Haha will do broseph. I'll take some engine bay and interior pictures and post those up. Another s13 will be joining me for the next street session, which will probably be Friday in the rain. Stay tuned for some new pictures then.

Thanks! It's only like 3/4" lower in the front and like 1/2" lower in the rear, but it makes a big difference as far as looks go. Surprisingly I don't scrape very much either, my exhaust is tucked up pretty nicely though so it only hits on large bumps. I actually made it over a speed bump the other day, I was so happy haha.

yeah i'm learning that driveability is a big deal, it sucks when you are not being able to go to some place because your car is too low

Haha there are a few places around campus that I can't get to, so I just park and welk. Downtown Raleigh is pretty bad too, lots of construction. As long as I watch where I'm driving it's usually not an issue.

How is your exhaust to ground clearance?

same here man, but around here a nice car shouldn't be left in a dark parking lot overnight so I raised up the rear a tad so the exhaust is about 2.5" off the ground and i barely, i mean barely clear the speedbumps..every time i go over it i hear metal scraping and popping I'm gonna do a straightpipe soon so it should be way better for ground clearance

I see you have an HKS hi power tip, do you have a resonator underneath the car?

I love the action shots btw

I live in Poquoson (Hampton), I have the same user name on VaDriven as well as Sumospeed. The car wash happened in Raleigh NC, it's where I go to school. You're welcome to the next s13 wash day but you'll have to drive a ways haha.

Yeah, I don't park my car on campus for that reason. Besides, a parking permit is like 250 bucks haha. I do have the full Hi Power system, resonator included. I'll take some underneath shots so you can see my ground clearance. Over last summer I went to an exhaust shop and had my downpipe cut and rewelded, as well as everything tucked up really high so it doesn't scrape. Here are some more action shots, I think I spun out after the 2nd shot was taken haha.

So I'm guessing that your wheel specs are 17x8 if not what because they fit so well and I have been looking to get some just like yours please do tell oh and where did you buy them sorry for the questions but i love these rims and have been trying to find out the best size and yours seems to be my favorite look.

16x8 +9 effective. I got them on ebay about 2 years ago. Rota RB-R. The car is very low, it's hard to have no fender gap with such small diameter wheels.

Well since this thread is on the first page again I guess I'll post this here. I went to the dyno yesterday to see what it was putting down, I'm pretty happy with the numbers. Here's the graph and some videos.

i know dude, I've been thinking of running a 240sx emblem again haha! But as far as I know, the 240 emblem is like twice as much as the silvia emblem from frsport...weird
