i pmed you. man, if you can pay off the price i gave you as soon as possible youd make my life so much sweeter, check out my offer i think its totally worth it.. just im really impatient and im ready to scrap my shell...
you can have all my body parts etc... i got a title for it too
i lost my job so i dont really have a income yet to aquire my s14, i just want to get this deal i got going over with, i got like 90% of it paid off.. but yea my s12 has the rear spring/shock setup ive been running for years, those links will come included, my cage, etc.. i got the center piece to a turbo hood and some other random shit ill let you take off my hands, SE lip you can have too, just hurry up!
BTW, my shell is rollable on the rear half... getting it on a trailer would be no problem, just need 2 rachet straps and about 20 minutes.

ordered a set of ebay soild motormounts, still having a hard time figureing out what todo with the oil pan.. i did pull the pan off but the pump still sits very low.. my new pump has the pickup welded to it. so i have to buy a new pump, front sump pick up, and front sump pan.. might just order the kit from the link i posted and go from there..
more or less waiting till i buy daves old s12 before i start spendin anymore money on this..!

Deregisterd and waiting for you!
run that bitch auto! arent the auto trans stronger? and wouldnt it work better with your diff for now, i saw a turboed 5.0 volvo @ a local meet and he expkained those reasonings to me
Slap an auto on it for now then wen u got funds drop a tremic 5 speed in it
iv thought about it.. but the 700r doesnt hold very much hp.. and for me to run a turbo 350/400 id have to buy a new flex plate and stall.. in the end itll be the same as just buying a 5spd/6speed swap..
and if i run a auto now. ill have to get a custom drive shaft.... then just to pay to have another one made later on.. rather just take my time and do it once.. im in no rush.
went and picked up daves old car.. took some quick pics. ill post more tom
pretty much just using this car for parts.. the main reason i got it was for the roll cage
Such a sad end for such an iconic S12 :(

do w/e you want with it,
IMO.. the chassis is pretty straight. if you could figure out a way to redo the trans tunnel it would be worth saving. like cut my crap out and spend some time to make a legit one
just make sure a trans will fit in your other s12 before you cut mine up i guess
some more pics of goodies
links
new soild race motor mounts
turbo hood
turbo wing
did get pretty much a whole SE lip kit with the car. but some repair is needed so ill post pics when i get around to fixing them..
i will be using daves fender flairs but i wanna do some things different to keep the rear center trim pieces. and mold it
more parts!
another member sent be some parts for free(i payed for shipping). thanxs man!
and i got these pads a couple years ago when i bought my old red notch. there were in the garage, the guy said they moved out and whatever was left(car relayed) i could have.. which was only the s12 parts to the car i bought and these pads.. lucky me there 240 pads.. not the best but free!
finally got a day to work on the car.. got alot done.. almost ready to go to the body shop and have the rear pulled out.. got my wing on, rear wiper removed, new passager side glass in with latch(finally seals). front brakes painted and installed(lines will come tom). some other little odds and ends. tom will come the front end work

havent messed with this atall.. finally got around to towing it and the parts car to my new place.. i was pretty sick this morning so i didnt go into work.. got up around 5pm and felt will enought to get up and moving. figured i start putting around the parts car so i can get the cage out in 1piece. also where i live now i cant have it just sitting around(in the city now). so most of these parts will be stored in my storage unit. pain in the ass since it so far away!
moved the cars awhile ago.. still havent messed with it.. been thinking more and more about getting it up and running since my daily will need a new motor soon.. gotta finish building this motor in another g1 teg i bought..
did get daves old car ripped apart finally. i found a ka24e whole swap for $150 but the guy keeps bsing.. i bought one of my old s13s back. i had planed on just rebuilding the motor and resaling it.. the more and more i think about it, i might just pull the swap and sell the car as a shell.. but then again i realllllllly want to swap a ford 5.0 motor in!
the s13 
my s12.. its been sitting under this cover for soooooo long!
If you decide to sell the S13 intact, let me know. Or even as a shell. I am looking for another Formula D chassis to swap my SR20 into.
That other s12 you willing to sell some parts off of it
some pics of the motor build
work done today, plus parts
motors in.. 
clutch, flywheel came in, totally fun installing the trans on the ground alone
test fitting the 245/50/16
got in this in the mail
put some more work in today., driveshaft is in, harness ran. ecu mounted in oe placement. front brake lines installed and flushed. removed the carpet, found some ants nest, and where the old mouse was hinding out.. killed and removed the unwanted bugs. 
short shifter came in the other day, scored a obx header thrusday for $50 local. got the motor up and running, coolent(engine ice) in. just went with the s13 coolent hoses for now, as well as the stock pulleys. did have a problem with my fpr so im on the stock reg. now.. im having #2 injector problems but didnt have the time tonight to mess with it. since the header is missing the plugs for the egr, 02 holes.. so its super loud.
still need to play with the motor mount bolts, and make a better trans bracket since i cant seem to find my stock one.. but its moveable
yay
