oh what a nissan feeling! Posted February 2, 2008 Report Share Posted February 2, 2008 (edited) Up until now i have not started a thread for my ke25, because it was finished, and there is nothing to write about. But, due to a way too cheap motor option coming up, the ke25 is no longer finished, so here is a quick backtrack of how it got to where it is. :jamie: Edited March 14, 2009 by oh what a nissan feeling!

oh what a nissan feeling! Posted February 2, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 2, 2008 at least tell us the manufacturer of the new motor!? Nah, its not as exciting as you would think, just another bolt in replacement, with a small twist. This ones more of a restoration project, rather then a modification project. i can't bring myself to cut into this one. :jamie: Looks bloody straight. great job a credit to you.Wish my one wasas straight as yours. Ive got a huge job ahead of me. but its all gonna be worth it in the end .I say do it once and do it properly Thanks man. Yeh the car had only a few dints in it, and almost zero rust, but from factory there were a things that need to be smoothed properly. for example all of the edges around the doors and door openings are high compared to the flat of the panel. can't wait to see how yours turns out with that racer look and color scheme! :hmm: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doogs Posted February 2, 2008 Report Share Posted February 2, 2008 Hey man, looks sweet, good job :jamie: Just out of interest, what color is that ? (is it a custom tint or a more readily available one) Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jono Posted February 2, 2008 Report Share Posted February 2, 2008 Nah, its not as exciting as you would think, just another bolt in replacement, with a small twist. i'm guessing a 5k or 7k with a turbo or supercharger....? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oh what a nissan feeling! Posted February 3, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 3, 2008 Hey man, looks sweet, good job thumbs_up_trans.gif Just out of interest, what color is that ? (is it a custom tint or a more readily available one) Cheers its a factory one, its off the vt/vx commodore, its got a huge amount of green pearl from factory. i'm guessing a 5k or 7k with a turbo or supercharger....? Yep, spot on, 5k with efi and 5spd, the turbo or sc is will probably happen once i get a bit bored. :jamie: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
