    not much changed except i removed the ABS, and plumbed all new brake hardlines and installed a full set of SS brake and clutch lines.

    working on subframe, T A bushings and Diff now.



    I have a bunch of drift goodies kickng around for my s13, so i was going through the junk and found one of those bullshit drift spin knobs for the E brake.

    I took the E brake handle apart and fitted the spin knob over the oem knob and JB welded that shit solid. Its more of an aesthetic thing, but it also works













    heres some randoms that i took with my cell last night















    I fucking love this paint!

      Sweet car! A little too much flake in the paint (for me) but it's a cool color.

        Disaster strikes

        Experienced some abnormal vibrations and clunks, so took a peak and found some carnage!!





        SAVED BY THE STEERING RACK BOLT!!!


        got to work and sourced a clean cross member, welded some re-inforcment tabs and welds, cleaned it up and painted it, cleaned and painted up some other stuff too....

          small update

          Scored some black sport seats, the drivers has a small tear, going to get it recovered, the passenger is MINT, these are sooooo comfortable, been waiting to find a set for the longest time.

          installed some cheapy frog lights!, hooked up to the OEM switch.








          Next thing up is to figure out some french style yellow highbeams, with the smoked crosshair light set from Ary. Any help would be appreciated

                      As was said before, a little too much flake for me but your car still looks great! Why aren't you rocking a quebec plate? Then you could ditch the ON front.

                              I literally cut away the existing metal lower valance following the line just below bumper. lined up the ES valence and screwed it into the underside of the bumber, on the sides I used some aluminum flatbar with a bolt under the front lip of the fender where it meets the bumper down to the lower part of the valence. Its not perfect, but I had nothing else to work with at the time.
