Hey guys I just picked up a B13 SE-R yesterday for $2k with 134,2xx miles on it

Brand new stereo with 4 kickers speakers
New jdm lsd tranny
New ACT stage 2 clutch
New radiator
New radiaton fan motors
New engine seals
All lights new
New speedo cable and bulbs
new brakes and rotors
New sun roof motor
New alternator
New shocks/springs (OEM)

I just did the thermostat...

Needs- Muffler, Paint, wheels/tires because the ones that are on there now are bald and the wheels are chrome :eek2:

My plan is to do a 2.5" exhaust, a respray, grab some b14 se-r wheels for now hopefully with good tires, and get to work on building the motor. not sure if i want to do all-motor or turbo yet. Im just learning as much as I can before I make that decision...I come from VW land and Volkswagen 2 liters are about 20hp short of the SE-R and they cant handle nearly as much boost on the stock internals like the se-r can. but regardless this is my new daily/fun car. I hope to get around to the meets and 'meet' some nissan enthusiasts. Thanks for checkin it, feel free to leave suggestions

after owning 15 v-dubs myself (gti's,corrado's,jetta's ect..)all it took was me in a vr6 GTI getting spanked by a n/a b13 i was like wow:eek2:! vw are nices cars but IMO what a waist of money..too heavy not enough power and very costly..anyways welcome! you will NEVER go back!..lol!:rofl:

p.s. i dont think that 04 ser wheels will fit on a b13 which are 4x100 unless you change bolt pattern..

yeah those wheels wont fit

yea besides, on both my 2.0 golf and vr6 jetta it seemed like i was spending more money fixing/maintaining them than I was modding them. oh well

04 SE-R wheels wont fit? I was under the impression that they too are 4x100. damnit! i NEED wheels...still waitin on this guy to reply to his thread on the b14 se-r wheels

okay the wheels design isn't actually THAT bad, the car just needs to be lowered

i was kinda starting to think they wouldnt be too too bad if the car was lowered. either way they're going soon, and the car will be lowered. no worries guys, ill be on my feet pretty soon. im gonna take care of her :cheers:

the design of the wheels arent to bad like you said, but the color of the wheels is what makes it look bad. they might look pretty good if you scuff them up so they look a like brushed aluminum or paint them another color. CHROME is a NO GO on our cars unless its a polished lip wheel. just my opinion. :)
