Hey guys, Im posting my bestfriends ride as hes not much of a forum buff so heres what he said:
"Its started out in 2008 as a basic S13 hatch with rattle can paint, silk road coils, and Enkie wheels:

Took off the stars, and painted a rising sun on the hood back when all us (he has a RHD 510 KA wagon too, more on that later) 510 guys were doing it:

I then decided to paint it a gray and black two tone in the snow:

I decided more power was needed at this point, so I ripped the KA out in plans to buy a RB25DET later that week:

The RB was a Neo that was AWD pan, cut harness and no ECU. Since I was already at Foreign Engines I decided to browse other options. They had this (JZA70) Supra clip with a JZ sitting near and I decided to pull the trigger hardly knowing what a JZ was.

I got it home and yanked the motor out, got a front sump oil pan off Craigslist, and ordered a duffle bag :cj: full of replacement parts off of Driftmotion. I decided to go with an Ebay mount kit (No longer produced) knowing that if we had issues my buddy could fab some new ones up. They ended up working with OEM rubber, luckily. Took about a year working off of a Jiffy Lube budget to get it in.

After that I took the car to Drift Office to finish the wiring, and we ended up going with an EMS 6860 ECU with plug-n-play harness. Bob tuned it and made 290HP/ 289TQ. Added some new aero at this point.

I decided to actually do a decent paint job this time.

After some wet sanding, buffing, roof wing, Honda Integra wing, Grids, XD9s and rare Do-Luck valences it turned out like this

Now that I had power and bodywork it was time for a little suspension work
