LowLevel S13 240SX Build
Hi guys,
My name is Cimon, and I'm from Montreal, Quebec. I'm French, so don't worry if sometimes I make some little mistakes in the text ![]() Here's my IG: @cimonbrouillette Pretty excited to finally get in the S-Chassis family. On January 4th, I've bought my S13 as my new build for '15 season. Hard to find some clean ones up here in Canada, not rusted & beaten as hell. Good thing I've jumped on a deal, low mileage & very great condition '89 240SX HB. ![]() That's how I've started this crazy journey. You'll love this thread, as I always take HD pictures during the build. ![]() First week. First Zilvia night searches & PayPal abuses. Found my 180SX Kouki Front End & Chuki Sideskirts. Kinda rough condition but worth the work for the price I've paid them. ![]() First buildup selfie. I've dreamed for years to do a S13. Finally. ![]() Always loved the way Kouki front bumpers looked with the license plate nicely cutted. ![]() ![]() Finally got them ready for paint. Everything got primed to make place and work on the car! Looks so clean! Pretty excited ![]() ![]() 2 days later, I've received another delivery. An exciting one: Suspension & arms. Hell yes! ![]() ![]() Made a bit of room in the front, relocated harness in case too. ![]() And that's how it temporarily sits on the new wheel set, straight from VR Wheels. Incredible customer service, fast answers & shipping! Awesome. ![]() As I want to make this build in the classic mood, I'll keep the front OE fenders & mod them to fit these. 50mm OverFenders for the rear are sitting patiently in the basement. |

Like I promised, here are some pics of today's test fit w/ tires. So happy!
![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() No adjustment have been done at all, so I'm very impressed. Fitment will be really on-point with some minor fender work in the front, and in the rear w/ over fenders i'll probably need some 15-20mm spacers to get the exact same fitment all around. Hopefully the PBM coilovers w/ stock springs (10k/8k) will be stiff enough. If not, I'll consider buying some Swift springs probably. To be continued! |
