Just another S13
Hey peeps
Bought myself a s13 non runner about 2 months ago... Bottom end is poked so selling most of the CA18 goods off and aiming for a SR20. Chassis is straight, interior is in good condition.
Im currently stuck in the engine bay, need to still source a SR20DET and box to fit in.
How she was collected
And what was found in the motor
I started in the engine bay first as it had several scratches and brackets, holes that I wanted to change..
What I have done till now is strip, prep and paint.
Some MS Primer
First and second coat of 2k
More to follow

Thanks Peeps
@Tony, She is going to be a all-rounder toy... Not a daily so aiming for a 3071R and around 350-400whp should suffice .
I have put a little bit of time into my gauge pod which just needs a coat of paint now. My Motor,box and management are on their way too
Pics for kicks
Thats it for now, will continue working on her when the rest of the good arrive.

Some Updates
Busy with oil filter relocation, mounted my new intercooler and oil cooler too.
Will try do the lines this week
Need to trim the front crash bar still and mod the front bumper for better flow over the cooler, then Ill do some ducting for the oil cooler too.

Re: Just another S13
Looking good.
Just a suggestion, if you do not have a thermostat for the oil cooler, get one. When I hade the vg in my sx I had basically the same size cooler in the same location and oil temp was fine till I drove in the rain the one time, oil temp dropped to 35 degrees.

I will definitely look into that and see what my oil temps do..
