Anyone From Michigan
 

anyone else from michigan? im a little north of flint.

Yeah there are several of us around. There are more threads like yours in here with most of the people already in there.

yeah i tried to search for some but didnt come across any. must have needed to go back further. i know all the project a spec guys and have known j woo for a long time. i have worked the gate at pretty much all of his events.

Haha oh yeah? The Michigan "drifters" huh? I moved here from NC about 2 years ago, so I've only met a few guys. CamryonBronze is from here, and 240GTR too. There are quite a few.

Niles, mi!! Just moved back.

Im from this small town called newaygo, MI. its over by grand rapids.

ash ur not far from me. im from grand rapids.

nice! im in cleveland right now for college, but im usually home once a month.

oh kool kool. maybe we can meet up sometime whenever u r back. i have a buddy near by me that has a 240sx hatch with the s15 front swap and a rb20 swap.

im curious to kno how many 240 owners r on here from west MI

I attend Grand Rapids community college from September through April, live on the corner of Cherry and Grandville. I don't have an s-chassis but I've got a z31. I've got a friend who owns an s13 though. Don't know anyone that digs Nissans over there.

i live in port huron, but go over to grand rapids to hang with this butt-jocky fairly often^^^^

well if u r ever around on friday or saturday nights we should meet up at the sonic in wyoming for the car meets that go on there

thatd be sick. my car is pretty stock right now but im planning on putting a turbo in it soon.

yeah my s13 is a POS but i just got it this year and already dropped $6000 into it. doin a full ka24e to ka24de-t swap on her. fully building it

same here... hopefully. hahaha i have a ka24de. what did you do to yours so far?

i still have the ka24e in my car that runs like complete junk. i bought everything that i need for the swap (engine, trans, harness, ecu, maf, ect) and i have the engine torn down right now. i have CP pistons, eagle rods, arp head studs, clevite bearings, and now i am working on parts for my head. Just got my stage 2 turbo cams from fedex today.

right now my car is just lowered on tein basic coils and got 17x9 rota grid wheels
i will post a pic in a sec

This is my Project car

that's a great pic. how do you like the 17x9's? thats what im thinking about putting on mine. any clearance issues?

Thanks dude

I love the 17x9s but in order to fit it is a good idea to roll the rear fenders. Unfortunately they they scrap my front fender while turning. So I would go with like a 17x8.5 for the fronts.

I don't take pics of the front of my car cuz its all smashed up. My girlfriends dad backed into my car when he left for work one night :'(

thanks for the heads up man. and that sucks about the front end! just take off your front clip and people will just think youre drifting it! haha

Once I turbo it I will be just driving around without my front bumper with a big old intercooler.

when are you doing the swap? im actually doing a vg swap with my buddy on his z31. its that blue one.

Rota makes the sickest staggered wheels. Exiled, tuck that muffler and you'll have a clean-ass car. Stance is fucking proper, dude.

Just need a few more parts before I can sent off the motor to the machine shop then I can start building. Probably wont have everything in till next spring.

And thanks dude. I want to just get an all new exhaust. Idk what brand this one is it was just on the car when I got it.

sick. did you ever say what size turbo youre putting in?

Honestly I haven't thought that much into it. I don't kno to much about turbos. So I still got some research to do.

Yeah I know the feeling. I found some good info at ka-t.org if you want to check it out.

I don't fuck too much with turbos either. The T3 I've got has like no shaft play after 130,000 miles and I don't plan on throwing more than 300 hp into my Z. Can't wait to get this fucking VG33 block back from the machine shop, everything is ready to be bolted on and bolted in. Should be pretty mean, utilizing the stock VG30ET turbo on a higher compression truck motor.

Yeah I am on ka-t already. Went their back when I planned on turboing my IS300.

I want to try to get around 400hp when my car is finished.
