aight, so next week i'm coming up on a very nice very clean well maintianed 240sx s13 coupe. it's black. intake, header, test pipe, full exhaust, nismo steerign wheel, nismo coolant overflow, short shifter, and sleepy eyes mod. here are the things that i want to accomplish with the car by the end of the week:

the car has 2 painted se's and 2 unpainted se's, so i'm going to paint th eunpainted and repaint the painted. i am also going to spray the calipers red because it looks so damn good.

here's my dilemma. the color scheme of the car is red and black, and i am going to change all of the interior lights to L.E.D.s. my current issue is color choice. would a blueish white look good for the dash and dome light and would red look good on all other parts like the open door lights and stuff?

i'm also getting LED headlights :D

blackzenki82 has the bright white one sin his s14, and they'd look good in the s13. my only concern is that the colors may clash. anyone have pics of red LED's used in the interior?

50 bucks? there's an LED website much cheaper, different design. they make replacement bulbs for almost every bulb in the car

thanks man.

aight, after painting the wheels and brakes and getting the LEDs i'm going straight to the suspension. i'm thinking i get bushings first and then coilovers. are there any problems that i will run into if i run coilovers set to "slammed" with stock suspension arms?

lol, he's actually one of the best drifters in huntsville, funny enough. crazy dude, but i love him to death.

my first order of business is to get that car nice and clean on the outside, lol. it was a bit messy last time i saw it. why the hell does the skin on the stock s13 seats always peel away from the padding underneath? that really pisses me off... but yeah. clean it up partake in som espirited driving, and then see what it needs

yeah man, it's quite dusty. there's been no rain here for awhile. the body and interior are in amazign shape though, there's one quarter sized ding by the driver door handle, nothing bad at all. as for the wing. that thing has been through about 4 people in huntsville, it's most recent owner being ryan morard (i know u heard that name over on huntsvilledrift). but yeah, i want to replace it with a wingless trunk. i'll keep you posted

After seeing the pic of the previous owner hanging out the window I'm not sure I would touch the car with a 10-foot pole. But thats just me. Good luck!
