subbed!!!!

ixfxi · 12-12-2015, 04:45 PM

damn who shot the white paint, stevie wonder? some runs on those fenders... hehe

KAT-PWR · 12-12-2015, 04:58 PM

Haha, practice makes perfect. Had some time the other day to get rolling on this second motor build. Fully built. Got new freeze plugs, painted, crank installed. Eagle rods, supertech 9:1, arp, clevite bearings, cometic. Jesus file fitting rings is a bitch, may just pay the machine shop around the corner to do it.

Painted this bay for my buddy with help from my mentor

Slabushevich · 12-12-2015, 11:16 PM

Aye fam, here are them pictures you liked. Don't question, just accept it.

1000/1500 grit wet sand and some mcguiars scratch/swirl and compound on a variable speed buffer
Got my Pistons/rods in today. File fitting rings was a bitch.

There are 9 s-chassis at the shop right now, not including mine.
6 s13's
2 s14's
1 s14.5

And my bro dude (the car on the lift) took second at the local comp

Hoonigan19 · 12-21-2015, 10:07 PM

fuck yea, nice paint job. Even thou it's not in a booth with proper equipment, not bad at all! those clearcoat runs, u can cut it down as flat as u can when it's still soft. then block it down with 600 grit sand paper with soapy water. Good job man, keep em coming.

KAT-PWR · 02-26-2016, 01:01 PM

Wire tuck all worked out great, finally got to test my lights. Just need to button the interior back up.
Been working on head porting and polishing.

Gingersmurf · 02-26-2016, 01:27 PM

Howd you wire them? did you go the Yoshi route?

KAT-PWR · 02-26-2016, 02:13 PM

I just have the low beam wiring ran to the low beams, and highs to the high beams. I didn't do a relay to make them both come on at the same time yet.

KAT-PWR · 03-01-2016, 05:04 PM

Found some secret sauce for $60 local

Gingersmurf · 03-07-2016, 11:41 AM

Nice thank you man! Hippo sleek skirt. Probably going to run the hippo sleek rear bumper.
Need to decide what color to paint the car

KAT-PWR · 03-09-2016, 07:35 AM

Sorry night shots only. Gotta finess the glove box wires (Fuse boxes are in there along with a fusebox for all the gauges)
Going to pull cluster and do the needle red/orange
LED cluster lights
LED's in DCC
Molded gauge pod
62mm to be mounted on A pillar (sucks just found out one of the bulbs is out)

KAT-PWR · 03-09-2016, 02:04 PM

Got the glove box cleaned up a little

KAT-PWR · 03-10-2016, 09:47 AM

S14 vs s15 seats to try and put it to rest.

Malik · 03-12-2016, 01:48 PM

looks good keep it up

KAT-PWR · 03-13-2016, 02:57 PM

Thanks man, got the car running/driving this week. Got my head put together for my other motor
JWT valve tool is a beast for re-assembly. Took about 45mins.

Water tested the valves, no leaks. Will re-test with gas before putting it back on. The intakes leaked when they were just set in so I was a bit worried I didn't lap them enough, but after putting the springs in they didn't leak a drop.

bmaddock · 03-17-2016, 01:11 PM

Wow really cool thread. I always see you post and have meant to check this build out. Keep up the work. I really want to tuck my harness and bring in the relay boxes like you did.

KAT-PWR · 03-19-2016, 08:25 AM

Throwing in this nismo 2 way I got for $60 lol. Guy thought it was an s15 diff because it was in an s15 pumpkin but it wasn't.

Zzz89 · 03-24-2016, 01:17 PM

You came up big time on that 2-way. Also interesting looking oil catch can, what brand is it or was it custom made?

KAT-PWR · 03-24-2016, 01:33 PM

Neukin catch can, I don't believe they make them anymore

KAT-PWR · 03-27-2016, 08:02 PM
