Might buy another s13, is it worth it?

[thornberry]

Alright, so I came across a s13 and its in pretty good condition, but I'm not quite sure if its worth it.Alright to start out its a 93 SE hatchback, it has SUPER HICAS, and 170,XXX miles... oh yea its a AUTO.Now for what i want to do to it.Take off the wing and wiper, 5 speed conv., disable hicas, basic mods, and maybe down the line a LSX swap.What it needs (and I quote) "All that it needs is front brakes and rotors,and right outer tie rod end other than that its my daily driver."

Now for pics:

No pics of the interior which probably means its not in the best of condition.

And his asking price $1000

Any input will be appreciated.

South Carolina? Hows the frame rails look, any other rust? Lot of miles, auto, cracked dash, older car. See if you can talk him down a little if possible.

Georgia car, never wrecked, I knew I forgot to ask about something (rust) . He said the price was firm... I'll try to talk him down as much as possible.

If its rust free, Id take it.

Yea me either, but they say you can disable it somehow.

With connectors or a subframe swap

Nice find, I don't like HICAS but its Not forever if you don't want it. Looks good tho. Kinda annoying that you have to 5spd swap but Its probably not been abused which is nice.

Now correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't it have a lsd of some sort?

[OM3GA]

Yeah probably a VLSD they are nicer than open for sure but not the best pickle in the barrel.

There IS a hicas eliminator bar you can get, swapping the subframe is nice though.

Oh cool, I was probably going to replace it with an aftermarket one anyways but I guess I could roll on that for a while.Hmmmm... I might just replace the rear subframe depending on what kind of deal I can find on one.

Thanks for all the advice guys I really appreciate it . I'll keep you posted.

why would you wanna get rid of hicas? it sounds like it would be pretty cool having a 4 wheel steer 240 lol

[matty v]

i would only replace the auto with a 5speed. thats the only thing i see that you would need to replace.

4 wheel steering + drifting = weird

Twinkies and pickles make the world go round.
