And I guarantee you Damon's hatch rattled 5 times more than your stock Evo.... you guys are totally missing the point. We are comparing an Evo to Damon's hatch... not your 20 year old Honda or my 57' Chevy.

At my last BBQ Damon went on a test drive with my good friend in his Evo. I'm sure Damon can compare the Evo to his 240 very easily.

CamryOnBronze · 11-01-2012, 11:22 AM

Yeah dude, Brad's evo on Cusco coilovers felt like a Mercedes compared to my hatch, LOL. Not that ride quality is my main concern in a daily vehicle...

I suppose I'll take this opportunity (before Mike and Toby take over my thread, as planned by Toby) to post up the final shots of the car I took before I tore it apart a couple of weeks ago. Feel free to read a bit more rambling here if you'd like to.

Somehow I managed to miss taking a shot or two of the bay. Here's one that was taken by Loren just a week earlier when I was down at Toby and Kyle's:

I've got some final comparison shots I'll post up soon as well. Thanks to everyone that has read this build over the years- appreciate it!

Conrad 2NR · 11-01-2012, 12:45 PM

Poor Corbic. :-)

Man, link to your live-journal? I'm starting to think it's filled with Corbic x Camry fan-fiction courteously of ixfxi.

aren't they all the same? I think you mean the cross bar it's an add on and is adjustable.

really? i always thought it was pre-welded on tab, b/c everyone keeps the triangulation over the passenger sides. learned something new

did they change the design?

kyles1988 · 11-02-2012, 07:27 AM

That is a "7 point" cusco cage. Dadmon's is a 6 with add on bar.

You guys arent comparing apples with apples. You cant compare an old piece of shit with a new piece of shit. Give the Evo time to degrade like EVERY mitsushitty does, and it too will rattle just like every Eagle Talon or GSX Eclipse does. I remember when the 2g Eclipse came out, that was some hot fire... until it aged. Fucking car looks ugly as fucking hell nowadays.. and they've all fallen apart. I like Evos, I like the Impreza.. but they're all garbage cans if you ask me. Mercedes? Garbage can. All of these cars fall apart with their bullshit clips that break. ALL CARS. Want your car to stay rattle free? Leave it alone. 100% stock. Never remove a panel. Enjoy said car.

No, I have a career.. you guys only get me during cereal time. Fuck you and help me with my 1LR-GUE v10 swap. And I'm not paying you a dime either. You do that shit for free.

Damon, you should know better... no one reads that shit. Didnt you learn anything from Wayne T Edwards? NO ONE reads blogs.. only 12 year old kids who dream about riding around in a black, excessively lowered 240, with big red batman seats that cover the side of your face seriously impairing your vision, and a bunch of funky braces that will never be used because you only drive your car to get groceries and to Toby's BBQ.

Hey Damon, I have read through your build many times. The car was very beautiful! I was a little sad to see you part it out, but I understand your reasoning. I have a quick question, I have been wanting to go Type X front bumper and just piece together the rest as money allows. What all do I need for the front bumper to fit correctly? Of course bumper and fender extender pieces and the lights, but what about actually mounting the bumper? Sorry for the dumb question, I have searched a lot and I can't seem to find a straight forward answer. Thanks in advance!

I'm not Damon, but, everything you need and everything required for the bumper to fit OEM is here..

NissanParts.cc - Your #1 Source for OEM Parts and Accessories

Great site for buying the parts as your wallet allows.

CamryOnBronze · 11-06-2012, 01:22 PM

^ That's about what I would say! haha.

I took the first pics of the car on election day 2008, so why not toss these up on election day 2012? Last bunch of pics to spam, lol:

Still a few goodies for sale from the car. Really need to score a set of stock struts/springs sometime soon, but not having much luck finding a set locally. May need to pay someone to ship me some, so PM me if you might have some!

holemilk00 · 11-06-2012, 01:26 PM

Damon I have extras at my dads, I'll be up there the 13th. I'll try to run you a set over to AA.

This car is proof that Obama improved the country, under his watch this car was created.

sex14 · 11-06-2012, 04:53 PM

^LOL thats funny as hell.

240sxlife · 11-06-2012, 05:18 PM

Damon i know this is probably a stupid question but with the low bride rails do they bolt right in on the stock floor studs or do i need to re-drill stud holes?

They bolt right in. Unless they are from another car. Mine just bolted in no problem.

240sxlife · 11-06-2012, 07:19 PM

Thanks a lot!

leung · 11-06-2012, 07:59 PM

Get the evo yet?

CamryOnBronze · 11-07-2012, 08:04 AM

The Evo I thought I had all lined up fell through. Flaky and sketchy seller. So no new car just yet!

ixfxi · 11-07-2012, 12:02 PM

How is your baby?
