dont know the car but, what do you want to know about building it? assume you want to drift. common stuff coilovers, swaybars, tough clutch. looks a little rough like its had a hard life you might want to do your cradle bushes general stuff... have fun with it Mainly about the RB20DET in it, is it worth fixing it up, or should I just pull it out and put in a new motor? Looking for coilovers and swaybars at the moment, if anyone knows of any second hand ones for sale? Also after spacers for the rear wheels |

depends on how much cash you wanna throw at the car, RB20det's are pretty crappy IMO at least a 25 would be nice with much nicer power figure but the we could go on all night about other engines VQ30's 1jz's 2jz's etc etc then we lead into drive terrain G-box's, Diffs and brake upgrade. |

It's a modified BN SPORTS front bar, they've closed the indicator holes and added height to the intercooler opening. |

There's nothing wrong with a 20, they make the same power as a 25, just they don't have any low down torque, its the only benefit for a 25, the 26 was produced from the 20 base, it cant be that bad. A 20 in a s13 is a good combination, more cylinders = less effort to produce the same amount of 2ltr power as compared to an sr20. Though everybody will tell you to ditch the 20.. just cause its 2 ltrs.. It's in there already so stick with the 20. |

slowly getting it all prepped to paint, just wondering if anyone wants to show me what colour they think I should paint it-share some small photos if you like, I'm just not sure what colour to do it in. Part of the problem of being a painter is I have too many options and keep changing my mind! |
