suggestion ? swap the trunk lock out with a silvia one. it would complete the back end.

completely cosmetic though. looks great!

The weird thing is, the majority of his exhaust goes out the left side tip. I have the same exhaust and the majority of mine goes out the right side tip. Wonder why.

Thanks for all the good words everyone, definitely inspiring me to up the game for 2012, Hopefully soon I can tear back into it. The two-tone coupe is almost finished

2 - unscrew that line
3 - run a stainless steel line from one of the hydro ebrake fitting to the master cylinder where you unscrewed the rear brake line from
4 - then run another stainless line from the other fitting of the hydro to the line that your removed from the brake master?

Hope that made sense.
That makes more sense than how I ran mine. All I did was run hardlines and T into them in the middle under the car. Going to be running a dual caliper setup next year though. Hope to see you out at MDU

So u put a T in the middle of the hard line that runs to ur rear? Did do anything with the rear break line from the master? Where did u run the two fittings from the hydro?

EDIT- NVM i figured it out

Running the 18x10.5 +15 with a 20mm spacer so its -5 effectively and i run around -5 degrees of camber. I have a lot of rubbing issues at full lock. Im dropping the wheel size down to a 17x10. with wheel tubs for next year.

Well, it's about time to start updating this thread for actual build stuff for 2012.

I sold my WRX and finished my two-tone s13, so now its time to pour money into this car.

Ordering about 5 grand worth of junk tomorrow, going to pick up the new trans this weekend.

But this may have just happened also... Tube front to come.

^^ what he said, and I'm going with a LS/T56 setup.

The motor is currently getting built at a buddy of mines shop. So it should be all shiny clean new looking when I toss it in

It should be done in about 2 weeks, Going with Sikky yes. It'll be the beginning of March when it goes in, Lots of chassis fab ahead of the motor drop.

Can't believe I haven't seen it then! You must live on the opposite side of Dayton or something. I'm downtown daily and have yet to see but a very small amount of 240's around here, and definitely no modded ones.

I had works 9 on my old zenki for a minute, till i broke it all haha. Man I got these mirrors off a buddy of mine who bought them way back when on ebay when they didn't look all crazy angled and have the silly turn markers in them. So I have no idea how to point you in the right direction I wish I could man.
