Default Hi all, n00b with 5.3L s13 in the works

Hey everyone, im a recent ME graduate who has been lurking on here for a year or so now gathering up info for my swap. This site has been a great resource for solutions and ideas.

this


is going here


I definitely have a lot of work in front of me; I'm still cleaning up the shell and prepping it for seam welding and a cage, then it will be time to modify the front sub frame. The plan is to have the car prepped for mainly autox/road course events by the middle of summer.

Gotta work out the understeer thats gonna happen with this 500lb monster in the front of a chassis that already understeers, lol...
