I'm back with me 200SX S13 project. I bought this car 5 years ago and it was 99% rust free, unfortunately 5 years on the coast has eaten it
I've not been active on the forum for a while due to buying my first house and I didn't have internet for a while and I got used to not going on it. I now know what it's like to be skint, I may own an S13 but I've been cycling to work for 3 months as the tax ran out and the MOT which it can't pass as it fails emissions. This is likely due to number 1 cylinder burning oil or a dirty AFM or something.
Since it's been burning oil since I rebuilt the engine 2 or so years ago, I decided to park it up on my drive and I'll rebuild the engine again. I assume I nicked an oil ring on piston installation. I've never damaged a ring before but if you're going to make a mistake you might as well make it on your own car right? I think last time I did a compression test it was slightly down on all cylinders, I might do another test before stripping it down.
Sorry for the ramble, to cut a long story short the car runs perfect and it looks presentable but it needs an engine rebuild and rust removal.
Now onto this morning;
I have hoovered the interior a bit.
I have also cleaned the drivers door shut and fuel flap.

If you look closely you can see the rust forming in all the seams
