Like many on this forum, I signed up and creeped on the awesome builds that go on here. For me, this thread will serve more as a spot where I can keep track of what I've done since I have the absolute worst memory.
Unfortunately many of these first photos are taken off my instagram as I took them before I planned on making this thread. And since I have the s4, every time you drop it the screen cracks so I lost the photos.
Might aswell get started.
Bought this s13 about 2 months ago. Had a Ka24de with a 5 speed. Had the interior minus the dash. It was spray painted white and had stock 4 lug hubs. Interior smelt like butthole.
Ripped all the interior out along with sound dampening and back seats/mounts.
When I bought the car the engine bay was a purple flake and was stitch welded. My buddy and I made some tubs out of trailer covers and painted the bay black although this color is going to change.
Oopps! Broke the glass trying to take it out. Am I the only one that thinks these windows are hideous?
Tail lights came in. Although I was going to get these much later in the build they were a killer price that I couldnt pass up.
On Sunday we enjoy having sunday funday. My buddies come over and we usually do something stupid although we chose to work on our cars. I was mid building my car at this point.
Little baby 10 gallon fuel cell. Enough to get me from one gas station to the next.
The subframe bushings were beat. I unbolted the struts and tge whole subframe dropped from being so old. The bushings werent even holding it up.
If there was one thing this car needed it was different brakes. I decided to go with the dual z32 system. I bought and adapter off zilvia, cleaned these up and painted them black.
Here it is all bolted up.
The car was missing a dash and I felt like being creative. So, I attempted to make my own. Here it is.
I don't have a picture complete in the car but I will get one soon. Im happy with how it came out.
The way the car is sitting now except it has a door on it.
Me trying to shove my cars in as littoe room as possible.
I understand the quality of these photos arent the best. From here on out they'll be better. I had to screenshot/crop these off instagram.
I have plans floating in my head engine wise but I dont want to say anything yet as im not 100%
Stance has some nice coilovers im going to purchase. As for the color im going with a black / gold look when it gets to that point.
