Ok so ive been lurking this forum for years but never really post, didnt even register till 2years ago when i got this car, decided to finally make a build thread. ive been building cars and drift cars for awile, this is the 1st i finished for myself, (was stuck in Honda Drag Racing) over that lol,
ill start with a few before and after pics

How i got it 2 years ago, bare, bare shell, always liked the look of s14, im a coupe guy

picked up a rb25 swap that was out a wrecked s14 in MS, looked to be well taken care of from the post online, it was clean when i took covers off at home, low mileage motor for sure
