I'm excited to announce that thejdm is now updated to the latest phpbb 3.2 software. You may notice the site is now mobile friendly but with the upgrade comes some hiccups. theGarage, theGallery, theArcade are no longer supported. In due time the developers should be working to release the modifications to work on the new software. #LetsMakeForumsGreatAgain

My shits in boxes: the story of my car not being built.

Post by Prok0 » December 20, 2007

So, my car is down right now, it currently looks like this.. Image In this pic you can kind of see my block, in a box with a towel over it under my bumper on the left, pretty awesome stuff. Image And its looked like that for probably the last 3 months.. well, except the motor being yanked like 3 weeks ago..

I got bored one day and kinda put my brakes on, but didnt bleed them because I got lazy and there was noone else there. Image And heres a bunch of sweet shit in boxes, and the best swiffer vac ever. Image My head, in a box. Image Image New wiring harness Image More shit in boxes. Image Shit taken out of its box. Image More shit in a box. Image And then I got bored and painted my intake manifold, except only the upper half because I didnt have any allen keys to pull the TB off and I got over doing it. Image My crank in a bag, and my bellhousing on top of a box, and a bunch of other shit thrown in boxes. Image And I got a few more sweet boxes with shit in them, But I didnt take any pictures.
S14.. Currently motorless.

Werd, I just need to hopefully get a little dough for x-mas, sell some shit off my old motor, and finish up with this.. because not driving my car blows.

Hell yeah, money for xmas = finished cars.

Whenever I just ask for car parts for xmas, it's like I'm asking for crack.

People don't like it...

At least you have boxes of stuff. I have parts that I need to ship out which means I have to box them, put up money, and get them back. I'm a few steps behind on my next parts.

Update: Shits not done yet.

Head is being deburred, valves lapped, assembled, and shimmed.

Wiring harness is being modified and having some baller custom shit put in it, like sweet ass deutsch connectors like these being put in for various cool stuffs. Image And it looks like I might sell my KA turbo kit this week and get the money I need to finish up buying the last few pieces I need, and get a rom tune, and then hopefully the week after that my friend is going to assemble the motor.

Awesome.

Oh yeah, and I had a spare front bumper so I went and cut it out to make a huge ass opening for the FMIC because Im a ricer. It turned out pretty sweet, I'll take some pics when I find a camera. I'll probably use it as a track bumper, or just to stunt around when I wanna act like Im a baller or something.
