I'll have to go back some day and work at trying to update this post with new links to the hundred of photos that photobucket shit out on.

But here is an update on the car. New clutch/pressure plate/flywheel is installed. Added a few other items as well.

Also most of the new wiring is done, just need to finish it up (maybe 75% done). Then to putting the interior back together.

Nissansota240 · 08-16-2017, 02:40 PM

This is either gonna work awesome, or will be a giant pain in the ass.\

Nissansota240 · 08-29-2017, 07:29 AM

Was a long weekend at the paint shop but with the help of some good friends, the car is all one color again.

gbaby2089 · 08-29-2017, 08:15 AM

This looks realllllll good.

codyzsilvia · 08-30-2017, 06:21 AM

tricky_ab · 08-30-2017, 09:01 AM

Ohhh I can't wait to see this in person!

Nissansota240 · 08-30-2017, 10:11 AM

Thanks duders!!, crunching on it over the past few weeks, (tonight will be a late one as we are hoping to be headed out around noon tomorrow) just have to finish the bash bar, splitters, and some interior cleanup and it should be ready.

Nissansota240 · 09-05-2017, 02:14 PM

Some photos from last Friday and early Saturday.

ka-titties · 09-06-2017, 07:51 AM

codyzsilvia · 09-06-2017, 07:54 AM

Motary · 09-06-2017, 10:19 AM

Nissansota240 · 09-11-2017, 10:02 AM

Crashed the car into the wall at final bout, broke a bunch of stuff but was able to get it back on track the next day.

There is a chrome plug in that allows photobucket links to work. You just need to install it.

Damn you hit the wall hard. Glad to see you made it back out after though. Such a beautiful car, still!

Yes was quite the surprise to me in the car, thought I had a little more room haha. Nothing that cant be fixed over the winter at least.

Went to a car show, snapped some pics on the way home.

Nissansota240 · 10-17-2017, 03:11 PM

Some photos from this past weekend.

Nissansota240 · 11-01-2017, 08:05 AM

Did a few things with the s14 before selling the shell last weekend. Looking forward to seeing what Eletor does with the footage for a Pop Your Hood Bro with a few DL Zenkis.

Nissansota240 · 11-13-2017, 02:07 PM

S14 and the 1j setup is gone but it was replaced with this Turbo2 shell, so I guess we'll see where this new build goes. Pretty much starting from scratch....

*afishysilvia* · 11-13-2017, 02:10 PM

Yes.....let the inner rotard commence....cant wait.

codyzsilvia · 11-14-2017, 09:49 AM

1J FC time!

ka-titties · 11-14-2017, 12:56 PM

I still think you're crazy for giving up the S14. It was awesome and beautiful. But, I'm also pumped to see what you do with this lil guy.

Nissansota240 · 11-14-2017, 02:44 PM

Yeah, such a love hate decision with getting rid of the S14, but other things in life took a priority and honestly was the best opportunity to sell it. Plans for the FC will to put a rotary in it and get it back up and running so that I may possibly be able to drive it in 2018, but who knows how that will go haha.

tricky_ab · 11-14-2017, 05:55 PM

I loved the last engine setup, and I can't wait to see what you have planned for the FC.

Now thats RO-Tarded....unless you mean a fully built/ported REW engine. Too much money for such shitty HP and longevity. Love the start though, FC's for the win!

Nissansota240 · 12-01-2017, 10:10 AM

Forgot to add this here, but this was a nice surprise from the girlfriend. Great way to remember a build.

Sailor · 12-01-2017, 11:47 AM

Good opportunity for a fresh build! Rotary is defiantly a different way to go, wish i knew more about the things. I'm glad you chose to do something different and challenging- otherwise what fun would builds be haha

Nissansota240 · 03-12-2018, 08:19 AM

Picked this up for the FC, so I would say the build is still semi relevant to zilvia. Looking forward to getting going on this project later this spring.

*afishysilvia* · 03-12-2018, 08:29 AM

Oh man....

SR in the FC? Top mounts are nice, especially with factory scoop.
