Hey everyone. Well with the new season right around the corner, and hopefully nice weather too, I am curious as to what you guys and gal’s have planned for your cars? You don’t have to go in to details if you don’t want to and if yourkeeping your plans hush hush, no worries I understand. 😉 My plans are for my KA-T, suspension and either fixing up my frontend the way it used to look or possibley a Silvia S15 bolt on frontend. So that’s me, how about you? Take care. Easy 8) ---

Step 1. Pay for car 2. Bring car home 3. remove interior/sound mat 4. replace fuel pump 5. get car actually running 6. repair frame rust. 7. swap Silvia front end. 8. fill frame and rockers with foam. 9. suspension upgrades (sway bars, tower bars, traction bars, rucas) 10. hub spacer and tires. 11. coilovers (time and money permiting) 12. Ka-t (time and money permiting 13. steal underpants 14. ??? 15. profit seems like a decent plan aside form the car related stuff. ---

Not much this summer: - Im just changing my suspension I will be either keeping my Eibach sportline springs and adding KYB AGX’s or possibly get rid of my springs etc and replace everything with some nice coilovers but most likely I will take tha AGX route (Cheaper). -I am getting rid of my regular front strut bar and I will be installing the 4 point strut bars from CP racing on front and rear. To tighten things up a little. - Installing my VLSD rear end. - Installing a C’s short shifter. - Installing a kick ass alarm system. - Possibly get rid of my CD changer and get a nice CD player. I will probably sell my 2 12’s in the back and replace them with a nice kick ass single 10 inch sub in a box, to reduce weight. -There is a good possibility I will do my SR20DET swap during the begining of summer if I find the motor that I want for a good price. If I don’t do it before I go to Europe in late July then I will do it after I get back in September. -If I do my SR swap after IO get back from Europe then I will also change my clutch as well as my plugs and wires. - Oh yeah I forgot I am going to put this custom sticker I had made on my car, I don’t want to give it away so you will just have to wait to see it. And that’s all folks! ---

Get the car on the road in May, Get VLSD, do minor suspension and a 300zx brakes upgrades. Find some better seats than the stock s13’s. Maybe wheels and tires. Pretty much do whatever I can with the money from this summer of working while trying to save for the next year of school. ---

ALl I can find are from US on eBay - Tint rear quaters and new rear glass, still trying to decide what to do with the windows and windscreen ( btw I am tinting myself, any advice would be welcome ) - PAINT JOB!!! ( btw I am painting myself, any pointing and laughing is welcome ) - Various misc interior ( steering wheel decal upside down/deck trim too big to fit/carpet ripped a few places/ few clips AWOL ) - rims - eibach pros - VQ35 swap ok … those last three are maybe’s yeah… my car is more of a project car than a daily driver but I still love it. ---

plans eh? i want to launch a bunch more products and take bings.ca live… the car will depend on how other things go, i dont make plans i let my bank account decide what happens to the car. after exams i have the following going in: nismo engine and tranny mounts engine damper Tubular exhaust manifold T28 turbo (if i can find one in time) Tein inner tie rods w/ S14 outter rod ends subframe spacers D2 damper warranties clean up some of the ghey wiring in the car and get a boost gauge finally. if i get the job i m supposed to get at the pay i am supposed to get then i’ll prolly dump a bunch more $$$ into it and make her a high 12 car with nice paint. ---
