Project Hardshell

[TheCrabMaster]

Ok so the build is deff in a slow period. Im going to be working 7 day weeks for a while because its about to be spring break. So thou that means less time to work on the truck, it means way more money for the truck. I started throwing the engine back together thou.

FUTURE MOD LIST!
Aldan Eagle Coilovers
Fuel Cell
Walbro (probably)
S14 front sway bar
Modified Knuckles
Pathfinder Rear end
Sparco seat
Fiberglass rear Overfenders
Frame Notch
Bash bar
Fiberglass front bumper
Rack and Pinion (one of these years)
New bushings
New lca
New Brake Master
New Brake Booster
New Clutch Master
New Clutch Slave
Engine Bay respray
GOLD REFLECTIVE TAPE!
Carbon Kevlar
Steering Wheel & Quick Release
Oil Cooler
E-Cutout
Rev Limiter (possibly)
New paint color (possibly)

Now these aren't in correct order, but im sure I missed something. Then after all that, the truck will probably get a new engine next year sometime

another option could be to find a link that has a ball joint on one end and a bushing on the other end, I know they exsist, not sure if theres one long enough, you could always extend one (assuming you dont merk the joint when welding)

I believe s14s have that style link in the front or rear (or both)

Haha the Miata is basically the same, wheels got painted and valve cover got painted. Did some maintenance. But other than that its the same, thou im getting a header back exhaust this week ! Yeah ill cross that road when I get there. Coilovers and 4 link will be done first thou.

300zx non turbo clutch

That's what I've decided after lots of research to run. We can get a six puck ptq clutch set at work for right at $200, lifetime warranty, so that's that. Is there any lightweight flywheel that you know of that will bolt up to that trans/clutch combo?

Not that ive seen, if I remember correctly the 240 and rb20 flywheels are the same bolts but different sizes. Probably could get a machine shop to cross drill one

Meh. Ill just get mine turned some at work and throw it back in there. The d21 fw is a little larger which is why 240 guys swap to the truck unit. Oh whale.

OK so basically most of my friends I hang out with drive s2000, which in return has made me very fond of my little roadster. So what im trying to say is im putting some money into it, to make it even more fun little car, but the truck will still be my main focus. Thoughts, comments, concerns? haha

Last page needs more pictures and less chit chat!

Looking good OP, agreed about the fender comment, they can look swell!
