Kyomae · 10-20-2012, 10:35 AM

I don't even have a two-tone and I'm pissed. Somebody jack the flat black crap and do it right, even the new owner doesn't know what he's doing.

^^^ I know. I hate to drag this on, but i just can't ever fathom doing that.
Ruining an original two tone, and now painting it another colour, not even two tone.. WHYYYY!?.

Go buy a raft for 500, and throw some bbq paint on that, if it makes you happy.

Big Zee · 10-22-2012, 11:23 AM

finally got my car back on the road. Paint coming soon, replaced the front fenders and the paint turned out good, the rears, well it got cold when we did them and they peeled

have new front fenders, and a Dmax hood coming so once they show up I'll respray the whole car and engine bay. Back to factory colors of course, along with the black stripe seperating

gearhead55 · 10-22-2012, 08:59 PM

Looking good Big Zee. Do you have other pictures?

also, here's how my day went:

!Zar! · 10-22-2012, 10:17 PM

Better the inside than the outside. Both times I've had a tire debead, the outside lip decided to take one for the team.

gearhead55 · 10-22-2012, 11:27 PM

yea I am thankful for that. And it's actually not that bad, the sidewall of the inside ripped off and it looks like it was kind of protecting the rim. It was leaving a little trail of tire rubber. It's also an excuse to go down a size on the sidewall and get rid of the little bit of rake it has.

So clean and perfect it makes you wanna slaughter a family of kittens with a spoon and then kill yourself with the same spoon, right?
That's how I feel.

FlatBlack.v2 · 10-31-2012, 08:03 AM

Soo nice man. I would prob only do coils, and wheels. Keep it clean!

*Wake* · 10-31-2012, 01:13 PM

Hey guys I've been thinking about getting one from the group buy. Let me know what you guyst think about the fitment.

I picked up this original 5 speed two tone 1989 shell during the summer and I've been slowly piecing it together. Swapped in my spair KA24DE and 5 speed transmission. It's currently my daily and I'm undecided on whether or not I want to keep it and restore it or sell it off to finish my hatch project. I do however enjoy it and love it to death.

I don't see how you could ever dare sell it then. When I sold my first two tone (which also happened to be my first car and 240sx) I felt so shitty. Went through six cars and even bought a Z4 but I was never satisfied and only wanted the two tone back. Luckily I have another one now and a whole lot better one too and you best bet that I would sell my stupid z4 before I sell my two tone coupe.

I must be buried in this thing. I love it so damn much.
