180sx kouki-ish style vq35hr swap
hey guys. been lurking this forum for a few years and finally decided to make a build thread.
started with an s13 given to me as a hand-me-down from my bro. don't really have too many early on pictures of it, but here it is about to be painted. http://i987.photobucket.com/albums/a...ps674146fc.jpg |
spent a lot of time working on the bumper and fender fitment, then eventually primered/painted it rustoleum white.

somewhere between the painting stages, i turbo'd the ka with the basic sr20 stuff. it was an awesome setup looking back at it. this was my favorite stage of the car so far. went back to stock fenders and polished the rota's also.
