Hey guys, i thought i might aswell start a new topic cuz ill be working on this car for quite a while  Remember that conversion i was talking about  We went to pic up the body today, got the complete body with all the windows, panals, and alot of spare parts for 1.5k. here it is. like you can see, ill just let the pics speak for themselves  Its a big project, got alot of guts, but you'll see this baby when she's finished      interior still in fair condition     The only panalbeating needed on the entire car      Ya ya i know it looks like a piece of sh*t, but mark my words  This project is gona take a long time to complete tho, a complete DIY job  What can i say, once the bug bit there's no turning back  Oh and dont even ask how we got it on that trailer without the hubs/wheels ect  Let me know what you think _________________ Mazda FE powered 2.0 16v Nissan Exa viewtopic.php?f=9&t=2286

I also think it was, Thanx ExtraHot wrote: body doesn't look bad, we kno u can do it just keep us updated with lots of pics goodluck There's nothing wrong with the body, no dents ect, just the right front door. Chassis is 100%, got a whole boot full of spares, plus head and extra carb for the original 1500 engine , the wiring is stil in tack. Basacaly just the front suspension, new front door, right headlight, front bumper and spray job, rear bumper still looks good. The mountings, engine bay wiring, everything is till there and wats not upfront is in the boot Thanx, will do Aarchaic wrote: looks like someone is going to have another hole in his pocket! but will be lots of fun! Yes, but im not in a hurry, lots of fun after lots of hard work, swearing ect, im actually looking forward to it, first up im gona strip the complete car for the spray job, just have to get the hubs/disks ect so its atleast a rolling body, then i can start stripping  RSiBoy wrote: Nice bru! cant wait to see all the pics!

Hi, Its very close to the same colour, but it was sprayed light blue, the engine bay is the exact same colour of my car haha, it could've very well been my exa (before) you're right The mx6 has a big roll to play in the 2.5 v6 decision, yes ill stay with mazda for a long time But the v6 is a bit of a bigger conversion than the FE, by the looks of it, it will fit in there, and if it dosn't, ill make it fit But the body, spray ect has to be sorted out before i start  This will be a stricly weekend project, and mabye a few week nights if i get carried away Oh and i forgot to add, this one will be silver, will post a pic up later Will keep you updated Thanx _________________ Mazda FE powered 2.0 16v Nissan Exa viewtopic.php?f=9&t=2286

You can get a few new spares here and there, but mostly 2nd hand.

Ever thought of fitting a turbo charged FE motor sorry no offence, but Im not a big fan of the 2.5 sorry I want the body to be complete, sprayed ect. Ill just spray the engine bay when the conversion is done. we'll be putting the 1500 in for the time being and drive it like that, thats why the body needs to be 100%, only untill all the stuff for the v6 conversion is sorted To be honest, no i never thought of fitting a turbocharged FE, i know that the FE in turbo form will give much more than the KL ever would. But its not about the performance, i already have a FE exa, i want to to this because theres no1 that would ever think of doing it, because it makes NO sense performance wise, because of the sound of the v6, not to talk sh*t about it, in the exa's light body that engine will be something else i dono if this makes sense to you, but thats why i want to do it. Unfortunatly the FE exa has a brother somewhere  i can safely say there's no v6 exa anywhere Sound like you had a bad experience with the 2.5  _________________ Mazda FE powered 2.0 16v Nissan Exa viewtopic.php?f=9&t=2286

Sounds like it will be a N/A monster.
If your interested.
I still have 2 complete doors(lh+rh) + bonnet + lights(lh+rh) + bumpers(front and back).
And some other 1500 spares I think - must just go and check.
Regards
RR
