Looks decent! the headlight switch to the right of the steering column is where the "SECU-RITY" light goes. and your steering wheel is not the factory piece.

alot of this isn't the factory piece I've noticed. The switch to the right is an engine kill switch... no idea why there is a kill switch, this car is a bit confusing at the moment.

So now that you got an SE what are the plans for your ca20 hatch?

big project drift missile most likely, fun car. This is technically going to be more my daily run around anyways.
Pushing this around is better then a falling apart firebird, that cost 3x the amount to repair.

Updated on the project.
checking out the engine bay some, and then ended up loosing spark when starting up the ol beast.
So now in the progress of doing a full tune up.

check those wires with the plugs that were right by the battery pos terminal. theyre fusible links and if u broke one of them u couldve killed the eccs. go backwards thru what u did since the last time it fired up and you will mostly likely find the problem. its usually something stupid and annoying

but then again theres always the chance of it being something unrelated and coincidental

Wonderingraven · « **Reply #8 on:** 11:08:57 PM / 10-Jun-11 »

I'll do that tomorrow, I redone the negative terminal, the positive I didn't really mess with because it looks too insane to touch.

Yep need z32 wheels to replace these 3 altima 16's steelies, and this 1 dodge rim.

Too hot to keep working on it today,as it hit 98 today. Just by changing out the dizzy cap my skin started to burn again. I lived in this town for too long and this heat still bothers me :-/ but this weather is just starting, before you know it's, it will be 120 where the rubber melts to the cement. Hopefully by then I can get things in better shape.

I've actually been thinking about making this my company car. Thinking of the ideal of getting a vehicle wrap and use it as my IT Professional car.
All these computer companies use different "new" style vehicles, trucks, vans.... so a hatchback computer car ;-) or maybe these gas fumes are getting to me

IggyEGuana · « **Reply #12 on:** 06:47:41 PM / 17-Jun-11 »

actually not a bad idea. the s12 is very sci fi. car has to be in great shape tho. imo the perfect s12 for it would be a highly optioned mk1. all those 80s tech doo dads

its a bold move to be a throw-back techie

Wonderingraven · « **Reply #13 on:** 08:36:20 PM / 17-Jun-11 »

Yeah, or something kewl... I just got my job back with lasvegas.net so I'm not to worried anymore on this mk2 sev6 is going full throttle with restore and 5spd swap.
it's time to get my ass drifting!
