My 240 Build Up *Pics* 56k GTFO

Here are pics of my buildup, I wont be posting every pic but if you check the ftp or whatever, you should see them.

I decided to get a new S13 because my other one had way too much rust and it was getting too unsafe.

Btw, just wanna thank everyone who helped make this possible.

Face, Mike, Varun, John, Dustin, Walter, Gonad, Zee, Devin, and if i left anyone else out, i’m sorry. It’s late and i should get some sleep.

This is how it all began

And here are the last pics taken, Mike (spd dmn took them the other day)


Dustin’s(Hurricane) car in the background. :slight_smile:

Hope you guys enjoyed it.

seeeeeen

love the oni’s

want some pics of the SSRs!!!

good sizing, toss those stock rims away.

good work on everything Mark (and everyone else who helped him) and hope you break it in asap.

after i say we run some spirit runs to do a final break in!

you know where :wink:

shit, havn’t gone there since my stock clutch was still in…

wheres our tour guide!

good job on the car, i’m really impressed with the work you put in your own car

very nice, heh chamapgne green/silver whatever that color, looks similar to my car except mine is blueish.

Can’t wait to go for a spin. I am curious how your Cusco mounts feel :stuck_out_tongue: Looks much better than your old car. I wonder how rusted your old car was, I forget.

Let’s put it this way… he could unbolt his engine from the engine mounts through the front wheel arch.

Nice Mark, Glad to see your car back on the road.

Hell I wish mine was done this early

wow that’s hardcore lol.

Put it this way, his boost gauge ran in to the car through a hole in the wheel arch, and back through another one that lead in to the cabin of the car.

Wow, your car looks the exact same as mine without the sleepy eyes or those rims. You should sell your Daytime running lights to people in the states. They love that shit.

nice !! how much better is the ARC smic compared to stock sr smic ??
thats one clean chassis you got :smiley:

|------------------------|
Precisely this much.

(not to scale)

mark is that ericson’s old car ?!?! better see u at the track this year!

Put it this way, the girth of the hole in marks’ frame would make an LS1 blush.

:cool: to exterior

:squintnono: at removing brown interior in place of black

good job mark, you’ve done well!

as sarcastic as solarian was being, he’s actually not far off.

the arc is maybe 3/4" thicker than a stock smic, which would make a huge diff.

nice… are those Kevlar pucks on that clutch ? if so… your the 2nd person “other then myself” who has got them from euro-drive.

I actually had a buddy request the exact same setup I had done for himself and they told them “we dont do Kevlar”. Which I found strange since they got me kevlar pucks but he ended up having no choice but to go with Ceramic.

car looks great except for teh shit brown interior…

thats been changed, its all black now

he swap out the shit brown interior for black interior.

yeah he took out the brown shit now its black
