Damn, those wheels are huge. I believe the s13s do have bigger wells.
Looking good though, kudos
Sense these are TOO big. I dont get it though I have seen s13 with 19" I dont understand why they dont fit?! badbob2121 wrote:ya those wheels are not looking great with a stock body, maybe with crazy widebody aero..
Hammer and Screwdriver.JDM240SXcoupe wrote:Looking good bro. I got a question for u.Im gonna replace my rear bearing because my is bad so my question is. Does the hub comes off when you remove that axel nut or do i have to use a hammer to make it come out? i know you said it just comes out when you remove the nut, but just wanna be sure thanks.
It is what it is this IS a budget build, I had the grand to spend on the Stance ones that I really wanted but no body has them without waiting months so F it. This is just a daily driver/drifter. I have a system no roll cage, no turbo, and I use my AC because I live in Flo-rida. I dont plan on reducing any weight on it any time soon.......so they will do to fit my needs. Plus at the price I got them I cant lose.allenms240 wrote:Godspeed?
That is why I was getting Stance LX +'s at the time. I got these for the function, and price, plus the time of availability. Which frees up extra cash to do other things with like suspension pieces.JDM240SXcoupe wrote:Thanks, with 1k u could have gotten powered by max competition coilovers. Much much better than Godspeed. I actually just order the powered by max pro coilovers, 1500 tho.
What accessories did you use with your dremel?420sxWETDREAMS wrote:How she looks so far after her first wash in a year! The steelies were atrocious filled with rust so my cousin attacked that that first and still need one more because he had to sand it with a dremel ugghh.

Im looking to get some cheap coils as well. Eventually ill upgrade but for now... anything is better then oem springs/struts, and i currently use my s13 as my daily/drift. Make sure to post up pics of em installed.

240sxAli4Life wrote:It looks so much better lowered! Look how tiny your wheel well looks with those small 15" wheels, and the car is slammed! Are you getting bigger wheels? 17s?
The tire size is 50, bigger than what I really wanted but beggars cant be choosers especially since they are new.

What panel do you speak of and what color?terry_240sx wrote:looks good!
i like the tail light idea, you just need to paint the lower panel.
Your ride is coming along great bro! But a quickie, I want to do the fogs myself, how did power them? Wire them up to the parking lights or what??420sxWETDREAMS wrote:Thanks for the props! I have to admit I did not invent the Fogs in the vent idea, thats just the great wide world of nico and the great intuitive members and their generosity of knowledge. I mastered the art of "Searching"! Props to Florida240sx, and user name!. I actually did USER NAME! DIY threadJDM240SXcoupe wrote:Coming out great.

The Valve cover I bought on ebay lol I can not polish either.
I know Im looking for an after market one, but its still a budget build. I've seen some nice ones. Just had to buy my son some new school clothes. Kid is growing too fast. The DCC wiring came out good with the you links I posted. I need to change the bulb to a blue led eventually so the whole interior matches. I will post picks of the complete interior tomorrow or soon had to re do the panels.badbob2121 wrote:the climate control and screen come together pretty well, looks good
you need to ditch that steering wheel now
