yeah, one of my friends has a sohc s13 on 18s all around gram lights with stretch and welded diff, he can still drift it and connect turns !! sohc are cheap motors, like $100
those are the good ones to buy too if you plan to immediately do a swap or just want a cheap DD. the single cmaes seem to be the least molested.

Man this is exactly how I got my start, working out of my 3 car garage, with limited tools, a lot of them were home made deals. But after about 5 years of that - I finally got a shop, it's not huge but I can park 6 inside, and 12 more out back.
I have a downdraft paint booth/oven, and last year we added the powdercoating setup booth out back also, we can only do parts that fit in a kitchen oven - LOL, I'm not going any bigger either.
But hey the cars look good in the pics, if ya ever find a problem or have a question lemme know man I'd be glad to give ya whatever advise I can.

Hey DKwash can you PM me your info?
I would love for you to prep my 1st gen SE for paint. I kinda have a hook up for paint already, I would just need your prep work and spray a nice coat of primer so I can drive it around a little bit...as I need to do the car in stages.
do you repair rust too? I guess when I am ready I will contact you directly. I will add a wing and front spoiler too...so I would love to support your efforts.
and last thing...u have to PROMISE me you will use CHINESE NEWSPAPERS to mask my car too! HAHAHAHAHAH!
I dont want my car masked with anything less!

yeah hand sand ftw.lol yeah my lungs... i had like asthma attack doing this paint job , had hard time breatheing after i sprayed the base, and by the time i cleared it I think i was close to feinting hahah...thats why this week im taking a break... Im guna buy a new mask too, i think my mask is done haha, its soo clogged. so hard to breathe in that thing. Also another reason why Im just guna rent a spray booth now, it has vacuuming suctioning the overspray [especialy clear]so I wont harm my lungs as bad lol

yeah i apologixe about that man, i ended up spending the weekend sick and helping a friend with his t2 drivetrain swap. things didnt go so well, we can probably work something out this weekend if you're free, my bad though
dood newspapers FTW !!theres always lot of them laying around, before recycling them, iuse them for masking haha.. rolls of masking paper at the paint store is expensive, why not use newspaper??
