Lose the diamond wheels and it will look 100 times nicer.

[Snatch'D Factory]

I like the wheels personally. Very nice and clean. But I'm definitely going to subscribe to this build, good luck with this.

[di-devol]

Nice, you bought a car and gave it a tune up. What part is the build?

Edit, sorry.

[Gleeso]

Wheels with stock body look great. They really suit the fat tyre profile...fatter than usual, that is.

[Oakville]

Genuine K's? Nice, dont see too many of those in good shape.

[keifer]

I love diamonds, but they look terrible on 240s. Ditch them for sure. Otherwise nice.

ya what he said.?

[KiLLeR2001]

I'm assuming the previous owner added the rear side markers? Real Silvia's did not come with them, this was a 240sx attribute.

[greenwood]

I like the diamond wheels a lot.

[No 240.. No id]

Did you pick that car up from Clarksville TN?

[Big Zee]

+1 million.
get something better then heavy ass trailer wheels.
Black works, but you'll acheive a huge standout with white or gold and it'll make your car pop out very nice.

congrats on the silvia though

I hope you know that its just a rhd clip and it was welded on.

[Oakville]

LOL!!

msglngth

[milo2191]

if it was a rhd clip there are no weld marks has rhd door panels full rhd chassis harness. power doors are rhd. if it is a not a real one it is the best i have ever come across.

[bc.]

I wouldn't swap a 1UZ into that if it is a real K's... Leave it how it is or sell it and get something else to swap that V8 moturd into.

Pics of the VIN will surely tell us whether this is JDM or just a clip. Check the doors, dash and firewall then get back to us. :D

try and take off the carpet.

[NismoPlsr]

The rear side markers are suspicious. Also, it is hard to tell in the pictures but JDM will have factory goldish tinted glass.

The most sure fire way to check would be looking at the underbody. A JDM chassis won't have two full "frame rails" and looks like this picture. A North American chassis has full rails on both sides.

[milo2191]

if this is josh then we will have an issue do to you signing and stating on a legal document (bill of sale) this is a silvia.

Well, I guess we got our answer...

:drama:

[SheLikesItSideways]

Nope I'm not josh but was told by some people it was a clip. But since it seems like I'm the idiot and don't know what I'm taking about maybe you should lift up the carpet and take a picture of what you see or jack up the car and look at the frame I'm just trying to help you out.

[drftngs14]

i hope for OPs sake its legit..

[yzrider450f]

OP got fuggin owneddd. His fault for not being able to tell the difference though,

[NismoPlsr]

As much as it would suck if the OP thought he bought a Silvia and it ends up a conversion... It is one of the better conversions I've seen, so that is a plus.

[KiLLeR2001]

yes i now know it is and was screwed over. its a conversion sadly still beautiful car.

It's a conversion, and currently for sale now.

[Snatch'D Factory]

Its still a cool looking S13, i would keep it. It may not be what you thought it was, but you have to be patient. Good Luck in your search.

Link for us Killer?

I agree though, I think it looks great, just trash those wheels and :hitit:

[-SpOoLiN-]

Dang. Sucks that its a conversion. But still nicely put together

[Oakville]

What blows my mind is the vin...OP mustve known it was an american car via the VIN. If the guy swapped over the vin plate/firewall from a japanese car, why on earth would someone VOLUNTARILY give up the 17 digit vin.

[NismoPlsr]

So they can sell it for a legit Silvia price tag?

I wonder if the door jamb sticker is still there?

[Luvs2slide]

the 1988 model silvia will start showing up stateside very soon. A buddy of mine will be sending his back to the states this coming december.

I didnt even think about that, locally JDM cars typically go for 50-75% of what their north american counterparts do (supras, RX7s...sometimes silvias)
