no i just barely sent the money for them monday night... i've been insanely busy here recently... hence why i'm barely on the forums...

 

Seems like a cool project. I'm thinking about getting a Zenki S14 (or another car I won't I.D. until I get it ) soon as a DD.

 

new motor and trans.



"fixed" the front bumper, lol. still got more work to do.
and replaced the fender with a crappy rattle canned one that came with the car.





got all the wires out of the back, re-wired the headunit, and took those crappy white faces off the gauges.

gauges are still broke though, so i need a new cluster, and need to finish up the surround for my radio.

 

hey cory this guy on nasioc has a gauge cluster

the VC is painted skyblue?? lol

 

i really can't wait to see where this thread goes. I love 240's.

 

i got it painted blue and dont have the time or care to re-do it. lol

 

i like the blue

 

hands down best bolt on kit for the KA24DE is the Full-Race Twin Scroll GT30R kits. Check em' out.

 

you crazy for doing any modifications in the winter

 

i've done that before its pretty enjoyable to do... freezing your hands off while you have a space heater inside your car

 

i dont even have a space heater, i have a heated garage but dont use the heater since i nvr finished insulating and the gas bill was $500+ one month.

its not bad if your working, you stay moving, and stay warm

 

Nice im thinking about getting a 240 for my v8 build.

 

boo.
get ready for mad haters.

 

i smell LS1 swap

 

haha at D1 some drifter had a LS1 motor swap and the entire crowd boo'd like no other when he came out.

 

Duuuuuude the manual tranny swap was a pain. I got so many cuts and my back was sore for a day when we did it on my friends coupe. It's pretty simple though, as far as the clutch assembly and master cylinder. The part that took me the longest was having to drop the steering column so you could swap brake pedals. I wish my friend would of just cut the break pedal in half lol but whatever, we did it the right way and got everything good. Good luck on the build!!

 

sick Cory...I will be doing this when I move back to NY and clean out my parents garage hahaha.

 

man. so thursday wednesday i got up at 9 A.M. for work, got off at 7 P.M. then drove with a buddy to go pick up another auto trans for now, since i still need small things for the manual swap.

well we got back at about 12:30 P.M and decided that we were just gonna do the swap then. One thing led to another and we ended up pulling the motor along with the trans. So after some work we mated up the manual motor to the auto trans and go everything put back together.

i was awake for 40 hours straight. 11 of which i spent working on the 240 with no breaks. haha

i have some pics but ill upload them later, i gotta get out there and get the new motor in and finish up

 

16 hours total and motor and trans are in, car is running and driving good.
idle is a little choppy so gonna try to tackle that tomm.
