I picked this car up a few months ago...just never got around to making a build thread.
Heres the thing. I got sick of not having another 240 to work on.
So I jumped on the chance at a cheap S13 coupe the second I heard the price.
Don't worry about how much....it'll make you jelious.
Just know that the price i paid wouldn't have been enough for a single S13 headlight.
I didn't say front end....just 1.:heyhey
It had some issues but made it home eventually
1990 sohc
5spd
RUNNING <-important
HUD dash with nonworking analog sohc cluster not working
S13 front end <-crappy fiberglass but, eh...
title read 110k miles reported last year.
What I plan to do;
Fix interior
Rewire a chit load of crap
Make use of the beat body
$50 paint job
Get her running perfect
keep in mind...it needs to be a dd. So power is not my goal with this one. It'll be a suspension whore. A verycheap suspension whore.
I didn't take a cam with me when I bought it and missed on some better pics of the process on the first day.
The car had/has no PS, AC, wing (but holes), intake filter, washer fluid tank, lights, shifter (kinda), speed cluster or any freak'n gas.
Yes I said shifter....On the way home while on the pass comming to Sacramento from Reno, the stick came out....yes.....it came out while driving.
The previous driver hadn't bolted it down...
Then, when i pulled up to my driveway the waterpump went out.
yay so far....:dancingwt
kk enough...here are some pics.
The cam I used sucked ass

![Image]()
He used self tappers & cared not for his wing...
