Finally the S13.5 is back (56k click link then take break)

[TRBOMOFO]

here are some updated pics

here it is at wyotech getting tuned and dynoed



some interior pics







Now to the damage

I got hit by a 94' Chevy Sevice van

He was from Ohio and had NO licence NO insurance

i lucky have speacilty insurance so i will be okay

but for now i got a HUGE paper weight for sale (looks like a intercooler) just kidding

but yeah i have it back in the garage getting a new facial (i am still doing the same design but its all new )

also picked up a ARC titanium gradation spark plug cover and im going to polish the valve cover

pics later



if this happens again i will sell the car or just garage it and get a new project this is getting ridiculous

i love my 240

[ThuG LyFe]

oh wow that totally sucks man. why does it seem like every1 that gets into accident gets into one w/ someone that has like no insurance and stuff? i hope you fix it up, seriously haven't seen another 13.5 that looks as nice as this.

[safin]

[idahotuner]

damn dude that blows. if soem oen hit me after i just got mine finished i would probably kill them.

[austins240]

dude that sucks hahaha

i'm about 4-5 hours north of you, so at least i don't have competition with another s13.5 :P

if i had to say ONE thing i'd do to the car, i'd lower it a bit more. cause the first pics looks like my buick stopping HARD hahaha

let me know if you need to sell any of your parts, i'll buy em from you. i break my front end a lot too. O.o

[TerminalVelocity]

That sucks bigtime.

Is the guy who hit you paying anything?

[Nissan240sx_s13]

Thats a nice car, I havnt seen any C-west kits besides when that stupid cop found that perfect,legal,riced out R34 in the middle of no where. Just because of you thoe I might go s13.5<3

[beerson]

I have the same Corbeaus...did you get them reapholstered in suede? Mine are super faded...anyway, do you have the corbeau rails? I do and they sit pretty high...do you by chance know of any rails that will sit them super low?

martinsburg

i got a friend named danny whalen that is from there and he has a white S14 with a sr swap

the gap is becuase i am shooting up and the wheel is cocked so you get to see more wheel well

[1991h9]

I`m really wanting to do the s15 conversion as well,you mind helping me out finding a good place to find a kit?By the way, nice!!!!!!!i never seen one so lined up before, they are usually all messed up.Good Stuff

[Hcraig13]

Am that really sucks. Your car was one of the like 3 s13s that made me fall in love with these cars. Definitely the sexiest s13.5 ive ever seen. Hope that never happens again. I would hate to see that car garaged. If you ever go to sell it hit me up. I might sell my house for that.

[brandonDavid]

[Fractur3]

looks sick man, i always though an s13.5 would look wierd but it must just be the coupes. Sick car bro, i know what it feels like to have some dumbass run into, aint cool.

[NismoManS13]

Nice job man kudos 2 u!

[sldewyz]

[TRBOMOFO]

na im with TPG TUNING so i went up there to tune the race car then on the side i got nate to tune mine

[Siizzzoooo]

this car seems familiar...was I the one who sold you the Bomex sides and rear skirts like 5 years ago?..lol

[TheS13Guy]

Very nice work!

[ghettoslide]

Thats on awesome car, looks all supercarish. I can hear the girls now, " What kind of car is that? " She looked great and i am sure she will again, no trips to the 7-11 in that beast. You would be amzed at how many people don't have insurance. They have a new program they are working out here in texas were they can run your plate and tell if the car is insured or not. It has got that bad. Good Luck with everything man. I wish mine looked half tat good. It would take me two more years to get there.

[idahotuner]
