rad, thats dedication there

 

im stoked.
id say 16 hours is pretty good for pulling a motor and trans, re-assembling a new motor and trans, and then putting said motor and trans back in the car.
especially for just 2 dude.
even moreso because it was the first nissan either of us had worked on.

 

2 motors and 3 trans's later. lol





rollin Chicago style for now. lol

 

nice

 

oh look a stock 240.

 

^^^ hater

 

hater. did you even read the thread. at all?

 

i bet he was looking for a LSx swap

 

No actually, havent read any of the second first page and just kinda puttered through the first.


Who's hating? I have one also. A 92 Sr'd coupe. Currently the engines all apart and Im debating on getting an ISIS Rs3360 and RAS's. Im wanting to see around 300 whp.



You should check out zilvia.net if you havent already.

 

now i was hoping that you did an LSx swap...

 

yea, im already a member on all the forums.
and LS1 in a 240 is bleh.

 

Damn Cory, looks almost exactly like mine when I got it. I plan on doing a KA-T also.

Can't wait to see the progress, slam that _____!!!

bizzump?

 

lol, ill try to update this later today, im bustin my ___ right now putting stock parts back on the tC.

 

waiting for update. lol

 

alright heres a little update finally.

couple weeks ago we had a "big" storm, i got a little cocky on my way home and managed to drive into a ditch.



the far right is where i was stuck at, the tracks leading up to where the pic was taken from was just where i got pulled out at.

then shortly after that a ball joint completely popped out on my way home from work, luckily i had just gotten off the highway, i knew they were bad, just didnt know they were that bad.




and then shortly after that i started hearing some weird noises under the car, kind of like rattling. They happened a while back but went away so i just shrugged it off as an exhaust rattle without bothering to look.

My buddy convinced me to check it out so i jacked the car up and popped the cover off the tranny...

Only to find 1 out of 4 torque converter bolts still in place. 3 of them had sheered out "clean" and when i took the cover off only 1 mangled ___ one fell out, so im assuming the other 2 got completely shredded from bouncing around in there.

No pics of that ^ but luckily i have a 5spd tranny already, just need to get all the smaller parts to complete the swap.

So after that run of bad luck i decided to just put the 240 away a little early.

Finally got around to starting the tear down today and got a fair amount done, given the amount of time and that i was working alone. Im doing it right this time too, either labeling every part i take off, or screwing whatever nuts and bolts i take off back into their respective places until they need to be used again, so re-assembly should be cake.

Got the tailights out.



Also got the driver side door panel off, popped out a couple dent i had as best i could with a ball peen, removed about 1/2 of the OEM sound deadening from the trunk area, and started ripping the carpet back.



Next on he list is to get the dash and crap out so i finish removing the carpet.

Then doing an interior "wire tuck" with these wires as well as ripping the harnesses apart and removing whatever wire i wont be using.



Then ill finish removing all the stock sound deadening and well go from there.

and heres a couple randoms.

iheartzombies was cool enough to send me this bumper, i just had to pa for shipping.



noname brand and its pretty beat up but itll be good for practicing fiber glassing and leaving on while i learn the car.

annnd idk,



ill update again next weekend probably.

 

great build , def. will be watching .

IMO , i would've hoped for an SR20DET in thurrr :D

but you're going the right way too .

 

SR20DET are sooo common and less reliable than KA's imo.
