Here is my new 2010 S13 sr20 build.

Well, I got some extra time I will be spending at home, so I decided to get a new shell and start over. My old shell was great but there is things I want to do different on the new one. Here is some pictures of my start:

here we go

stitch welding

Ran out of gas so i started to prepping rest of the car

removed factory seat brackets

damn a lot more to go

driftaholic13 · 05-26-2010, 09:54 PM

Rear arches before and after

waiting for some gas so I can weld em.

driftaholic13 · 05-26-2010, 09:55 PM

GOT TUBS???

driftaholic13 · 05-26-2010, 09:56 PM

while the dimples arent something i care about as much as everyone else on here, i like the placement of the p/s reservoir! if you have time and a tig, it would be cool to see a custom reservoir (you could make it larger if it fit the space in that corner)
[/quote]

Changed the shape of that gusset so now the p/s reservoir will go right in there and yes custom one will be cool.

plus closed all the extra holes and some gussets on the frame rails to firewall

driftaholic13 · 05-26-2010, 09:57 PM

Ok on wed I prepped the engine bay and got the primer

driftaholic13 · 05-26-2010, 09:58 PM

Power brace

ready for paint

driftaholic13 · 05-26-2010, 09:59 PM

Ok so I have moved and had to deal with a lot of shit!!! After I got done setting up the garage I finally got some work done............

Thanks to DDS (Kyle) for couple of bends...

Action shoot

and here is my finished cage

New steering column brackets welded to the cage

driftaholic13 · 05-26-2010, 09:59 PM

So I got to do a lot of little shit............. thats why I haven't posted any pics for a while. Today I got overfenders and body kit pre-fitted now time to strip it all down and start with the painting.

D-max front fenders

D-max rear overfenders

Rims

driftaholic13 · 05-26-2010, 10:00 PM

Did some work today: welded aluminum air duck for my intercooler (also the air duck holds my front bumper) , made a front bash bar and mounted oil cooler.

The bumper hangs right on top of that lip

Bash bar

Oil cooler

My lil helper

driftaholic13 · 05-26-2010, 10:01 PM

Here is some shit I've done today: pre fitted my pop up's , they will always stay up I think it looks sick.... on a hatch :P and got my rear brace with a spot to jack up the car...... since the car will be super low and jack wont slide under my bumper ( my old car was like that I always had a hard time lifting it during tire changing and the kit was not as low as this one )

driftaholic13 · 05-26-2010, 10:02 PM

2 days ago I sanded the whole car and primered Engine bay, under the car inside and all the body parts....... waited a day and wet sanded the whole car again . Thanks to my Brother William for helping me....

Today I finally painted inside of the car its a very light Gray color

Outside will be next....

driftaholic13 · 05-26-2010, 10:03 PM

I was thinking of not posting pics till the car is finished but I couldn't keep it to myself...... The color I picked is 2010 porsche GT3 and it's pretty wild........ ;D I got all the body put together also finished putting all the lexan windows and also got mirrors put on and subframe and the solid bushings........subframe was a pain in the ass i was under the car for an hour and my neck was killing me but I got it on :'(

My mini mirrors

Thanks to Ray for hooking me up with the wheel....

cali_love · 05-26-2010, 10:04 PM

BN Replica but yes that style lol

slow40sx · 05-27-2010, 12:26 AM

to be honest i didn't even really care about the car it just looked like every other drift car build thread, and then i saw the color u painted it and now that shit is one of the dopest fucking 240's alive, I'd be interested in seeing what wheels you're going to go with, the 5zigens are just drift spares correct?
