this was originally my NICO add. I have added it on here. I will add as a note that I need this car gone and will not refuse any half decent deal.
I dont check Zilvia as often as NICO so for a speedy reply look up this add on NICO or email me. Ill try to remember to check here as often as possible though.

exterior:

have a rear bumper body kit from veilside that I will give for free with the car as its gathering dust
I also have 20mm overfenders (not installed) that I am giving with the car. (cost me $250ish shipped)

Flaws:
This car definitely needs some work. Most importantly there is a water leak in the engine bay, I have not located it, and it will need to be fixed before driving the car.
The entire wiring for headlights, taillights, turn signals and other lights needs to be redone. I had them all on switches on the dash but stopped driving it on the street (track only) so I didnt bother when they went out (the registration is valid, even though no street driving was done).
The headlights are dual sleepy eyed on custom built frames (one frame is missing in the picture but I have both) and one side (the side missing)'s headlights broke so will need to be replaced.
There are other small problems on this car, it basically just needs a little TLC to get it back into racing shape, and I have not had the time to do it as I have a 3 other cars to care for.

-Its story is pretty simple. I bought it from a company called Vegasdrift based in Las Vegas. It was a professionally drifted car alongside a green AE86 that the couple also owned.
-I took it home and drifted it for 2 years, both canyon and track.
-I nosed it into a canyon wall one night on Yerba Buena canyon in Los Angeles and wrecked the front headlight, tire and fender (lost silvia conversion :cry: )
-After that I placed the odd combination of black hood and bumper and red fenders and headlights and for good measure took off the rear bumper (body kit) and replaced it with a stock black bumper (I have the rear bumper, veilside kit and I can give it with the car as its just gathering dust)
-About 3 months after that I stopped driving it on the street and took it only to the track (mostly willow springs balcony and horse thief mile)
And for the last chapter so far written of its life, the engine got rod knock and had to be taken out and rebuilt, and now the car is being sold for someone else to write the next chapter. (I have LOTS of pics of the rebuild)

Here are some pics of it

I'm asking $2500 for it as it has a lot of work placed into it, and also a good number of parts, but also needs some work. I bought it for $6100 (roughly)
2 years ago.
All prices are OBO, I will entertain all offers, dont be afraid to contact me.

My email is: [email protected]
my verizon phone is: 805 729 7265
my AT&T phone is: 510 520 3473

I prefer Email, but will try to answer my phones. I do not know my work schedule yet so I cannot say when I will be free to answer but a good bet is 5PM-530PM its usually in between work and school. I receive texts and you are welcome to text me first to see if I can talk but I will not do an entire conversation by text message.

lastly: the car will not go very far due to the water leak. So if you live farther then 10-15 miles from me, bring a trailer. I am not shipping, if someone wants it shipped, they will need to set it up themselves and the company will need to come to my house to pick it up.


thank you for looking
