Project Nemesis '99

[DudeYourSoOOJDM]

So I figured I'd end up doing a little history of my car. The car was bought in 1990 off the lot by my pops. I got it as a Present to begin my Senior Year in 1999.

When I first got it. 240SX club summer BBQ. Bmx bikes in the back!

[Full-Lock]

wow the new look is awesome

your cars come a long way! keep up the good work :bigok:

[drftkng951]

seriously its a great car...
what color is that...?

[Daniel.]

Makes me wish I still had my hatch. *tear*

[Wykydtron]

I almost mixed your car up with SwayRay's, I had to ponder for a second. What are the specs on the wheels!?

[DudeYourSoOOJDM]

LOL. It's a Maaco $500 paint job. Looks a lot better than in the Pics though, theres metallic in it. I just picked it out of a book. The color I modeled it after though is the 2005? Titan green.

Yeah. A lot of people confuse me and Ray, plus we drive with eachother quite a bit. I hope he doesen't paint his car green!!! HAHA.

[mrmephistopheles]

Looking good, Mickie!

I think that first pic was '00. I dunno though. :keke:

[DudeYourSoOOJDM]

What's up Kevin! How is Everything?!?!?!

Yeah, now that I think about it...it was probably '00 in that first pic.

[Phlip]

Thank you for not having that pignose lip on the chuki bumper anymore.
To those keeping score at home, please notice that a pignose lip on a non-pignose bumper looks like refried ass.
Car looks great now

[MURPHY]

wtf 18x9.5 sport max 002's? lol

car looks alot better nowadays

really like the xd-9s

[freeman]

great history :)

Back bumper is fucked.
I was following Henry(PinkFC) in top 4 eliminations and he mis-shifted from 2nd to 3rd at the speed of really fucking fast. I initiated at the same time and had nowhere to go but into a Haybale. The rear toe is in by a lot so I might have some suspension damage. Back bumper flew in the air a few feet, I guess it landed on the bottom and skidded for about 100 feet. Theres a lot of scratches in it.

.....looking nice lasted 2 days. HAHA.

[CantSTOP]

DAMN Mickie!!!!... new paint job, nice color and this is Reagan lil' bro

[Irukandji]

Wow

Car looks AMAZING.

[Tops*]

Man, I hope to have a history like yours with my car someday. The song I'm listening to right now is adding some dramatic effect lol.

Lovin' the XD-9's.

[dirtdiggler666]

mikie you were talking about posting this up yesterday and im glad you did it made me:keke: . now we just need to get my p.o.s out their

[TonKpilS14]

very nice...

its cool how u have had it for so long and just kept building it as the years went by.

[mrmephistopheles]

What's up Kevin! How is Everything?!?!?!

Yeah, now that I think about it...it was probably '00 in that first pic.

I'm pretty sure that's the summer '00 Mile Square Park meet. That COULD be my car in the background.

[DudeYourSoOOJDM]

I'm hoping 2008 will add an LS1 to changes.

[NervGS]

HAHA!

Mickie! I remember you and Abe were one of the first people I met back at the Balboa meet. If I recall, that was during the *rice* stage :)

-glenn

[djp.]

i want to be like you when i grow up

nice build:bigok:

[illvialuver]

cars looks great now, i love the color, and the wheels i want the same wheel s but polished finish. looks like you use your car too. good stuff.

[Oubre]

looked pretty nice at every stage (minus the rice :P)
*thumbs up*
good taste

[low and slow]

beautiful looking car, man, keep up the good work

[DudeYourSoOOJDM]

LOL. I forgot to mention. The dash remains uncracked, and the SR has been running strong for 6 years. Just dynoed 270hp, 277tq. Would have made close to 300 but it's still on an MBC which drops boost VERY BADLY! I believe the dirt on the motor,horseshoes, and 4 leaf clovers are the only thing holding it together.

[d*star180]

Whoah.....shit looks really good man.
I like it alot. Nice for someone to know where there cars been forever.
Bet your pops would be sad if/when you total it out in an explosion of
fiberglass.

[DudeYourSoOOJDM]

I brought it over to his house yesterday. He pretty much didn't like anything I did to the car previously, he said it just took away too much from the original look (whatever that means).

He came out and saw it and was like....."It looks amazing". (insert teardrop)

And thanks for all the compliments guys....You have no clue how hard I've had to work in life/cars/everything to get this thing where it's at right now.

[CKAMC]

6 years..... KA-T guys have nothing on that!

I was like :ugh: when you went from SSR's to Sport max's... thank god you picked up some works.

