I say one of as i have another 160Jsss basically stock for a road car
And a 140J Sedan which i have devoted all my time and spare money to to try get one car finished first then move onto the next rather than takeing for ever to finish 3.

I brought the car as someones failed project they had pulled the car down and sprayed it with primer, Half the car wasn't even sanded back that well.
Its pretty close to rust free the worst parts are Rear Tail light panel (which i have a NOS replacement) And along the tops of the Front and Rear Windscreens.
Plans for the car have since changed since its been in storage.
I'll most likely move the SR20DET and 6speed to my 140J sedan once its all setup in this car. Then replace it with a SR20VET and R33 GTST 5speed box or maybe a 350Z box (undecided in that area at this stage) I have approx 90% of the hard to find parts for a SR20VET RWD conversion just the expensive easy to find parts to go. Ive just been collecting up bits and pieces here an there for it.
Have decided a goal of a 10Sec pass for this car and 300wkw.
A half cage will be fitted while retaining Interior (rear seats will be unusable but will still be there will get them re trimmed with holes in center of back rest to allow for harnesses to go through)
Fully strip and get it bead blasted then get my Bro Inlaw to help me panel (good to have a qualified Panel Beater in the family)
Paint in a yet to be fully decided colour but will be a dark candyish purple colour.

I have been doing the od little bit here and there since the car has been stored away. (unfortunately its not in the best storage area and the body has gone down hill a little bit. Hopefully before next winter it will be in my shed ready to be worked on again).
Car now has CV Axles fitted made by John (off this site) top quality job at a great price.
Car runs and starts off the key. Doesn't idle but i think this may have something to do with it has no intercooler piping and i just shove the AFM onto the throttle body.
Can't wait till my 140J is back from the painters and assembled with the glass back in it so i can move it outside and get this back to my place then the fun will really start. Ive learn't alot working on my 140J and feel ive done that to a high standard but this i'll take to another level again.
It will be quite sometime before this is updated again but it will happen.
