How about get an sr for your car and then donate the ka to your brother!

Thanks for looking out for me on those things, even if you don't have them, it's the thought that counts. I still haven't seen fnf3 yet, but maybe I'll try to catch it this weekend since it not so new now. I'm glad to hear some decent reviews from credible sources that's for sure.

I really liked FF3. I thought it was alot better then the other ones. Alot more realistic. I dont care what people say either. People on here get pissed and say it sucked because they didnt have the culture'll atmosphere right. it shouldnt matter though, its a damn movie isnt it?

all of the fabricating should be just about finished so now we can go back and start dressing it up. Trust me, I am a neat-freak especially when it comes to a car, I would not leave anything "sloppy!"

I'll post more pix as it starts to look better...

honestly, I like the black better. that's pretty badass.

also, imo I think am s13 coupe needs the silvia front, but that front lip would look cool on a coupe as well, especially if your paint is already good enough not to have to redo it.

yesterday, I worked on my car and got the ka out and the sr sitting in the engine bay. Far from complete, but its a start. Jordan, let me know if you want to buy the ka motor, and bryton, I found that starter if you want it, the smaller part (solenoid I think?) looks burned but the starter itself looks brand new.

That looks like a nice start man! I personally like to keep it in the family but no one can deny the LS1's an awesome power plant. There is a guy around here in Greenville that has one in his 300 its a beast.

Is it an olser 300? It has to be, Because mine should only make the 4th one completed and I am almost sure it is the only one on the east coast, I could be wrong though. If he is in greenville SC, I need to get in touch.

I'm sure it will look sweet once its done, but in the meantime . The LS1 is a sweet motor, both in design and potential. That should be a very clean set up once all is said and done. What does a swap like that cost including fabrication expenses?
scs13 wrote:... i really want a front lip like this, but i cant find one.
That lip is , I really like how subtle it looks too, clean and yet a little menacing. It does look similar to a GReddy lip now that I look at it closer. Perhaps you could get a GReddy lip and do a little fabrication to get the look that you want. That 240 makes a nice wallpaper too..lol!

That's cool man, I'll look into what it will cost for that solenoid. What do ya want for it?

ClubSX that would look sweet on your car in either color imo. Are those 52mm fenders on the rear? How do you guys think it would look with wide fenders (f&r) and flared lips?.

Yea. I was thinking of doing a bit of wide body work too. I want something that will be TOTALLY different. Even if it takes a few years to complete the entire car

I'm definitely feelin' ya on that. I don't want to be the owner of just another 240.

Imagine these two together, but not as much flare like in pic 2.

Sorry about the small pics, I tried to follow the instructions in the FAQ but it didn't seem to help to get an actual pic. I need to get into Photoshop so that I can make my life easier in these type situations.

are you talking to me or lowdedz? I've got pics of a 300 from nopi a few years back that had a ls1. Also, brandon you may remember there was an fd3s with one at last years nopi.

I haven't done anything to my car since I got the sr sitting in the engine bay. it was 3 in the morning and I could not go any further. I'm going to have to straighten it out because for some reason it sits cocked off to one side and the turbo outlet is sitting against the steering gear I worked til 9:30 tonight so I still have not had time to send off my wiring harnesses.
