and my diff from a s14 automatic

http://i299.photobucket.com/albums/mm281/hondabus/100_3579.jpg

[-***JOKER***-]

mate why did you use s14 automatic diff??

[Evilchap]

S14a auto diff is really short, faster acceleration ;)

[MarcRRN]

spot on and also i shouldnt of had the same beating that a manual would

[-***JOKER***-]

i guess it is shorter on the final gear...

[MarcRRN]

i got told it is the same ratio as the s13 cos a manual s14 is different

but even better my new turbo has just arrived:):):):)

i will put picks up later

[MarcRRN]

ok i know just about every one has seen a gt28r turbo, but i have never seen one let alone owned one, so am amazed:D:D

[MarcRRN]

your putting a lot of work into this...jus wondering where are you gettin most of your parts.bushes and anti roll bars and all that??need them for my own car:rolleyes:are you gonna get the body sprayed eventually?:thumbs:

i actually get alot of the parts off ebay ie. tien springs, wossner pistons ths conrods, front and rear fenders,strut braces, oil cooler.

the bushes and anti roll bars came from apex and driftworks, the anti roll bars were a group buy.

i have also put an order for a carbon tailgate from srb.

and the car will be getting a lovely new lick of paint when im happy with the bodywork.

[MarcRRN]

ok first chance to get on the ramp.

http://i299.photobucket.com/albums/mm281/hondabus/100_4214.jpg

am just going to get him to weld anything that needs it.

[diamondsink]

welds look good but make sure you clean all the rust off or you'll be back were you started in a year or so.

[MarcRRN]

yeh i know, that was welded a while back, need to clean it up and finish it.

but my brothers welds have not failed yet, like cars he has welded over 5 years ago, so heres hoping.

[MarcRRN]

once again finding it hard to find time to work on this, but got some and started to take the sound deadening out

http://i299.photobucket.com/albums/mm281/hondabus/100_4266.jpg

hks turbo timer is almost fitted and then its onto wiring my s2000 starter button:D
next on the interior list is to cut the holes in my rear panels for the cage and fit it, and then to get a price of my friend for his lovely set of red sparco's :nod:.
for the exterior i need to chop the offside arch and then fit the new rear quarter panels.
i also got a new set of rear lights, these ones.

[MarcRRN]

http://i299.photobucket.com/albums/mm281/hondabus/100_5211.jpg

[MarcRRN]

ok bit of an update. at the weekend i got the passenger rear fender fitted.

drivers side

http://i299.photobucket.com/albums/mm281/hondabus/100_6006.jpg

passenger side

http://i299.photobucket.com/albums/mm281/hondabus/100_6007.jpg

[MarcRRN]

found an old phone pic of my first s13, check the colour

http://i299.photobucket.com/albums/mm281/hondabus/Nissan.jpg

[johnpaul200sx]

serious build,best of luck with it.

[MarcRRN]

cheers, but its not luck am needing, its money.

[M.D.]

nice work mate, those rear arches are uber wide,

whats the little ally plate by the inner rear edge of the back wheels for, rivveted to the inner arch lip,

[MarcRRN]

nice work mate, those rear arches are uber wide,

whats the little ally plate by the inner rear edge of the back wheels for, rivveted to the inner arch lip,

the arches are really wide so now i have to find wide wheels to go with them... was thinking of rota GTR's 17x9.5 et12

its not an ally plate that was on the car its a sheet of rubber, think its to try and stop crap hitting the exhaust from the wheel.

[MarcRRN]

got the other rear fender held on in place and lined up, took a fair bit of sanding but now its ready to secure properly.

http://i299.photobucket.com/albums/mm281/hondabus/100_6035.jpg

http://i299.photobucket.com/albums/mm281/hondabus/100_6034.jpg

[MarcRRN]

sat the rear bumper in place (needs slight adjustment), what do you guys think???

http://i299.photobucket.com/albums/mm281/hondabus/100_6156.jpg

http://i299.photobucket.com/albums/mm281/hondabus/100_6159.jpg

http://i299.photobucket.com/albums/mm281/hondabus/100_6160.jpg

[Nize]

Sweet as mate... gonna look top notch! :)

Hard to tell, but the rear bumper just looks like it needs a touch of 'adjustment' to get it to sit dead-centre of the rear of the car... really suits it tho, a pretty different rear IMO. :)

Hope you're gonna use both those exhaust cutouts tho... or hide the rhs one. ;)

really looking good tho mate... keep up the good work. :)

Nize.

[MarcRRN]

well the exhaust i have only uses the left, i woul like two but it means a custom exhaust.
but on a good note the tow eye sits there, so i could get the wee red tow sticker??

[murray]

good project you have there!! comng along nice.

[Nize]

Yeah mate, not a bad idea... if you tarted up the towing eye and made a feature of it, it'd look pretty cool. :)

[MarcRRN]

well managed to do some work today.

i made a battery tray, its simple but does the job.

http://i299.photobucket.com/albums/mm281/hondabus/100_6161.jpg

and started cutting the rear panels for the cage.

http://i299.photobucket.com/albums/mm281/hondabus/100_6164.jpg

and i have also decided to change the bodykit, as i will have to cut my new front fenders just for the front bumper, and i dont want to do that.

[MarcRRN]

ok be ages since i last updated.

so the cage is now fitted

http://i299.photobucket.com/albums/mm281/hondabus/100_6499.jpg
http://i299.photobucket.com/albums/mm281/hondabus/100_6500.jpg

http://i299.photobucket.com/albums/mm281/hondabus/100_6502.jpg


and the kit i got is a bastard to fit, so for the time being i am going to fit the standard bumpersfor the lwo and wide look.

so i am on the scrounge i need one of these for the drivers side wing.

http://i299.photobucket.com/albums/mm281/hondabus/100_6504.jpg

[kingj]

Love the interior work mate and the arches but Im really not a fan of your front and rear bumpers:( it will look better with standard imo:thumbs: good luck with it though and keep up the good work:)

[a_ahmed]

This looks like a fun project i wana see it finished :D

[MarcRRN]

ok funds have put hold on everything so i have been trying to get the bodywork done as the front wings are a bit of a bugger to get sitting right.
so here are a couple of pics as she sits.

as it is ment to be great weather this week i hope to get the front end built back up in no time so i can focus on any repairs needed in the engine bay.

i am in two minds about seam welding the engine bay, should i or shouldn't i??

[MarcRRN]

got a fair bit done today during my lunch hour and a bit after work.

i got the bushes burnt out the suspension arms and the tie rodsthen i went over them with the needle gun to get the flakey crap off them, got the new s14 ball joints in and now they have a nice coat of hammerite, but i dont have pictures yet but i will get them up tomorrow with the new poly bushes.

ok been without internet for a bit but work has carried on.
i have done the welding that was needed under the bonnet and painted it, it looked the titties but then i started undersealing, when i was done i stood up and remembered i never masked or covered any holes and the result was black shite speceled over my lovely white paint.

i got myself some apex brake hoses the other day and finally got some decent weather and got them fitted today plus replaced all the brake lines along with the z32 BMC, but on the down side the batteries gave up on the camera so no pics yet.

i am trying to figure out ways to earn more money so i can speed this thing along, so any ideas you guys have let me know.

[MarcRRN]

first update of the year and about bloody time. after a long hard think about if i should get rid or keep it and finish it, i decided to keep it.

so trying to do get the body finished this is how she sits at the moment, with loads left to do.
