Welp looks like its been a minute since I've checked in but I thought I'd dust this page off and give some updates.

some new parts added to the coupe as follows

Nismo Power brace


Parts Shop Max oil pan guard


NISMO Forged Open End Lug Nut Set


DSPEED NISSAN SILVIA S13 GTR GRILLE


I was going pretty strong on updating the car until I had a bright idea in Feb of 2021 to buy an S14 rolling shell and try to get it running. Prices just kept hiking for parts and labor so I ultimately sold the S14 in May of 2023.





The s13 just sat in the backburner and I ultimately paid the price by letting the car sit with a dead battery and falling behind on smog, injectors and maintenance that I just put off. In my defense I spread myself pretty thin thinking I can have two project cars a toddler and Home to maintain (lesson learned LOL)

I handed the car off to my buddy Kyle at Pro shop Noble and he was able to dial in the car for me which helped me a bunch and now she's running beautifully.



I ended up buying Kazama Tension rods to match the rest of my arms and installed the Nismo power brace at the same time



Here's how she sits currently My buddy Dave asked if he can light paint my car so we shot some cool photo's in DTLA









as of late I'm pretty bored of my current wheel setup so I have some wheels in mind I want to build as a spare set, I also need to start building my spare KA24DE which has also been collecting dust in my garage
so that is definitely on my list to keep the car on the road longer.

Peace!
