Ownership History
Cone purchased this S13 240sx in 2009, to replace his project car that was destroyed in a car accident the year prior. The car was purchased after Cone put out a post in his local 240sx club forum that he was looking for a replacement chassis after the accident, and a member of the forum offered to let him pick any of the cars they had in a storage unit for $200. The car he ended up with was a rare Super Hicas SE model, that had been heavily modified in the past, been in a minor front end collision as well has had a significant hole cut in the firewall, presumably to fit a larger engine.
The project started in late 2009, fitting the subframes and engine and drivetrain from his previous autocross car project, CD2. The car was built over the next few years to compete in the SCCA Autocross class "STX". This allowed for some basic modification to the car, including exhaust, intake, and suspension mods including a set of Stance GR+ Coilovers, as well as larger wheels and tires.
