Sorry ice, I think you're smokin 2 much crack  <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt='

seriously, if you really want a fastback, find one and buy it, cuz it'll cost WAY less, like thousands.  Plus, even if you did do it, people would just laugh at you for not getting a fastback in the first place.  :/

If you're looking to get away from the "family car" look, do a silvia conversion with a more aggressive body kit, no one would say it looked like a family car then <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt='

Agreed, especially about the crack part <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt='

I'm gonna guess that I'm the only one who thinks the Silvia front end is cool b/c it is different,  but looks more like a 2 door Stanzerrr... family car.  Gee - maybe that's why they put the cool pop ups on the sportier looking hatchback?  Nah!

That makes two of us...  It still looks aggressive, a bit 'squintier' than the Stanza, but the family resemblance is there (and it's intentional).

I don't know why anyone would even think of doing this... I only bought a fastback because I couldn't FIND a coupe.  I like it now, but I'd still trade it for a nice silver-over-grey two tone coupe in a second.

Remember.....anything is possible with the right amount of cash.  But with all the dough you would be spending you could probably get a skyline imported through motorex.  <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt='
