I'm bored in Microeconomics and figured i should post some pics (because everybody loves pictures) since I've been on the site for 2 years now and hardly post at all. I bought the car fresh (as seen in 1st few pics) from the classifieds on this site from NJ.

This is her the day I bought her. $2500 clean as can be with 68,xxx miles.

Then came suspension. I'm one of those autocross/track day/Touge guys. (occasional drifter....it is after all a 240)
Image


Then THAT suspension got old so i got these - Megan racing Track Coilovers
Image


Then over the winter i bought this. A fresh, 2000 miles on a rebuild SR20DET
Image


The begining of summer '10 it looked like this

At the end of summer '10 it looked like this

49 posts in two years. F**king Lurkasaurus.

Car looks good. Aesthetically I'd say it needs to be lower and it needs less tire, but you seem to actually do shxt with your car, which I applaud, and so forget I said anything.


Carry on.

The Diff is #1 on my list of mods. Ill prob be doing that with in the next mont. Im not sure what kind of rims yet....It needs to be really light weight. I don't hate the look of my rims now, but they are only 7" wide. I've always liked a nice offset pair of rims with wide tires. They will help a lot on the track too.

Loving the s13 conversion in ur sig btw. I love clean 240s.

^^ I agree, but I cant fit my sneaker under the front lip. I street drive my car a lot and roads here suck. I do a lot of touge driving with friends, so a little higher than usual is needed. and yes.....i am a "lurkasaurus"

Really, it's perfect.

I like slammed cars and all that, but it IS totally nonfunctional, and I like to see people still building clean attractive cars that can actually do shxt.

Those rotas set it off really nice and that SR looks clean. Was it an oem rebuild?
