So I got this car in a trade plus cash for my 350z.

Basic info on the car when I got it
Blacktop s13 sr ,wiring specialties
Stance gr + coils
Solid subframe and diff bushings
Pbm ruca's and toe arms
Aftermarket sway bars
Solid motor and trans mounts
1 piece driveshaft
Greedy fmic
Megan turbo manifold
Spec stage 3 clutch
ISIS blast pipe exhaust
Aem tru boost, and oil temp Guages

I took it to an event ended up rod knocking the motor.
Since then I've been working deal after deal.
Ended up getting a built redtop cp pistons,eagle rods, bc 264's and springs. The bad thing is the block was damaged but the pistons weren't hurt. So we're going to put everything in the rodknocked block after a trip to the machine shop

The motor came with a Trans spec stage 4 clutch and flywheel cx racing top mount t3 / t4 turbo manifold, wiring specialities s13 sr into s14 chassis harness, greedy knock off intake and oil pan.

A friend of mine wrecked his caged hatch and got a new caged shell to swap his drive train into he cut the car up and sold me the cage pretty cheap since I'm helping him get his 1j s13 coupe running

Cost breakdown
Built sr and extra parts $700
Cage $300

Parts sold
Spec clutch and flywheel $ 600
Codyace ac, ps ,and alt. Brackets $155

Total out of pocket into the build atm $245.
