A Build from where most cars aren't cool. *RIP 1JZ Cefiro*. R34 Street Full Tune
 
Started off with cars about 3 years ago, I'm currently 19 from toronto ontario and here is my build.
Most cars up here don't do it right, so fellow friends and I try to hold it down our best.

Started out with this thing.

then did standard teenager 240 procedure.

then broke a battle and stumbled upon a pair of these.

got sick of being in highschool and not being able to source a matching pair
so traded for these

then traded those four for 8 of these

then drifted the car alot

theeeeen built the car over winter and drifted it alot.

chassis was ready for death and I was bored of owning a car I didnt enjoy street driving. The racecar novelty wore off.

I had been on the prowl for a clean 180 or 240 chassis but wasn't very excited and was overall bored of these cars. Had a "next year" chat with a friend of mine and we came to the conclusion I should buy this Cefiro shell that had been sitting up for sale for a long long time. Ended up putting a deposit on the car 3 days later.

About a day after I trailered the car home a friend and I went halves on some shop space. Small but in budget and works.

Refreshed racecar suspension for cefiro

Scrapped the s13
http://i925.photobucket.com/albums/a...Y/_DSC1824.jpg

Test fitted Orgin kit.
http://i925.photobucket.com/albums/a...Y/_DSC1828.jpg

Got a set of eurolines in 18x9/10 +30, was never satisfied with the sizing and were more of an impulse.
http://i925.photobucket.com/albums/a..._DSC1831-1.jpg

the initial plan was an easy as pie throw my racecar SR in and bam!
Then I realized how ass backwards it is to put a 4 cylinder 0 tq motor in a big sedan with a 6cyl engine bay. Rb's are cool and stuff but to have a 25 to my liking I would need another $1000+ for a forward facing manifold etc.
So I picked up a soarer 1jzgte R154 dealy.
http://i925.photobucket.com/albums/a...Y/_DSC1895.jpg

Made some custom lines

the s13 in the dumpster looks like a toy. great build so far

s13silvia_R 12-06-2011 09:36 PM

God damn and I ain't even catholic.
This is one heavy ass build, the gartimers are more suitable for the cefiro.

deathrace2000 12-06-2011 10:12 PM

I like the way this is going so far.

TsukubaSpec 12-06-2011 10:24 PM

Awesome work man, you got those Gartmaier's from vr wheels right ? i had my eyes on these, if you ever wanna sell them let me know.

Copilot911 12-06-2011 10:32 PM

Wow awesome build man, great to see a fellow canadians build up here.

Zacho 12-06-2011 10:33 PM

Love this. I have a laurel and these two cars are rare to see documented. Keep it up.

Mitsubayati 12-06-2011 10:36 PM

Since you are 19, may I ask how you afford all of this? Where'd you get those welding skills?

Nice build though man. I would have not been able to dump a car like that. I'd probably be too attached haha

95KA-Turbo 12-06-2011 10:46 PM

I was expecting the OP to be from Florida when I opened this, LOL.


Needless to say this thread didn't go how I expected at all! Looks awesome so far, I'm excited to see it all done!

Bob_Sagat 12-06-2011 11:29 PM

Too cool.

killer240 12-07-2011 12:40 AM

good choice on wheels, love em cerberus. looking fore more updates soon, this is my first time subscribing to a cefiro build. good luck and have fun

Walperstyle 12-07-2011 12:41 AM

You have a lot of talent in your build, and I envy the work you are putting in, but I still don't know why people import them to Canada. I simply Hate Cefiro's. They always reminded me of a silvia's fatter uglier sister. A lot of people from the US will love it simply for being JDM.

However

That being said, your car is going to be probably one of the coolest ones on this Continent, and if its clean, you will for sure get featured in magazines. My respect for this car and your build go far beyond anyone's expectations.

Keep up the good work!

I thought the same thing, haha. Awesome build so far- motivates me to seal up the holes in my bay!

SnakeKack 12-07-2011 10:17 PM

Did you really scrap that S13 chassis? If so what was wrong with it?
