s13 Jr. Craigs build project!

I bought this car as a long term project with no actual finish date. Its come a pretty long way from when I got it already and I intend to have a complete 180sx replica built after all this with about 375whp. Im thinking about doing an E85 tune as well.
WHEN I BOUGHT THE CAR!





THE START OF THE SR BUILD & RHD CONVERSION!




















My Buddy Brought Over His New 5D Canon SLR and We got some pictures!




I got the cage in yesterday!




MORE DASH PICTURES DUE TO POPULAR DEMAND!






LOTS MORE TO COME....

Thanks! I have a guy that did it for me he's reasonable and does great work! I have no wrinkles at all! Its also the auto suede so it doesn't fade like upholstery suede. This dash was messed up with weird wrinkled dents because they stack the jdm front clips on top of each other. But he made it all work.

I love seeing people wrap their dashes.
Everything looks great. Any idea what color you'll spray the rest of the car?

Those first few pics really hurt my neck from having to turn my head sideways.

Other than that, looks nice.

Atcually the front clip was stacked and the firewall got bent. We tried bending it back as best we could but that's it. The vents were snug but went in nicely regardless of the deformed dash/firewall.

Im going to be painting the exterior pearl white(balloon white) to be specific! I bought the front clip for $2300. It was a 1998 type X clip with 27k. Then it was done at wrench pro in santa fe springs for rhd and swap. for another $2300.

Looks like some great work already and you're only a few posts in.

Nice to see a build by someone that isn't broke or a retard.
