Finished cutting/polishing my repainted fuel flap, used a wetdry vac to to the floormats and replaced some bolts in the engine bay.

Water pump started leaking so pulled that off, cleaned it up, refit it with a new gasket.

- upgraded the ground for my amps....also added another battery to chassis ground
- pulled the cluster out to see why some of the lights werent working - found some dodgy LEDs, some were just around the wrong way, replaced most of them so they are all the same colour - its great to be able to see the whole dash at night now
- LED panels in the footwells, dome light, map lights and boot

just had a look at my rear shocks.....they are way too stiff and i found out that they are shocks + springs and not coilovers so they either have hard springs or the shocks are rooted :/

No :(

Dynamat isn't just for stereos. It's for road noise, comfort and temperature. Air con will sit nicely instead of fluctuating.

my workmates zf fairlane is full of that stuff to. he says its great. also i have been in a s13 roll before. it holds up very good, really no need for a full cage. chassis/strut braces should be sweet. personally i cbf/cant afford getting any sort of bracing for my car. but i probably should.

Highly suggest welding a bar to make up a front power brace. Where your front castor rods bolt into.

Here is a nismo one, but you can easy fab up the oem one.

$250 a box from ebay, but I get it locally from one of the car audio shops here for the same price.

If you take your time it can work very well, you just need to cut shit out in the right size or you waste alot.

$250 box gets you 9 sheets or 36 square feet.

Post #102

well i replaced my waste gate as it was seized open some how, bought all my exhaust gaskets intake and head gasket, got new some cooler pipe made up and ran all new braided fuel line in the engine bay and into the fuel cell in the boot of the gemini coupe i picked up, started pulling the cooler and computer out of the corona will have the motor box and diff and front suspension out tommorrow and then its off the scrape heap, got the next week off work so going to bolt the kframe up and try and this motor sitting in. my mate will be in town for 3 days so he is rewiring the micro tech and making me a new braket for the coils, should be done in a month,, not bad for a coupe that cost 300 and considering the diff is a direct bolt in using the gemini control arms i cant complain. i will throw a full build thread up in a a week or so, only pics i got atm is of the body work and paint so i dotn see the use atm. only thing im going to do is a full service on both motor, box, and do all the gaskets

Cleaned the interior with Innuendo, need to clean the exterior, probably do that tomorrow. Take it down for an insurance quote and try and organise the cage in the next month.

So far, 2 boxes. Hopefully I can finish off the car with one more box.I still have all of the boot and the doors to do yet.

I did the roof, floor pan, pillars everywhere possible really.
