This is how everything began...
A week before my first semester in college, I was car-less after having my '92 300ZX blow 3 piston rings. I found my 10AE in League City, just outside of Houston Texas via a Craigslist ad, and decided to jump on it, as I had very little time to find a running vehicle before starting college.
It had 114,000 on the clock, but was surprisingly well taken care of. No rust, and the body was very clean (except for the scraped up front lip!) The previous owner included a set of no name front and rear slotted/drilled rotors which I ended up installing the next week just for shiggles. It drove extremely well for having 114k miles, and I was extremely pleased with it as I drove it home back to San Antonio.
The build for this car actually started before I even had the chance to figure out what I wanted to do with the car; 4 weeks after purchasing the car, the stock radiator blew up and the way home from work one day, so I replaced it with a Mishimoto 55mm aluminum radiator that is still working out great today.
The engine bay in all of its stock glory!
I gave the car a good once over and got the lip repainted; really loving the roadster life and more importantly, the 10AE life!!!
