Ok so saw Ivan and Jareds topics and thought yeah why not.

So anyways i own a 91 s13 sr20det (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile2.gif) good fun its my daily driver.This topic is gonna be pretty slow but there will be updates with pics after most mods (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile2.gif)

To start off ill post up the coilovers i installed about a month ago now (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile2.gif)

(IMG:http://a6.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc6/168520_10150976797586941_727898902_n.jpg)
Silkroad RMA8's that a bought through jesse streeter from japan (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile2.gif)

A pic of the car while they were going in (the guard is due for paint every soon, i got backing into in a carpark :/)
(IMG:http://a8.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc6/s720x720/206062_10150983976586941_279176516_n.jpg)

So for comparison here is a shot before and a shot after the coilovers (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile2.gif)
(IMG:http://a8.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc7/405732_10150597578321941_1493836686_n.jpg)
(IMG:http://a8.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash4/s720x720/479722_10150985739906941_787063890_n.jpg)

Also slowly collecting parts for when i egt my stud 17x9 Gram lights 57d\'s

So i have sitting in the shed a full 5 stud conversion, consisting of s15 front knuckles, hubs, rotors and calipers and s14 rear hubs and calipers. Also have a pair of adjustable castor rods and have a set of adjustable rear camber arms on the way.

So the plan will be over 2 days to put the whole 5 stud conversion in, replace almost all of the suspension arms with adjustable items and fit the new wheels with some rubber then go get it all aligned.

So there is a quick run down of how she sits now and some plans for the future.

Ill leave you with this.
