Just went through this entire thread. Very nice work dude, the entire build is awesome!

Hot diggity dog! Luv it...not a fan of the bashbars blockn intercoolers, cause im a fanboi n luv seeing big front mounts lmao(doesnt sound right) but this car is minty!!

This thing is rad! The headliner is just the icing on the cake for me. Well done!

Thanks man, appreciate the kind words.

I mean theres plenty of intercooler to go around...besides factory bumper support wouldn't allow for 4" intercooler.

Thank you sir, appreciate it.

Update 12/3/20

A good buddy of mine was selling his old set of S15 rear seats for cheap so I picked them up. I used my bissell to clean them first, then used fabric accents dye on them and they came out stellar. So much I am going to do my R32 seats next.

Added in an additional relay for the fuel pump signal using the stock signal wire for fuel pump on to be my trigger and used larger wire going to the walbaro 525.

https://i.imgur.com/uO2YCoVl.jpg

Rear speakers are in and deck lid installed. Started to clean up the tail light wiring in the trunk with new push clip zipties and nice fabric sheathing.

I purchased a broken yet authentic Nismo old logo RHD S14 gauge holder from a member on here. I tossed the 100mm gauge and my awesome buddy at BreakBeat made me a custom adapter to fit my 52mm Defi boost gauge. I used JB weld to reinforce the fractured area, then used JB weld to put M5.8 nuts on the inside to give me mounting areas for tabs to secure the holder to the door card.

Finally got around to getting the Sikky sway bar and CTSV calipers powder coated. I took a risk on the color and it came out so perfectly I couldn't have taken credit for it going any better.

https://i.imgur.com/sCee57al.jpg

https://i.imgur.com/3XHqDI0l.jpg

https://i.imgur.com/0TkQt9Pl.jpg

Immediately of course, I had to rebuild them and get them laced up with new stickers and lines.

https://i.imgur.com/dz798r9l.jpg

https://i.imgur.com/USZJgVOl.jpg

The CTSV calipers came loaded with rotors and pads in good condition, just some surface rust on the rotors from sitting. So I took them to work and sandblasted them then turned them on my machine. Rotors are now good to go for install.

I went ahead and purchased a Greddy Gracer lip for the front end since I feel it needs some more flare to go with the rest of the body. Going to pick that up Saturday and then get JP to paint it along with my caliper crossover tubes. Goal is to get the kouki rear bumper/valances, brakes, sway bar all on this weekend. Well see how it goes :keke:

Nice update!! Always been a fan of the greddy lip, I'm excited to see it on your car

whered you get the push style zipties?!?!

Got a good update for you don?t worry :coolugh:

Amazon, eBay, just about anywhere online.

Update 12/12/20

I wanted to get to this sooner but Zilvia is having malfunctions making me worry I'm writing this all for nothing :wtf:

Anyways...

Sikky sway bar is mocked up for now, loving the contrast in colors now. Had a friend make me up some purple Sikky stickers to still show some love.

https://i.imgur.com/8betAkjl.jpg

https://i.imgur.com/NuT3tp0l.jpg

JDM rear bumper finally installed, absolutely loving the look with the rest of the aero now. I do have the valances which will be going on very soon.

https://i.imgur.com/t3Iiul9l.jpg

https://i.imgur.com/ajMmHVrl.jpg

As promised...the Greddy Gracer lip arrived. However, what would you expect from my build yet if you didn't see something brand new get cut up? I knew from the start the center would have to be altered due to the bash bar and intercooler setup.

https://i.imgur.com/g3zcfRLl.jpg

After the chop shop, JP blessed me once again with the purple man eater treatment.

https://i.imgur.com/KH6y8cGl.jpg

Flashback: To when I installed the G2 Carbon CTSV swap brackets. The fitment is horrible, puts caliper far off the rotor contact area by a long shot. Decided to switch back to CTSVswap brackets since now on GKTech V4 knuckles. I did in fact have to still modify both the CTSVswap bracket and the GKTech V4 knuckles to fit the setup correctly. Overall its minimal in areas not stressed and the outcome is exactly as I wanted. Also wrapped the Chasebays tucked brake lines in the vulcan black sleeve to keep everything nice and protected.

https://i.imgur.com/jppldOBl.jpg

https://i.imgur.com/QurfVTcl.jpg

Gracer lip got installed tonight! Ran out of light for better front photos. Maybe tomorrow when the other brake setup goes on.

https://i.imgur.com/JTSTXT5l.jpg

https://i.imgur.com/LseQnbyl.jpg

Also got my Rize Titanium bonnet prop rod in, many thanks to Jesse Streeter for coming through.

https://i.imgur.com/w48zxEel.jpg

https://i.imgur.com/Iy5kq8sl.jpg

Plan of attack for tomorrow is the passenger side brake setup then I can put Dot 4 fluid in and bleed both the brake and clutch system.

