Originally from this link.

Then the last owner disrespected it, or drove it till he got his money out of it. It was sligtly wrecked in the rear quarter panel when i got it. Most of its bad ass parts were long gone. It was parted out, and was about to be hauled off to a scrap yard. (I have owned the car twice now)

This is the last time this thing goes together! :D

HOW IT WAS WHEN MY FREIND BOUGHT IT OFF OF LISA!

Deleted pictures, cause everyone does not read.




How i got it. (first time)






It was since then PARTED OUT, and was a SHELL! No engine, no front, no NOTHING. I been taking over building it from the ground up. (UPDATE SOON) It now has another sr, and widebody, work wheels, etc etc. Pictures soon.

Currently waiting on a Instant Gentleman kit to come in, then having custom bumper supports fabricated and kit installed.

THEN PAINT!

In remembrance of my old S13 Silvia. I Think I will paint it the same color it was.

I am open to clean colors, ideas are appreciated.

I never put any stickers on this car. So I can remove the Megan one. Funny cause it does not have a single Megan part on it. :eek3d:

Updates, I am currently installing my PBM hydro ebrake set up, and I got some Circult Sports LED tail lights, AEM Tru Boost, AEM wideband 02.

I plan to mount a bluetooth, touch screen, navigation radio in the glove box.

From the second owner to the current owner, the car was taken from a stock looking clean coupe into a haggard "track" car. While aggressive track looking cars can look good, to some people it ruins the cleanliness and simplicity of what this coupe used to look like.

I'm not a big fan of the execution of this car but to each his own.

How is a clean Silvia front end determined to be a victim of the scrapyard?

I'd also like to point out that quarter panel dent looks like it was made because some asshat thought it would be a good idea to OVERPULL the rear fenders. To the point that the qp would buckle.

Throwing money at a car doesn't constitute a good build, nor does compiling a list of parts if the execution isn't done well.

It looked pretty good with those Z wheels. At least it was all one color.

I wasn't going to say anything, but since Mike did I thought I'd chime in.

No, unfortunatly they guy who ruined it didn't have a build thread. This thing was REALLY nice when Lisa had it, then it went threw 3 or 4 other owners before Coupedup up got it.

this car not too long ago had no engine, fucked up quarter panels, and stock front end.

...don't think he did this to a clean car, it was FAR from clean.

the car is nothing like is was when Lisa had it, and it might not be your taste, but it is some peoples taste, and most people would agree that it is a sick car.

i didnt realize there was a middle-man

i didnt want to stir up a shit show here, i just see the before and the after photos and said "this looks worse than before"

with that said, the overfenders... theres really no excuse to cut up a perfectly good body but, i understand if you just didnt care and wanted the car wider. at this point, it really doesnt matter, right? just do what makes you happy.

my advice, read the silbeer blog. it will give you a better idea how to do it right. not saying you're doing it wrong.... or maybe im kinda saying that. anyway, just read that blog.

It's funny how "clean" is just adding wheels and coils and an exhaust. The quarter panels were toast so the only thing you could do was add over fenders. Understandable.

I think it looks better now, but don't go too over board. Keep on doing what you're doing. No one zilvia likes change so they'll get over it.

Well seeing as how the convo was deleted, i dont know what was being said. Although I will say, the car is looking great. Love the overfenders, they just need to be molded. I would go with the old rims (that i still want to know what they are), and get rid of the z-style front fenders. But none the less, the car looks great. Build it the way you want it.

I seen this car in person before he bought it, and trust me he did save it.

I've also seen this dudes last build and he ususally buys good parts and doesn't cut any corners, so Im sure he'll do the same with this one.

My only question is, why build a replica of your old car?

I liked that car the most. I didn't like the fact it was RHD, and the wheels were 18x13 -20...Needless to say it was to big of a wheel. My new set of Equip wheels are 18x11 -30 rear 18x10 -30 front.

Installed a bracket that came with my PBM hydro E brake kit. It was easy to install. Almost a bolt in deal. I am going to make a carbon fiber panel to hold two gauges right next to the hydro e brake handle. I want this car to have full interior.

I like how the front bumper crash bar came out, nice work. Can't wait till you've finished the body work-I'm loving that Rocketbunny or whatever rear spoiler.

I lowered the rear about another 1/2 inch. The side skirts I got do not fit, I think we have to cut them in 3 sections, and re-mold them into place.

As promised. Here is the fitting install/routing. Best i can explain.

Line 1 goes from rear of master, to line.
Line 2 goes from front of master to block


Here is what the two fittings look like

http://i1100.photobucket.com/albums/g406/CPRB_ForSale/20140116_173533_zps2c43f396.jpg

Here is what the other fittings look like. 2 90s, 2straights. They can only go in one way.
http://i1100.photobucket.com/albums/g406/CPRB_ForSale/20140116_173615_zps9ef4bbcc.jpg

This is where you tap the lines in.
http://i1100.photobucket.com/albums/g406/CPRB_ForSale/20140116_173837_zpsbbac99de.jpg

Make sure you use a line wrech 10mm. It will be tight.

How wide are your rear overs?

CoupedupRB
01-24-2014, 08:30 AM
They are 30mm overs.

TODAY i pushed them out to 50mm though, and took out -3 degree camber! I had -6 when i checked it. Pulled the overs out to 50mm, and then pulled out -3 degree. End goal will be -1degree in the rear. My current set up will not go low enough in the rear do pull of the -1 set up.

Can hardly tell it has camber any more. ...compaired to -6....lol
