Hybrid Audio Silvia Spec GTR - Free orgasm, chec this out

[joefro21]

Probably one of the finest 240's in existence, purely my opinion, but apparently some judge's think so about the build as well. Plz, comments, opinion's about this free orgasm, would like to read some comments about this beast of a beauty :)

Agreed. Xzibit worked on the interior

[BOROSUN]

not my cup of tea.

btw there's a media section.

[Broadfield]

The car is a VERY specific, purpose built SQi vehicle... it should not be judged for anything more than what it is. With that being said, it does it better than any other vehicle, EVER.

I posted this vehicle in the interior thread earlier this year... there is a lot of man hours that went into this thing... a lot! Scott is my boy... great guy, good family man and builds the best car audio speakers ever manufactured. I am honored to be able to sell Hybrid Audio speakers.

[projectRDM]

I don't see how a car can be gay. You may not like, but there's no other car out there with the attention to detail shown here. I personally assembled the entire suspension, steering, and brakes on it and just the level of cleanliness there can't be measured. Every single piece was taken apart, cleaned, powdercoated, then reassembled. We spent easily sixteen hours just measuring, ordering, then later machining the hardware to put it all together. There isn't a single hex head bolt anywhere, everything is cap head, stainless steel. Like or not you have to respect that level of dedication.

[rb25det powered S14]

sexy from the outside but as soon as you get into the interior, it turns into a all male orgy with teamed up with a few STD infested new york honda owners.. Wanking V-TAK all over eachothers faces.. but from an audio view, its a nice setup.. so i guess its all in the eye of the viewer..

[pandaroo]

i hate cars like this. yes it has incredible craftsmanship which i can appreciate but it has a split personality. the car has a motor capable of over 1000 horsepower which means business, but on the other hand it has a retarded interior loaded to the brim with audio equipment, and doesnt even have a back window wtf? if you wana load down a vehicle with this shit stick with a escalade or something. not a two door sports car.

[Matej]

There isn't a single hex head bolt anywhere, everything is cap head, stainless steel.
Are cap head bolts supposed to better than hex head?

I have always wondered because I see a lot of aftermarket companies use them, but I find them to always strip much faster than regular bolts, plus allen keys are a pain to work with and I feel like I cannot use them to get a bolt as tight as I would a hex bolt with a socket wrench. Also, the head of cap head bolts does not cover as much area as the head of a regular hex bolt, which is another disadvantage I see in them.

By the way, I am not criticizing this specific car, I am genuinely curious about bolts.

That's cool, I bet there are plenty of auto audio/electronics forums that would love it. But to me its the same as some one paying very close attention to detail in wrapping their interior trim in comic book pages and zebra striping everything else.

[KOME]

That interior looks like horse shit not horse leather..... didn't even know people used horse leather.

People think that putting a lot of weight and stereo in a 240SX is 'ruining' it, seriously? It's a $3000 car at best in OE form, it's not like he's using a Ferarri or something super expensive and purpose built. And people build SUVs with big blocks, turbos, nitrous, are they wrong for doing that? To each his own.

I don't see any differences, Scott just has always liked using them because they're unique. I torqued everything to OE spec though using quality metric sockets, not just allen wrenches, and there's flat and lock washer where needed.
When he decided to do them all throughout the car it really was a big decision since the cost is insane. A lot of places won't custom machine bolts, or they'll only do it in runs of 100 or so, and the ones readily available are the same way in most cases. I don't know the numbers but I'd figure there's $2000 just in hardware on the car. Some of these kids don't even have that in their entire car.

I guess you over looked the $8000+ Engine in the car.

I do have to agree on the split personality thing, yet I somehow love the fact that this thing can go either route and run a true auto show, showing off both sides of it's personality to near perfection. It can show up at a regular auto show where performance is the key, yet roll on to sound show without skipping a beat. I have to admit, both sides of the split personality were pulled off in one car.

[Cheesy Doriftos]

not my style, but the craftsmanship is exquisite

[foxystyle]

Poor horses. I always loved this car but I just noticed after call the money thrown into it..they couldn't xbuy a better strut bar than that Megan racing/eBay looking bar? Cusco at least should've been inside.

