got the rest of the exhaust off today and dropped the gas tank in preparation for a bunch of cutting and welding.
Manual JDM Seatbelts should be here tomm.
I think the next purchase will be a roll cage so that i can drill all the holes i need to (will be a bolt in cage) before i paint the interior.

Then why even post? That's one of the most worthless comments made in awhile.

you could keep the engine. or swap a SR20DE and do turbo later. but the NA cars 240's sound cool with ITB's

lol, im waiting on the hubs to put them on, i still dont think theyll fit though.
the guy i bought them from was running coilovers and the inside lip if the rim still hit them at times, so im prob gonna have to wait until i get coils and 10mm spacers to get them on.
oh, need to buy a set of lug nuts still too

parts!
terrible pic of the manual belts.
anddddd,
Ichiba 5 Lug Hubs w/ 50mm Studs already pushed in.
Now i need to get Rotors and Calipers from a Infinity Q45 since theyre 5 lug and have nearly the same clearance as OEM calipers. I just need to look into the rear, i cant find much info on it, so i might use Z32 parts for the rear.
Also, still need lug nuts and coils before i can put the wheels on.
But im contemplating picking up a Z32 as a daily when i sell the tC, so i might put this project on hold for a little to save up for that. Well see.

havent done ____ in a while.
been to busy with work and putting all my free time into putting the tC back to stock.
picked up A-spec blast pipes connected to some ebay 3" exhaust about a week ago.
pics will be up whenever i have time.
once the tC gets sold ill be picking up another 240 as a daily so im debating if i want to put all the part i already have onto this car or onto the daily.
i think im just gonna leave the holes in the floorboards and ____ for now, i dont really care, and my buddy fell through on the welding and im def not gonna pay to have my car towed to a shop just to have some things welded.
So im gonna try to finish primering and painting the inside in the next couple weeks so i can start putting things back together and free up some space in the garage.
