1st car, Slowly but surely S13
 

So my dad and I bought this car back in late November early December. My first car and my first 240 bone stock except for q45 front calipers and drilled and slotted rotors in the front and it was on eibach springs this is how it looks not to bad and pretty clean :w00t:

very clean car. What are your plans with it? Please dont say drift car its to clean for that

im only 16 so the build will be slow but i have plans for a jdm look not RHD just type-x jdm look. I dont want it to be a drift car but i'd like to slide it everyone now and then just for fun.

I was a dumb teen and burnt my clutch drifting so into the garage she goes around janurary

After about 2 weekends of working on the car the clutch was replaced with just an exedy OEM spec clutch and was back out on the streets

Next on my list was to get suspension....but again I wasn't thinking and bought and origin kit for $300 beat up of course lol sold it after a couple months of just sitting in the garage cause I liked how clean the car looks stock. So in June I bought my car a brand new set of Stance Super Sport coilovers for $800 that still need to be put in and will soon.

I'm picking up the new wheels friday! after saving up since I got the coils pick up lots of shifts at work.....bye social life hello wheels :boink:

nice choice on the coilovers. What wheels you looking at getting

Thanks and Square G6 with tires 18x9.5 +12

those will fit the fronts just fine!!
not normally a fan of red S13's but I like yours. it looks like the previous owners weren't afraid of clay bars and keeping the paint in good shape

Up close the paint is scratched being the OEM red and being a 1990 car so it has hairline scratches but no peeling :)

Damn. That first picture in the first post is beautiful.

Gorgeous car. Looks so clean. For some reason I like the look of Sentra wheels on Pignose S13s.

Again, gorgeous. I'm looking forward to seeing what you do with this, so far it seems like you know what you're doing and you're buying good shit which is awesome. Subbed.

Wow! Nice score for a first car! Keep it clean and enjoy!

Simple but clean. Can't go wrong with stance coilovers either. I want to see how this thing turns out to be like.

Thanks for the feedback everyone! I'll have pictures up this weekend of the car on the new shoes and on the coils hopefully and this is a slow build I work a minimum wage job but try to as many hours in so you might want to sub ton the post to keep updated haha. Really appreciate the good feedback!

If you're 22 or 18, shame on you for having the spelling ability of a 2 year old child.

Needs a lip. Clean car though.

Clean car man. Prob what mine used to look like a long time ago haha

Good start not digging the wheels though

Why? I got a handful of people who say the same

Car looks good, especially for a 16 year olds first build.

I think the "complaint" you're getting on the wheels is that they are replica/knockoff/cheap wheels and not "baller" wheels. But if you like them thats all that matters. It's alot better then what most of us where driving/building when we were 16.

That's what I was thinking...oh well my next wheel set up will be work equips planning on a type-x conversion too but I have a minimum was job so it'll be a while