SMH :duh: mannn u whylin son. that engine bay alone eats ur car....... lol that touch screen is dope..but the rest of that car's interior is FUGLY :boink: like u said to each his own..... but that shyt has SWAG

[whiterps13]

Although not practical in any sense of the word, I can appreciate this car for what it is. Hearing Hybrid Audio stuff with my own ears, I can attest that there is nothing out there better. Nothing.

I would love to jam out in this thing for days.

[projectRDM]

I guess you over looked the $8000+ Engine in the car.

That's not what I said. Learn how to read. The car in stock form, a 1995 SE, is worth $3000 today. True he bought it brand new and has invested countless dollars past that, but to build the same thing today would only require $3000 (or less) to buy the platform to build on. Not really ruining anything since that's throw away money. Kids like you probably invest even less than that to buy their car.

I don't read ebonics, but what does this car have to do with my car? I don't even own a 240 anymore.

[whiterps13]

Threads like this probably remind you why you dont come on here anymore.

[s14unimog]

You gotta admit. That is pretty damn impressive. So is it an original Silvia or is he just calling it that now?

Yes, that car originally cost around $3000 Mr. Obvious. But that still means jack shit to the point that the car is NO LONGER a $3000 dollar car with an $8000 engine in it.


And isn't it a bit contradictory to be investing a lot of money upfront in stock cars that in your mindset are a dime a dozen?

[Prime]

For all the people talking about how ugly the interior is, or how "unnecessary" the audio is and such garbage... It could have no sound, no interior, with a stock seat, steering wheel, and cluster ziptied to the dash support and still be cleaner than almost any other car here, with more power, and likely better handling.

It's one thing to say "I don't like it" or "It's not my style". But the insults to a vehicle which represents a standard of quality that high?

Nitpicking jealous haters, the lot of you. This isn't an argument, it's a statement. Any who choose to reply to it or get upset over it, feel free to enjoy your guilty conscience alone.

lmfao you're right though, even a fucking zip tied cluster gauge wouldn't make this thing ugly.

[harrypotter]

I like the car but do not understand calling it a Silvia spec GT-R. Think that would mean it would be a skyline with a SR in it.

Really want to see video of the blackout windows.

Why are people still commenting on the name, he could have called it a ford gtr for all I care, it is a damn 95 240 w/rb26, who cares what he called it?

[Fred Allen Burge]

Wow, lots of jealous hate in here! I can appreciate the car for the work he's put into it and the results he achieved, "highest scoring car ever recorded in any organized competition, in any format and in any country" ???!!! Nice!

[blingbling]

This thread is why Zilvia sucks.

[JDM Sil4ty]

This car is cool. i don't understand how people could hate on dedication. the people hating probably have nicer cars than this and can talk about 'taste' and 'style' because they have it on their car.

Noobs in here can STFU or GTFO.

[azsr20det]

is this the one with the electrochromatic window tint?
i didnt watch the whole vid

if it IS
i MUST KNOW where i can get it.
not for my s13 though
shit would be ILL on my is350

[Metal Angel]

"We shoe-horned a Skyline RB26 engine" lol. I'm sorry, but I cannot take this car seriously. The interior is absolutely hideous, from an artistic standpoint. The lines of the interior conflict with the lines of the body, and the steering column looks like an erect horse penis. I'm not saying it didn't take a lot of work, and the craftsmanship is definitely there, but the critical eye of an artist was obviously absent during the interior build.

[harrypotter]

I think you are SERIOUSLY missing the point. This car was built for sound quality and install... period. It wasn't built to win car shows, it wasn't built to win at the drag strip, it wasn't built for you, it wasn't built to be posted on Zilvia. It was built to win every sanctioned car audio competition it goes to. It doesn't even get driven... it gets transported in a trailer. So if having an "erect horse penis" looking steering column helps with the acoustics in the car, then it's doing its job.

[SWAT Team S14]

Anybody who puts this much time & dedication into a car is cool in my book.

