My name is Tangi I'm 19 and I'm from France but I plan to move to Birmingham(UK)soon. I'm into japanese cars especialy S-chasis. I work as a car mecanic but I'm pretty good at bodywork So this is my projct car ! (I daily my mom's 318i e30) I just bougth this onevia in rough condition (bad paint, dead batterie...) It has an SR20DE with a toda exhaust mainfold (then straigt piped) and an apexi intake, some ebay coilovers, 5lug convertion and s14 wheels aswell as a fake bride seat and an aftermarket steering wheel with a NRG quick release. The body is rust free but the paint is shot (first mod to come: bodywork!!!)

# Wypple : Those white lines in the pics... but good start!Yes sorry about that, my photoshop game is not on point yet ^^ Added 46 minutes later: So I've painted the car last night (400V$ in materials), new (used 100V$) front right fender and new tail light (used 150V$). Repaired the rear bumber that I had. This gray looks so good on the car ! The car is running great with the new battery (100V$) Next mods: wheels !

Yea having impatient is wrong, it make you like rushing and forgot what you're doing, that main reason mistaken happen.
