Post your non-BMW project cars

Bavarian · 12-14-2011, 02:30 AM

I can't be the only one so lets see em - Hondas, Nissans, toyotas, etc.
Needed something to kill time during the summer break before school started so I picked up this piece of chitt, 1996 Nissan 240sx for 2k. RWD ftw

.
Did most of the work myself. Lowering it in the winter break. No more 4x4 status

Then finally some engine mods.

The pictures at the end are of how it looks now. And the last one is of the garage queen

Sold my project Mitsubishi 3000gt after an accident that involved frame damages. Was originally going to pick up a beater but the parents bought my sister a Benz so I got her hand-me-down BMW

1995 Mitsubishi 3000gt SL
69,xxx
Tenzo-R Passion 5 in hypersilver
K&N intake

Pending turbo install from my friend's boss before I got into an accident... FML.

Only pic that I can find of her.

Here's my current project... (Super cheap) since most of my fun money goes towards the BMW.

Jonny550 · 12-14-2011, 04:50 PM

As if the Chrystler 300 was not ugly enough....

Buy a Porter cable buffer and some polish and make that 240 look much better. Should cost around $200 with pads.clay, polish etc.

The 240 is a great beater/project car.

Turbo this summer

8URV8 · 12-14-2011, 08:20 PM

Mine is a 2007 Kawasaki ZX10r turbo, meth injection, lowered, slightly streched and E-85 tuned..the old setup in the video was on 5psi making about 225whp its now in the 270whp range....Currently it is taken apart to install a full standalone system for better tuning abilities and more boost, hopefully over the 300whp mark...

Srs = serious

When I hear project car I think of perhaps an older performance car reworked for track duty. I don't think of Altimas and Chrysler 300's

I see. There are more than project performance cars. Depends on what type of project you're working on...
Altima= Audio project, equipped with Kicker amps, components speakers, and subwoofers. Loudest and best sounding in my area.
Chrysler 300= 1st project show car... Custom wheels, interior, sound system, exhaust, and trim.
... and now, my 335i... the performance project.

exclusivo · 12-15-2011, 11:47 AM

I need a rhd jdm car...rhd civic eg/ek hatch or skyline

The 240 is a great beater/project car.

Exactly what I did. Scratched off the old clear coat, buffed it. Then clear-coated the top parts (trunk, roof, hood.)
