Another engine bay paint job. S13 convertible #2

I’m going to be getting back to work on the blue beast. I’ve had it in Canada for around 8 months now and initially started as a basic paint job but I wouldn’t want my reputation to hold me back at just that. She will be a sexy car when she is done. Much like my red JDM Convertible some of you already know of. Anyhow I will keep this updated with pictures as the project gets finished. Most of these pictures will be of me painting and going into detail with this engine bay! She wont be built for going fast but just another pimp ride. All the work done to this car is done by us at worldcarlink. We picked it up as a private sale with a blown up CA18. Since then the fallowing has been done to her!

Mods including:
-4 to 5 lug conversion
-R32 Brakes up front S14 out back
-S14 V-LSD
-auto to 5 speed conversion
-S14 SR20DET
-Apexi FMIC
-Custom intercooler piping
-HKS Air Pod
-180SX inside trim
-S15 Seats

More parts such as wheels and suspension to come. I sold what was in her and in search of new and better goodies. Let the sexiness commence!

Allen if you ever come up to edmonton i need you to help wit my engine bay!

Can’t wait to see the finished product :thumb

Yeah…I can’t wait to see it either. Considering how pimp the red car is, I can only imagine how fucking amazing this one is going to look when it’s done! :E

Doing it in blue or black? G’damn, I really want one these…

this one is going a BMW color kinda like the Nissan Blue that is on it now but WAY more pearl! I added some other goodies in the paint. Has some red and blue pearl in the paint so it will be sexy. I am not doing much welding on this one. On my red car I welded up every damn hole in the bay and frame rails and stitched everythign under the fenders. This will not be done like that as it takes many many hrs just to do this and I would never get any money for the time I throw i it much like the red car HAHA. It will look good and the paint willb e awesome! I should have the front end painted in a few days but I still need to work on the engine too. The valve cover will be body color like the engine bay and welded I/C piping and Im not sure what I am doing for a BOV or BPV yet so we will see.

Its been painted for a while though I think when I get back I am going to throw another good coat of clear in her as the texture in it wasnt all that great. Some dust got in her aswell but none the less still lookes a million times better. I doubt anyone will think twice about the condition its in now once everything is back in her but thats just my thaught!

I also have a S15 front here in Japan I think I am just going to have to throw on too. We will see! Id say about a 75% chance I will throw it on and weld up the fenders!

here is the blue sealer. I throw a thick coat of primer under it and just wanted to use the sealer to match the body a bit better as the car will get sealed aswell! I didnt want to have a minor miss match. When I did my red convertible I didnt use sealer as the primer did that for me becuase I painted the engine bay black.

Don’t you dare! If you do that I won’t be able to sleep until I have cash to buy that car… :tonqe:
