It failed! (kinda)

Well.. I dropped the S13 off for the MOT this morning, when I left it there I wasn’t expecting it to pass, at least because of front wheel arch issues and the amount that has changed etc.

On a really frosty morning I drove it to the testing station as cautiously as possible, because I’m very used to 4WD now!

2 hours later I got the call, it has failed, for front wheels fouling the arches (expected that, but I wasn’t able source different wheels for the test) and a number plate light out… that’s it!! So I’m very chuffed, only a few small bits to change, but it’s pretty much ready to rock!

Watch this space!

I was over at Morf’s today and took a few sneak photos of his nearly ready-to-rock s13. He’s real busy recently so I thought i’d post this for him in his section. The car has a high spec CA18 motor, a full suspension package and a whole shit load of bodywork just around the corner. It should be *really* special when it’s completed.

Not quite a 180

While I may not have a 180, I do own a UK s13 and will be documenting my ownership and build on here along with Joe, and others when they come on board.

I will at some point back date the work done so far, and the story up until now. Unsurprisingly my sx is off the road at the moment being built back up after an engine failure all too long ago. Today something a little special arrived for the car:
