well some of you people know that i did a 97-98 front end swap, but the color was green so i had to save up money to get it painted. i will give credit to where it is due. my girl friend was the one who bought me the headlights first to get the snow ball rolling, so it would be wrong it didn't give you her any credit.

here is my kouki ( 97-98 ) front end

nice nice. very clean conversion. if i didnt know better id have said it was a straight kouki car, very well done. i vote for leaving the lip black. painting it white would look tacky, IMO.

TatII
02-26-2006, 05:52 PM
i just want it to look more visible. the kouki never came with a lip from the factory and they look pretty ugly with one. so i want mine to stand out alittle. but the black lip is growing on me alittle, but my friend had a white kouki with a white lip and it looked real good.

The paint looks pretty good, but the grill looks crooked.....

02-26-2006, 06:25 PM
haha yeah i noticed that too, the top needs to be zip ties since the clips broke. but i'm not gonna zip tie it yet cause i'm gonna take it off to paint the center part black on the inside.

TatII
02-26-2006, 07:10 PM
haha i actually had to kinda beg for it. but i got what i wanted in the end. so as it turns out most people wanted to leave the lip black, my personal friends and you guys.

nice car, nice convo. but i think the zenki front end looks betta

R.W.240
02-27-2006, 07:13 PM
i think the zenki front end looks betta

No.

Leave the lip black. White is tacky like said before.


1) You need the kouki sides and rear corners.
2) The JDM Kouki front is hella hotter. bump up.
3) Rear FNs to the front and 17x10s for the rear.
4) Needs more spacer
5) Needs more low.


No glaring problems like wastegate dump in the front bumper, you just need to kick it up a notch in a few places

haha the roads in nyc are horrible so i can't lower it anymore, i still bottom out in certain streets. so even right now its alittle too low.

i actually like hte usdm bumper better becasue it seems more complete.

and yeah i was thinkin about putting my 17x9's up front and buying 17x10's in the back, but the offset is not low enough. my rear offset is only 35mm.

but glad you didn't tear it up too much lol.

nice conversion, id say leave it black also, looks good. Got any engine pics? Its all about whats on the inside ;)

I want to make babies with your car.

Seriously, I <3 a nice Kouki, even if its a converted Zenki.

About the crooked grill, take it out perhaps?

Must I take a picture of my drive way? Washed out gravel isn't really ricer friendly.

i actually like hte usdm bumper better becasue it seems more complete.

I think its too cluttered. And the up angle bothers me. it makes the car look higher.

and yeah i was thinkin about putting my 17x9's up front and buying 17x10's in the back, but the offset is not low enough. my rear offset is only 35mm..

That don't make no nevermind. They make 30mm Bolt-on spacers for a reason. (FN Face doesn't change for the 9s anyway.)

If you want some ballertown daily wheels you could get CSTs for 900$ shipped in 17x9.5 +15 18x9.5 +15.

but glad you didn't tear it up too much lol.

Well... since you asked for it........






...nope, theres not much. I personally hate FNs and think the kouki bumper is better but whatever.

P.S. Windsheild banner is tacky. Make it smaller and one color or something.

TatII
02-28-2006, 12:26 AM
yeah i want to take it off for a smaller one. i had that banner on for 4 years.

02-28-2006, 08:29 PM
i like it. Keep it black. And your girl does look alot younger in that pic compared to the one in your avatar. She actually looks 23 in that one.

it all makes sense now. i saw your sig in another thread and i thought you bought a new car lol. But then noticed the windshield banner and fn's. So whats next on the list??

fixing htat leak in my a/c system. i'm a pussy, i need a/c. then i'm guessing its gonna be either a turboxs ignition thingy, ( i forgot what its called ) then probrably start saving up for internals.

Well I live even more north and I wouldn't mind having working AC, but I'm to poor to have it fixed. I rather buy coilovers then fix the AC, but if I had a girlfriend then I'd probably have to fix the AC. lol

03-01-2006, 01:13 PM
Damn, that's a sexy car. I've always liked white. So did you swap an SR or did you turbo the KA. I really like the KA-T's myself.

What's it like getting that car legal in NY? I was considering moving to the Albany area, but knew that my car would never be legal there.

TatII
03-01-2006, 01:45 PM
i have a KA-T in my car, my car is actually registered in another state, but i still have to go thru a 3 gas inspection test. and me having no EGR means i have to cheat to pass. in nyc, it woul'dve been alot easier, i can just slip someone a $100 and they'll pass me no problem. and yes like i said, i'm a pussy, hahah i need my heat, and my a/c.

no point in driving a nice car in the summer if i'm gonna sweat my ass off in traffic suffering and stuff. i want my car to look nice, feel comfortable, and drive nice, that to me is the definition of a nice street car.

I hear you there. Those Texans can forget how much Humidity can SUCK. Especially when you're just sittin there with no wind to cool you off.

Sounds like we have mutual goals. I wanted a car that was a pleasure to drive, luxurious on the inside, and a blast to take to the track. Turning a few heads is always a nice bonus as well.

Have you successfully bribed someone? What happens if you bribe someone who's not accepting?

