200sx S13 build up from Latvia

Hello!

I'm new here, this is my first topic.

Decide to post my project. Have some reasons. Here are very good project cars from all around the Europe. Actually it was big surprise for me how serious are drift scene in Europe.

Well,
Begin with Honda's many years agou, it's gone now. Have local tuning shop, sold it last year. I'm happy now.
After year of doing nothing in this way, regular working and family stuff found some new inspiration -Nissan S13.
Why I like them. First of all, they are very simple and strong cars. Strog chasis, beautiful body, big potential motors and most important clasic drive.

My project car. It was hard to decide which way to go, daily drive or for drift racing. After recomendations from local people about this fantastic home page I decide to go in to drift racing.

Got chasis for 300eur. No engine and transmission. With lot of rust, the driverside doorstep was so rusted I would say there are no doorstep anymore. Begine with engine room, after first steps understand that it's not serious and decide to go big.

My plan. Till 1 of September this year.

1. All necesary body work, rust elimination.
2. Body full sand blasting
4. Factory spot welding and joint rewelding
5. Pockets for front wheels for biger stearing angle.
6. Roll cage
7. Body painting in Honda Championship White color.

Looking for some bolt in 6-point roll cage for good price.

Some pics of progress:








This what I did with engine room, but there will some more modifications.
