well i guess its about time i post my build, its been a long while in the making but I think its finally getting close to being done.

the plan was to make just a fun weekend track/dd car, reliable and street-able, around 300whp would be prefect i think...
this car was has been through the s13 community and came out worse then the whores in downtown portland...
bent subframe, crack RLCA, shit had positive offset in the rear and it sat higher then most stock x8, rear wheels had the mounting faces had been ground down for higher offsets? idk... car was fucked. picked it up though cuz it was running and had 5sp swap. I work a fucking lot, so its going slower then I'd like but you know, you either have lots of time and no money or lots of money but no time... i'm kind of some where in between with no time and only some money to work with.

so first thing i did was cut the springs, i dont really care what anyone says, riding high is worse the cut springs IMO... then replaced subframe and RLCA's





then found a guy selling 2jzge (na-t) out of his MKIV supra with trans and everything.



new clutch: spec 6puck



new rear main while I had access...



then while I was still driving the 7m around, it exploded on me...

it might be a little hard to see but thats the rod sticking out of the hole there in the block...

Snow time!


picked up some s13 coils for a good price so decided to use them...






cleaned up the engine bay



lowered on s13 coils



fronts




overall status

picked up z33 wheels for the rear with 12mm spacers, sit nice and flush on rolled fenders





since I have s1 xmember I decided to just custom build some



front fenders rolled about 10-15mm over


rear rolled with 12mm spacers on z33 wheels, good fitment

[white_raven]

then sanded it all down, laid primer and base coat of pink





final color will be pearlecent bubble gum pink, and waiting on aero before I finish painting it.

car as it sits as of this weekend! and thanks Mark for help with the Harness shit is killer!







just need to splice t5 plug and this shit should be able to turn over finally!

Dude the pink makes me want to fucking throw up. Seriously it's not a fuckin 240 man. Shit just makes you look like a scrub. If I knew it was pink I might not have done that for you.

Fail status for reals

[Foompla]

i hope you can REALLY FUCKING DRIVE if your gonna have a car that obnoxious.

[white_raven]

its just a fucking color, dont get your panties in a bunch.

[Gibbs]

i would have went purple! Richard might not be pleased with you now cause he is wanting to run with pink

[white_raven]

well me and his pinks are quite a bit different I think, mines more pearl bubble gum-ish his is more raspberry ish with like silver swirls... maybe too close? idk

[aphxero]
