Decided to start a thread on the S16,mostly so i refer back to it and remember what ive done already.

I owned this car about 5-6 years ago and sold it to a friend then regreted soon after. Then about 2 years ago my same friend brought it as a non runner and did a fair bit of work (clutch,driveshaft,wheel re-furb and some other bits and bobs) then lost interest because it wouldnt idle. He needed the space for a new project so i took this on because i loved the car 1st time round and i couldnt see it go for scrap.

Here are some pics while it was still up on axle stands when i was sorting the inner wing being split and sorting the gearbox mount.







As you can see its very much a work in progress
but it runs now and idles lovely. Its going up on a ramp tomorrow to find out the full extent of the project!! Maybe one day it'll go for a respray(if a grille ever gets put on!!)

Meant to say before its got a fair few mods,
Devil exhaust
Power boost valve
Van Aken remap
Induction kit
Lowered but dont know how much
M3 mirrors im still undecided about
Rear wiper removed.
Toad AI606 with remote start
Momo steeering wheel and gearknob
Laguna splitter
A few dents and scratches and a roof with no laquer on it!!

Will carry on when anything of interest happens or i give up!!

After very carefully getting the car on the ramp,love the low look but a pain in the arse to look underneath the result was....buggered rear axle bushes,lower arms and droplinks. Could of been worse i suppose.
