That things sick
Thanks everyone! I love building these things.
I'll start a build once I get some mods in! As far as the FC goes, I got a great deal on some Cusco Zero-1 coilovers. Also waiting for a wheel to be released then I'll be buying some for the FC.
Alright, well I finished the nitro for now. Next I'm gonna fab up a little straight pipe exhaust out the back haha. Little things that keep me busy when I can't work on the real deal...lol
Lines are a little rough, but I suppose it's not bad for my first body

I think it looks rad!
Great job
Thanks guys! It's a blast to mess around with lol.
Well here's the few small updates I have. Went on a road trip to Utah to find some In n Out with the lady friend, it was a blast. Saw literally no modded car in Salt Lake other than a Subaru...kinda sucked.
Got my digital cluster in and my Bride bolted down properly.
Z32 calipers painted to match my VC
New rotors fitted and dust shield removed
S13 non-hicas rear subframe aquired. Can finally get rid of this 4WS
Got my block completely disassembled and sent off to the machine shop to get honed, cleaned, decked, and the crank polished etc.
Also found this on the motor, not sure how I didn't notice it earlier lol.
Got some new wheels for the FC, but waiting for coils still so I'll rock them on the 180 till then
My buddy got an S14, so we welcomed it to the family by letting it stay in the garage with our other beauties
Aaaand 1 insta-derp for good luck

Nah, drove up through Wyoming so we didn't hit all the crazy snow in the mountains haha. This summer when I get the car running I'll be going on another trip and I'll be hitting you up!
Well, here's all the stuff I'm waiting to come in:
Freshly machined SR block
Polished crank
OEM Nissan full gasket set
Stainless turbo elbow
Coilpack harness
OEM oil dipstick
OEM oil dipstick tube
OEM timing chain guides and bolts
215/40 tires
S14 SR20 oil pickup
Once all this comes in, the SR will be built and ready for action!

We checked every bit of weather reports we could, through the mountains was going to be terrible. We only hit 1 minor storm on the way back, other than that it was bright and sunny all the way through
And word man, I'll be up in Denver for their summer meets hopefully once the car is running, so I may see you sometime haha
