I think I am finally done with the outside appearance of the car now. Just have to do a few more things in the performance and interior departments and the car will be complete! I also think the wheels look like they fit the car a little better now that the body comes down some.

Hmmm... I have never seen anyone put the OEM 180sx rear pieces on a coupe. I wonder how it would look with the matching center piece installed back there....

You aren't wrong, but go back and reread my post more carefully. What he has on are 2 of the 3 OEM 180sx rear valence pieces. Notices how the lines don't match up perfectly on the 1/4 panel. Thats cause Coupes have longer rear 1/4 panels and a different bumper than 180sx. I am torn whether this 180sx valence (complete with the center panel) would look good or not. As it is right now its... interesting. It may look better with kouki 180sx bodykit (as in a kouki style Onevia).

that car is FRESH. good job man. so what are your future plans as far as interoir and performance goes?
Do some research. His car has performance covered. I personally think it looks like ass, but that's just my opinion. Not my personal taste. Engine mods look plenty beefy.

nice ride.
Very nice, in my humble opinion, I think the coupe has always looked better with the sylvia front end conversion.

Just a note... Aarons pics are of kouki STYLED Onevias. None of those bodykits are OEM type. To see that, you have to wait a little while while I get my hotroad kit onto my coupe (off my fastback) and get the coupe painted and shiat. I even have the OEM 180sx rear valence (but i am going ot get a Vertex rear bumper) so if I dont get the bumper for a little while, I will take some pics of the OEM rear valence with it as well (it probably wont look too good cause the hotroad sideskirts are ultra low compared to the OEM rear).

Thats cool man, everyone has their own style and I respect that, just out of curiosity, what does your car look like? Or if your car isn't quite up to what you would like it to be, give me an idea of what your ideal S13 would look like.

all i gotta say is i have seen some of the stuff ruf has for his car and know some of his plans and stuff coming in still (from overseas)

ruf will post about it if he wants but his car..my god. its not even funny how nuts it will be

I basically agree with ruf-- but i think its cool that your car doesnt look like anything else i have really seen. So its stands out, but its way too "Tame" and "meh" for my taste (and Dousan and ruf too for that matter, cause ohh... what... we dont talk about anything BUT plans for our cars... its kinda sad...). Anyway, MY ideal S13 is that Sexy Knights Onevia. Mmmmmm. One difference that I like more than my car's future look--- the edgy bodykit. It goes more with the coupe's lines than my Hotroad one (Kouki 180sx but tweaked and more exaggerated). But hey... I gotta be able to dream about what my car COULD look like (even though its gonna be the shizznittlebamsnipsnapsap).
As for ruf's car.... hahahahhaha if he goes with the color and wheels we agreed on Sunday night, oooooooh boy! Yeah htats all I can say. Now i need to go change my pants.
And for Dousan's car... its gonna suck. I mean that guy never makes anything cool.:doh: :p :D

No I just don't like S13 Silvia's in the first place looks-wise. Performance-wise sure, lighter front end, stiffer/lighter rear end. But the thing looks like the 1980's box that it is. The Bomex bumper doesn't help. It just seems too swoopy and curved for such an angular car. Not to mention the bottoms don't line up. I really don't know what you were thinking with that color, and I'm not trying to be insulting when I say that. I really don't know what your logic was when you chose that color. It's certainly unique. As for the wheels, they look great, but I've always felt that mesh is a "European" thing. I have no worries about you taking offense to this because I don't expect you to. You asked for my opinion/analysis and there it is. I certainly don't disrespect your car or your choices, but they do puzzle me.
Anyways, one hint about my car. It's stripped but not all nude. Still in the works. Once I finish it, I'll see if I want to hang onto it. I'm honestly getting bored with 240's/cars in general but that could just be from lack of seat time. Thinking about selling it and buying a track/race bike (dump the rest in savings) so I don't have to worry about tossing my RC51 in the kitty litter. Bah who knows.

The bottoms don't line up... I know man, I really thought the skirts were gonna come down lower to match the front end but oh well. I have always been anti-body kit so I wanted something really subtle.
The color.... hahahahah, I knew that people would either love it or hate it. I knew when I saw it on the bimmer that I had to have it due to the fact that I have only ever seen the color one time in the 4 years that it's been out. I absolutely couldnt be happier with it, and don't mind if certain people dont like it...
I have always had a thing for mesh wheels, I was actually gonna step way up and get BBS LM's but found such a good deal on these I couldn't pass them up.
No offense at all man, it's all good homie!

Your car does have a European look to it. But I think that's kinda funny since that car was never available in Europe.
