Dammit, I just realized I posted this in the tech forum. I forgot I switched forums when posting..That is what I get for SEARCHING, then posting...LOL Can I get this moved to the proper sub-forum? Thanks.

Hello all. Been reading this forum since atleast 2002 IIRC, but never got around to posting. I had a screen name years ago.ANYWAY, I am on my 5th S-chassis. All of them have been S13's. Last one I had, I sold over 3 years ago. I picked this one up for $700...not running last month. That is OK, because I knew what was wrong with it as I have done everything to this car, for the previous owner. He just got a bit rev happy, bent 2 valves & gave up on the car. Well now the car is up & running. Just needs "some" electrical work. I cannot drive it at night because of no tail lights. Other then that I got pretty much everything sorted out with it. Has a few mods now, nothing expensive or outrageous. All mods were either free, or very inexpensive since I do everything myself.

List of what I have done so far, most were done while the PO had the car, but I did them for him. All emissions removed, intake butterflies removed, rerouted engine harness(I hate wires everywhere), Clutch line mod, welded diff, custom exhaust, modified stock seats, electric fans, trunk mounted battery, Shortened stock intake(moved to old battery location) w/ Ebay filter & adapter thing & a few other odds & ends.

I need to work on the suspension, headlight motors & tail lights in order to get it up to 100% functional. Right now it has these cheap $20 coil over sleve things..JUNK. But I have stock springs & struts waiting to go on, which I should be doing tomorrow. Headlight motors, will not stay down. I hit the button & they rotate all the way around from full UP to full DOWN & full UP again & stay there.

Other then that it is just my driftbitch project. Something can have fun with & beat on a bit when I want to.. I will be taking more pics today & tomorrow. These were taken while I still had it over in the shop.







Holy fender gap Batman..