MIGHT BE ABLE TO MOVE IT AROUND THIS WEEKEND!!!!! :gives:

Need an update

Oh man I?ve updated a lot just not here, LS gets no love from the purist fucks haha. I?ll get some on here, it?s running and street tuned. Should be ready for streets by next month.

Car is awesome! Well done! :bigok:

Update 1/2/21

Lets get some more LS hate stewing in here shall we. I was extremely satisfied with the way my rear S15 seats turned out so I decided to give my driver R32 seat a go.

https://i.imgur.com/ycOfwTUl.jpg

https://i.imgur.com/zTrpg4ol.jpg

https://i.imgur.com/glNPesol.jpg

Decided to go with some neat S14 optional goodies now that I'm on the other side of the center console. S14 knee pads :keke: Only have one on here, working on the other.

https://i.imgur.com/s2Z7f0Tl.jpg

https://i.imgur.com/9U8nnyAl.jpg

I've been working non stop on wiring all the additional lighting package, switches, and just other misc stuff. Found a cool switch off amazon for the louvers and installed the Breakbeat garage pod holder on my cluster surround.

Got a new clutch bushing for the pedal since mine was missing, huge improvement on the feel I cant wait to take it out.

https://i.imgur.com/Zx1B4Rnl.jpg

Bought some STI rear calipers off Bernie and immediately had to destroy them. Sandblasted them at work, blew them apart and will drop them off with the roll cage for the final powder coating.

https://i.imgur.com/8dptcFel.jpg

https://i.imgur.com/Rw0RZjHl.jpg

https://i.imgur.com/CZYB1lal.jpg

Somehow I managed to impress some people over at K&N so they sponsored me in a way? Sent me a bunch of free stuff in exchange for a few photos. Either way, pretty cool others appreciate the work involved.

https://i.imgur.com/UI6wh5hl.jpg

https://i.imgur.com/EQYDxjll.jpg

Heres how the car currently sits. I have got the base map loaded on however I am waiting for 1000cc injectors in the mail from Link. Aiming to get an alignement this week and then I will be finally testing it around my street. I had to extend many of the custom rear tail harnesses that I got from a buddy since I have no idea where they mounted the show mode switches and with all of them connected it would have placed it right in the center of the trunk.

Tomorrow I will finish the tail light install, gauge cluster surround, and run the louver power switch in the center console area. After I finish the tails, I can install fatmat in the trunk area and put my lrb speed trunk floor pan in. It’s just small things at this point until I can get the car fully on the road and final tune.

https://i.imgur.com/ZIPYkdDl.jpg

Is this a real silvia now then?? LOL

Na haha, but the purists can eat their fucking heart out :cj:

This is looking great! So jealous of those louvers

Thank you man, appreciate the kind words. The louvers and sills were less than perfect but they cleaned up nicely and the new EL strips make a world of difference.

Update 1/5/21

Small update photo wise but I was able to make huge progress on the drivability of the car this weekend.

I finally lengthened all the tail light harnesses for the show mode switch boxes and got the trunk interior completely setup and ready to go . It was an absolute mess so I feel a huge weight lifted from me now that this is done.

https://i.imgur.com/QJcLqdgl.jpg

My Breakbeat garage gauge pod for the AFR looks fantastic so happy I was able to grab some before he ended his venture for now in our chassis. All the lights are now functional so I will be installing the driver seat Thursday along with the steering column surround. I cut my brand new RHD dash cover for the HUD and its being hemmed should be back soon.

https://i.imgur.com/IxkrFQ1l.jpg

Alignment is this Thursday, then the car will get off the wood blocks and first drive around the block will be this weekend!!!!!!

Hell yeah!! Congrats!

Dude this build is insane! Wow, huge amount of work! I really dig the color as well.

Also, thanks for the small tidbit on the clutch pedal bushing! I didnt know that was a thing, my pedal has always had play and I didnt know why

Thanks man, car has some sort of spark issue I suspect I have to figure out.

Thank you! No problem I try to share as much as I can with whoever needs it on here.

