I'm thinking about repainting the 240

[Infinite]

New ford gray, the interior of the car is already that color. i think it would look good. something similiar to the full-race r14

Looks good.

Are you going to paint it or do you have someone that is doing it? Because I need to get the interior of my car painted.

i'll probably do it myself at my buddies booth. he may help me. i dunno yet. its dupont black now and prepping the car will be a bitch mostly because of the engine bay

[Carina240sx]

Ok so your interior is already painted right? How did you get all that sound deadening crap off the floor board? That sound proof stuff is a bitch to get off. I am using a small propane tank/torch and scrapping it off. Also do you have any pics of your interior? Do you have back seats?

I'm trying to decide what color my engine bay, inside, and trunk is going to be... I'm thinking a simple gunmetal. Have to decide quick since I should be painting it next week! :-D

the more you heat that tar shit the stickier it gets. use dry ice. it turns it brittle... you hit it with a hammer and it shatters

i dont have back seats. i may have pics somewhere

Also, Carina, Gum remover may help. It gets really cold when you spray it on. It's pretty much the same effect that infinite was talking about. I use it at work all the time.

[Infinite]

yea but then that shit gets gummy

[Dgardi]

Nahh, not the one I use. It's almost like canned air. But REALLY effing cold. I'll check it out at work today.

btw.

That ford gray = HAWT.

And for what doesnt come off with dry ice... I used Air Craft stripper in a spray can. Just wear a mask and dont inhale.

It actually starts boiling the deadner, and you just take a paint scraper and remove it. takes it all the way down to the metal.

dry ice, dry ice, dry ice.

Get a few pounds at publix crush it up and spread over the deadner. Wait a 5 minutes then smack with rubber hammer voila! Comes off in big chunks. Theres nothing better.

dam that car is nice!

[Infinite]

yea, aircraft stripper is great... i only use it when i plan on repainting the area i just stripped though.

im thinking about doing but i may have a kid that wants to buy the 240... i hope so we'll see.
if he doesnt buy it, i'll probably get the rb26 ready to drop in and go on ahead and get the paint done

ford grey is teh sex. it's one of my choices when I decide to get my car painted. Porche Seal Grey is nice too.

[Infinite]

well if i have to pull the head off to solve this motor issue i may just pull the whole thing and repaint it... fuck it

The grey looks nice man. You don't see it too often...
