wow looking really nice. awesome suspension set up. engine is looking awesome.

[ALTRNTV]

SICK.

We do have a Picture Thread.

[aznpoopy]

nice pics. that looked like it was an awful lot of work.

^^ true we have the pic thread. i wonder if this falls under the normal classification of car pics though. this is something different and far more interesting then the typical 'car at an angle in a empty parking deck with harsh lighting' pics.

[veilside180sx]

I was reading through the post locations and couldn't decide where it fit, but didn't want it to get buried amongst 8 million random pics. So move it if one must, but I'd like to be able to continue to add to it. Without other persons pictures involved if at all possible.=)

[MakotoS13]

i like it.

good job.

seriously, I mean...if I post a pic of something broken on my car are you gonna tell me to post it in the picture thread?

If he had posted it in the Picture Thread, no one could ask questions except through PM...then the he's be getting a ton of PM's all asking the same thing.

Anyway, what kind of power of are expecting out of this thing?

[exitspeed]

Nice stuff! All that effort and then such weak size wheels????

On the stock block we'll hold the reigns back to between 300-350 rwhp.

When the built block goes in we're looking for somewhere in the 500-low 600 rwhp range.=)

[veilside180sx]

I expected complaints about the wheels, they were purchased a year ago previous to the 17x9 +20 being released. They work fine though. I would like run small spacers to squeeze 245's on them though.

[JaeTea]

Nice!

So this setup will be running on a stock block?

[veilside180sx]

For now..yes. I have my spare on a stand 1/2 stripped, waiting to go to the machinest. I just can't afford the parts for it right now, since I'm been undertaking the rest of this lately.

sweet setup. In the armed forces? Your boots n fatigues give it away.

Happy boosting, and post up the dyno when you get it done!

[Flybert]

This project must be taking you a long ass time. I say that because you have the old version of the SPL RUCA's. How long has that thing been on jackstands? I got the blue RUCA's too. Bought them on here almost 2 years ago when SPL had a GB to promote their stuff. Done 15+ drift events on them as well as the SPL tension rods and they've held up nicely. I like your subframe.

Since your subframe is off, you should trade your subframe spacers for the type that doesn't have a slit in the spacer.

[DrIvEsldEwAyS]

very nice man.

[smellslikecurry]

wow you must have a lot of time and patience...the project is coming along great and i cant wait to see the finished product...keep up the amazing work

[infinitexsound]

dope, one hell of a project to do all at once... MAD PROPZZ.......are u going to powdercoat the valve cover?

[Nan Desu Ka?!]

wow, super clean setup! thats gonna be one fast ass coupe.

nice snail... that thing is HUGE. :P keep us posted mang!

You are only the second person to catch the "old" RUCA's. The other was Alan that worked there.=) Actually I had them on another car that was recently hit. So those were just swapped from the other one. Well I had subframe spacers, then switched to these ES bushings, but today I found out one of my nephews lost one while playing with it. So I guess I'm going to purchase SPL aluminum ones. Sucks though, I've had to rebuy numerous parts for this thing, with all the changes that have happened. I've been through two turbo manifolds, 3 turbos, etc.=) I've owned this one for 3 months, but I've been gathering turbo parts for 18. Either way..it's too long to not be having fun with it.

FYI I'm not in the military. Old paintball clothing.

[SochBAT]

Damn, you coulda jsut been cool and said something like "yea, i pwn all those commies with my M4. They regret eating my rations."

[veilside180sx]

Could've, but don't like to front something I'm not.=)

[veilside180sx]

All the rear suspension is installed finally=). As well as the wheels. It's ready to be dropped on the ground with the exception of us breaking 2 jacks in the process. Should be running in the next 2 weeks if all goes well.

Have pics but accidently burned the wrong ones on the cd that I burned. So I'll post those later this weekend.

[CKAMC]

dude your car is HOT! love the fact that you *and one of the few out there* kept their single cams and went turbo with it. everyone keeps bashing a single but compared to a DE Sr it kicks major ass stil! hell you can get the single to breath just as good as a dual depending on how you set it up.

I found out thru a lot of the old Z tunnerz that if you were to look around hard there are stores about people who have made massive power on their ka24e's back in the day.

[reefer1114]

thats fucking bad ass!!! but why not spend the extra money for a decent lsd? seems like youre going all out on everything else¿

[veilside180sx]

Eventually I'll wind up with a Nismo 1.5 way clutch LSD. For now though I have to work with what I can afford. Cash is running out and I recently took a hefty pay cut switching jobs. So I'm having to buy parts that I probably wouldn't otherwise buy for some things.=(

[chlatboy]

Nice setup. But why did you decide to go SINGLE and not DUAL?

[420sx]

SINGLE IS dirt CHEAP if not free most of the time.

[chlatboy]

True, and he is doing a rebuilt so that takes care of the mileage problem.
