And when Damon has another child his priorities will change to an STi wagon or maybe a Nissan Stagea 260RS (when they exceed the 25yr importing law).

hobbs · 12-03-2012, 09:00 PM

Glad you finally found one! As much as I like evo's I'm really happy to have sold mine. I have some parts that did not sell with mine so if you're looking for anything let me know.

Looks like you need a set of these

You guys are right- I owe everyone here on the internet an explanation for my actions. Here is the real reason I parted ways with my car:

To be truthful, the light output was so atrocious on my mid-90s Nissan sports car that I couldn't live with myself anymore, knowing that my actions were making night time driving unsafe for myself and others on the road. That is why I made the decision to part ways with the car and purchase a car with the proper factory lighting output, cutoff, projectors, and USDM-friendly beam pattern.

I didn't want to get sell my 240 and purchase an Evo, but it is what had to be done for the good of humanity and CLEARCORNERS.COM.

It may seem irrelevant at the moment Steven, but I assure you that when my overnight parts arrive from Japan, this thread will be more than relevant to Zilvia. Please see a mock up of my plans for the Evo below:

I hope that now that you know this, you'll find it in your heart to allow me to stay.

Hope to go IX front eventually, but I guess we'll see what happens.

As was apparent from my 240, I have always been a ricer. This was just par for the course, and another result of my post-child, mid-life crisis.

If not, then I guess I'll have to hit up EVOM

Thanks man- there is a thread over on EVOM going now. I'll keep this updated when I can, as long as the mods don't object. Happy to stop if they have a problem with it though.

I'm happy you were able to sell yours! It really sounded like a beautiful car. It was just a little more car than I needed at the time, haha. I'll shoot you a PM!

Haha S15 front end jokes never get old. And I have no problem with you still being here sharing your Evo build with us, but at this point, I think a new thread is required.

future · 12-04-2012, 09:52 AM

We have FD build threads. I don't think a evo build thread on here would matter

gbaby2089 · 12-04-2012, 10:14 AM

Everyone is already subscribed to this thread. A new one would be silly.

ixfxi · 12-04-2012, 10:24 AM

you guys may feel that this thread is not valid anymore, and that it doesnt belong in zilvia because its about some fucking Mitsushitty.... but i can personally guarantee you all that this is just a temporary hiatus.

you see, damon will be purchasing a 240sx again in about 10 years.

future · 12-04-2012, 10:28 AM

They will be like s30s by then

ixfxi · 12-05-2012, 10:13 AM

those depo lights were so dope - they looked so jay-dee-emm, damon

I can not confirm or deny this statement, lol.

Sorry to let you down, man. I actually just purchased the fine JAY-DEE-EMM lights that Hobbs posted previously in this thread, so I will be sure to contact you when the dope has (hopefully) been restored.

I got my parts from my ol' pal Russell at MitsubishiParts.net last night- congrats to that dude on the birth of his third son last week!

Heater hoses (I believe one of mine is leaking)
Steering column cover (to remove the gauges currently located there)
Center trim bezel (to have my gauges molded into)
Radio cubby relocation
HVAC Labels for center trim bezel
MR shifter trim panel (Mine was painted black when I got the car and it bothered me)
JDM MR badge for shifter trim (ricer)
MR shift boot (backordered until next week)

The interior should be back to factory condition after I install these items. I'm just waiting on my ash tray, and then I will more or less have everything I need. I held onto some items from my 240 to use in the Evo: Defi Advance CR gauges, Takata harness, and a Broadway mirror. The mirror probably seems kind of lame, but I have had it in every car I have ever owned, so I'm just used to the view with it now. I won't use the harness unless I install an aftermarket seat at some point.

I'm really excited about having my good friend Tony Boardfeld mold the gauges for me. A quick mock up of my setup before shipping them off:

And a better shot of the ARC panel that I still haven't installed, lol.

Drift_This · 12-05-2012, 07:14 PM

Very nice Damon. Keep up the good work

killer240 · 12-05-2012, 07:24 PM

...and as we all know, it will just keep getting better!

Evo's are sick, I always wanted to get the VIII MR ever since it came out! too bad I'm a broke ass. Can't wait to see what wheels will be slapped on this tuner.

drscooper · 12-05-2012, 09:15 PM

very nice man

towlie · 12-05-2012, 11:06 PM

...just delete that heater already

MeSs · 12-06-2012, 05:37 AM

Do you have wallpaper size pics of the S13?:-)

Broadfield · 12-06-2012, 09:14 AM

This car is just going to end up being as riced out as the last one. Well, except for the custom gauge setup of course... that Troy Bradford does some pretty good work. Or at least that's what my buddy with a gull-wing door Civic told me.

ixfxi · 12-06-2012, 10:08 AM

Driftpretty · 12-06-2012, 10:16 AM

Didn't you know that's his Fast and Furious Street Racer name.

holemilk00 · 12-06-2012, 08:09 PM

So did you box up left over parts from your S13 (defi's and Takata's) for dramatic effect or did you actually sell your old stuff and then buy the exact same stuff new?

haha, don't you do that too? I thought all the cool guys did that? that's the only reason I keep all my boxes. Shit

Elvin Wes · 12-07-2012, 12:53 AM

Darren · 12-07-2012, 07:39 AM

Leave Britney... i mean Damon... alone!! *sob* *sob*

haha, but seriously, Evo's looking good. Glad you're not listening to any of the nonsense... do what you want man, it's your $ and your life...

I actually thought about leaving my gauges and harness in a filthy, tangled pile in the corner of my garage where they would constantly be kicked/stepped on/etc. But I decided that putting them back in the boxes and storing them neatly within my home would be the smarter solution.

Removed rear emblem. Next objective: take care of that pesky exhaust...

killer240 · 12-07-2012, 11:58 AM

take care of those tail lights..

"Too much RED" isn't in Damon's vocabulary. And the wolrd is a better place for it.