Update 1/10/21

So I was able to get the mobile guy to come out and do my alignment. Car is now straight and wheel is in correct orientation.

https://i.imgur.com/bCrhZmhl.jpg

https://i.imgur.com/nLmWqxil.jpg

I got my dash cover back from the seamstress, got the hole for the HUD fixed up.

https://i.imgur.com/HZphUvIl.jpg

Installed a nice radio in the car once I got the replacement OEM factory female plugs and cigarette lighter plug since that was one of the areas on my clip they cut off.

https://i.imgur.com/P84yXjLl.jpg

Spent most of yesterday finishing up the dash and getting the rest of the trims installed. Dont mind the older shift knob, its only for testing this thing around until its ready for the new knob. The louver switch bezel arrived from an awesome dude I found who 3D prints little parts for different cars.

https://i.imgur.com/lorfovjl.jpg

https://i.imgur.com/vYZs9oll.jpg

https://i.imgur.com/TP9AhVzl.jpg

Car has some sort of starting issue at the moment, its cranking and I have fuel pressure but I'm not sure on spark. I will dig into it more tomorrow once I go back but I am really trying to get it driving by Monday, for now here are how most of the setup looks.

https://i.imgur.com/okAx2CPl.jpg

https://i.imgur.com/PWijdjDl.jpg

Update 1/21/21

The damn thang finally made it out on its own power and it felt amazing!!! Obviously it has some hiccups that need to be sorted out but just to feel the cars new power band and all the modifications that were made after this last year and a half.

https://i.imgur.com/7GFXZrPl.jpg

https://i.imgur.com/qzOZZFpl.jpg

https://i.imgur.com/xkhDWlbl.jpg

The new Bosch 1000cc injectors finally showed up, I installed them yesterday along with the tophats to fit my setup.

https://i.imgur.com/nyac4bpl.jpg

https://i.imgur.com/nhpz7bZl.jpg

Also got around to installing the other portion of the knee pad set to the door panel. Using 3M tape it feels extremely sturdy. Will have to keep an eye on it as the days go by to make sure it doesn't sag or fall.

https://i.imgur.com/IMmIPSZl.jpg

Car will be getting the updated map for the new injectors tomorrow and my tuner will adjust it off the data log thats been recording in my little drives. Ill update this if I see any bumps otherwise its back on road :coold:

Wow. Congrats, brotha! Nice to see it out in the open and driving.
The purple paint really pops. Fantastic.

This is sick!

Awesome. Been waiting for this one to finish.

Thank you! I thought so too it?s awesome how it looks completely different during the day and night.

Thank you! I still have to finish up the interior but thrilled to be on home stretch. The altezza is up next on the chop block haha.

Me too man! Haha once I can drive it around more I?ll be able to figure out everything. The car needs to go back to the body shop and the tune will be in February if all goes as planned. Rear brakes and cage powder coat work is up next on things to do.

incredible build! your attention to detail is awesome, great to see it on the road!

And barney is out on the streets now lol

Thank you man!! I?m thrilled myself! Hopefully I?ll get some quality photos and no more iPhone potato lens.

Bring your Pokemon and we?ll snap some pics this weekend :snoop:

Update 1/22/21

Car got the map updated for the 1000cc injectors this morning and all went well! Data logging is turned on and this weekend I?ll be giving it all the smoke. Also gonna aim to get the rear valances mounted up. Will have more updates soon :).

Nice dude, came together really well. Love it

Congrats dude! That first trip to the gas station must have felt absolutely incredible!

Amazing build man. Do you remember by any chance the tire size of your sa3r setup?

Thank you man, appreciate it.

Felt pretty good aside from the popping and banging lol.

245/40 on 9.5" wide rims.

Update 2/23/21

Got the roll cage powder coated finally, install was just as fun as last time except I did my best to remove the paint on the surfaces that slide so ease of install. Loving the contrast of the colors together really pops in the sunlight.

Drove the car to my buddies alignment shop to go over the car on a lift and redo the alignment since the mobile guy was absolute shit.

https://i.imgur.com/S0oAMfJl.jpg

https://i.imgur.com/j70UCdTl.jpg

Finally got the missing bracket for the UKDM oh shit handle so I quickly stripped the rust and painted it to get it installed.

https://i.imgur.com/bhMBj3Bl.jpg

The car finally made it to the dyno, on 6lbs of boost we made 500HP/506TQ, however we had to stop cause of my wideband not working properly and also I keep melting my plug wires on #3 and #6 due to the long tubes so I am in the process of working on correcting that. The car drives like a bat out of hell at the current setting, I will have a video posted soon I hope.

https://i.imgur.com/D2ZR37Jl.jpg

On the way home from the dyno I blew my rack seals so I have removed the rack and will be rebuilding it this week at work. If all goes well car will be back at body shop for final buff and color issues.

What did the mobile guy do to the car???

Wow . Best build on Zilvia. Was not a fan of S14.5's till now.

