I know that this is a mostly RWD forum but I figured I would put some pics up of the B13 that I am working on right now. In fact I do not own a RWD car at all...lol.

I also own a G20 and a 200sx SER that is getting a HUGE SR20VET build.

Anyways on to the pics.

When I picked it up.

On the trailer.









and cleaned up the engine harness except for the MAF plug which I need to re-solder.



Then started work on it.

Motor is out
PS is out
Charcoal canister gone
AC out
Degreased and pressure washed engine bay
Put Davids (PwrdByUncleBens) old hood on (reverse panda)

Then I picked up a set of 16" Konig Traffiks from Craigslist which I happened to stumble upon late one night while I was drunk. (BTW I love these wheels)
They are good looking and very light. Its just too bad they are not made any longer.

when I picked them up... curbed...dirty....scratched. Not very pretty.


One pic of one where I repaired the rash and blasted it mostly clean.


These wheels are going to get powdercoated candy teal much like these JLines.


So the wheels are getting coated finally next week. I decided to stick with candy teal just because I like the color and I could give a damn if others dont.

Here is a good pic of the engine bay that my boy took with his Nikon.

The engine bay pic is really impressive.

Thanks. Right now that is the best part of the car. I do try to take my time with things but as it is its hard to keep my mind on something when I have 2 projects going on at the same time.

The body is rough. In spots it looks like it was sanded with 40 grit paper then painted right over. Right now though I'm focusing on the drivability aspect of it IE suspension, chassis etc. I just replaced the tie rods and ball joints with moog parts and that in itself made a huge difference since I doubt they have been replaced since the car rolled off the line in 1992.

My suspension will be simple but effective on this car.
Progress/tein coils
progress rear sway
ES bushings
and a few other bits here and there.

Spring Break '92

Man, I love B13's. I had built one myself, and then sold it later. I had a JDM SR20DE with a Bluebird T25 setup. LOVED that car. The suspension was gen 2 Hyperco springs with AGX shocks.
