Sold the EK. Got this. It needs some stuff. But it runs (when it doesn't flood) and it handles great. Has sentimental value.

Project goals:
Fix flood issue (fuel pump cut off switch coming soon) or replace motor (extra one came with sale)
Coilovers, lower considerably large amount
Install my Sparco thats collecting dust in my room
17x8s or 17x9s ...
Later down the road (IE: 4-5 months maybe more) 4 point rollbar in theback

Until then... Drive. Errrday. Im going to focus on Grip with this one. It already has some basic stuff.

It has:
Racing beat springs w/ replacemeny gr2's
RB sway bars with poly swaybar bushings
OBX LSD
Failure 17x7s... For now.
Header + Exhaust
Manual Rack

I love it. Fuckin' Love it.

Note the master lockout kit on the roof. Had it for an hour and locked the keys in it

Yeah it's been around... I lived with Chris (previous owner) for a while and have known him for some time now. He left for Basic Training yesterday, delivered the car Tuesday.
I couldn't let it go to just anybody. And conveniently I just sold my Civic leaving me debt free and needing a car... Good timing?

Good deal. You forgot to answer the question though. It's waiting for you.

I know... FC takes meh monies!

Got rid of the 17's, so threw some 15" meshies on it to roll around on.. I think they will be ok when i get it sitting lower, at least for a few months until i can afford ballin' rims.

Ok... So i Almost bought coilovers for the FC this past week... Instead i bought a daily diver. Friends little brother crashed his s13 (again) and decided to sell it and start fresh with a shell.... So i gave him a small amount of cash and the 17s off my Rx7 for his next ride...
Grabbed a Come-along and pulled the core support/framerail straight enough to bolt a headlight motor and fender on it (for now). Got a headlight assembly and a radiator in the junkyard and made it all work... Still need a fender and i have to put the bumper on... Coilovers don't belong to me but im buying some used ones hopefully this weekend..

But after that its done. Got to focus on the Rotary Drift Race Car!

ugh.... Been porting the intakes on the FC.... Going back this week/next week. Should be back together and running good in a week or two. No more smog b/s and no unnecessary vacuum lines will be there. Header back apex-i exhaust going on that i got from a friend for a measly $100 bucks.
Its gettin' there... Slowly but surely.

That s13 has seen better days!

LoL Sad but True. It will be better. When i get the Rx7 motor back together, i think im going to drive it for a short while and cut that framerail and core support out and have straight ones put back on. For now, its just a bomber. It runs awesome and its nice on the inside. Single cam Slammin'.
