well, as above really. i should be picking up a t28 this week. its done low miles, and bolted on to a nissan 200sx s13! :D

its fully stage 1 at the minute running just over 225bhp.. its got all parts to make stage 2 in the boot! should be around 280bhp after a days work on it (first job the day i get it) lol. rwd jap power! :D lol i think i may leave it at stage one to get used to the RWD tbh lol



fingers crossed :D
 
Saw this on facebook. are you getting this alongside your A3? or are you swapping the A3 and having the S13 as your only car?

Good luck with the CA. Not too S13's around that havn't blown up the CA and replaced it with an SR!
 
Unless he has a very late one with an SR. My mate had an s14a and its just so so easy to get the back end out. Be careful, respect it, and learn it well.
 
s13 yes :) its going to be my daily. at a trackday noise test it was 104db at 4000rpm. its fully stripped out so that should be fun going up the dual carriage way to work! lol

im definatly going to take it slow to start with. well, the first night im goin to go to a big open space and just see what happens if i press the loud pedal! lol

Stage 1 being 225bhp will be a CA not an Sr, stage 1 SR's make a happy 250+ any day of the week.

104bD is proper loud dude, and you won't be able to go to many trackdays AT ALL because most have a limit of 100 max.

If you're going to get an SX, I'd really think an S14/14A with an Sr would be a better bet.....
 
And ive no idea of the condition of your a3,but s13's are notoriously rough in the body/chassis area, qnd most nowadays need welding work. Point is just be wary.
 
the exhaust is horrible tbh. i hate it, first thing im doing is buying a bung! lol

the a3 isnt the best condition, cracks in bumper and rust all over the place lol

saying that, the s13 is faded as anything! lol but, im not fussed by condition at all as i will respray it anyway :D
 
i'v gone jap!


wow! lol the 180bhp quattro doesnt even come close. even if the s13 is only running standard 7psi boost! got a blitz boost controller and for the stage 2 its set 2 15psi. but im not going on that yet, wait til im used to the rear end wanting to pass me on roundabouts! lol
