Finally test fitted the VS on the back. I couldn't drop it on the car's weight because it poked too much, but if I had a nice pull it'd tuck rim nicely.
Definitely going to look around for another one to run in the rear when I get BN.

I just got my quick release. Nothing too exciting, just installed it to push the wheel closer to me. I'm saving the big purchases for when I sell my s13.

Well, the first event of the season is March 9th. Which means I need to sell my s13 pronto and get the fc going.
Need a radiator, fans, dtss eliminators, and I'd really like a rebuild before the event. Got way too hot and noisy last time I ran it.

Completely unrelated to this build, but I did a photo shoot yesterday with mine and my roommates cars. Another photog buddy of mine stopped by in the middle of the shoot and snapped some pics as well, his photos are the theee on the top and mine are on the bottom.

This has just been sitting for a couple months, thought it had a rod knock but I got it in the garage last night and started taking **** apart and it ended up just being a lot of loose flywheel bolts. Going to order new bolts from Nissan tomorrow and get all that **** put back together.
Also picked up some 25mm spacers for the +38's, looks much better now.
While I have it taken apart, I'm ordering brand new balljoints and extending them, getting rack spacers and tie rod ends, modding my knuckles, getting a 3-port power steering rack and having lines made to work with a KA power steering pump, and ordering aero. Big things are to come!
