Hey guys, Well after my whole water pump explosion back in December I decided I never wanted to have to worry about getting my car back home safely again, not to mention having to wait hours for a tow truck to arrive to give me a tow. I had originally planned on buying an open trailer and found one ...

Hey guys, Going to start putting the car back together really soon just waiting on my crank pulley, water pump pulley, and altima fans to arrive. I will also be ordering an OEM water pump from Nissan on Thursday, after that, the last thing I need to order is the aluminum radiator. Since the car is d...

Here is a pic of the tires that I purchased last week, I had originally planned on going with the Kumho XS' but they were on back order from the local tire store. So I ended up going with the RE-11's, I got them for just over $5 more per tire than the XS'. I tried them at the autox where I had my wa...

looks like the bearings siezed up and the nija star wanted to escape. That is the best analogy to describe that carnage that took place :D Have any pics of the WP rotor? Not yet, I hope to have some free time this week/weekend to remove all of the damaged parts. I'll post some more pics of my findi...

Wow, wtf caused that? that's crazy ****, sorry to see that on the new paint job =[ I believe the water pump siezed somehow and from the force of the belt trying to spin it, ripped it off of the water pump causing all hell to break loose. Yeah, it's a bummer it happened right after the paint, but no...

Update: This past Sunday I attended my first autox since having the car back from the body shop. I made three runs and my times had dropped from a total of 7 seconds from my first initial run, the announcer even made a comment how I had been improving my times:). Well on my fourth run I decided to t...

My tires just arrived at the tire shop earlier today, I ordered some Bridgestone Potenza RE-11's. I was running around for a few hours after work so I didn't have a chance to go get them mounted today, so I will be going tomorrow morning to get the tires mounted and the car aligned as well. I will h...

Finally brought her home on Friday night. Overall, I am still somewhat disappointed in the amount of time the shop took as well as the lack of attention to detail they took in certain areas. Oh, and I still need to install the grilles back into the front bumper. When I drove the car home my wife fol...

thats exactly what i would want my coupe to look like. very nice Thanks for the kind words. Seeing your nice S14 in your signature makes me feel like I am neglecting my S14 which is going to need more work than the S13. The coupe was just supposed to be a beater but it is starting to spiral out of ...

Nice color man. Good to see it painted. Why not try twin charging the dohc? Use both the sc and the turbo. Well I originally wanted to swap in the DOHC right away, but after re-thinking my HP goals I started to believe that the SOHC might be able to suit my needs. As for twin charging, I think it w...

Here are some pics of a few more parts that I picked up tonight. Picked up this T28 and FMIC for $210. I plan on trying to make the supercharger work on the SOHC first and if I am not happy with the results I will switch over to the T28 setup, which I know I will like. It was just too good of a deal...

Well she's finally painted! They told me they were going to paint the car first thing in the morning so as soon as I got off of work I headed to the shop. I think it looks really good, compared to what it looked like before. I did find some problems with a few areas however. I told them to take car ...

10/23/2009 So after a few weeks of more frustration, I notified my friend on Sunday 10/18 that I would be taking the car home Friday 10/23, finished or not. I couldn't get a hold of him on Monday 10/19 so I took a drive to the shop and told him that I intended to finish the car myself no matter how ...

Well since I've been a little down about the body shop not being done with my car, I decided to head over to the junkyard today just to kill some time out of the day.

Made a suprise visit to the body shop today, since I usually show up on Friday's. It appears that they have done a little more work to the car, judging from dust-free spots that had body filler on them. I spoke with my friend(owner) while he was working on another car :roll: and asked him what the p...
