First i would like to thank my family and friends especially my wife and Hulkster_S13. i couldn't have done it with out you! So a little background on me first. Born and raised on the island of oahu. Started karting at the age of 10, Hawaii State Karting Champion in 2001 KT100 class. Racing is in my family. My dad race’s a DB1 FF in the San Francisco region SCCA. I have been in to 240sx since 1999, drifting since 2003. Got out of the drifting scene due to the only raceway park on our island shut down(still no track due to dirty politics!!!!!). I purchased this s13 in april of 2007 for the price of a whooping $700 with a 180sx type x black top. Only running on three cylinders. compression test reveals cylinder #4 zero compression, Leak down test on #4 reveals that a intake valve stuck open. So i decide i am going to do a full rebuild. After removal of the head it is revealed that a washer had some how got in between the valve and head keeping it open. So the build began. Due to the high cost of shipping to hawaii i would wait till i had some cash to throw away in shipping before i ordered stuff. It took a long time to get all the parts. So i will let the pic’s do the talking. If you don't like it then press the back button and move along!
