Drill out the spot welds to get it off the car, hammer it back into shape having access to all sides, weld it back on. Spend more time in cleaning, seam sealing and spraying in cavity way to prevent rust than actual metal work. The section may be available new from nissan still as well. Could weld tabs on it to pull one side with a slide hammer and hammer on the other also if its just a chopped up drift car like it is.

I know you were talking about just doing a super simple setup for suspension, but you might consider partnering with FDF since DriftHQ is the US distributer (and you're making it your DriftHQ demo car) and put their stuff on it. I'd also just love to hear what you think of their stuff. The dudes over there seem really knowledgeable.

You should definitely keep those fenders on that car. It looks soooooo good with them!

Wheels on this car are supper og, love them.

If you're going through the trouble of painting the bay and cleaning it up you gotta do a top mount for the style points.

Love to see the build content back, gets me excited just watching.

Bet when this build is done, he will have more seat time in this s15 within a week than his FD s15 has all time.

S13 setup does sound badass ngl. Top mount seems more serviceable and less of a hassle. One thing, the body kit is very unique & badass too, would love to see it on it...but yeah

I have a good hunch I know where your noise might be coming from. When they changed the lower control arm mounting point on the front I think it screwed your suspension geometry to where it’s binding. If they didn’t adjust the other suspension mounting points to match the proper alignment then it will have issues with binding. It was hard to tell without physical seeing it in person.
