240sx hotness

[MunsonAuto]

Hey guys and gals, I just finished wet sanding and buffing my 240 tonight, so here's some pics.
In case your wondering what this has to do with ls1truck.com, I'm putting a 2003 5.3l in this 240 in about another month or so and I've found a ton of useful information on here.
The paint is a DBC quality, sprayed right here in my shop, all work done in house. Removed the stupid factory wing, filled the holes or smoothed/shaved the holes, painted the factory wheels that came on it because the aftermarket 15's i bought the car with were missing the center caps. The paint is called Blue Black Mica and is out of our PPG 2002 Foreign Paint Book, in the Subaru section; if anyone is wondering.
Anyway:

niceeee. how far are you on the 5.3 work?

Sweet car....

As far as the 5.3 swap goes, I still need: DBW pedal assembly and harness, Koyo KA (nissan "jdm" radiator), Dakota Digital Speed box, 2wd 4l60e driveshaft/yoke (is the 4l60e camaro driveshat yoke the same as the 2wd truck one?), and a MAF sensor. I also need headers (found some on summitracing that will work), some mufflers, and a bunch of other little things.
But it's going pretty good, I got my camaro accessories from KruznLow. I could start removing the stock engine and start fitting the 5.3 so when i get everything i just bolt it on and go, but I want to drive the car the way it is for a while to get used to it.
Thanks for the comments

i wonder were ya got the paint for the tires ?it looks like tire shine.do they have it in different colors so you can match or contrast youre paint job?j/k looks good.

lol, the tires i just used some good armor all like stuff we get from APP (auto paint plus). But the wheels I am going to redo with some left of the left over blue black mica and some good clear, instead of all rattle can crap. i was bored when i did them.

[MunsonAuto]

lol, yeah. But your not getting rid of your drive shaft/yoke are you? If you are I'd be interested...

I have a buddy in our local group doing an LS1 in a 240 right now.

I love the idea. You might want to buy a cam, and possibly anything else major before you put the motor in... Make install allot quicker. and save allot of busted knuckles and sore back muscles.
