My Sil40 Build

[StatticMyke]

The first few post's of this build thread will be brought over from another forum I started the thread on. Hope you guys enjoy. Im pretty excited about it.

First up, the car. I had recently sold my last car a Genesis Coupe, and was sick of making payments. My brother and pops are both in the S-Chassis game so I figured I'd try my luck at it. Found what i think was a pretty good deal on craigslist and drove a couple hours in an ice storm to pick her up.
1990 Nissan 240sx/Silvia Front/SR swapped and some sweet 17" Konigs, one was bent, and another had two spokes cracked completly through. Made for a fun drive home.

Got the car home and immediately hit the web to start ordering parts.
First on the list was overs. The rear quarters had some damage and figured overs would be the best bet and would match well with the aero I had in mind. Also I picked up a set of MB Battles. Before we get in the debate about overs and battles and not being an aggressive enough wheels it needed to be done due to the damage on the quarter panels.
Anyway picked up the Fineline Tuning 180sx 50mm Overs actually seem to be pretty good quality for a replica.

Ordered aero as well, but the silvia front bumper was on back order for a month so it gave me sometime to clean the car up get tires mounted and wheels on the car. Rolled and pulled the front fenders some and rolled the rears for the time being when i decide to drive it to work. Also knock out the 5 lug conversion.

Had a mishimoto fmic laying around the garage so decided to throw it on and replace the beat up fmic that was on the car when I got it.

Forgot about this waiting on the build thread to be approved.
Also forgot to mention in the first post the build starter March 1st 2015.
So at this point this is about how the car sat.

Aero finally came in, fit like shit (VIS B-Speed). Probably should have seen that coming but anyway we made it fit.

Mounted the overs. Stock quarters were beat to fu*k

Overs came from *Fineline Tuning and fit great. Pretty cool company to work with.

So about this time I was ready to see some color on her. So I started the body work. Had never really messed with body work, had watched some other people do it but never done it first hand. So fuck it Ill give it a go.
Scotch brighted the whole car down and started circling all the dents and dings. You never know how many you have till you start circling.

Then started the process of laying bondo and sanding.

Then my brother shot it with primer and me and him sanded some more, and some more, and some more.

Finally knocked it out and later that afternoon shot it with color.

Taking a step back real quick. So at this point I had owned the car a couple months and everything was going smooth no issues so I was pretty stoked on how everything was going. All along I had planned on going red with the car. Was leaning towards Honda/Acura "Milano" Red. But at the last minuted I had started looking around at different colors and kinda wanted something a little bit different. After looking at a bunch of different colors I came down to two. Ford Z9 Candy Blue Tint, or BMW (Cant remember the Paint Code) Atlantis blue. Not to be confused with BMW Atlantic Blue. Upon more searching it seemed the BMW color was fairly rare and there was quite a bit of debate over the EXACT paint code as there were numerous. I had this vision in my head of exactly how I wanted it to look so final choice went with the Ford Z9. No turning back. Went down to the O'Rileys had it mixed up and purchased all the rest of my supplies to get the paint job done.

Sprayed the wheels white as well while we had a little down time.
My pops came over and sprayed her down with some color

Nice build, how hard was doing the body work? I'm thinking of doing my own body work as well.

[StatticMyke]

Let everything sit over night and started putting everything back together that next day. Was to stoked not to get out and cruise around some.

Still plenty of stuff on the list to get taken care of.
Currently have 30mm spacers on the rear but just ordered 35mm.
Also ordered some new lug nuts. The gold we had just laying around and I hate how it clashed with everything else. Order some BLOX 50mm in neochrome. Fanboi shit fuck it whatever haha.
DMAX tails, 326 wing, street faction front bash bar, clear corners, and some other small shit on the horizon just gotta get the money back right.

Anyway hope you enjoy the build, ill keep updating as it goes along.

Nice build, how hard was doing the body work? I'm thinking of doing my own body work as well.
It wasnt as bad as I expected, but it was nice having family who knew what they were doing so they could come check it out and be like you need to work on this spot more so on and so forth. If you know someone who knows what their doing that could kinda keep an eye on your work I'd say go for it. Mines not perfect but if your looking hard enough to see the imperfections your trying to hate.

O'riellys sells paint?...

I'm not sure if they do everywhere but the one near me does. Full paint shop theyll mix up whatever you want just bring the paint code and your wallet.

[StatticMyke]

Picked up some BC Coils this weekend and installed, The JIC Magics were just to soft for as low as I want to be. Also picked up a Personal wheel, NRG Hub. and Circuit sports quick release.

[StatticMyke]

Not to much new here. Buying a house so everything is kinda on hold.

I did refresh a silvia grill and install it.

Nothings really changed.
Waiting on my Street Faction Bash Bar to come in. Other than that, tail lights are next on the list.

[wanna240]

Nice build! Good luck.

[StatticMyke]

Havent been around here in a while.
Got the Street Faction bash bar on as well as new tail lights.
Will probably be looking at new aero for the first of the year so i can get the car a little lower. Still have a small list of other things I want to do with the car but moving a little slower right now.

Nice... Repping Hard I see

[StatticMyke]

Appreciate it homie.

That colour is awesome. Your Brother-in-law's hatch looks really nice too!

No mention that I could see, but was there much cutting/polish work needed after you painted it?

Thanks man! My brother in law actually has a coupe.

The car could probably benefit from being wheeled out but I havent yet. There is a little trash in the paint but not enough to be real concerned with it.

A few more pics just for somewhat of an update

Turbo started making some crazy noises ended up pulling the turbo and manifold, put on 3" elbow got rid of the cat and added a test pipe. Turned out turbo inlet gasket was bad. Replaced it, the manifold gasket, and new turbo elbow gasket.

Clean man.

How you like that faction bar? Have one in the rear?

What size is your radio DIN, looking to do the same thing as well.

Overall, your car looks good man.

I dig it man. Fits great. Naw just one in the front. I have no clue on the size of the radio din it was in the car when I got it. Thanks man appreciate it.

Not a whole lot has changed recently, just been driving it honestly. Before the summer planning on going with different aero and hopefully some different wheels. On a closer time frame though I'm going to redo the exhaust. It hangs really low scrapes on everything and looks like Ive scraped through the flex pipe so thats first on the list.

Here is a recent video of the car.

Well havent posted in a while figure I would give a little update on the car. Not a lot has changed but changes are in the works.

Trans starting grinding so ended up picking up a used KA trans got it installed and it was worse than my original. Ended up pulling it back out and finding another one that I'm swapping in right now. Have to find some better nuts for the driveshaft the ole OE ones are starting to round. Then need to fill it with fluid and were ready to roll.

Decided to go Rocket Bunny but sticking with the current overs I have on the car.

Mike, I just stumbled upon your thread while searching for VIS BN aero haha. This car has come such a long way. I read the entire thread & finally realized it was your car when the Rezax got put on hahaha

Haha thanks homie. I should probably update this sometime. I rarely hop on here for anymore than looking for parts.

[StatticMyke]

Just figured I would go ahead and give an update. Not a whole lot new going on but did end up getting another KA trans in the car and am having a few minor issues with going 1st to reverse and back being a little notchy or having to pump the clutch a could times for it to want to go into first smoothly. Not exactly sure whats up with that. I have replaced clutch master slave and now trans twice and the issue is still there. Granted its minimal but it is what it is, Here are a couple new pics of the car how it site now.
