and i figure ill start it off with my most recent s13 this is my number 5 or so ive had 3 ka24de 1 sr20det and now this one is a ka24det s13 hatch my direction with this one is just to make a good clean fitted daily.. i pretty much have the fitment im going for but its liable to change im content with the power plant i have in now although i do see putting together a new motor for safer occasional higher boost my interior just needs some tlc

the car

1991 se hatchback full power with sunroof
~190k on the body
bc br type coilovers maxed low front and rear
xxr 962 18x9.5 235/40 rear 17x9 215/40 front
currently matte black spray bomb now with shaved hatch primered
at home baseball bat roll and pull actually came out smooth and not jacked up

~120k on the stock ka
to4e turbo
sr injectors
fmic
255 walbro
exhaust
probably 248/248 cam set up coming soon
rom tune

plan to come is some bucket seats, steering wheel, move gauges to a pillar, wrap dash in something so to hide the typical crack, find a ka rebuild it completely, throw a cometic hg and some arp headstuds in, port polish head, xcessive ka intake manifold, harness tuck, paint, new exhaust call it where i want it and actually hold on to the car for a lil while.. all this is up to change as always with my cars and ideas of course

and for some pics.

ya i dont i used to slide around thought it was cool got in trouble and gets expensive with tires and breaking parts so now i just make em too low as to stop me haha

well finally got the car back on the road from last thursday when i snapped my 02 housing and melted my part of my wiring harness.. got it runnin later that night just needed a whole new exhaust so tuesday dropped it off at mieneke in doylestown and got a full 3inch turbo back one off exhaust fabbed up.. no longer drag and spark everywhere and they did a great job. and now i throw a good amount of flames from the rich tune i have haha just nice to not cringe every bump in the road from fear of ripping my exhaustt off

KA ftw, it looks like your doing good so far. The BC coilovers are a good choice.

supraghost 02-23-2012 08:22 AM

hey we still have your garage door opener and gas can btw. Did you swap bc coils on there? interested to see what your new wheel setup will be

Dwreckdrifter 02-23-2012 09:40 AM
