lol.. i never liked the center caps for the 00-01's lol... n like bryan said it looked gully... i wanna dyno stock sometime too

 

more satisfying goodies came in







next up is to fix the core support n cilovers

 

Racing depot or eBay? The ones I find for my 00 say 95-01; which got me scratching my head. Let me know how bad the install is! I'm in the same financial boat ain't tryna dish out mad money for cattmans

 

Install is much worse on a 4th gen then it is on a 5th gen and it honestly isn't that bad.

 

 

Install will always be a bish lol... These are from ebay... Listed for 02-03 but we all know they fit 95-03 lol

 

Whats the diameter of the rear flange Ghustle?

 

2.25"

 

Why does it look like you're located in Baltimore O.o

...hmm & I love this thread lol I'm about to subscribe to it

 

lol no not baltimore but im in MD though lol

 

Lookin' sweet! In for more progress pics & can't wait to see what coilovers you end up with. You already had the BC's, right? I just got them on my '01 and I could not be more thrilled. I don't find them too that stiff at all (although it is a big difference from stock) but the improvement in handling capabilities is mind-blowing; well worth the tradeoff for me.

 

So yesterday was the biggest fail in life lmao... set out to install my headers







snapped a couple pics of the pulley installed also



But we got 95% the way done before failing to undo the stock catalytic convertor and had to put the stock back on because we had no grinder lol

 

yea coilovers are my next purchase... workig on it now

 

Got to where the front headers were on the car and had to take em off lol

EDIT: please pardon the rust content lmao... the owner was from syracuse and took 0 care of the car

 

Cool lol i guess everywhere just looks like

 

Why not just pick up a 240sx test pipe?

And holy hell, that **** is rusted like crazy.

 

I have another gutted cat bro.... I just didn't have a grinder to remover the OEM cat so even with a 240 test pipe I would still have to uninstall the OEM pipe

 

The cat is in one of the pictures

 

Any fitment issues with the OBX ?

 

never got the whole thing on.... but thats a given and written thing that there will be fitment issues... there will always be, from now until the end of time

 

So i guess i need to update... (i DID NOT have "fitment" issues with my OBX headers)

grinding the extra virgin catalytic converter off

 

OH SH1TTTTTT HE WORKS!!!!!!!!!!! and beside an integra at that

sounds quiet though, GOOD!!!!! but quiet

 

its got that bees in a can sound lol

 

go cop the twin loop, that extra loop eliminates the bees in the can and it ends up beez in the trap

 

hopefully i can get my radiator support fixed this weekend... the car is vibrating a lil more than it was, and might be the reason for my 3rd gear crunch...

 

You say you had no fitment issues? What do you mean by that. You still had to grind the motor mount right and alter the cross member right. Throw any codes lol?

 

No, i did not grind any motor mounts nor did i grind the crossmember, the grinding in the pic was to get the stock catalytic converter off
only issue i have with it is the rear o2 sensor location (which we all knew about)

EDIT: ive always had a code for bank 1 sensor 1, now im only using 1 sensor so yea, i have a code alright lmao

 

This week was dedicated to getting my radiator support fixed...

Where are the coilovers

 

x2.
