    An imminent new project has hurried up the sale of this drift starter, so I'm putting it up before I've had time to get the MoT, 'cos I'm away next week
    and need to sell it soon after.

    It's an 89 Prefacelift S13
    Need to check mileage, but has recently had another engine fitted, and the big ends, timing belt, water pump and turbo have been replaced.

    Because of this.....

    DeadCA18withthrownrods1.

    17" Wheels (Not yet fitted but will be)
    Side skirts
    Rear Overbumper
    Repainted in Mercedes Arctic White
    Forge Dump valve
    Stage 1 ECU Chip
    HKS Intake
    Manual boost controller (not yet fitted but will be)
    Ralliart Bucket Seat (In the process of making a subframe, but bring your own seat if you're over 13 stone-it's snug :D
    LSD with shims doubled up
    Stainless Steering Disc (Waiting on this)
    Lowered Suspension (Waiting on this)
    MoT will be carried out before sale, but can drop £200 :eek: if you want it without for quick sale.
    Taxed til end of October.
    Spare set of 15" wheels with excellent tread on the tyres for playtime:)

    Hard, but imagine it dropped onto 17's:D Best get some on it later:nod:

    Ralliartseat.

    Looking for £1900 with MoT and lowered suspension, but won't be ready to rock for a couple of weeks because I'll be in Wales most of next week, and won't be able to get it MoT'd, and I'm still waiting on the suspension..

    Normal LSD which we doubled shimmed to tighten it a bit, but basically a viscous LSD.

    Not a lot of rust for the year, though there was some on the bootlid. We'll see what the MoT man says.

    The original seat has been binned, as it wasn't too clever.

    Yep, when I get back, unless someone wants to buy it before I go, but would have to be bank holiday Monday.

    Boot had some, but has been repaired before I got the car and was just tarted up a bit before painting. Can't see any on the sills, but I haven't taken the skirts off to check. There's a tiny patch in the front of the back arch, but don't think they'll fail it for that.

    Right, I'm off to load the trailer for the weekend :wave:

    The suspension was off my 180, I think just lowered, not sure if uprated. Peter Barber has them at the mo, as he's been drifting on them in the Cefiro. When his coilovers arrive, I'm having them for this. I'll find a pic of the 180 with them fitted.....

    Well, I 'm around tomorrow, then away Tuesday til Friday.

    Slight change of plan on the colour. Got back from Snetterton this evening and found that Gaz at work has been playing with the spraygun today:wack:

    The bumper, roof and boot have been sprayed in the same colour as Bruno's car but at least it hasn't got shark's teeth, like he keeps threatening to put on one of my cars before he leaves the job:D

    Got a steering disc on the way, and lowered front suspension and KYB shocks are here, so MoT time should be too far away. I might hoon around in it for a while to make sure there are no dramas with the new big end bearings etc.

    Don't worry about it, slight change of plan. Decided it's going to be plain white again. Unless Gaz changes his mind when I'm away :D

    Just want to get that steering disc off Ollie ( :thumbs: ) and get it MoT'd.

    Just checked the paperwork, and it has all the MoTs since 95, and some history in the book. Not that it makes a difference but hey.....
