Looks nice. I read the thread but I must have missed a few things.

Is the motor stock?Did you buy it like this?Why did you swich cars?

Other then that it looks nice. I like it alot. Are you a risky devil? I saw the sticker.

The motor is stock.

I switched cars because my 14 was BEAT and I've always wanted a 13. So... here we are.I'm not a Risky Devil. I'm a friend. I AM a pink godzilla.

I bought the car with some of the parts, but I did a lot of the stuff on my own. All the suspension I did, steering wheel, wheels, brakes, all the bars, cage, etc.

looking good Brian.

Dude... you seriously need to toss a turbo under the hood man. I'd say, like 250-280ish whp would be just right. We need to see some thick smoke behind those action shots, lol.

but none the less, car looks great!

Nice, some of my friends are risky devils. S13 hatches are super nice and yours superceeds the bar. So you built some of the car.... no build thread? No pics of it in the process of being built?

I will have to check out your site

Builds are the best part about online blogs. It shows people what others are doing and its also shows who are the talkers, and who are the walkers. It also gives people a referance on how to do things. And on the very top of my list on why they are the best.... I'm so sick of threads where people ask what WE think they should do. Or call outs to this kind of car or that. Those are all pointless threads. Build threads show progress and are a benifit to all who see it.

Was the car already 5 lug prior to purchase?

Nice car, i would love my car to have type x kit but would rather not paint it

yes, 240lookis knows the story.

justshiftboots.com

I am getting a pair of 17s and a set of 18s in the Model V design. I forgot what size....

The car was not 5 lug.

I used ICHIBA in front and .... I don't know what the rear is. Z32 I guess. Pretty sure they were used Z32s.

your interior is looking clean! i have 2 questions...1. are those S14 seatbealts? they seem like the easiest and most common swap for the automatic attack OEM ones...2. is the floor painted white beneath the sound deadening material from the factory or did you spray that?

Thanks.

I swiped the seatbelts from my old car. Only difficult part was figuring out how to cut the plastic panels to fit them. I don't really like how it came out....

I resprayed the whole interior white. It was silverish/blue before.

ahhh...

i know you like expensive authentic parts, and it looks great... i think i saw some guy selling Canadian pillar panels that apparently accepted the non-mechanical seat belts.... check the classifieds, ill see if its in my history...