Long time since I have seen a build on here with this much detail and patience

Lol you just want to stir the pot...okay here we go :coold:

Thanks man, I forget to update this cause of course no one wants to hear about an LS anymore. I try to stick to updates on the chassis side since its so played out :rofl:

Thanks you sir! I appreciate the kind words.

Alright let's update!

Update 3/9/20

Welp after the dyno as I mentioned the rack had blown out from I think just old seals. Still in process of measuring my spare racks and trying to see if any wear internally before I slap another one together. However, that being said I also found a few areas that were literally cooking so I have spent time on fire proofing things.

Sikky motor mounts starting to bubble, even with my headers coated! I am not going to say anything bad about Sikky, but they should have mentioned this or made a note about it.

https://i.imgur.com/upfijATl.jpg

Added DEI floor and tunnel which is 10mm thick and some metal zip ties.

https://i.imgur.com/utrEjETl.jpg?1

Also added to areas under neath that didn't have any already..primarily on header collectors.

https://i.imgur.com/Fe11qbul.jpg

https://i.imgur.com/ggSY6Knl.jpg

Calipers are back from powder coat, absolutely love the color.
Got the left side on and installed with powerstop track day pads and new lines. Will finish the other side soon.

https://i.imgur.com/w1rrqo5l.jpg

https://i.imgur.com/U4ZWY19l.jpg

https://i.imgur.com/XLnIkLll.jpg

Also if you see above photo is where OC mobile alignment came out and hit my fender with my wheel, I was pissed but ending up in jail isn't worth it. Long story short the guy was not even gonna tell me he did it, not a professional and I most certainly do not recommend him to anyone hes absolute garbage. Good thing I have a badass friend who paints <3

My old cusco c pillar bar stripped the threads on the heim joints so I went with a solid one piece design from TechnoToyTuning. Long wait but worth it.

https://i.imgur.com/QCJArGyl.jpg

https://i.imgur.com/9ndfJPsl.jpg

Once the car goes back to body shop I will be having the rear pulled slightly to fit these Mickey Thompson street ss 275/45. Yes I know its big...No I don't care if you think its gonna look bad, like a drag car or not be stanced out. After driving it home on the 245/40 I quickly realized I need meat....

https://i.imgur.com/RY1jSa5l.jpg

https://i.imgur.com/HWZJyj4l.jpg

Also wanted to squeeze as much out of the V3 blower as possible without over spinning the impeller. Went with a ZPE Griptec 3.12" pulley and a new belt which brought the window of tension dead center so I am happy with that. Laced it up with those new Dressupbolts M6 allen heads, added a K&N sock for any accidental moisture.

https://i.imgur.com/KRyhHXol.jpg

https://i.imgur.com/s0vVYNcl.jpg

I am just gonna finish the rack this week and try to get the rest of the small things sorted like dying the other seat and finishing the interior. I know on the rear panels with cages people slide it through the panel but I have added things in those open spaces and wanted to be able to remove them if any issues or need be. So as much as it pains me to say I am going with LRB rear panels since they'll be easier to remove. I plan to modify them so they cover more of the rear wheel well by adding another piece that bolts to it and then powder coating them a flat black so they blend in.

Can you snag a pic of the T3 C-pillar bar installed?

wait a sec, you mean to tell me this car was champagne gold...........and you painted it purple. i sad now

Of course, they sent too short of bolts so I went and got some locally. Should be in this weekend.

Yep :hey:

Update 4/1/21

Got the T3 bar in, it fits well and looks way more discrete than any other C pillar bar I've seen.

https://i.imgur.com/ndBJfMIl.jpg

Got the car out finally of the garage and on its way back to the body shop for final changes. Of course...gas station pictures must happen.

https://i.imgur.com/byUAoivl.jpg

JP already started on the PDR in all the smaller areas.

I love seeing updates on this build!

Update 4/19/21

I apologize for not updating this, Zilvia going down has been a real pain and worry but I will get this one in. So many things so let's go!

Decided I needed some rake for my setup.... Mickey Thompson Street S/S drag radials 275/45/18 :rofl:

Loading up the car Thursday and headed to Vegas for LS Fest west, if anyone is in the area or going be sure to say whats up! Will have more updates soon.

This car needs to be on the front page of Super Street or D sport magazine.
Do they even do magazines anymore?
Either way it's an absolute masterpiece!

That license plate hitting below the belt, man haha.

Looking good! Nice to see you enjoying all your hard work you put into the car

Loving the color combo and attention to little things. Also very much would love to take that Tomei 3 point brace off your hands if you ever decide to sell.

Thank you man! I appreciate it! Thats very nice of you to say, maybe one day but I think all things are online media at this point right?

