philcas1987 Posted April 26, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 26, 2011 Pun intended? :P Lol I love trading!!!! Got these from kamakazi. In my quest to go lower. Was running zx upper hats cut to fit the 510 strut towers. Old trick. Bit now these are lower than the zx ones. The seats on the coilovers are all the way down. Could have welded the collars down some more but I wanted some travel. Next time I'm on the concrete slab I'll snap a couple pics. Engine is almost done! So that might lower it some. But I could always go up! Quote Link to comment

philcas1987 Posted April 28, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 28, 2011 Well I robbed the hood from it. It's actually a decent hood. But i replaced it with an equally ratty sun faded red one. Just has a dent. Perfect! Got ahold of a hella conversion set! Going tu run the "banzai" 500's as well Quote Link to comment

philcas1987 Posted May 4, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 4, 2011 Another step closer!!! Thanks to 620 Kevin, Kama, and nismo dr. I gathered all the necessary parts to put together a weber 32/36. Still missing the choke parts. They say it's not needed really but I like to have a fully functioning carb. Throttle shafts had wobble. Sinner posted up some sweet bearings so I grabbed a full set. Much better. Had to take a carbide bit to the tall adapter. Jetted it according to weber specs on an l16.Baseline. Have a box of random jets to tweak if need be. The air cleaner is for a oval top weber had some tubes on the bottom plate that interferes with the dgv so I cut them off. Let's unfiltered air in. Not the best but it looks pretty. Hopefully the seat on the idle mixture isn't screwed up. The carb looked hammered. Think I have enough parts for another carb for a car here in the yard. Quote Link to comment
philcas1987 Posted May 10, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 10, 2011 Well I really didn't like the minilites and I need atleast a 15" on my two door. So i steal these from it Enkei apache mesh iv 14x6 +18 195-60-14 up front and 14x7 +5 205-60-14 in the back Front and rear had to be rolled. Hoping to have the l16 and 5 speed running by the datsloco swap meet. I need cash to finish my two door. If any one wants it let me know. Quote Link to comment

philcas1987 Posted May 11, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 11, 2011 selling the the 4door already!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!I love this car!!!!!!!!!!! Well my two door is a priority. The most important thing to remember is that I got it on the road. Well almost just waiting on the rebuilt engine. Everyone overlooked this car like if it was a pile of shit. I've made it "ratsun" style. Once I get it going I'll be more serious about selling it. I'm sure someone will enjoy it for what it is. You should sell it with the mini lights and keep the golld wheels Can't run 14" on the two door any more. They look so cool on it I can't take them off meow.I'd love to keep all my wheels. Indeed. Gracias Phil! No prob. Wonder what they are going on Quote Link to comment
DISLEXICDIME Posted May 11, 2011 Report Share Posted May 11, 2011 Why cant you run 14's any more? Quote Link to comment