[Antihero983]

Thank you for not having that pignose lip on the chuki bumper anymore.
To those keeping score at home, please notice that a pignose lip on a non-pignose bumper looks like refried ass.
Car looks great now

not on my car it doesnt......but i also took the time to mount it so it doesnt lol


and to the OP, i love that green color! very very nice!

[xamraci]

this statement is fitting for your car...

"Save the best for last!"

Damn that thing is clean

[eastcoastS14]

LOL. It's a Maaco $500 paint job. Looks a lot better than in the Pics though, theres metallic in it. I just picked it out of a book. The color I modeled it after though is the 2005? Titan green.

^^ you do the prep work for the paint job or did you have them do the whole thing?

[A Spec Products]

Yeah!

Sexy time

No white stage + Sportmax anymore!

Throw your P's in the sky for PALMDALE!

On a side note your 2001 picture I remember from the old days....from like some wheel fitment thread on maybe FA? LOL when 15/16 inch was gangster enough

[DudeYourSoOOJDM]

6 years..... KA-T guys have nothing on that!

I was like :ugh: when you went from SSR's to Sport max's... thank god you picked up some works.

LoL I had the SSRs in 2001! I didn't put sportmaxs on till 2005....that's a long time! For some dumb reason I went from the SSR's to they Typhoons because 17's were the "big thing". I regretted selling those mesh wheels for years.

I didn't do any prep work....I had Mike from GW help me throw the rear overfenders on.

The paint would've only cost $250 if I hadnt done the roof black.

Dude Typhoons were the hotness (well, 5 lug ones haha jk)

I loved them on Koguchi's red 180sx he drove in the states at Drift Showoff in 03 (I think 03?)

Those were the 17x9 (? or 8.5/9.5 can't remember) joints...I know the 4 lug sizing was weak but I think there was decent fitment for the Typhoons in 5 lug

Either way that car was hard...plain and simple but all together + Koguchi = win

[adrians_s13]

I loved how it all turned out... looks great!

[DudeYourSoOOJDM]

I decided I needed some spares for track events....Borrowing wheels was getting old....I think these will do :) Thanks to fellow Zilvia'er xdumbxguyx!

[A Spec Products]

Hey Mickie you so fine

You so fine you blow my mind

HEY MICKIE (clap clap)

HEY MICKIE!

Sittin on them Meisters is lookin real proper like!

Sick!

[ALEXTHESUS*PECT]

sportmax's should never be on your car again. and now with the meisters the xd9's look kinda iffy too! nice to see someone with heart keep a car for so long and continue to work on it!

[Flybert]

Holy crap. Team Facial has all the baller wheels now.

[DudeYourSoOOJDM]

LOL if you only knew how much shit I break you'd know why I ran Sportmax's for so long....I just cant have nice things and keep them nice.

[Bushido]

i like how you still got the stickers on the tire, yet you've already wore a clear line through the sidewall letters. looking good, keep it up champ! and buy those fronts!

[ByeByeSti]

ive seen a couple cars from maaco, they look good for about a month and then look like shit after that.. paint chips easy as all hell but hey you get what you pay for.

anyways your llittle timeline of your car is real cool idea, and its good to see that after almost 10 years now you still have your 240sx. most people say that there getting out of it or want to get out of it. and you on the other hand just continue to upgrade yours each and every year! congrats

[DudeYourSoOOJDM]

If I went with a $2000+ paint job I would have had to paint 3 full URAS kits already....I'm pissed off that I had to pay $150 each time to paint a full kit. I dont drive the car on the street at all so basically the paint job was to look good in action shots....which it does. Thanks for the props guys.

[Dousan_PG]

we need more practice

TEAM FACIAL is the best

btw we will win again at HTM for team comp. DUH.

[DudeYourSoOOJDM]

I'm gonna stay SR for now.....We compression tested the motor....140 across....not bad for 6 years of beating the shit out of it.

I was sure the motor would be a little hurt from overboosting at Pro-Am in Laughlin....but nope....

[95Kouki]

yeah..i was expecting something funky...you know...after you hit the jump at pro-am in third gear instead of shifting from 2 -3 in mid air like usual...hmm...not to mention your car sounded like a bat out of hell...but didn't that feel good...that means it's time for a power upgrade yo

[Brian]

Wow, Mickie, your engine rules.

[DudeYourSoOOJDM]

Thanks....yea I'm Goin shopping for them today, Spencer's here I come! During the rebuild....we forgot to put the backing plate on the tranny. Had to take it to Eastside Muffler and beg to use their lift..... Then onn the test drive, I think my buddy that put together the KA trans on SR bellhousing forgot a couple of the roll pins and the tranny got toasted. Spent all day yesterday swapping in a Legit SR tranny.

[UfoZ8myCow]

Glowing neon roll cages = 19 shades of awesome.
