yeah np and thank you! I have been very busy. finally got to installing the radio yesterday and also re-wiring the electric fan. the relay switch it was on didn't have a friggin relay so I had to run it to the acceleration with a separate fuse to crank down any over usage the fan tries to drain. works flawlessly now. gotta find some relays for the ac and the entire ac setup as it has not ac. the power steering is also jacked up but I could care less about power steering. i already got my car sideways in a complete circle drift then right into donuts. :P

Well everyone, the vibe still looks the same. nothing new.

I have been working hard on the S13. Been an amazing project and fun if I may add. I am hoping that investing the money I have already started investing in it is worth it.

I'll be loading up some pics soon.

so i have decided to try to step back into the game with the vibe and throw some wheels on. I think I may be going with some xxr 527 staggered wheels for a try. going to see how this plays out. hopefully, i can get the wheels.

I'm loving the stance and the subtle stretch in your tires 8-)

That stance is killer. I have to say, I'm more than a little jealous :lol: This will serve as an inspiration, when I have an actual budget to get some work done on my car. Maybe a desktop background too, lol.

thnx all for the comments! i can't wait to get my coilovers and go a bit lower. i love the fact that the outer flare covers any fender rolling i have to get done and how you can get your wheels to flow with the car just right. let's see if i can manage to slow down a bit on my 240sx. i'll load up a pic of the updates on my 240sx as well

That's a clean 240 if I've ever seen one. Every 240 around here has cracked, mismatching bumper covers, and been run into the ground by drift wannabe's.

Great thanks!

Awesome photo of your vibe without the hood! Did you take it off at the show? Where did you put it?
