Picked up a clean 24O build
 

Hey Zilvia! Pretty new to posting in this forum so hopefully I dont get bashed on lol, anyways my name is Algin im 17, grew up around cars since like forever haha especially being around my cousins, this was during the early 2OOO'S when hondas were like really popular (They still are) haha. I still have interest in hondas, its just that to me, I feel like they are to common and the area where I live, the possibilites of it being stolen are very high( where arent they now a days). Well I picked up into 24O's around the time I was going into middle school, I was introduced into drifting and all of that, but to me it wasn't the drifting. It was more of the styling that was different compared to hondas. But yea that kind of a summary of my story lol. Well with the money I saved up i decided it was time for me to pick up a 24O, ended up finding a clean s13 forsale. Hit up the guy and decided to check it out. Car was clean and ended up taking it home!

Looking over the car as it was finally home, the car seemed to have a oil leak, while checking over other places, I found that the was coming from under the crankshaft pulley, I was pretty sure it was the front main seal. A trip to the dealer was no biggie picking up the seal along with the other stuff that needed to be replaced!

As I got to save a little bit more money, I picked up some DMAX coilovers from GTR-GARAGE! At first i was kind of skeptical ordering from japan cause I never had any experience ordering from Japan. Kunio and his staff are great! They awnsered all my questions and at the end of the day they were great! Took about 1 month for my coils to get to my doorstep ( while on backorder), I recommend GTR Garage 100% percent!

nice start, I've only had one 240sx. It was a 93 Hatch (sold it tho), and my daily is also a 4runner. Awesome, can't wait to see more done. very clean coupe.

Thanks! lol its very convient to have a daily because usually, there is always something being done to this car

Great start man, clean coupe. How do you like the coils?

that notchback looks to be in very good condition.

enjoy the ride

thanks man! The coilovers are actually great, But for my personal preference I put the dampening all the way on stiff

thanks! just getting started lol

You're definitely doing shit right. Keep it up.

thanks man! really trying my best to make progress here

damn that thing's clean!
I wanted qwerth's grenades for my s14 for a long time haha.
I see he's still rocking a pair?
Did you grab a full set?

haha I think as of right now he rocking a pair in the front like in my picture, and i only picked up a pair of the 17's

Damn bro you're like my neighbor lol. Congrats on such a clean pick up. That thing is cherry, once I get my two tone up and running I'll PM qwerth so we can hit up some meets. I sold him a lot of parts from my old S14.

thanks man lol but yea just let him know, im very good friends with him and his brother so im usually somewhat with them most of the time haha. Would be nice to meet cool people from this forum and check out their car in person haha. If you have like a ig, you can just follow me too lol @alginmutia

Thank you for renewing my faith in the next car generation.

Wow Clean S13 . Please dont follow the crowd and destroy it with widebodys and big wangs . do a sil front get some nice wheels and call it a day with appearance

Also as others said, silvia front on a white car is sex.

so while driving the car around while i was enjoying it my car temperature's were rising. At first i thought it was nothing but when i was coming home, the car was just too hot to even drive. i had to call up some of my buddies to help me. so what we did was like every 2 blocks, we would stop for my car to cool down. In the end my car made it home. This all reminded me of that scene in fast and the furious shen dom open'd the hood of brians car and smoke came out cause thats exactly what was happening to my car lol smoke. but yea problem after problem ): back to the drawing bored


Me thinking about what the fuck is wrong lmao
