    Default s13 200sx road revival project

    Well been on this site bout 2 years now and mainly used it for buying parts but since I came home from oz things changed
    Was mad to get in to the drifting so picked up a e36 323i off a buddy for very cheap money. Plan was to build it up nice nd cheap nd trash it
    Round start of January Alan Opel's old s13 came up for sale and chanced my arm and offered him swap of my e36 323. He said yes and got her wit all the kit wheels coiloves 2 engines and gearbox
    Started work on her straight away stripping her to near enough bare shell to get her ready for paint at end of Feb

    Plans for her is to paint her a hot chocolate brown (mini colour). Vented front wings and pignose bumper with a dmax roof spoiler.
    Wheel wise will stick with the 15 mesh wheels under her nd give em a refurb
    Engine wise I'll be using the forged ca18det block that I have for it which is going away to be rebuilt soon
    Plan is to hav her on road by may all goin well
    Some pics of how I got her nd how she sits at the mo should be below

    Looks like a good base personally I wouldn't bother with the vented wings they don't suit standard body and small wheels

    Havent updated this in a few weeks.changed the direction in was gonna go with it and ended up buying 50 mm front and rear fender off just jap along with other body bits off members off the site.
    Stripped car down and found nice bit of rust round the place but have it all sorted now so she's good for paint now and should have her back off the slayers in bout 2 weeks

    Fun will start then putting it all back together. Have started gathering bits for the rebuild and aiming for September if funds allow to have her back on the road

    Engine wise sticking with the ca18 block and after doing bit of research should be able to get close to 300hp wit z32 afm, t28 turbo, gtr injectors and bigger fuel pump

    Here few pics
