ok so this is the first real thingy i've started!
got my coupe yesterday. its a 89 and its the most fun car I've driven!
But as most s13's go, it has a few problems!
it has many rusty bits, and a gaint hole leading from the wheel to my trunk. not to mention a hole in the exhaust and a rusted out front-left chassis.
so here begins a long walk!

Then rename the thread cause there's no build going on. Let's not be zombies and just say "Looks good man" or "Way to go!" when nothing is happening. :wtf2:

Its obvious he plans on updating this as he goes but i do agree with you that he should have just made "Im New" post first. Reguardless we shouldnt be rude. There are nice ways of making a point other than the obligitory "Fail".

Although I agree that this isn't a build thread, must ask what crawled up your pen15 and blocked off your ejaculatory passage?

If your going to come in and post shi* like that within your first 15 posts you need to be banned

Welcome to nico! Any auto parts store should carry an o ring kit.

Um IDK about the parts stores up there but I had to get my injector o-rings from the dealer cause all the parts stores around only had generic ones that did not fit, they cost me like $6 for like 7 or 8 o-rings from the dealer. Good luck fixing the problem.
