That is one clean S13. How much did you pay? Miles? What are your plans for the car?

Sell me your wheels.

haha I am in the process of hopefully trading the wheels for 18's but she's an auto with 97 thousand miles on it and rust free (like omfg) and I got a trans n the way to be a manual! I love it so far, but I think she has a lil case of the 240 timing chain chingle haha

keep posting I am like so proud of this thing and I got a ticket today for no sticker in maine yet,....... getting one soon. so I need so encouragement to keep alive the spirits!

haha I plan to make an all around solid daily driver with reasonable ride height and godspeed products.... I like their stuff... it's my dd so I wan to replace all the timing chain stuff and convert into a manual then start taking some baseline numbers and build up from there where budget allows.

so plans are timing chain gears chain and guide kit,then plugz/wirescat-back/intakecams/fuel pump/rebuild the headheaderecu......... and so on and so forth

18s look icky on an S13.

Nice find! Bit extreme to go 500 miles to get it, but hey... at least you have it.

I'm going to be the first to say it...but before you get 18's get coilovers.

Do you know what the offset of the 18's are?

Be careful talking about Godspeed goodies.... a lot of people hate then recommend megan racing stuff (who also started on ebay)

I rock godspeed coils + rucas... no issues cept some squeeky rucas. I sprayed them with some stuff and no issues since then.

haha more than 500 miles try like 1200, haha but it was soo cheaper than shipping it and i paid 1500 for the car so to me it was worth it.

I like godspeed product havent had any experience with personaly, but I really like their coilovers and upper and lower control arms, so are they chitty or usable? cause besides produc I like their prices too

The 18's I was lookin at trading my alloys for are comin off a 240sx idk what the offset is but the work on the car. I know it'll look f'de up with out being dropped first but I can deal with that if a I got some rims worth lookin at sitting under the fenders

so any one else use godspeed products?????????

I wouldn't recommend GodSpeed, unless you're okay with cheaping out on suspension parts. You get what you pay for. Yes the parts work, but they may be hard to install(don't fit correctly), go out faster than others, break faster than others.. It's personal preference, do it right the first time, or do it again later.
