So I havent posted pictures of my car in a while, so here it goes.

Bought the car in february last year and it was a pile of shit.




That engine lasted me less than 100 miles before I decided to just replace it rather than fix it. And me being poor, I couldnt afford much. So I picked up an S14 sr20de pretty cheap.



I then got a new bumper and some ssr wheels, the car stayed like this for a while.



In july I got my ksport coilovers and some new wheels, the 17's rubbed against the coilovers.





I recently bought some 16 inch volk racing mesh wheels, which I had to raise the car to use with the tires that were on them. I put the wheels on the car tuesday, and I took these pictures about 10 minutes ago.

nice!!!, time for a $50 Paint Job!

and no turbo??

I didnt have the money at the time for a turbo engine.

swwweeett wheels

Wow, you really go through wheels.

I cant help it. Oh well, the 15's are currently for sale, which should give me money for tires for the 16's.

how much for em wheels size plzz

What? The black wheels are 15x7 with 205/50R15 tires. I was asking $500 for them with tires.

i prefer your ssr wheels.....meh....

nice ride......inspired me for my beaten up civic.....

I reckon a respray in Black or Red would look good!

Bodywork doesn't seem to be matching up on the right side of the car...

OMG! OMG! RICE FTL! LOLZ!

j/k Looks like you're making some decent progress on that car. Keep up the good work and it will all come together.

So do I, but I need spacers so they dont rub on the coilovers




Yeah, the fender that came on the car was dented pretty bad, and I got the black one for free. The original front bumper had a huge hole cut in it for some reason, so I got the current one I have pretty cheap.

I'm currently in the middle of replacing the timing chain and pretty much cleaning the whole engine bay up.

I think it would be good in blue

Thats one of my top color choices. It would be a dark blue.

That'd be very nice, so fresh, so clean

This is what it looks like currently, right now I'm waiting on my timing chain kit to come in the mail.







If I dont go with blue, I was thinking mabey a dark grey.

dark grey would be fantastic.

Paint it pearl white !

save your paint monies and put in more performance parts

Charcoal Gray with black rims, sexy time yes?

Because of school, I havent worked on the car in almost two weeks. My dads lotus is out of the body shop so I lost my garage space. So my dad is being nice and is parking his landcruiser outside until the car is movable again.

In other car news, I got my coilovers for my volvo and I have almost all the parts I need to put a 5 speed manual in it.

Did you cut down your mailbox to make your engine lift?

lol, no. I now noticed that it looks like that with the wooden ramps in the background.

update. Its almost back together. Right now I'm waiting for my valve shim tool, and once the valves are shimmed, there's not much left to do.

Its definately a lot cleaner than before

Pic's Broked.

Yeah I know, the site I host them on has been doing that lately.


They're fixed now.

what exactly have you been doing to your engine?

replacing the timing chain, and I got new cams.

how much gain are you looking at with the new cams?

at least 15hp or something around that.

this thread is full of win... but seriously that is one clean motor! one of my friends did a similar thing to his 240SX, but he painted the block his acid green...

omg almost done.

whats that lil' blue car in the background?

Its my dads lotus elise.

Ah! I thought so. Does he daily drive it?

your dad drives a lotus, and he couldnt help you pay for a SR20DET? anyways, the engine looks nice and its really coming along.

It runs, but I need a new intake cam gear because the vtc isnt working.

Nice project! Keep it up!

Reminds me of my old '92 240sx coupe. I miss this car, so fun to drive!

It is, which is why it sucks I havent driven it in so long. I'm buying some s13 cam gears off someone so I can temporarily eliminate the vtc, that way I can at least drive it around until I buy a new vtc gear.

I started working on the volvo today, my dad isnt happy about my taking up the garage

I love your Volvo, but those black rims are disgusting.

Looking good mate! Envy the two cars you have...even your dad's also...

Yeah, those wheels arent even mine. The wheels that are normally on the car are on my white volvo right now. Those are basically there to roll it around.

Well, I have three cars. My third is a volvo 240 which I'm driving around while I'm working on these two.

Its put back together and runs, hooray!

Update, I took this picture on friday.

Cool new front end! What the heck is it off of? (Meesa clueless about 240s/Silvias).

It's the front end of a S13.
