    updated pics of my non-E30.

    a few little pain in the ass odds and ends to finish up. like finding powersteering fittings, and making new lines. wiring up and relocating battery to the trunk. wiring up stand alone and tuning, etc. so far, everything is going relatively smoothly. no more major hang ups, i think we're in the clear the rest of the way. i have my fingers crossed reguardless.


















    should make 300ish whp with the stock POS turbo. also have jdm rear bumper and valences, and front lip to go on. just got my stance GR+ Pro coilovers yesterday:



    and then i have to buy tires for these:




    then probably decide whether to have it repainted and de-dinged, or GT35R and shoot for 450whp.

    That car is fucking awesome, and those wheels are tits. I love S13's, and I see you've done the JDM headlight conversion. S13's look SO much better with the JDM headlights, they're so much more aggressive looking. The USDM ones make the front of the car look so bland.

      its actually an S14. and the headlights are bone stock. 97-98 s14's are pretty rare. that is why everyone asks me about my 'headlight conversion'. lol. i appreciate it though man.

      it will look just like this when the front end is put back together:

        That looks like a late model s14 to me.

            very nice, I've always respected those swaps. as long as it's not rusty I'd say screw paint, and go w/ a man's turbo ;)

              you can get a zenki (95-96) and swap a kouki (97-98) front on to it. its very common, and relatively easy as far as front end swaps go.

              thanks guys. its taken over a year to get this far for some reason. feels good knowing i will be able to drive it soon. but it did snow here today.. sonofabitch.

                    lol.

                    i think the wheels will set off the red really nicely. like this one:




                    and for the record, i had the wheels before i saw pics of this car. haha.

                      Your wheels are tits. That is a fact.

                      It's not how you handle the good times, but the faith you keep in the bad that defines you.

                        thanks man. i like to think i have decent taste. although i get ALOT of shit from my buddies. lol. seriously though, wheels are really important to me. i dont do bodykits or anything like that. i think that the only true way to set a car off, is with a tastefull set of wheels. although i must admit, these are my first pair of 'expensive' wheels. thankfully i found a deal on them. they go for $2400 new in this size/offset. ive already got my next set picked out. hahaha.
