91 hatch build-clean and daily

hello erbody. this is my 4th 240sx. first boosted one, second most powerful.
this 240 i picked up from a local guy on a local forum

very well maintained, no rust, sr20det, 180tails, some love.

i was so excited, i got right to work.
here is first day.






that was the first day. for me its come pretty far.
i found a good deal on some 180sx seats, trans(current one grinds 2nd) fmic and bov.


removing the old leather i hate!
new love

installing

before i could even put the fmic on i had the stock bov pretty much fall apart on me.

i ended up ghettoing it back together.

changed front brakes

side pic

so even though i dont sit in the back i really hate leather hahahahah
removing rears



other issue i had. turbo unbolted from the manifold. oooo noooos!


in the middle of changing that i took a break to remove all the stickers. just not a fan of stickers

finishing up the gasket replacement

installed orange key ring light


got a sweet gauge pod to hold my gauges

got a dash mat as well. the dash itself, is completely perfect. and i wanna keep it that way

got to work on the front mount


here is a night shot of it

me and my friends miata

really wanted orange gauges like i have in my truck so i ordered some leds from superbrightleds.

didnt fill out right, i had to order two more small ones.

remounted my turbo timer, it was taped under my dash and it kept falling on my leg. so i cut and re soldered.

nothing really wrong with my turbo, there is a crazy leak right after the turbo on the elbow. so i ordered a used one to rebuild

i replaced the back brakes. come to find out the back driver caliper is shot. replacing both calipers soon.


^^^^^^
passenger
driver

the exhaust i have on currently is very very loud and annoying. so i decided to change it. got a downpipe highflow cat and an apexi spec. i cant wait to have it on.

i have some wheels going on saturday, i have exedy stage 2 coming in. along with my turbo rebuild, lines, and other odds and ends. updates as they arrive.
lulz already edit, the fmic is waaaaay to big. ordering one half the size.thanks guys!
