I'm digging the blacked out engine bay. Hope you are doing something with those fenders, cause those wheels are gonna rip them right off.

 

looking good......really good

 

Please change your retarded username.. ballingmiami

 

lol........stance and tire set up have not been finalized. I'm locking my self in the garage this weekend and try to finish this piece.

 

Congrats on well put together car. looks good

 

nice, did pfs rebuild the engine?

 

Why the hell is the turbo compressor cover purple? Everything was looking great and well matched color wise until I saw that.

 

Your gunna have a **** load fun with that bad boy!

240's are sick and I love them to death but the FD is just a whole other level.

 

Looking good. I like the look of the 5zigen wheels a lot better than the originals.

Speaking of wheels; what kind were on the 240? I've seen them on an FD in the forum but I don't know all the brands and models very well.

gary

 

Welcome aboard the death wagon. Beutiful build. And the only thing i can tell you is... for every 1 grand you spent on your 240, your going to spend 3 grand on the FD.


but for some ******* reason... its all worth it.

 

I agree with you on that. A full origin body kit for a 240 is like $900. i thought that was expensive. I come over the darkside and just front bumbers cost $650 + shipping...lol. BUT I must admit that I will be ordering an spending an *** load on this car.

The wheels on my old 240 where work emotions cr kai's 18x9.5 +12 all around.

 

thats funny cause I just did the same thing. I sold my S14 and picked up a FD also

 

how'd u do your mocal setup? was it hard to route the line and are u happy with it? anything u would do different? have about a writeup of what fittings and hoses u used. and what about a oil thermostat?

 

LOL @ +12 offsets.

 

i dont think he put those wheels on the fd tho ^^

 

My FD has the Works on it. I dont like them on my FD but your s14 was damn sexy with those wheels. Congrats on the FD.

 

Mocal set up:

I got my oil system button up:

We will start off with the re-speed oil pedestule. The fram oil filter is there for mock up. lol......pedestule to -10 120* an fitting

Mocal oil cooler stat 180*
fittings are 1 -10 straight, 1 -10 90*, 2 -10 45's. I also made a bracket where the a/c compressor would go to mount the stat

from the stat to the 25 row oil coolers

-10 120* and a -10 90* on passenger side oil cooler

crossing over the FMIC to driver side oil cooler

-10 90* to mocal 25 row -10 120* to mocal stat.

 

wow the 5-Zigen blacks actually look pretty good on a black FD. Ihad a set of the bronzes on my old 240 and that wheel was well played out in the nissan circles.


I might have to think about another set one day.

 

your FD is far sexier than your old S14! Ive always loved those rims youve got on the fd

 

He is selling them. NIce build, i can't wait to start mine this winter!!

 

awesome build. finally some nice fitting wheels on here(imo,save the drama).good luck with the rest of it.black on black looks tough as hell.

 

10 bucks says you're scratchin your doughnutz!

Good thing your cigarette is in the "other" hand.

 

wow nice build up congrats cant wait to see it all done you should post vid of first start up
