Snowman's sr s13 build thread

[frost1988]

Well after owning my s13 coupe for about 3 years i crashed it and and it was sold for parts.Since i didnt have much time to remove all my parts i had to bust a mission on my old car before it was hauled away for good.I had to cut several wires to speed up the process of removing the engine.In the end this is all i had left of my old car.

When removed the engine was super dirty because i never cleaned the engine but it doesnt mean i didnt take care of it.I had rebuilt the motor a few thousand miles ago.So the engine was in great shape and running when i got in the crash.
After it had been out for a few days.I decided to clean and paint the engine before i droped it into its new home.

I used degreaser and simple green and went through a few wire brushes to get the block clean.But i was happy with the end result to decided to use engine enamel.

Build threads:
Almost everyone enjoys building their cars and sharing that experience, as well as checking out others' builds for inspiration. Sadly, far too many users have a tendency to do half-hearted builds and either rarely update or update with trivial progress. In the interest of keeping the Chat forum clear of three hundred 'Install SR, ziptie aero, rattlecan paint' threads, incomplete, or in-progress build threads are not allowed. If you have completed your build, wrangle all those pictures into a post and tell us about it, but make sure the build is finalized. If you insist on having an in-progress build, Premium members have a specialized subforum for that specific purpose.
