Well here i am again, back into an S13! This one needs some work! not the cleanest 240SX in town but i've been making some good progress on her and i got a pretty damn sweet deal on it, too!
This car also came with a ton of extra parts and even another motor and tranny.

Anyways so not much has changed since i bought the car on the outside, the car was dirty i cleaned it up thats about it, here's some pics of the car. I apologize that some of them are at night but you get the idea.








Okay thats it for the outside after i got it home and washed it an all that jazz.. next is where a lot of my work actually comes in.








CAR HAD A FULL HARNESS AND NRG HARNESS BAR IN IT WHICH IS F/S BTW.



Trunk was absolutely FULL of trash and car parts and leaking fluid lines the spare tire area had puddles of random fluids in it... this is what it looked like after i removed all the material items out of it and soaked up the majority of the fluids..






Here is what the car looked like midway through my interior strip and cleaning/scrub down of all the surfaces in the car...








Now here is some of my progress on the interior. I went and picked up an uncracked dash and full set of kouki s14 front and rear seats from KendallH (Thanks again, man!) And also grabbed some suede fabric for the glovebox and door panels also have an NRG Quick release and NRG leather wrapped wheel coming in the mail also so pics of that to come!

I found a black and gold crown royal bag to craft a shift boot out of since the car was using a hideous red bandana when i got it.. this is only temporary as i have a black leather one and a tomei 90mm shift knob coming from enjuku racing on the way as well!



This was my first attempt ever at trying to do upholstery work, so gimme a break before i could figure it out, i realized i needed some sort of fabric backing for the door panels to compensate for the thickness of the OEM material, but over-all they didnt turn out too bad. I also added some amber bulbs to the gauge cluster.





Anyways, that's where i am at now, tomorrow i am going to tap the tear to custom fit the kouki s14 seats into the rear of the car so i have back seats again and im also going to start cleaning up the horrid embarrassment that is the engine bay as well! let me know what you guys think!

also, thanks guys! today im gunna start working on gettin the S14 seats in the rear

 

In before car is sold/traded for a lesser car in two weeks LOL!

This car has potential, it's nice the first thing you're doing is cleaning it all up, getting it nice, instead of tearing everything out for racecar.

I'm a big interior whore, look at all my cars over the years. I remember when I my ashtray in from Canada for the GTR, I felt like a 5 year old on christmas morning.


Engine bay shots? I don't post any of mine of the Sil80, shit's waaaaaay to embarrassing.

 

i wont be posting any engine bay shots till i can give it some attention, it's pretty gnarly under there. poorly painted red valve cover done with regular rattlecan so it's flaking and poor elecric fan wiring.. all functions well, though.. anyways im huge on interior as well and as of right now i wanna get the inside complete then get AC running in the car.


IF this car is sold or traded it would only be for a different cleaner shell.. but i dont see myself getting rid of this car..... yet....

 

This made me chuckle. Lol.

Good progress so far man.. keep up the good work.

 

thanks my dude! lots to come with this car!
