Nice job, i want to do something similar.You said you had no previous auto experience, what did you use to help you through the project? Nico? To me it seems like completely stripping down a car and building it back up would be very difficult not having any help/experience..? thanks.

thank you. i just read a lot of things, did lots of research, and kept going with it. yeah i used nico, also zilvia, 240sxforums, random places found with google, etc.. but reading is one thing, actually doing it is where the real experience is. also i love doing resto jobs (mostly on smaller, simpler things though) so it's programmed in me and i always wanted to do a car. didn't think it would be my s13 though haha.

ive been suscribed to this post since withing 2 weeks after your first posting, and ive been watching and getting ideas and such and mainly been quiet but. not only is this a kick a** time consuming restoration project you got going, but i live in new hampshire and it gives me alot of little nooks to check for rust, luckily i have none yet (car came from georgia) but its an awsome guideline for me! thanks alot!!
