Where did you get it?

I had THAT headunit in my s14 for a while.
The double DIN one that folds down and has the casette deck in there too.
Mine worked perfect with a converter.

I sold it to somebody local a while ago.

UPDATE- nothing big but i have lots of pics. seriously i just spent a few hours cleaning the shop and now its ready for my s13 besides that i went up to the barn and went through all my parts to see what i have, what i need etc and i have pics of lots of the parts ready to go on. after all that i talked to my dad about putting my car in the shop. he's crazy anal about how he likes everything up there so he set some ground rules the game plan is to get it in there in the next day or so, we just have to push the chevelle out and pull the diesel out as well, my 240 will go in the back over the pit. enough words, on to the pics!!!! just fyi- theres a number of pics that are not 240 related at all

picked the tape off the lenses so its ready to go on. got the tape off the mirrors on the sun visors as well


finished shot of the flcas ready to go on

for these pics i went up to my stock pile


my rear seat and 3 se wheels with tires


daytona blue anyone? :naughty


little pile of fc parts from when i pulled the motor


pignose bumper and pass side fender


pignose seats and my grandpa's 58 chevy apache fender in the back


basically a pile of excess wiring. its the base model body harness. its great to keep around for extending wiring since you can find oe colored wiring to use


pile of interior and headlight cover


xs power manifold, stock steering wheel and act clutch box containing s14 tension rods with es bushings (fs btw)


random wall of valve covers

on to some of my fc parts.

autovation pedals. i bought them from an rx7club member brand new. autovation did the pedals for Elanor in gone in 60 seconds (fun fact)

close up of the sickness


fake RE-A oil cap


apexi turbo timer. i bought it on ebay a few years ago for $25



sexy dual alternator pulley


sliverstar headlights still in the box, i've had em for over a year


sick eclipse components speakers i got at a steal of a price



exedy clutch


closer shot of the manifold


my KA trans. you can see chevy v8 parts laying around


back room cleaned up


the truck will move forward and i'll take the spot where the truck is.


like i said, i didn't get much done, but i hope those of you that are bored enjoyed all the pics

it's been awhile since im not on zilvia much, but i'll give you the shortened version. since the last update in here, the car has been in and out of the garage.



the engine was pulled out of the old car


i took the time with the engine out, to clean it up as well as replace some things. the turbo needed a good scrubbing.

dirty



clean


old manifold versus new


i made a few cuts between the runners to help prevent cracking


the front wheel wells got truck bed lined and the car is now sitting with kybs on all 4 corners


shitty cell pic, but the engine on a stand ready to be taken care of


my paint booth


engine cleaned and painted



nismo mounts


keegan doing wiring







kyle touching up the engine bay


turbo bolted to manifold


the wiring in the dash area





then this happened

no biggie, though i just went with cs lines


rad support cut to clear the fmic

ic mounted



ka trans with sr bell housing



had the vc sandblasted (for free )


went with gloss black and some clear


engine harness wiring complete and covered with sexy techflex





harness off the engine


the wiring diagram


my optima red top



replaced the rear main seal


nismo flywheel on


exedy stage1 ready to go on

with the vc on, its starting to look really good



alum steering bushing and ssqv flange (returning the flange since i need a steel one )



trans dapt oil filter relocation kit



new filter vs. old


clutch on



new exhaust studs



the interior slowly going back in


battery relocation


trans bolted on


actually had to take it off twice since this shot. the rear main seal had leaked a little since the one lower stud was loose in the cover, and the 2nd time because the trans kinda locked up. everything is good to go now though

replacing the steering bushing was a bitch





z31 slave cylinder


sohc ps line removed


5spd swapping










battery ground and power ran



dohc ps lines on


and finally the moment i've been waiting for....the engine is in!







cut the cold pipe for the flange to mount the ssqv over there. (was originally on the hot pipe)



Cody cutting the ic piping hole


the ssqv had yellowed and was looking pretty bad, but i got it cleaned up like new in no time





cold pipe, mocked up


map light wired in


brackets made for manual seatbelts


b&m installed


extended the plugs for the lower trans harness



i also cut out the wiring for the other trans sensors besides the vss and reverse sensor

the 0 ga run into the splitter

cas cover painted


heres the garage cleaned up with the s13 ready to be rolled back out




and heres both s13s sitting outside



the door of the black one blew open and did this


kyle installed the c pillar bar





the turbo fitting i needed came in

test fitted

i don't even feel like fixing the pics now and the next update won't be for a while. i'm working open to close a lot recently and just got done with a 16 hour shift now. the good news is i shoudl be able to buy the last of the parts i need since i'm working so much. but right now its off to bed, since i have to be back at work in 7.5 hours
