Party Crasher S13 Ka Vert Rebuild from Michigan

[PartyCrashers]

New Member on here been lurking for a long time never took the time to join way behind on a build Log but here is my story.

A few years ago I picked up this mint vert and started a build on it. This is about the 10th 240 i have owned built and sold

Long story short I built it drifted it a few times got bored and decided to sell it to a buddy, when i sold it it looked like this

(Fast forward to now)

Well he had it for a few months, parked it on the side of his street and some lady in a jeep smashed into it, very sad day.
So he bought a new roller and transferred all the parts to the shell was going to scrap it so long story short I ended up with my car back for free, Like this!

I'm really behind on the updates so here is a lot!

Picked up a donor car for $500 with a blown motor, because my car is so clean and I already put tubs and cage in it i decided on keeping my shell.

Looks good, inspiring me to stop being lazy and work on my Vert.

How difficult was that quarter panel swap? I'm probably gonna end up having to do the same thing to my car.

[PartyCrashers]

I bought a donor car cut that up gave it to a guy i know that does frame and body work

Looks good man keep it up.

[RalliartRsX]

Heard your buddy was parting that RB/S13 you were building??

[PartyCrashers]

Sorry for the lack of updates I bought a new house and that has occupied most of my time.

Finally got my car out of storage test fit my new wing and KBD side skirts.
I'm very happy with how this custom wing came out never done anything like this before.
I bought a random deck made custom low mount wing stands and bought some Battle Aero end plates tell me what you guys think!

If you want honest opinions, I don't care for the wing at all.

Happy that 95% of the big wing trend died 3 years ago.

[kneeecoo]

Not a fan of big wings but low mount is pretty cool imo. The wheels really help the wing fit. Looks like a do luck jzx wing which I wanted to throw on my coupe. Glad to see it looks really good!https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180419/2fdbadc6006314bf4bd25da4587ce819.jpg
