LowLevel S13 240SX Build

[Bushido]

nice photography skills

[TurboTiger]

Love the photos. Looks like a great build so far!

Everything looks great, glad to see that you are having fun.

I suggest some sort of mask or filtration for when you are sanding and painting. Stuff is no good for your lungs.

I'm not sure why you want to run such stiff spring rates.

I went from 12k/10k fortune auto with swift springs, to 8k/6k GPSports with swift springs. Tucking rim on 17's with both setups, the 8k/6k rides way better, and doesn't bounce on bumps, thus making the low ride height even easier to drive with because it stays even with the ground instead of being so stiff and bouncy on the tires.

Your build & pictures look amazing! I can't wait to see your progress.

Quick update!
Some more parts primed. We're almost there! Should get off to paint in 15-20days! So excited!



Finalizing front fenders. Still a bit of work to do and widen them a bit.



Type-X Wing hole drilling. That's so awesome to bring out some parts you've almost forgot you had. Been a while all the parts have been prepped & primed ready to shoot.



One little selfie doing the putty on the inside of the hood. My friend who makes all the bodywork shows me things every single time. Feels so good to learn, and applicate techniques. We all have our forces, and sharing them is the most wonderful thing we could do.

You make me want to use my camera more.. I'm lazy and usually end up taking cell phone pics. Haha. Love build threads like this. Thumbs up!

[lilcim]

Front fenders are almost ready! Was a dope day.
Widened & Personal custom touch.









We've also cut the inside lip of the fender & hammered it plate-to-plate to maximize clearance.



Here's the personal touch. I've always loved the S2K's J'S Racing fenders look. Like I've written before, my plans were to do a custom touch, without affecting the classic look.



Here's a little sneak peek from the side. I've always installed quickly the Chuki sideskirts.




Total car & parts should be primed for next weekend. Things are getting along!

Every time this build gets updated, I get more excited about the final outcome.

[Gr1mey_Norm]

[JZ78]

Love what you did with your fenders!

sent from my mind

[JRex]

Great idea on the fenders. Now if we could get someone to manufacture and sell sets.

[lgsr20swap]

Great build thread. Love the pics. I also did the truck liner inside car and loved it. Great idea on fenders. Might have to bite ur style. Keep up the food work and Def going to keep my eye on this one. Really make me want to go in my garage lock the door (so wife can't get in) and go to town!!!!!

[Big Zee]

I really like that last pic, it reminds me of the widened FD's front fenders. it's inspiring me to get rid of my FRP fenders and widen out my oem fenders and have them shaped to that flare.

great progress! kinda jealous your woman is helping you, all mine does now is get mad im spending more money on my car haha

[lilcim]

Haha thanks everybody for the kinds words!

Here's another update.

Putty on the fender work is done & ready to prime.





And glasses are removed, ready to prime the top & quarters. Getting close to complete respray!

[lilcim]

Finally received my BNIB Type-X Turn Signals. Looks so good! Can't wait to assemble everything together!

[SlpAngl]

God damn. I've wanted to do that same thing to my fenders since before I got my hatch but you did it so much better than I ever would've lol. Looks badass

[lilcim]

Massive update!
My boy @JayLecours finished priming everything. It's so motivating! Having the car finally one color is amazing!

[chank]

Nice work on the front fenders. i did the same to my Z with the same "OMG" outcome. I'll def be watching your build.
