93 SR Hatch build in the Mitten State - Page 15 - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

CamryOnBronze · 07-15-2010, 12:07 PM

Thanks a lot guys! I really have to give huge props to Russell @ NissanParts.cc, in a non-advertising way- he is a super cool guy that has helped me out a ton, and I couldn't have gotten this thing back together without him! The same goes for Edgar at Swapped- always hooking me up!

I just ordered a hose to recirculate the BOV, so that will be here tomorrow and go on on Sunday or Monday. I can't wait to pull it out on the street... I'll for sure get some pics and video!

And thanks for the anniversary well wishes too!

My wife is awesome- I give her so much credit for putting up with me and this car! lol...

That's the number one priority. "Happy wife happy life". My wife has done the same for me. Our anniversary is also coming pretty soon. I hope you enjoy yours. I'm glad your car is running again. Just like everybody, I can't wait for pics.

CamryOnBronze · 07-16-2010, 07:45 AM

^ Thanks man, congrats to you too!

I still don't have the ride height right, but I will need to see it out on the street to get it perfect. I didn't plan on doing anything with the car last night, but Alicia got me/us a Cannon Rebel XT for our anniversary! Super awesome- I have wanted a nice camera for a really long time. So, naturally, I had to take some pics!

I don't really know how to use it yet, so I'm sure the pics will get a lot better. I didn't even know how to turn the flash off when I took these, haha. The front coils are currently maxed out- might need to remove a collar up there:

I haven't messed with the camber yet from the previous chunky tire setup out back, so that is on the list as well:

Alicia showin' off her sweet ride, haha. She wanted a picture since she is the "bride" :lol::

If you see things missing our routed really poorly, they will be corrected- promise! haha Some things are just mocked up at this point:

So yeah- updates with the car washed, running, and out of the garage sometime next week when I get back!

niteridaz503 · 07-16-2010, 09:35 AM

damn your car looks bad ass man, really like the turn out. Cant wait for more updates lol

See, now you are just showing off!

va240dude · 07-16-2010, 05:57 PM

Looking cleeeeaaaaaaaannnnn, but even cleaner when you get that fresh coat of wax on! You'll enjoy the Canon once you learn how to use it-great gift!

holemilk00 · 07-16-2010, 06:14 PM

Haha I see why you don't bring the wife to the BBQ's around here Damon, all the hard up guys there would make her feel like a piece of meat.

Car looks great, when do I get to see it in person?

icedsole · 07-16-2010, 07:09 PM

quality ass car, hi 5.

LOL, yeah man, gotta keep her away! Hopefully soon bro... would love to contract you guys to come out and help me with my tune soon!

tricky_ab · 07-20-2010, 10:38 AM

Man seeing cars like this makes the wait for my next car to be legalized in Canada that much harder! I know I've said this before but man your car looks wonderful! Keep it up!

dopplganger1 · 07-20-2010, 11:56 AM

were did you purchase this hose to recirculate your bov, i tried regular hose but it just kinks and doesnt seem like it would be to efficent, my bov is at the same location just on the other side of the pipe and goes to a apexi suction kit pipe and the hose has to make a sharp u. thanks

CamryOnBronze · 07-20-2010, 12:19 PM

Thanks Tricky_ab!

dopplganger1, I am sorting that issue out at the moment. I bought a 1.25" flex radiator hose from SummitRacing.com to use for recirculation, but the hose ID is too large to fit on the GReddy and HKS recirculation fittings. I am not very happy with my BOV mounting, so I actually got another hot pipe and flange to have it positioned lower down the hot pipe toward the fender well. I'm thinking that if I do it that way, I can run the recirculation hose straight to the intake and there won't be any kinks in the hose.

I am not sure that this is the best location for the BOV, but I might give it a shot. I agree, though- it's really frustrating trying to find a solution for that issue.

Dirty Habit · 07-20-2010, 05:46 PM

Hey, shoot me a Pm if you ever want to meet up and go for a cruise. Fixing some electrical issues on the Z but it should be back on the road in a week or so.

CamryOnBronze · 07-22-2010, 08:53 AM

^ For sure!

Fired it up again last night and let it run a bit longer. The fuel leak is solved, but now there was a coolant leak. I believe it is one of the lines on the head back near the firewall- the ones that suck to get to. lol. So, I need to sort that out. It was idling at about 1700 RPM even after setting the TPS, so I think the IACV needs to be adjusted. It was also idle hunting while it was running- constantly going back and forth from higher to lower.

I have the injector values and MAF entered in the Power FC, but not the rest of the base tune. It sounds like a couple friends might be out next weekend to help get the timing and Power FC all sorted out, since I have no clue what I am doing, to be totally honest.

I snapped a couple pictures for the hell of it, lol. Got the front lip and the sideskirt extensions installed. I just thought it looked cool in the garage with the hood up- I love how the car and the bay look, I just need it to be drivable now! lol

kyles1988 · 07-22-2010, 10:06 AM

what would it take to get you to sell this?

90hatchie · 07-22-2010, 10:19 AM

a million dollars

CamryOnBronze · 07-22-2010, 11:04 AM

I'd probably bite for like $18k or something crazy like that, lol.

gsr-boost-dc · 07-22-2010, 11:26 AM

I like it man. Good work!

Sam_Well.13 · 07-22-2010, 11:37 AM

holy shit!... read this build thread from page 1 to now, and i gotta tell you, very impress with your work..good stuff

real great job man.

hockeyrules · 07-22-2010, 12:33 PM

this is exactly what i dream of ha

va240dude · 07-22-2010, 04:48 PM

Did you install a new iacv or clean out the old one? They can get pretty dirty and cause all types of issues. Oh did you send out my lights yet?

S13 curtis · 07-22-2010, 04:54 PM

damn dude i wish mine was that freaking clean! im so jelous

RurouniMidnight · 07-22-2010, 05:01 PM

Such a wonderful car i love it man.

Landers · 07-22-2010, 05:57 PM

SO awesome. Cant wait to see this at final ride height

I used a used one that came with my intake manifold that was supposedly pretty much new and cleaned it before I installed it, but yeah, I should just replace it. I was going to, but they were backordered. :/

Z33dori · 07-24-2010, 11:44 AM

i love this car..... the bay looks sick

just need polished CR-KAIs

but i would rock it as is.... You gonna slide it?

CamryOnBronze · 07-25-2010, 08:36 PM

Thanks for all the compliments guys! I can't wait until it is FINALLY tuned and totally street worthy.

I totally wish mine were polished or WMB... would be sweet! And I dunno about sliding it... I'm too poor after building it to slide it, lol. I'm a hard parker at heart, but we'll see- maybe someday.

tricky_ab · 07-25-2010, 08:40 PM

I would have to pour a 40 out if you somehow messed this up on the track. A good friend told me something that I think about every time I hit the track... "Expect to mess something up!"

Z33dori · 07-26-2010, 06:27 AM

well lmk if you want a video made of your car. I have buddy that does good work. if your interested here is some of his work.
