lol I mean I already know what it looks like towards the end but I want to see the progress and stages that its gone threw!.
I want to see you build that front lip as well. or you can just give it to me =p
Also another thing , just because some others don't respond doesn't mean quit the build thread. same way we built are cars
at first most people didn't have faith in what we were doing
but look at us now! do it for yourself .
so don't get discouraged dude!
keep it going!

That thing on your hand was cool.

Looks good so far. I'd definitely say you're headed in the right direction.

just showing some quick progress pictures of stages the car has been through...
i wanna say that 350z wheels are dum heavy and the car felt like crap with them. lol


another thing is the god speed x bar i most deff noticed a difference in the rear body roll, the quality is not bad either. i think its way better that paying book bucks for a miracle bar if you can find one..

also i found out that my buddy upgraded the front and rear sway bar already so i won't have any need to do that.. well now i do.. i hit a big bump in the road and it bent my front one back and dented my oil pan a lil while back.. it has deff taken a beating over the last couple of months and host likely saved my oil pan.

for a long time I vowed to stay pig nose. but then I got bit by the type x bug.. seeing these front ends on INSTAGRAM made me want to change up things a bit.. I saw this bumper for sale from Thailand being sold by a dude on here (I don't remember his name)





when I received the bumper it was super clean got everthing I needed to attach it to my s13. lights were pretty mint and everything lined up

and then the wiring. yes I know my wiring looks crappy.. but everything was electric tape wrapped then water proof silicone wrapped



I had issues with the top marker lights since the bulb size was different and the plugs for the type x kit was 2 wires, where as the plugs for the piggy nose was 3 wires. so I had to figure out how I was gonna make that work..



I ran no top side marker lights for a little while because I wanted to have my light functioning not just in there..

.

I also ordered a type x front lip to make the car look lower... and the accent the type x bumper.. I must say the lip from driven86 ( i tink that's his name) is very good quality, and fits perfectly... no gaps or slack... nicke snug fitment..

took off the lower lights to figure out wiring since i wanted to run both lights at the same time, and i realized to run the top lights a side markers and blinkers i cut the ground wire. i then wired the bottom lights to the left and right side marker lights.

started collecting more parts and more parts... lol... decided i wanted to get a roll cage, i also figured i might as well upgrade my brakes while I'm at it... i ended up buying a set of rebuilt brakes from a guy on here but they both ended up leaking on me... he kept his word though and refunded me my money!! cool dude thanks... i ended up goint to oriellys and picking up a set of calipers. i also upgraded my hubs to s14 and the same for my spindles.
