02-06-2008, 10:52 PM

awsome work bro
keep up the good work

wannabe_drifter · 02-14-2008, 01:05 PM

What did you put on your exhaust manifold / header ??

I guess its for the same purpose as exhaust wrapping but I don't konw that stuff.

90KAcoupe · 02-14-2008, 03:07 PM

its just regular fiberglass header wrap with the dei silcon based header wrap paint. its suppose to help keep the fiber glass from fraying.

prang11 · 02-14-2008, 04:26 PM

The car looks great. Awsome rebuild.

I like the bolts holding the injector covers on. Mind telling me where you found those?

90KAcoupe · 02-14-2008, 06:16 PM

actually i cant.. we found them in my dads tool box and we have no clue where he got them.. so there is no telling.

samsx · 02-15-2008, 05:30 AM

very very clean, I love your build!!

dragon_x330 · 02-19-2008, 10:11 AM

Nice build. If you're planning on selling it after you're done for your Bimmer, then PM me.

90KAcoupe · 02-19-2008, 09:57 PM

^^ i was thinking about it but then i decided its not worth it. I've got so much work in the car and everything is basically brand new in it.

s13pignose · 02-20-2008, 11:08 AM

Pretty much your car and broadfields s13, are the most mint looking s13's I've ever seen. If my s14 was in perfect shape like that I wouldn't part with it either. Actually it's not perfect now and I still can't part with it lol. Keep up the good work

DreamN · 02-21-2008, 07:34 AM

Your car and Broadfield's car are my inspiration for utter cleanliness. You've done so much of what I plan to do already I would consider buying your car in a heartbeat. Any chance your dad wants to help with my coupe too?
