Party Crasher S13 Ka Vert Rebuild from Michigan

New Member on here been lurking for a long time never took the time to join way behind on a build Log but here is my story.

A few years ago I picked up this mint vert and started a build on it. This is about the 10th 240 i have owned built and sold



Long story short I built it drifted it a few times got bored and decided to sell it to a buddy, when i sold it it looked like this



(Fast forward to now)


Well he had it for a few months, parked it on the side of his street and some lady in a jeep smashed into it, very sad day.
So he bought a new roller and transferred all the parts to the shell was going to scrap it so long story short I ended up with my car back for free, Like this!

I'm really behind on the updates so here is a lot!

Picked up a donor car for $500 with a blown motor, because my car is so clean and I already put tubs and cage in it i decided on keeping my shell.



Got it home



Then this happened



Loaded up heading to the body guy


Picked up some cheap overs and a Drift Armor bash bar to help align everything





He is doing a really good job







Its home!



Time to make some room






I tubed the front last year but with everything out i deiced to fill a few holes and respray it.





Picked up this used KA motor from a friend for $50 gonna take it down and refresh it






Plan on going KA-T eventually so i had a oil return put in wile the pan was off, im just gonna put a AN cap on it for now



All done ready to go in!




Its in



Picked up this Moroso switch panel gonna start getting this thing wired



Even got @Poormans180sx over here to help me get this thing wired up.
(Thanks again man!)




Picked up a pair of style 5's for cheap offset is junk but hey will work for now



They where pretty torn up so I painted them white



It runs!

Well it drove outside under its own power that's a start i guess. Took a few pics with my buddies car (I.E my old car kinda????)





Picked up this Silvia front cheap (not really sure how i feel about it)



Got it painted to match


My good buddy Owns ctsvbrakeswap.com and hooked me up with a Sponsorship and some free brackets. I also picked up a ASD hydro, CTS-V calipers,#50z track pack rotors and 300zx rear brakes all brand new.

This is what 1200$ in brake parts looks like!!




These things are awesome!!!!




Picked up a set of new lower control arms to box and extend





Got a temporary seat by Procar it's Mhhhh but it will work for now, along with some Racequip harnesses



ASD is in and working

How difficult was that quarter panel swap? I'm probably gonna end up having to do the same thing to my car.

Sorry for the lack of updates I bought a new house and that has occupied most of my time.

Finally got my car out of storage test fit my new wing and KBD side skirts.
I'm very happy with how this custom wing came out never done anything like this before.
I bought a random deck made custom low mount wing stands and bought some Battle Aero end plates tell me what you guys think!




Picked up this set of gulf stitch wheels for a super deal 18x10.5



Been working hard on getting my new garage remodeled, but I found some time to install my wheels final mount my wing and test fit my rear diffuser.

If you want honest opinions, I don't care for the wing at all.

Happy that 95% of the big wing trend died 3 years ago.

Not a fan of big wings but low mount is pretty cool imo. The wheels really help the wing fit. Looks like a do luck jzx wing which I wanted to throw on my coupe. Glad to see it looks really good!
