I'm not the type to take credit of other people's work but I bought the car with all the parts. LOL.My goal is to repaint it, rebuild a KA24E and turbo it,replace damaged parts,and for now get different deep dish rims.I can't go any lower I drive through bumpy roads with potholes on weekends.I already bent my tension rod bracket and broke my bumper support bar on passenger side.Thanks guys.I did though put the JDM bumper lens, engine damper,new valve cover gasket,a quick release steering wheel,2din touch screen,etc.Well stay tuned cause you see a built car now but I'm going for a switch.

sounds like you've got a good plan for it. Anything like a silvia or 180sx front in the future? And i know you bought the car like that but would you happen to know how much those wheels are? i think those are one of the only nice four lugs...

Interior is all bad.Boxes with car parts,oem tear drop tires in the trunk,missing cluster trim cause of an incident that happened and I broke it cause I couldn't put the key in the ignition.All I say never to something the cheap way. I will take some once I get my new steering assembly and got the interior together.

No 180sx bumpers or silvia.If that was the case I think my car would be gone by now.You know how haters are. I am thinking of the silvia front end though might look too sexy in red after a new paint job. I think the wheels run around 500-700 w/ out tires?Not sure I did see them at like 180 each?Depending on offset and sizes.

Yeah.The SR is cool but not feeling it as everyone has it well almost.Also it'd need a rebuild so I don't run into problems and parts are like $50 for a SR wires feel me?So the KA is best best plus if I get pulled over it's a KA.

The bumper lights I traded some guy for my z32 sleeve on coilovers. Also the paint looks good in the pic but the passenger door is all scratched up and both fenders messed up.Look closely the driver one is terrible.

Drag aren't known to have many RWD sizes/offsets available. A quick search found only DR31's that would fit like crap on a 240. I'd advise against these wheels.
