Up for sale is a my Sileighty project I've had for a good 3 years. The car was a fixer-upper that was in bad shape when I saved it. The car was refurbished with the idea of emulating a Japan only model Sileighty w/ the intention of above average OEM performance. The car isn't 100% accurate, but is probably one of the closest recreations in the states in great shape (that I've seen). While the pictures don't do the car justice, $10k + many late night wrenching was poured into the restoration of the car (with the help of a couple of shops).
Some of the important restoration info:
- New exterior paint (Audi Daytona Gray Pearl) w/ Silvia & 180sx panels to complete the Sileighty exterior
- Refurbished interior (carpet, floormats, proper and complete trim fasteners, front and rear seats)
- Low mileage S14 SR20DET (VTC & T28 Ballbearing turbo)
- Rebuilt Transmission
- VLSD (shorter ratio)
- 5 lug swap w/ new bearings
- (Just installed) Complete Z32 brake upgrade (w/ z33 12.8" track rotors up front)
- DS2 HID 4300 Low Beam Conversion w/ proper LHD lens (won't blind people)
- 99% Complete JDM change over (manual seatbelts w/ trim, functional DCC, HUD gauge cluster w/ HUD dash, folding mirrors etc)
- Sensible Suspension Mods
- All paperwork of work retained and available
- Much more (pls inquire)!
The car is in great shape interior/exterior and is in running condition. The engine put down a healthy 197RWHP @ 7psi (have dyno sheet). There are some minor mods to the engine, but for the most part the car is stock (per their respective origins). All major maintenance was performed by Performance European in Santa Clara. Also with this sale, comes ALL the working spare parts that I've accumulated with this project.
While the car is in great shape, it isn't 100% perfect by no means. The actual mileage of the chassis is unknown, though it says 150K on it (the gauge cluster was replaced when I bought it.) Buyer will have to figure out the smog situation for the car (willing to accommodate for the inconvenience).

Regrettably, I'm selling the car to fund my continuing fight against cancer. I'm not in a huge hurry to sell as it's been a great distraction for me. But would like to tighten up my finances.
I'm an email type person, however I can be reached in the evenings @ 408-422-3212. Please let me know if you have any questions. Asking $10k obo. (Any reasonable offer will be considered.) Test drives available for serious buyers.