And yes, I'd also love to see some engine bay pictures.

i know a few people on the inside who can help me out so that would never be an issue if it was registered in nyc.

i would post up engine bay pics if i wasn't so damn lazy to clean it. its very dirty from the body shop dust.

Pft, live down here for a while and you'll get used to it.

Besides, there's a saying in Texas: "If you don't like the weather, just wait 5 mintues."

My girlfriend doesn't mind not having A/C, she likes riding with the windows down....or so she says

what you guys are talking about missing R.W.240?

all he did was propogandanize, if thats a word, his buddies parts store and said everything else sucked. How stupid.

His best asset can be replaced with a ruler

he makes fun of you all constantly yet you don't want to see him gone, I'll just never get it.

I hope his "antics" go and some other clowns around here stop trying to impress him and this place restores some dignity.

TatII
03-06-2006, 10:59 AM
i never liked him, that is why i barely ever post or comment on his post unless it was directly addressed to me.

however even though he is a big ass, i do respect him in a sense because he does know what he is talkin about. however he is alittle too opinionated.

i nornally don't give a crap about what he says cause i'd rather let him argue with himself and get mad while i just sit there, but this time he really did cross the line. talkin about fucking someone else's girl friend is a no no. he can make fun of me or my car, but bringing my girl friend into this because he ran out of medication to control his mod swing is super fucked up.

also he broke so many guidelines in one night in 3 different threads its not even funny, how do you expect to not get away with this crap? if it was anyone else he would've been gone already. redneck and every other moderator was nice enough to let him stick around for this long breaking the rules already.

03-06-2006, 11:45 AM
I hate having to ban folks, it's just not fun.

But, just because you're knowledgeable on a subject, doesn't give you the right to be a dick to everybody else. R.W.240 knew his stuff when it came to 240s I'll admit to that, his attitude is what got him the boot.

McRussellPants
03-06-2006, 04:02 PM
what you guys are talking about missing R.W.240?.

Seriously.

all he did was propogandanize, if thats a word, his buddies parts store and said everything else sucked. How stupid.

So encouraging people to spend 100$s more on JDM links just to "mix it up" would be better?

I told people SPL was the best because it is. I bought SPL before I knew Kuah and I'll keep on buying it until someone makes it better for the price.

His best asset can be replaced with a ruler.

Yeah, and then you realize that those 7.5 +40s that were "almost flush" on stock shocks and springs are 4in sunk with decent suspension. =/

he makes fun of you all constantly yet you don't want to see him gone, I'll just never get it..

Werd.

I hope his "antics" go and some other clowns around here stop trying to impress him and this place restores some dignity.

LOL, First post haterade for the win. We'll get to the dignity part last.

I'd rather be a douche than let mediocracy ride like this forum. If people jerk you off for everything you do to your car you end up with Tenzos and AGX.


hmmm that is very interesting that someone has a split personality. .

What an intresting conclusion, split personality? Did you give yourself a headache deciding that split personality was the most logical conclusion?


i nornally don't give a crap about what he says cause i'd rather let him argue with himself and get mad while i just sit there, but this time he really did cross the line. talkin about fucking someone else's girl friend is a no no. he can make fun of me or my car, but bringing my girl friend into this because he ran out of medication to control his mod swing is super fucked up.

And heres the reason I made an I.E. to come back to this Cess Pool. I let my friend borrow my account. He spammed the haterade, I Loled, he kinda crossed the line with the Girlfriend thing. Cars are one thing, they're toys, but peoples relationships are different. My Apologies.


Now, since I'm back I geuss I'll go out on a soap box.

for those of you who haven't posted on This board for long this is the way it works.

1) Start posting
2) Learn stuff elsewhere
3) Get smarter.
4) Learn to hate the pure mediocracy that is AF. (I hate to harp on the "mediocracy" but thats all it is.)
5) A) Get Banned B) Move out peacably.

Where do you guys think S13 Iketani went? I think I see him posting on ZT. Where is Nissan Fanatic? Isn't he a mod? Why does he only occasionally post his car? Because he knows that this forum blows and he throws you guys a bone every once and a while with decent tech threads. The list goes on, as soon as people realize there is more to life that "ZOMG SR will fit in an 240SX?" threads, they move on.

This forum caters to beginers. Not unexpeceted. But when you don't hold someones hand through the murky "I may have enough money 500yrs from now to do this" threads your a douche.

I have been more or less actively trying to get banned for at least 6 months.

I really thought I'd go while shitting all over SRpower for failing at anything technical. (P.S. J Swigs FTW for actually figuring shit out before busting out the ban stick)

well r.w.240 atleast you admit it that you crossed the line. and yes i do admit that this forum lacks alot of technical post thats why i'm mostly on nico. i actually disappeared from this forum for a year or so because i couldn't stand it here. but i just came back to help some people with the technical stuff.

now boxy brown niggers, your a straight up asshole. you keep on talkin shit about my girl friend because your a hardcore e-thug right? i'm not even gonna get an argument with you guys becasue you guys. i'm done with this thread.

also i mostly post in the streetracing forum on AF, and car comparison. i only browse here on ocasions.
