I got bored and decided too make a start on my car early this year.

So here's the plan. Sort out rust in engine bay first.

Firsly strip out as much of the ancilaries as I could without removing the engine ,

http://i136.photobucket.com/albums/q168/nismo9/200SX%202007-8/FRONT1.jpg

then.
Removed all the seam sealer first and found ALOT of rust underneath it. So cleaned it up using DEOX GEL , took several aplications.

And then its time to spray some high zinc primer on it.

Sort out all the rust first...

Then do a full color change

And finally fit a bigger turbo + inlet plenum.

Should keep me busy over the winter..

Was there any evidence of rust behind the seam sealer before you started? More pics of the effected areas would be useful :) Keep up the good work :thumbs:

nismo

There was a fair bit of surface rust under the seam sealer alot more than I expected, but nothing had rotted through.

Sorry but all primed now so I cant get anymore pics :(

nismo
12-12-2007, 17:54
All the rust done now and a couple of coats pf zinc primer. plus welded in new metal around battery tray as quite bad there.

Well apart from a little blowing in required on the front corner, it has come out well.. I have decided to go for a pure white.

If you remove as much as possible of the pipes / wires etc you can get around the engine quite well,

Only the engine bay done atm

Next interior..

Started on the rear today and decided to remove the seam sealer to check for corrosion after what I found in the engine bay, found several small patches and a couple right at the rear that had split apart at the seam.

So out came the Deox gel again..

Unfortunatly no, there was no signs of rust anywere. the seam sealer was put on quite thick in the boot. So there's a small amount of weight saving after removing all that.

had the rear windows removed today , cleaned of all the sealant and checked for corosion, all OK..

Fitted one of the rear chargespeed wings today.

I dont like the way it flares out 50mm at the top and then goes down to nothing at the bottom.

http://i136.photobucket.com/albums/q168/nismo9/200SX%202007-8/sidewing2.jpg

So I have been toying with the idear of stretching the bottom out to suit the top approx 50mm.

http://i136.photobucket.com/albums/q168/nismo9/200SX%202007-8/sidewing1.jpg

What do you think.

Ps.. Bucket seat option in orange..

How much will you need to space the wheel out to get it look right? And how does it look with the door shut?

How much will you need to space the wheel out to get it look right? And how does it look with the door shut?

I have got some 10J rims to go on the rear and they will need a 20mm spacer to bring them to just inside the top of the arch.

When the door is shut it will just look as flared out at the bottom as the top. hopefully :thumbs:

No its not the first time I have done this, but it was a few years ago.

I fitted an X pack kit to my 1975 Capri 3.0 GT. It was white aswell !!

Maybe im thinking of the good old days

not a good pic but you get the idea..

As with the rust under the sealer you may be lucky and not find any but you cant tell untill it is removed..

A bit more progress made.

Thanks to Petrol :sxoc: All the engine bay brackets are now plated..

http://i136.photobucket.com/albums/q168/nismo9/200SX%202007-8/engineplating.jpg

Also the rear quarters are now on and nearly ready for paint.

http://i136.photobucket.com/albums/q168/nismo9/200SX%202007-8/bonding20.jpg

As you can see I have flared them out at the bottom by 40mm to give it a 'fat' look

http://i136.photobucket.com/albums/q168/nismo9/200SX%202007-8/bonding21.jpg

Also I have started on the front bumper by filling in the indicators and opening up the front by 40mm to allow for more cooling.

Whilst waiting for the paint to harden off I decided to fit the new turbo, Gt3076. After having it powdercoated..

Also I have started on the rear bumper, have removed the fog light and smoothed in the number plate surround,

http://i136.photobucket.com/albums/q168/nismo9/200SX%202007-8/rearbumper1.jpg

Hi m8 , as you can see from the white floor it was all sprayed in the garage. I was hopeing to have it on the road early april gut due to the fact I have had too strip it down so far and spray everything seperatly, it has taken so much longer. Still should be done end off May.

I was just about to ask a similar question, is the number plate surround custom or a modified original??, would love to see a couple of close up pics if thats ok?.

I want to make up something custom to replace the standard surround, the bumper needs spraying and i hate that big lump of plastic on the back. :whip:

20-05-2008, 15:16
This is how I did the rear bumper.

Remove numberplate surround

You then have to cut down the surround to fit snugly inside the bumper, you have to cut off the fog light parts. Then cut about 10mm all the way round out off the bumper if memory serves me wright.

I got some 4mm abs plastic and cut it out to fit where the fog light holes are.

Then using some abs plastic as backing strips screw this to the inside off the bumper and the plastic filling peices and surround. Also bonded in place using seam sealer.

This holds all the parts flush.

Then with a sanding wheel rough all surfaces and fill with flexible filler.

Then it should look something like this

I think this looks awsome, cant wait to see it when its finished :notworthy

I have a spare front bumper, you dont fancy doing the same with mine at a cost do ya? :)

I was thinking off having molds made off both front and rear bumpers later this year and then selling them if there is interest.

Yes you will need a shorter alternator belt and a longer power steering belt. Sorting it this week so will let you know the sizes..

The indicators are where the side lights were. I have replaced the side lights with a ultra bright LED's in the main beam reflectors.

The side repeaters I am not to sure about, would like too leave them out but not to sure on the legalities off doing so. Can anyone help on that.

I think any lights you use have to be approved but I may be wrong.

The paint is an Acrylic 2K pure white.

An underdrive crank pulley is a pulley that is smaller than the standard pulley in diameter.

It runs the ancillaries ( alternator ) slower so they take less power from the engine. In theory..

Glad you like it, One thing do not use any alloy polishing products on it as it will ruin the clear powdercoat.

Just use soap and water..
