New project PS13 build

Well now the BMW is built i need something to occupy some of my free time so picked this up thurs night (another late night road trip to Mayo lol)

will get pictures up during the week but basically the shell is well known.

Dan's old PS13 drifter. Barney :)

only a bare shell really at the moment but have a s13 for breaking so it will donate all the parts needed

plan is to build it as a road legal drift car because shell is tested till 2012:)

parts I have at the moment
completed a set of jic coilovers (thanks robbie) today,
dished 17 works wheels
all supension parts and dash from doner car
have a s14 engine sitting there too

now only question left is will I stick the 180 front on it or not hmmm hmmm hmmmm

sounds sweet dude. presume itll be an sr20, what turbo you be running? ill swap fronts if ya like:p any pics of the beemer, turbo e30 right?

Ah the front isn't complete. Bonnet is half broken and one wing damaged, and no bumper :(

oh the e30 is another thread lol. It's just BMW shell really absolutely everything is S14 on it and running SR20det :):):)

ah sweet! dam sr20 finding them selves into everything these days! b nice to see some pics of this. really like ps13's onevia's can look ace too though.
