iLL Garage S13.5 build

We started with a BARE s13 chassie which was gutted completely and brought back to life. The car's intent is road course, but i'm sure we'll be doing other stuffs with it (hard parking ). I didn't want to build a car that was strictly for one thing. Right now as things change, get the car dialed in (motor/suspension tuned), maybe take it to some events and see where it goes. This car is not the cleanest by any means but will be built perfectly for my driving needs. Ultimately, I just wanted to build a car that i've always wanted. Enough, here are some pix..

335's?

drag car or what?

Dodge Viper sizes. Road race, some drag probably, maybe some drifting. Tommy isnt a fan of a lot of stretch (though it would look better and the car can be lower )

sick car liked the look of the rear fenders, i heard somethin about customizing them to make them bigger? what was actually done?

just bowed out a bit. They're 50mm flares, but actually closer to like 70mm.

looks good nice work..

sucks i've been slackin on my car, might be time to think about a diff color for me now lol

car is awesome. I saw it in person in the early stages, was raw even then.

Good meet tonight. I'll see you guys tomorrow. (posting details soon)

Were you at that JDM Chicago meet in Addison, IL?

The one last night? Yeah. (I don't know what town that was. The whole shop came out with our cars.

This car would be so much cooler if it had pop ups instead of the S15 front.

I saw this at the shop when they had it gutted. Haven't had the pleasure of seeing it in person.

Look what I ran into on the highway....