That being said, it just isn't my cup of tea. My problem is that it's a trailer queen...cars are meant to be driven. And there is no way this car is driven anywhere, except on & off the trailer. It's just way too clean & impractical for driving purposes. Not to mention there's no way its a legal street car anymore with the interior the way it is & you wouldn't be allowed on any track the way it sits either.

Just my 2 cents, tho....it's not my car, do as you please with it.

[qwerth]

[Chrischeezer]

Dude has the camera focused on the engine and turbo...
and says "929hp" .. BAHAHAHAHA!!! its a 60 trim.. relax.

the car is disgusting, dude is embarrassing himself.

I knew there would be plenty o hating but damn You all make liquid nitrogen feel warm lol, and to dude above, who says you gotta have huge freakin turbo to build a high horsepower motor, I'm sure it was prob "crate" type where it was built for him or sum shit like that, I dunno, but how can you say he's not getting 900 horse if you don't know the engine internals, comp bla bla bla, only based on the premise that its a 60 trim turbonetics

thanks all for comments btw, didn't think it would be this heated but keep em coming, I'm enjoying reading your comments n opinions

[420sx]

way to fuck that car with that interior. lol at those sparco's too

[starion1991]

At apx. 2:07 the car became completely *Snip*.

My balls itch

[s13 loverr]

Wow, I cannot believe this car is actually getting bashed. It is almost more unbelievable than how much work was put in that car. I can recall THOUSANDS of 240's that have dildo shift knobs, primed paint, and zipties and they didn't get bashed this much.

It's not to your taste/it doesn't have any artistic thought? How tasteful is a 3 foot long rainbow shift knob?! Come on even if its not to your specific liking at least appreciate the creativity, time, and money that went into that car. You guys are mocking a car that is comparable to a super car and yet applauding every other nissan that comes to the line with random parts slapped on here and there. Ok, I can see having different tastes, but who mocks a ferrari because it has bright red paint? I don't like bright red in your face colors but that uniqueness and quality level I am not going to say anything bad about it.

Who can truly say that would not like to own that car? I mean really if you could have that car would you say no because it is not to your taste? All I can do is sit there and wonder how in the hell they managed to make something of that level. I have no creativity whatsoever I don't have the time and I don't have the money to make a car like that. It is ridiculous to design a car from your dreams and make it real with every single line from your imagination. I am pretty sure I would be better off with a pack of wolves then jumping into a pit with you guys as critics.

[badboy6686]

I sold this guy some z32 rear brakes back in 05, his last name has someone stuck with me.

I wonder if they're on this car? lol

its called Air!
volumetric efficiency!!
Ok... for arguments sake lets say its stroked out to 2.8l (doubt It!)
it would have to run about 50psi to make 1100hp. that turbo falls out of efficiency at about 25 it would need 2 of those turbo's maxed out! and some monster fuel system

It's just frustrating when you work so hard on a real car, trying to make the small amounts of power without breaking, and you have some jerk that's like " yeah.. thats right... a Japanese skyline engine producing 1000hp" when its obviously a fukin NOPI car. That car useless! and FAKE!

Doesn't matter how much work was put in it. if something sucks.... it sucks. thats it.

99% builds on this forum are functional! made to preform, enlighten or inspire skill... push others to go further and do better, bring something new to the table and progress.

This build has nothing but money in it, and lots of it.

I'm not really sure what your problem is or why you are so bent out of shape. That car is as purpose built as you can get. It was designed to win car audio competitions and it does... end of story. So to say it's not functional is simply an incorrect statement. Is it functional for you?... NO. Is it functional for me?... NO. It's at the extreme top of what it was built to do, so naturally it's not going to be good for much else. Do you bitch about top fuel dragsters? They are also VERY purpose built machines good for one thing only.

So why is there an RB26 under the hood with tons of money dumped into it?... why the hell not! You don't want it to look like garbage when you pop the hood at a competition and see a stock KA in there. The whole thing is over the top.

I'm not sure where I said that the erect horse penis is not doing it's job. Looks like it's functioning properly to me :ddog: All I said is the interior of this car looks terrible. Craftsmanship and functionality seem to be top notch, but if you are going to put all that time and money into the interior of a car, why not make it aesthetically pleasing?

