My freshly finished RB25det S13

[RizzoTK]

Well I just finished my latest project. I originally bought the car as a budget build daily driver sohc ka-t. I had no plans to go this far with it, but once I pulled the sohc out and started cleaning up the engine compartment I decided to change the color (I am a painter at a collision repair shop here in central IL)from the original white to something a little nicer. once I started spraying the new color (07 G35 garnet fire mist) I really liked the new direction the car was going. From then on parts were coming in almost daily. I didn't even started building this car until mid-late March. I don't post much on here, I just lurk around searching info and spend the rest of my time in the shop. I built this car from the ground up completely by myself. let me know what you guys think.

lemme be the first to say

HAWT!

too much red for me tho you should've painted the engine like blue or something for some contrast...or black. but can't complain here looks flawless!

[tctomasc]

oh man thats clean. Good job man!

[fetherw8]

what paint did you use? thats exactly the color red i want my car.

[RizzoTK]

Thanks

what paint did you use? thats exactly the color red i want my car.

2007 Infinity G35 garnet fire mist metalic. Nissan code AY2

[white90esex]

nice man. I was actually just admiring that color earlier this week. Was thinking, that looks good. Wonder how my car would look painted like that.

I really like the whole car man, good job.

[MastaYu]

very clean! The paint is very nice and engine color is nice too

[Didderson]

Props on the piggy bumper, and having my most personally desired engine of choice

[pflicht]

YUM! Very fvcking hawt dude!

[alphapig]

Wow that's amazing.

I would suggest nicer wheels, and not in red?

[niemczykj]

the wheels kill it... and kouki tails anyone??

very nice car, amazing motor and paint

good work

[eidk]

I am loving the car. I'm very glad to see this done right. Please post pictures once you get that other stuff bolted up

[javinsMR]

wow!!! very clean swap bro!

[TK_Encore]

WOW!!! lovin that paint , very nice

[heartofaskyline]

sportsmax with that much money in the car, i def would have gone with a different wheels setup. and kouki tails would looks amazing on it.

[RizzoTK]

again thanks for the feedback.

As far as the wheels go they are cheaper wheels but I think they look good for now. They may be upgraded later, but my priorities are getting my Neukin manifold and dp and build a custom dash cluster with Nexus or Defi gauges. My budget always get spent more more on the perfomance / function side of things first. I am sure it will have more upgrades in the future, because a car is almost never done!

[nevertheless]

Wheels are hawt IMO, nice car.

[srpowered240sx]

bitchin car, wheels look perfect on there, dont let the sportmax haters get to you, they look great. really nice build.

[2g00d4u]

Awesome car.

May I ask how much you've spent altogether on the rebuilt?

[Dire91]

The red is a really nice color but there is a little to much of it.

[Cone Junky]

How could people say there is too much red? Just because his VC and timing cover are red?I think the black roof more than makes up for "too much red".

Besides, it's a great color and he obviously did a great job at laying it down.

It's great to see a pignose so well done

[Dittoz7]

Nice!

But Would Have Gone With TSW's Track Stars.Come in Both 4 And 5 Lugs.

[meet07]

how wide are the TSW's in the 4-lug??

hot car

[Dittoz7]

Sizes 15x6.5 16x7.0 17x7.0

Pretty Weak

But 5 Lugs Have Better Ones.And Look Better. IMO

15x6.5 16x7.0 17x7.0 17x8.0 18x8.0

[boriquaS13]

Very clean and very nice job, the wheels look good imo cheap or not.
