I have these up elsewhere but thought I'd share on here as well. I totalled my last S14 and I just couldn't walk away from what I had started. So I took everything from this:

http://a573.ac-images.myspacecdn.com/images01/64/l_f679eb025e9e4ac2c806493c1dc8b1fc.jpg

Lucky I had this sitting around and started moving everything over:

Fast forward a month and with a few new parts she's lookin a whole lot better:
Seibion CF hood
Origin 20mm front/ 50mm rear (not shown) overfenders
Origin stylish front bumper
VersionSelect sides and rear
New FMIC
Blitz SS BOV
Work Equip 18x10 +5/ 18x12 +0

I also decided to re-wire the engine bay and tuck the engine harness and trim the huge factory fuse box down to a managable size. Thats the majority of whats been done so far. Onto the pictures:

The exact reaction I was looking for lol. The whole car is supposed to extreme to its fullest. I'm tired of the "clean" style thats in right now. I wanted to go over the top stupid on it, I'm ready for reactions like this lol!


Is there going to be a ginormous FMIC in the blank?

Its there right now, just painted black :ninja:


If it were my car, I'd loose the stickers and just curious how did you wreck the first one?

The stickers were there. Its Tiger Racing-Sammy's door off the car he wrecked at Irwindale. The stickers will be removed and the car is getting painted one color lol. How did I wreck the last one? err....... lets just leave that one alone haha.

Mary doesn't get her way on this one either lol, thanks man!

Its getting professionally prepped and painted, don't you worry about that! I just need to decide on a color in the next month. Appreciate the comments!

That exhaust sticks out to far as do the wheels. As for the stretched tires:no:
Your fenders are fucked. Is tape holding your body kit on? It looks like your holding the exhaust in position with a rope? WTF
However, that is respectable doing all your stuff yourself. It might look pretty cool finished.;)

Read post number 28. If im not mistaken the car is still being worked on. Im sure he will be the exhaust hung properly. The rest is explained in post 28 i believe.

Car is looking awesome. You gonna leave the interior semi gutted or you gonna put it back completely? IMO semi gutted and a little caging would look very nice.

Haha, yeah I "fucked the fenders." I still need to weld them up and seam seal the area. You have to cut them away when doing overfenders (widebody) if you want to go low. You cant have 2 wheel arches one inside the other. I'm still waiting on the rear fenders to come in. Once they do they are getting molded to the body. The rims stick out cause they need to fill the area with 50mm overfenders. The tape is all over the car as reference points so next time I pull them off I can trim the areas marked, chill, it isn't finished. The exhaust is just slun under there, its rigged but trust me it will be finished right. Read man, its no where close to being finished, just posted progress pics.

LS2ner: thanks man. The interior is all going back in. I've had a couple "track" cars lol and there is no point in making yourself uncomfortable to save 150lbs. I still might put a cage in it one day.

Ryan, Yousef, Chris, thanks for the comments and Will, I'll get with you about the parts you have left.

Thanks for looking everyone! Keep the comments rolling in!

Ok, so I personally had a chance to stop by and look at the car today...

Let me just say that the pictures DO NOT do the car justice. This is one SICK 240, with a lot of little "Justin touches" that makes it one of a kind.

Those of you that are giving suggestions, I'm sure he appreciates it, but believe me when I tell you this guy has built some AMAZING cars in his days, and I'm quite certain he knows what he's doing.

Mad props, Justin, this shit is going to be SICK...I can't wait!

I know it's not finished yet. You can tell that I know that when I said," It might look pretty cool finished." Seriously though It will probably look pretty sweet when it is completed and when you get tires that fit. It is all about the completed project, it's just not completed yet. Can't wait to see it finished man:goodjob:
