i like the look of the flares on these cars.  makes me want to do something like this with my car, not really sure yet though

heres from yesterday

my friends volvo electric fan broke so his car overheated and he had to call it quits early.

then i did one run with him in the car and crashed sideways into a curb going about 10mph or so.

surprised my hub/other rear suspension components didnt break.

went to the yard today and got another wheel and drifted tonight some more.

popped my tire and left the car at burger king

updates

its beeen a while
i ended up selling the rebuilt l28 bottom end, headers, and some of the other parts.  Ill sell the rest soon
reason being is that it would have required too much reworking of the suspension to make it fit.  and it would have been terrible to drift which is what I want to do with it.  not much has been sone with the s13, just painting and cleaning parts and putting the engine bay back together.  mostly all the front suspention is in and the brakes and everything. ill put some pictures up when im back from tahoe.

other than that, the sc300 has been great. driving it all the time. I now have a bucket seat in it.  feels better for drifting in.  i cut the springs, i know, not the right way to do it, but its until I get coilovers.  I got wheels, 4 more bbs's so not I have 6 which I will use to make 4 wheels and sell the remaining parts.

some stuff copied from build thread

so now i have the option of flaring/ widebody the lexus and going with the negative offset option of the wheels or running stock body and rolled fenders and running the positive 12j in the back and the very positive 9j in the front (maybe with a bit of spacers) heres what the 12j with negative offset looked like. to give you an idea, with the stock rear fenders, there was more than 5" from the outside of the fenders to the end of the wheel lip. with about -1 or 2 degrees negative camber

therefore more camber and flares of some sort and stretch should work alright.  and i forgot to mention, the wheels were already drilled to 5x114 which is sweet

these are the ones with the larger lip size 8j +11 i think

 and these are 8j +40, same as the two I have on my car already

I will be selling all of my 1.5" lips (i think thats what they are)

for now im thinking of running the + offset option and keeping stock but rolled fenders and seeing what it is like

thats it for now, more to come soon,
thanks for viewing

updates

I havent posted in a while
I have been working on a 1993 nissan 240sx s13
Its a popular car, but I am doing mine a bit differently
old school styling with a carbed l28 and 15's (soon to come)

sc300 will also have somewhat old school styling with old mesh bbs'  

today's work

first, I worked on varun's sisters civic with him.  we took the fromt left knuckle and hub off.  we then changed the ball joint.  we also were plannin on changing the wheel bearing, because it needed to be changed bad, but we couldnt get it out.  hes soaking it with oil tonight and well try again tomorrow

then we started the engine removal from my car

drained what was left of the oil from the porsche.  seems like it only spilled a couple quarts (most of what was in the dry sump tank)

and then I disconnected all the oil lines

some of the stuff from the track day

started pulling apart wire connectors, did all but the reverse light wiring and the starter motor wiring

we also did all the fuel system and the vacuum 

all we have left is the rest of the wiring and then drop the motor and trans together

current state of the civic

before the track day

couple shots from the hotel room in willows.  it was a 10 min drive from the track, drive right over the highway and down the road to thunder hill

fun day over all

took the car to the track today.  while my dad was driving, he blew the motor.  havent made up my mind yet about what im going to do with that car