[NissanEnthus]

Broadfield there's no use getting through some "simple" minded idiots who without a doubt will ever posses the skill and knowledge to build something like this. This is a demo vehicle to show off what very few people can ever build. Money or not there is no denying the craftsmanship and dedication it took to build this. If anyone don't like it, that's fine its a given that no one has the same tastes....but for someone to keep knocking it and get so bent over it only shows how much jealousy you have that you don't have the skill or money to build an equal....
Chrischeezer get over it.....if your frustrated that your shit keeps breaking well you should go to an "inspirational" mechanic that knows what their doing....

Be careful who you're calling "simple", especially when you cannot put together a simple paragraph with proper grammar.
Everyone adoring this car is defending it for its craftsmanship, and yet I have not heard a single person who doesn't like this car deny its craftsmanship. The interior is ugly. It was put together with painstaking attention to detail, that much is obvious, but the design of the interior is awful. That is what people are criticizing. (also it's seemingly outrageous horsepower claims)

Go hate on your cars, because they will never be at this state EVER!

MY DEPENDIBLE "WORKING" CARS WILL OWN YOURS!

Torettoooooooo!!!!!!!

[Riq]

Lots of hate on both sides on this thread. Personally I don't believe the 900 hp with a 60 trim claim and the interior isn't my taste but I respect the time put into this car that was built to the owners taste, no matter how much this car seems like a f&f reject. People need to understand that this car was built to target kids, it's not built for people that are interested in a track prepped monster. It's like people that bash civic owners, it's their style. Lets try to keep some perspective, this isn't a track functional car, it's a trailer queen with a pretty engine but thats fine because that was the owners goal.

[joefro21]

All I'm saying about the engine is you can't disclaim his hp claim with just a tiny little walk over, but I'm NOT supporting his claim either. Anyways, you guys know I posted this on zilvia because most of you would only be interested in the drivetrain, suspension, etc. I didn't want the usual youtube responses and thanks again for all your comments. Seems like some people in the comments know of the owner, or might have the power to get some drivetrain/suspension specs as I'm interested. that would give us a true ball park figure of hp/torque output. so, if anyone knows anyone, I'd be interested in a posted spec sheet for that vehicle.

It wasn't built to win car shows, it wasn't built to win at the drag strip, it wasn't built for you, it wasn't built to be posted on Zilvia. It was built to win every sanctioned car audio competition it goes to. It doesn't even get driven... it gets transported in a trailer. So if having an "erect horse penis" looking steering column helps with the acoustics in the car, then it's doing its job.

Now you know WHY it was built. Out of anybody, Toby knows a thing or two about car audio (being one of the few, hand selected people that are even allowed to sell Hybrid Audio stuff). You guys would most likely shit yourselves if you got to sit in this thing for even a minute, no matter what kind of music you listen to. I have heard Hybrid Audio's lowest lines of speakers and they blow everything out of the water. I can only imagine how amazing music would sound inside this vehicle.

This thing would make Helen Keller cream.

Things I like:
Paint and body work, engine work, the interior work under the rear glass (very unique in a coupe application I thought)

Things I dislike:
The interior design and layout. I can appreciate the work that went into it, but from a visual design aspect, it was bad. I am sure seeing it and touching it in person brings up a notch, but I still think if someone was to do a custom setup like that it could have been designed to look a lot of better while still being different.

However, on the note of it being designed for sound improvement I guess my thinking is a little wrong being as it was designed for a purpose. I still think a compromise could have been made and they would have acheived a better visual design.

[raz0rbladez909]

Wasn't this car originally a dark blue? I remember seeing it in a magazine a few years ago and thought it looked familiar. Either way it has had a lot of work put into it and looks pretty damn good, interior isn't my taste but if it helps the guy win at the shows he enters then obviously someone out there likes it. It's refreshing to see something that has been well done vice all the junk boxes that are floating around here talking shit. Not everyone wants to see another illest/hellaflush nutrider.

its the blackest black!!!!! ha ha that was the lamest video ever. i like
"Don't make fun of the paint man" you know how much wet sanding went into that like 100 hrs.... Shit is REAL!

