I have just bought a S13 to fix up,I have a spare CA motor lying around so we will drop that in to get the car running with a few extras like FMIC,Chip,turbo,clutch and then look to put a bodykit on with a re-spray.
I will be using the services of a workshop in Hermanus called Riekerts to do the machanicals,This will be a track or drag car and when we find a buyer for the CA i will be dropping in a RB25,This is going to take a while due to the S14 sucking me dry.Wish Riekert and i Luck ,We will be posting pics when the car arrives tomorrow.

Why not a body kit from japspec ? with c/f bonnet. That should be a good starting point !

True... but I think I'm gonna do all the mechanics and suspension first and then do the body.
