I just got this car off necc lots of work to do but still love it

[![http://img294.imageshack.us/img294/8482/my2400045za.th.jpg](http://img294.imageshack.us/img294/8482/my2400045za.th.jpg)](http://img294.imageshack.us/my.php?image=my2400045za.jpg)

New hood ya thats right its carbon fiber ( siebon )  
i got hood pins too but havent got them in yet if u guys no a place let me know asap

Double vents sad thing is i had to remove my front strut bar to get the hood to close so if u guys know how to weld i need to cut the bar down a bit to get it to fit right

The stereo is another major project i was going to put 3 10 inch rock ford p1s because they need very lil air but i figure its going to be too much work trying to make 3 10’s fit in the trunk under the rear deck with enough room to clear the trunk arm so i think im going to make a nother one out off fiber glass and have them spread out kinda in the middle or i may put 4 tens if i can fit them so here is how the 1st wood box would have looked so let me know if u guys have any suggestions off to what would work or any pics of any of your own

body work will get done after the engine bay is painted and the new engine is in there is just a dent in the pass side door so that is the biggest part of the body work i was thinking a carbon fiber trunk and hood so there is no need to fix both those parts the rest is just small dents and scatches but im keeping that color does any one have 2-4 mud flaps for a 95 nissan 240sx i need 2 rear for sure if so let me know

Ultimately you will get colder air coming into the motor, but a naturally aspirated KA isnt really a hot running engine to start with, and considering it might give you like one horsepower, you wont actually notice any difference.
