Oh man this build is AMAZING. I am in the process of going top mount, and I'm glad to know that I can still keep my PBM HMIC. Great work!

beems240sx

Made a quick gauge holder, still waiting on my switch panel to come in






Can't decide if I want to stay with the Zenki tails or not



Spot on for what I wanted fitment wise

Subscribed. Sick build. I can't wait til you paint it, it's gonna look amazing

Ramonesfreak2010

I am assuming you are using reducer fittings for your fuel lines?

beems240sx

No it's -8 the whole way

So all your fuel parts (fuel rail, filters, and regulator) have -8 inlets and outlets? Only reason I ask is because I am piecing together my fuel set up and it either has -10, -8, and or -6 inlets and outlets, so I figured I would use reducers so I can use once size line. For example, fuel rail has -6 inlets, so use a -6 to -8 adapter so you can run a -8 fuel line.

beems240sx

Yeah i ran into that issue but just bought all new fittings, not reducers. so it didnt look ghetto. majority were already -8 so i stuck with that even though its overkill honestly.

Nice ass build. What powder coating gun do you have? I do powder coating, in fact waiting for mods to approve my build thread for the shop drift car. I am getting ready to get a gema v2 tabletop gun. only a price of $5,200. lol

beems240sx

Yes sir! I went Mia for a while when I was building it.

Some gun from harbor freight. It's honestly all in prep. Good sandblast and preheating and it will look like glass. No need for that expensive stuff honestly unless you're going to be doing wheels or chassis

__________________

Shanevasquez

We do pretty much everything. Not chassis yet though because of size. I do a LOT of candy's, which is where the gun upgrade comes into play. with the higher grade gun comes way easier application. Which when doing 5-6 sets of wheels a week is a must. Currently using a spectra coat which even that one is a $1000 gun, but not happy when it comes to applying candy's.

beems240sx

Yeah that makes more sense. We just got it so we could mess around and do calipers,brackets, anything that would fit in the sand blaster honestly lol

Shanevasquez

That's funny. I started the same way. I used to own a performance shop and I got the gun just so we could do smaller stuff in house. Just made so much money doing coatings that's all I do now. lol

05subysti

just read all 5 pages, nice work! lovin all the purple, and body work. Fuel cell setup is good as well. Are you gonna weld more sheet metal to enclose the trunk from debris etc?

and yall make alot of money powder coating?? i have always been interested in starting it.

Shanevasquez

I am not sure how much they charge since there primary business is not powder coating but I make pretty good profit. Depending on parts and colors using can make 80-90% profit off parts coated after price of electricity. lol

beems240sx

No I'm going to leave it open how it is. Ill be closing up the opening in the rear seat and that's it. We rarely powder coat for customers. Just for our own cars really. It would be nice to do it for customers but we would need a bigger sand blaster and oven

teamtech harness in, and yes i know i need a cage so i can mount it correctly. but for now if i get paralyzed its my own damn fault



i will be tearing the interior back apart to paint it all white, just didnt have time now.

went offroading and flipped our jeep



and our buddy got stuck trying to float



i finished most of the wiring, still waiting on my switch panel to come in. but the car cranks over and everything works. start up hopefully this weekend if my tuner is free

well last night was the big night, got her to finally fire up.



then after extensive persuasion i ditched the rocker arm stoppers, apparently they do more harm then good if one pops off and holds a valve open



drove it around the block to.... test the hydro and then washed her up







so hopefully next weekend we will be dyno tuning and a week after that is paint
