I'm up in Albany, a little of a drive, but I have an S13 with an R33 RB25DET installed, I think IT kicks ***. We gotta try to hook up once the weather clears.

I help run a crew of 700+ Import Lovers with the core members being 240 owners.

What are you going to do with this beast?

My plans for the future should happenin this order...

Nismo SSS lsd, tein full suspension, Jun Auto drag member, R33 ft brakes & rotors, Z32 rear brakes & rotors with 5 lug swap & Blitz Technospeed Z3 wheels in silver or Skyline 16x8 5 spokes in gunmetal. I have a tire sponsor wlready gonna give me Goodrich comp T/A's all around. That is the next step. After that I am thinking of S13 Silvia ft end swap with HID lamps. Then I am planning on pushing the motor up to around 450-500HP (hopefully on stock internals just new turbo & injectors) and seeing how long it takes before I am bored with that. I drove the car the first day and giggled like a school girl. Now I am kinda numb to it. I already want more power. Who know where it will go from there. I am looking for some sponsors to help with the fundage right now and hopefully it wont be hard to find them.

How long before your SR is in?

Holy ****.

What is this car's purpose? Show, drag, drift, autox, track, speedvision? Sounds like a lot of work.

The reason I ask is because I am sponsored as well but I have track time and another car being built.

My SR gets here Saturday.

The purpose is basically for me to completely enjoy the car. I am 98% performance minded and only about 2% show minded. I am using it mainly to promote my up and coming company and to get recognition for my skills. I am currently working with someone who is also into Nissan and has an SE-R built real nice with the SR20DET. We are trying to get a business going in the upstate area to build imports.

How and who did you get sponsered by and if you dont mind, maybe I could pick your brain a little. I have good mechanical knowledge and ability, but I am not sure of the politics of getting sponsored.

Maybe we could meet up some time next summer and compare cars. Hopefully I should have most of the suspensino done by then.
