already deleted, could it have been sold already?

anyway rules:

soreballz · 10-01-2016, 08:43 PM

It sold for 200 bucks about an hour after I posted. It was a stock blue two-tone with a crunched front end. I really hope it gets fixed rather than parted out.

Just sitting in Japland waiting for the next boat to Vancouver. I've owned an s14 k's navan aero, s13 240sx, and an s15 spec r aero. I can easily say this always has been my most sought after s chassis, after going for my first ride in a silvia back when I was 16 and it was of course a 2 tone coupe. Unfortunately the car was in rough shape and my father wouldn't let me take on the project due to space. Fast forward 8 years and here I am, finally getting one before they disappear. 1993, fully loaded, club k's super hicas, 100% stock (minus the bride euro 2 and work wheels).

Someone save this thing.

Anyone looking for a original silver green metallic two tone (seafoam green ?)

In SoCal they never come up for sale, let alone in a manual trans.

This one needs some paint and some love, but it is indeed original and legit in my opinion. Clean title, original single cam and 5 speed.

I would buy it if I didn't have one already.

Rustys14 · 12-07-2016, 07:38 AM

Finally got around to painting mine! Still have a lot of finish work to do but I'm stoked on it so far.

NICE! Leave the windows untinted too! Adds to the car IMHO.

hell yeah! love the period correctness advans and woodgrain wheel. would look even better with some bricks

*Yuri* · 12-07-2016, 11:03 AM

That car looks great. I'd actually go a step in the other direction. Keep the dual projectors and find a zenki large font SILVIA grille for it.

I agree, I've never been too keen on tint so they'll stay untinted for sure. I am looking to scoop some JDM rain visors for it though.

Thanks! I like the duals but I've always been a fan of bricks so I'm going to give them a go. I'm holding onto the duals so I can change things up from time to time though.

Standard · 12-07-2016, 04:23 PM

^ looks really good man!!

Are the skirts and valances OEM or reps? Looks like fitment wise they could use some adjustments, otherwise well done sir!!!

Thanks! Everything is just loosely fit in the picture but the skirts and valances are dorki dori reps. The skirts are actually decent, they're a bit off as is typical with frp parts but not enough to where I won't be able to get them sorted. The valances on the other hand fit like shit, I should be able to make them look decent but I'll probably end up scooping a OEM set in the near future.

KiLLeR2001 · 12-07-2016, 06:23 PM

Just put on the OEM S13 Silvia rain visors (again), spray tinted them black instead of the ugly faded purple color.

Next up, OEM Silvia skirts and valances.

advans

Fuck yeah put Advans on everything.

s13poop · 12-08-2016, 04:07 PM

I don't get why people make such a big deal about bricks

don't get me wrong they look great but so do duals when cleaned properly and have the fogs wired up.

kashira kureijii · 12-08-2016, 04:40 PM

Pfft, triple projector is best projector.

Bricks are freakin base model lights that yall have talked up into being supposedly better.

projectors project their divine light accurately into the hearts of man, like a precise swiss watch. bricks throw light around like an untrained security guard, they don't even have projector in the name, their effective range is probably like 3 inches.

I think its just a matter of personal taste. I've always preferred the bricks but probably wouldn't be changing them if my duals were in better shape. Its hard to adjust them with broken tabs and missing hardware. The duals def win for looks at night though, I'm sure I'll miss the yellow.

You would think the projectors would be worlds better but I've owned all 3 types at one time or another and can honestly say that the output on all of the Silvia lights is horrid. Your going to be basically blind at night with any of them so pick your favorite and pray nothing jumps out in front you.

Sidenote: Anyone else remember when tipple projectors were all the rage and bricks could be had for next to nothing?

I do, maybe that's why bricks are the rage now. Everyone grew up seeing trips on every Sil front and wanted bricks instead. Your car looks great btw, I'd be down to check it out sometime.

KiLLeR2001 · 12-08-2016, 09:29 PM

I wouldn't put trips on my car if you paid me.

There's a green two tone for sale in Jersey SR20DET ($13,000). It's on the 240sx Owner's Club on FB.

Good ass price for a restoration car!

dizzariot · 12-16-2016, 02:26 AM

Finally. Fucking. Got one.

It's a 1988 Q's, 6G0, CA18DE, and factory manual. Has around 32,XXXmi (52,XXXkm) and everything works.

Wheels were ordered a month or so ago. Gonna buy some DG-5 coilovers and some arms for proper drop.

Scored an old school HKS header, too. Gotta get a weld repaired. Gonna go through the car in the upcoming week to make sure there aren't any surprises waiting.
