Hello everyone I introduce to you my sr coupe
http://i1122.photobucket.com/albums/l526/max20s14/photo-1.jpg
The day i got it. i traded my old automatic s14 with Tein HR coilovers and xxr wheels for this about a year ago.
It came complete with a busted driveshaft, torn motor mounts, blown shocks, leaky sun roof,rusty stock radiator, caved in fender well, dull flaky paint, body rust, and complete with a worn s13 interior.
BUT, it came with this....and some shiny wheels...

Since owning the car i have replace almost all the ware items. The car was seriously neglected. Somehow the motor has ran strong for the time I have owned it. the poor motor was sitting on busted mounts, and when driving the drive shaft would flop around like a wet noodle. despite its neglect it came with a few brand name goodies like a Greddy FMIC, RC 550cc injectors, and a nice T28.

this is how it sits now. Begining the sanding and filling process. Ive replaced all the suspension arms with adjustible pieces, got some powered by max competition coilovers, aluminum driveshaft, learned how to work an SAFC(plan on replacing this after paint)
aluminium radiator, fixed the major problems with the body, aftermarket motor and trans mounts. replaced crappy fram oil filter with oem. de jankified some wires. found a silvia bumper support and headlight brackets as they where jankily installed before, had my CD player stolen out of it, and learned the importance of hood pins.
I am about to paint most of the car white hopefully this week at a friends garage who is set up for stuff as such. I am in need of a few things such as a silvia front bumper and i want an oem metal hood to replace the cracked carbon fiber one. I am a full time computer engineering student and a part time worker. This is my project and DD.
