to each their own , but I think it looks horrible

the only thing I'd take off of are the wheels and the hood, and put them on an otherwise stock S13 and I'd greatly prefer that

those woudlnt fit on a stock body.
he has 50mm rear over fenders and a 30mm fender pull up front.
wheels are
f - 18x11 -3
r - 18x12 -33

its a drifting thing. low low offsets, big wheels, bodykits, rediculous ride heights and lots of power

It looks like a cross between an Integra and 240S...So what is it really? I know I'm getting old, this car is just a little too much for me. I like keeping them stock looking with power underneath. A car like that one says fast and everyone will want to challenge it. I love sleepers! Good luck building your own.

its a s13 240sx coupe, silvia front end conversion, sr20det, full cage, etc.

most of the cars are built purposefully for drifting, but we still drive them on the street. Alot of my buddies have cars that low, they still drive them almost everyday.

The problem with keeping an s13 looking stock is, you cant fit decent rubber without pulling the fenders, or adding over fenders., drifting is hard on motors, so vented hoods/ larger front bumpers are a must, as a front mount intercooler doesnt sit well behind a stock bumper.

drifting is all about track presence, the brightest cars, wildest graphics scheme, wildest wheels, etc. then it all comes down to style, smoke and angle.

I like it overall..I like the wheels, front bumper (minus the canard looking wings on the sides), the stance is nice, and I like the punch outs on the cage... It's cool that the car is used, so I can accept the fenders being riveted on.. I just really don't like rest of the body kit or the hood.. I never liked it when the side skirts stick out more than the rest of the car. It reminds me of Bosozoku style lol.

well alot of guys do mold the overfenders, but it doesnt hold up. plus the rivets just give it a raw look.

Im not a fan of the kit either, I like the sideskirts to flow with the car. i have a kit by the same mfg, but its a stream kit

So very true! I tried that a few years back and wound up in the field with $1800 worth of suspension damage in my other car!
