My S13 coupe project

[GregFarz78]

She's a hurt piece right now lol First step is to clean it all out and see what I'm working with, good news is haven't seen any real rust yet (some minor surface rust) which isnt bad for a 20 year old car The interior is a mess I know, he basically put all the parts he had inside the car so I need to clean it out now.

S13 silvia front end (3 beam projector headlights not seen here)


VQ35 engine + 6 spd trans


Interior


Trunk w/spare 6 spd trans and misc parts


I got my work cut out for me but it should be fun, and I'll take many pics along the way.

Hell yeah VQ power. looks like you got alot of work ahead of you. good luck. what color you plan on painting it? wheels, suspension?

[GregFarz78]

I'm leaning towards white, I'm probably gonig to paint it myself with the help of a someone that has painted many cars in the past. It won't be a show car so I see no need to spend 3k+ on a pro paint job

Wheels no clue yet but it came with brand new eibach coil overs...those wheels in your sig look pretty nice what are they?

[Catch240]

Let me know if you need another hand with anything, im all over the philly area. I applied to late for internships, so this summer is nothing but a big waste of time.
White = Classy
nice start, sir
do you have double,triples projectors or bricks?

[GregFarz78]

The triple projectors and its actually silver/primer right now but I do plan on painting it white probably a rustoleum special paint job I don't want to dump a ton of money into paint then get pissed off everytime some a-hole opens a door into my car which always seems to happen to me.

So I started ripping into her this past week got the trunk cleaned out and prepped for prime/paint this week...

Trunk was a mess needed to clean all the parts out of it first, removed tail lights, removed bumper and support


Some surface rust and nasty tar sound deadener that had to go, what a pain in the ass took about 2 hours with a hammer and putty knife (yes I already know about dry ice I was too lazy to drive and get some but I definitely will for the inside of the car)



The aftermath, the stuff on the wheel wells was harder to get off so I'm leaving it on you won't see it anyway


All cleaned up ready for primer & paint

more to come in a few days
