1986 Sigma Wagon Daily

[boogernissan]

ok so you all know i have the wagon,im startin to get a bit carried away and have started doing silly things to it

i paid 170 bucks for the car and paid the rego on it,$400 bucks or close to so far.......

has a little bit of rust which i might actually repair,i have gaffa tape covering it at the moment

pics





decided to paint the bonnet black

[boogernissan]

cannon to go on



if anybody is good with photo shopping,can you put some big rims on it,slam it on its guts and do an aussie flag on the roof please??

from this pic


cheers in advance

i like driving it,it goes sideways in the gravel quite nice,so im gonna replace the clutch,and lock the diff up for some epic burnouts ,also thinkin of extractors,exhaust,2 barrell weber conversion and a decent airfilter,the daily is turninng out to be another project just for shits and giggles

[boogernissan]

Its KITT in Wagon form

all he needs now is the red LED's on the front.

No seriously, I like it. Gotta do something with the wheels dude....

[www.18u]

Go the wagons Where did you buy your springs? Or did you chop them?

[DanTurboLancer]

Kitt had full blank wheels and painted black.

And im sure you can by the Led lights that go back and forth from Jay car!!


Not taking mikey, i like it too,
Like alot of guy would agree, i just grew up on the old Car tele shows.

Hey just an idea, could you remove and blank off the side mirrors and put Japanese style front fender mirrors on?
In Black or maybe Chrome?
JDM style

[boogernissan]

the front fender mirrors would look cool i rekon,i might have to polish up all the chrome on it too,as for springs,i just chopped them for the moment,may look at getting lowered springs and shortened shockies to suit,the front shocks are stuffed so its a touch bouncy at the moment,doin a new clutch in it in a week or so then a couple weeks after that im gonna take it down the strip to see how slow it is!!

and yes,im looking into gettin some rims for it too,been offered some 16 inch 2 peice silvia rims for it but just dont have the cash at the moment

the front fender mirrors would look cool i rekon

If you go that way, can I buy the old mirrors? Mine are busted (thanks to pricks who feel it's a good night's entertainment to smash them off when parked).

[boogernissan]

will they fit yours?

if so,just pay for postage and you can have them,the passenger one is a bit dicky,the little stick inside doesnt move the glass but other then that there ok

[camB]

Yep, my doors are from a GN wagon (gotta love tight-arse Mitsubishi, "why pay for another panel mould when we have a perfectly good one from 1978?")
How much to post to 3070?

[boogernissan]

wouldnt have a clue mate,ill have to pull em off and weigh em and see what size box i can fi tem in,gotta get me some chrome mirrors first for mine

[camB]

Well, if you do go that route I'll certainly pay postage & packing. Getting sick of mine being held on with wire and duct tape.

[boogernissan]

going shopping for mirrors on the weekend,any ideas what cars had chrome mirrors?

im gonna try get some chrome domes off sumthin to use

[boogernissan]

[DanTurboLancer]

I would never condone doing anything illegal... wink wink
But maybe a light tint on those tail lights would look good too...

Hey thought i would show you the Chrome mirrors i used on my LA
I got them from PITCREW here in Newcastle, probably get them, or get them ordered anywhere, but mostly from a hotrod or custom or performance shop...

I think they were about $70.. it was afew years ago.


Now I thought they looked pretty cool, but to be totally honest, thats all they are, is looks. they are absolutely useless if you want to actually use them, too small, cant adjust them etc....

But another option...




Here you can Blurrily see they just fit on the side of you Bonnet and the grub screws hold them on..





And on the car

[boogernissan]

they look cool,but i think i might have to get some bigger ones so i can still actually see hahaha

heres a quick vid with some sound from the cannon,i rekon if your not mechaniclly minded you could almost mistake it for a turbo on idle

Yahoo Japan for the mirrors, most of the 80's cars over there came with electric fender mirrors from factory

stereo

things changed for stereo but at least i got some bass

still aint got rims yet

ps,neons are no longer hooked up,i connected em last night and got over it pretty bloody quick,i havent removed em yet cos there sort of helpin hold the panels in there

[www.18u]

This thing is coming along great. I am interested in how you mounted the 6x9's. Could you put up some more detailed pics please?. I have been putting this off because of where the tool kit part is.

[boogernissan]

i just cut holes in the plastics,i removed the jack,so if i get a flat,im stuffed hehehe,

the left one was a bit more involved as there is metal plating or bracing behind the plastics,i pretty much just cut what i needed out im gonna make up some mdf panels i think as they arent to solidly mounted,the plastics tend to rattle aswell

[boogernissan]

still waitin on rims,got a dardy stereo though

alpine splits



new deck
(gotta big gap above and below the deck which im gonna make up some plates for it to cover it all,gonna make it with alloy checker plate that i have here at home)





still got 5 inch splits to go in the rear doors

2 12's,kenwood 2 ch,boss 4 ch,sony 6x9's


getting a custom install in the rear early next year which will see the 6x9's mounted on an angle in mdf and stuff

[boogernissan]

[boogernissan]

rear door splits



fixed up a dent in the bumper,theres enough room for an intercooler in there!!



painted the grill black

[Skidmark]

Shes look'n good dude love the sound system ,you could cruise up next to someone in the dark of night with ya lights off and then turn the steza on full and give em a thrill !!

[DanTurboLancer]

Hey man, i really liked the pic you took out doors there, and i thought the Red strip around the bumper looked good, Broke up the black just alittle.

[boogernissan]

couple of people have sed they liked the red strip so i have put it back in ,i need to get a new bumper cos mines all dented up from a prang the car has been in,not me i might add,also need front left guard aswell and the ill get a new red strip for the front bumper and may look at doin a thin red pin stripe all the way round when the panel and paint gets done properly
