damn where did you find this? ive been lookin for a coupe in sa for ages lol go the ca sleeper man, or just sell it to me hahahah


He got it from me! It has been my wife's, and then my daily driver for the last 10 years - some people may have spotted it parked by Adelaide Uni as I work there I'll miss the thumbs up, and many comments at the servo I have had over the years but it is time for a 4 door car. I'll be going back to a BMW... 1200 4 doors are too expensive these days + I'm getting old and need a plush comfy ride

Good to see you're excited your purchase Dan. I found the posts on your ute build (it looks fantastic) and I am looking forward to seeing what you do with the old coupe! I think blue would suit it as you've suggested, although if you want the ultimate sleeper, maybe think about the factory pale yellow!

Just my 2 cents on the front end... don't worry about the stanza stuff. It already has the late 120Y struts, hubs and brakes (PBR), so just bolt on the S13 brakes suit the CA with some uprated springs. Your track width won't change anywhere near as much as with the stanza gear.

See here (although there are many posts on this conversion):

See you tomorrow when you pop round to pick it up. I'll get home from work around 5:30 - 6:00.

Cheers
Luke
