ixfxi · 04-02-2012, 08:23 AM

this isnt the build from the mitten state?

jokes aside, this car was sold, wasnt it?

Hoffman5982 · 04-02-2012, 09:58 AM

Jokes aside, that's probably WHY he sold it...

kuruptR · 04-02-2012, 03:49 PM

i still own it, it lives in canada.

Got an oem version, ended up smashing my G-grow on a rail road track. Then put a vanquish lip on it

Where does one go from here? I feel that it is at its at its climax. Time to TEAR IT DOWN and start again.

Super Ertoy · 04-02-2012, 06:38 PM

Yes indeed. Just found this today. May 2012 issue of Import tuner. Jeevs.

Riq · 04-02-2012, 07:06 PM

If you ever sell this car I will fly to Canada myself, camp out on your front lawn and give you the Evil Eye every morning before you go to work... That is all...

tricky_ab · 04-02-2012, 09:13 PM

After watching that video again, I've already decided that I'm not completing any type of work at my job tomorrow. I'm just going to start from the beginning of this thread and go through it again (oh and buy crap off of Amazon)...

He's the guy who started slightly after you, but finished before broadfield, damon, mondo, and whomever else owns a dope ass s13 that is just driven and not tracked. "SACRILEGIOUS"

Love it!

hes also the guy i got the bumper cutout idea for, except he didnt put an oil cooler there

i liked his car a lot when it was red, looked great. now it looks more plain, but i still like it... i just keep confusing it with damons car... they look like wonder twins

georgegto · 04-03-2012, 01:58 PM

Did gias cost as much as 2day back in 2007?

Om1kron · 04-03-2012, 05:11 PM

your oil cooler costs more than a blitz intercooler kit mike. lol

b20tuner · 04-06-2012, 01:36 AM

iKoukiMonsta · 08-24-2012, 09:25 PM

This 240 is inspiring.

EvilRB · 08-25-2012, 05:57 AM

Nice to see the car again, I remember looking at this years ago and being inspired!
Keep at it man!

cheekanuble · 08-18-2013, 06:40 PM

What kind of cage is that? I know it's been asked but I looked through 20 pages and couldn't find it. Thanks a lot

shinhed · 08-19-2013, 02:35 AM

I don't think it's listed in this thread, but it's a Safety 21.

Barely found your build thread but just wondering a rough estimate how much did it cost to paint it not including bodywork

RPS13-604 · 07-07-2014, 03:21 PM

^ If i remember correctly when he had a cd for sale on the car it was almost 10,000 but that was including body work so im guessing around 5-6kish cause i paid roughly 6k for my paint job including paint inside the car and door jams etc

kuruptR · 11-27-2014, 09:23 PM

I will update my build thread, just to confuse Zilvians and get some attention off that darned mitton state thread.

Ill keep talking to a minimal and dump some photos which i forgot to post in this thread.

Here we go:
Got bored of my car, so I figure I switch it up and try some wheels. I custom built this set from a narrower set, got new inners and outers. The rear was a 10.5". Which would have fit but I ended up changing and selling my rear upper control arm from a old peak performance unit to a part shop max unit. Now I cant dial in that savage camber i wanted, and these wheels went waste because they would no fit.

Beautiful. Should have switched up the outers to a small lip, but i had sunk in too much money already.

When those wheels were sold, i settled. Settled on these wedsports:

And honestly, i felt they took the car down a notch. I stopped driving the car, I just didnt like the look and it just ate at me till i sold them too.

And this is where the car sits today:

No its not sold, its not for sale, and I have sold most of the JDM junk and interior is full gone. I have all the running gear and performance parts. I have decided to give the car new life (it used to sit and not get driven) its gone sit, a long time, till i get around to working on it. The new build will take the car in a different direction. I guess stay tuned, for my non-frequent posts.