Haha its all in good fun man. I respect all motor swaps and those VET boys are wicked. Thank you man I got some more stuff on the way!

Haha thanks dude, I will keep your name on the list. :cool:

Update 4/28/20

Update on the next revision. I have acquired an S15 wing a while back from my buddy and have toyed with changing the Kouki, I will need a new trunk and need to modify the wing further but I want to be able to swap between the two. More on this to come soon...

Plans now are just taking care of the small things and making adjustments here and there. Finally time to drive the car and enjoy it with all the time it's been down. I will be starting my Altezza build on a separate thread soon.

congrats on the hoonigan shoot

I told you! It does deserve to be on a front page feature, well is on Hoonigan's front page so even better! Congrats!!!

Shout out to you, big dog! The Hoonigans feature was a treat.
Your slab definitely deserves the spotlight. Looking swole and I appreciate the color coordinated gauges haha

Thank you man! Appreciate it!!

Hahah you?re too kind man. It was a blast, Larry is such a nice guy and even cooler in person so really cool to be able to say I spent some time with him.

LMAO!!! Literally spit out my drink hahaha. Thank you dude, was waiting for someone to catch the gauges. What can I say purple is my thing. It?s cool people enjoy it man, I of course enjoy the shit out of this car but and I built it with that in mind but it?s really humbling to see people tell me they?ve been watching from the start and cool to see in person. I?m gonna post some of the Larry Chen photos from the shoot, the dude has a vision and he?s one of the best for auto for a reason.

Any plans to do rear fenders so you don't need so much forward rake to clear the tire?

I?m really against over fenders, but I do agree that the profile is too large. That?s the smallest Mickey they make in 18?. I want to move to Hoosier 275/35, as these are 275/45. That would give me more room to bring things back and have less rub over large bumps.

Update 6/3/21

Here are some of my favorites from the Larry Chen Hoonigan video shoot, it was such an awesome experience meeting him. Hes even cooler in person than he is online and I think that speaks to his character.

I have purchased a few items I will address on the next post with the super charger bracket and working through some bugs. Also on the lookout for a hole free s14 trunk if anyone has one.

Update 7/7/21

Sorry I havent updated this in a while, it's been so great to get the car out and about. I was having trouble with belt alignement so I remade some of the spacers for the bracket and changed an idler and tensioner pulleys to aftermarket ones that had better bearings and more defined shoulders to keep belt on.

Got tired of how the R32 seats felt and needed something that held me better and looked better honestly. I went with Status since its here locally and the quality and customization is what drew me in. So far zero complaints other than I need to make custom mounts since the planted are still a little higher than wanted.

Also changed around some some of the cars stuff since I caught the titanium bug so exhaust tip was first...

Then I decided to change my intake over to a Fast 92mm and NW 92mm throttle body. Vibrant HD clamps and titanium piping for the charge pipes and down the worm hole we go...

I do have some big updates for this thing coming very soon. I changed my tire setup and am going to add somethings to the physical appearance of the car. So far the tune is set up for FD long beach.

Relax, it's not a show car...
 

Great update

Great build

What are you going to do with the R32 seat??

I?m looking for the US passenger seat

Very nice setup engine bay setup! Where did you get the AN fittings from?

Thanks man! Actually a buddy bought the set and is being nice and letting me use the passenger seat until my other arrives.

Thank you! Majority of them and all the purple are from Color fittings, a newer company but building steam fast.

Alignment and getting more parts installed soon. My innovative has died completely and it?s time to put the AEM in. Also just got a GoPro so I?ll be trying to get some video footage soon. The hardest part will be the editing but I?ll see what I can do.

Update 7/20/21

Finally got around to sorting out my extension piece for the NOS Tomei BMC stopper I had. Reason I had for making the extension was from deleting the brake booster. I had my buddy Ryan cut it out on the burn table and then once it was smoothed out I had it anodized locally.

After driving around on the "Planted" rails, I shortly realized they simply were not low enough. So I had my buddy help me make a set of custom rails. Unfortunately I have to make another once the second seat comes in.

Fitment came out fantastic, even though I have some slight impressions being made in the door cards from the seats. Will remove rails soon and get them powder coated.

Went down in tire size in the back and had it lowered and aligned. Moved from 275/45 to a 275/35 profile, so far its better and the ride is much smoother no more rubbing.

Should have more updates on this soon and some announcements on the cars status.

How has that tucked chase bays rad been?

My only complain is burping is a pain cause of how low it is, even with the remote reservoir I usually have to put the front on blocks. Other than that I love it, sleek and fits well.

Im glad you changed the rear tires. That shit was looking ridiculous imo lol

Looks much, much better