First reasonable response on either side of the debate.

[onlydrinkkoolaid]

this thread is why zilvia sucks.

its a sad truth. They should make a band feature when someone is destroying a thread yet alone such amazing craftsmanship.

[420sx]

its an opinion. everyone has one. i think the car is a big waste of money. don't care much for interior. exterior is ok, engine bay looks good, paint looks good ( and i know paint). that is MY opinion. i think 240sx/silvias are great for motorsports. audio/show/gay builds make me sad. i just feel like its a waste of money you cant drive hard. once again, my opinion and everyone has their own.

if you dont want negative feedback then DONT POST controversial topics. oh, and stop being a ricer. thanks

At least you didn't get blue balls! I always say there is something positive to be taken from every situation.

i think this picture says it all.

[murda-c]

that really is the blackest black

[Shadowhunter]

Had the same Black on my GSR. Loved it. Love the engine and dedication to the car. But I feel it's a waste of a motor. That engine should go in something that either melts tires or sets lap records. For it to not even be driven is Criminal. Otherwise the car looks nice.

lmfbao!!! now thats funny

Nice pic

Thread finally turning peaceful lol still enjoying thanx all

[DanielS14]

that black is awesome, anyone who says the car is gross is just mad..

[codyace]

Did some searching on the guy and the car, and was really shocked! Shame Zilvia guys are so quick to talk trash without having a clue...especially when this guy has been involved with 240's longer than most of us have been able to drive.

He won some mag coverage back in 99 when the car was bone stock, recieved some Super Street Coverage not to long ago too.

All in all, the car has gone through mayn changes, and each step the car has been 800% cleaner than half the junk on this forum. Nice stuff on every aspect, the qaulity is amazing.


And to whomever claimed that was a t3/t4 50 trim better re-learn how to ID turbochargers.


I'm not a fan of the current color combo on the inside (prefer the older setup: http://image.superstreetonline.com/f/8951318+w750+st0/130_0611_16_z+1995_nissan_240sx+interior_view_dash board.jpg) but that' to each his own.

I also love the black paint on it now vs the blue that used to be

ANywho, here is the old feature on it: 1995 Nissan 240sx - Hybrid Audio Technologies - Super Street Magazine (http://www.superstreetonline.com/featuredvehicles/130_0611_1995_nissan_240sx/index.html)

[joefro21]

Thanks Cody for that insightful info, I also like the black a lot more, but I guess "untreated horse leather" jacks off the judges more lol. Nowthat's how to professionally serve all the haters. I read through everyone's comments again before they come delete them and you sir, have gracefully served the liquid nitrogen a dose of heat, some cold hater's on here that won't say shit after that lol. Anyways, loving the thread and still enjoying comments, thanx all :)

[420sx]

dont get me wrong i love the attention to detail, especially super awesome custom interior that does NOT fit the car. eh.. to each his own, right?

I don't like the whole sq setup in such a beast, but to say it doesn't "fit" the car when plenty of experienced judges would probably tell you otherwise makes you probably more on the side error. You are totally correct, to each his own :)

Not to beat a dead horse, but thanks to Scott's efforts Fluidyne made a KA aluminum radiator and UR made a full pulley set. He got them to build these products when no one was doing KA upgrade parts. He's been modifying this same car since brand new in 1995, probably before half you guys were even born and the other half were old enough to even know what a car was. I don't mind seeing people bash it, but the reasoning behind it is stupid. "it's a 240SX, it's supposed to be a DrIfT TyTe CaR" is the most ignorant thing I've ever read.

Oldsmobile Cutlasses are supposed to be made for our grandparents, but you don't attack drug dealers for putting 24" chrome wheels on them and driving them, do you?

[Brentbohn]

plasma glass? any legit use for it?

[joeapple8]

I admire the craftsmanship put into this car but the interior is not my cup of tea. Great work, blood sweat and tears were put into this project from what I can see. +1

How would they even talk to a drug dealer from their parents basement?
