SO The S13 is going bye bye, and I'm getting back in the game
Yeah, it has been 2 years, the S13 was a loyal car, after so many motor swaps, track events, and fun. It's time to let her go. Drifter Boi scene is just blah. So I'm letting her go. Pretty soon (within the next few weeks) someone is picking her up for 6K. so I'm on the Market for a nice Z32. I'm looking into getting a 91-93 N/A. Z's are a hell of allot more expensive. so I plan to Just make it look dead sexy first. (and Reliable of course) plans are (no matter what year and Mlage) that will run me abt 1K at most.
60K mile timing belt kit is around 400$
Fuel Filter 12$
NGK Plugs 3$ a piece (yes i have a connect) 18$
Oil Filter is 5$
Coolant flush and clean is about 30$ (I always add Water Wetter)
Tranny fluid 30$(2.5Q)
Gear oil 10$ (1.5Q)
Test Pipes abt 150$
Apexi Intake 65$
ok so that's 720$ but then there is tax and shipping... whatever
might have to fix a thing or 2 who knows.
what do you guys think?
for looks the plan is pretty simple but I think it will be very effective
99Jspec Front Facia
Volk LE-37 19X8.5 +12 and 19X9.5+22
JDM Wing
JDM Tail Lights
KYB AGX + Ground Control Coilover kit
SPL RUCA's
SPL FUCA
350Z Front Brembo
STi Rear Brembo Caliper
those are the plans as of right now. Later on after I got the car up to Par where I want it. get a Front Clip and Swap the *****.

you didnt list any catback section, just test pipes....
also yeha the drifter seen is dying fast i think and with my car finally running great i can finally make her purdy, and maybe sell her for a TT.
btw how much are you selling the S13 for anyways?

Reason I didn't list a catback is because I wanna Wait for the Twin Turbo Swap (N/A is too loud and dosent sound cool)
the S13 Sold for 6K
