Just a reminder the project at hand is project; Do Work, Son s14 Track addition.

I purchased a 95 Nissan 240sx back in October of 08, 100k miles, auto, blown ka, ugly, and stock.

To date the interior has been completely removed, along with all sound deadening, Full-Race cage installed,engine bay stitch welded, rear fenders cut and raised for clearance, and the body kit; including D-Max and Vertex areo.

The next items on the list include Apexi head gasket, ARP headbolts, and lots of suspension!

Do Work Son! -Prj s14

you know what they say.....



Do Work, Son!



Do Work, Son






so that's exactly what I did today!





time to take the first step on my new project "Black Out!" aka S14 King aka Try me aka.... You get the point. This will be a fun car.








So not knowing what bolts were lose and which ones were tight I decided to remove the front sub frame, rear sub frame, differential, axles, suspension, and gas tank. That way I could start fresh.





-Note; never assume the car you buy in is perfect drivable shape.... I may drive, but you should always double check the entire vehicle top to bottom- especially when it comes to our modified cars...





No one was around this beautiful Saturday, but I could not let the day go to waist so I did it all myself.

Getting a little ency I started touching my motor set

That's when I chose my next license plate; (Cluth Klr)





Yes, the clutch never stood a chance...

WRONG!


Arizona is home to countless beautiful automobiles and the enthusiast who drive them from Muscle to Import and Exotic.

If fact, there were has been an increase in enthusiasts' events this year such as the monthly Drifting/Drag event held at Fire bird Raceway.http://www.firebirdraceway.com/

This months event was held Saturday June 6th; the Drag and Drag event allows locals to bring out the rust buckets, garage queens, and full blown track cars.
