It seems like hatches are everywhere now. It’s still hard to find a clean s13 coupe though. ---

The car was stripped when I got it. And this is why: It IS the car Hooke & Shady are talking about. The kid’s name is Rod. He is moving back to Brazil for about a year and sold everything of his. The car only has 13k on it and the left front frame is rotten, even though the car was undercoated. I know a good welding shop my best friend’s family owns so I’m going there to get that repaired. But this whole thing about 2 years ago…the story he told me was that he had another gold 240 prior to this one. He got this one last year from Maryland. He swapped the 5-speed into it over this summer as well as all the dashboard an seats and panels from his old car cuz they were in better shape. At least that’s what he told me. But yeah, he DID like to drift. One wheel has a nice dent in it lol This car’s getting the RB20 anyways, boys. F the SOHC. I’m also taking the front end from the black derelict coupe and swapping that when I do the engine swap. ---

Just about everything. Crappy fuel/brake lines, no heat, no radio, corroded wires, HUGE brake pedal, half 5-lug, shitty Maaco paint job, broken gauge cluster, wiper issues, door locks were never replaced when the doors were so they cannot be locked, no back up lights or neutral safety switch, mangled fuel pump cover, broken/chipped interior pieces, missing glove box latch. All stupid little things that were unneccessarily stripped/broken/forgotten about during the original swap. Plus hatches handle better. Although I DO love the coupe/vert better. ---
