Building an S15 (seiya)

Recently I purchased a Silvia S15 shell its a work in progress and I would love it if you guys can chime in and give your advice when solicited and also unsolicited.

This is my first nissan, I was first a honda guy owing 98 Civic Hatch, then a 01 prelude, then a 95 hatch and a 91 CRX.

80% of these have been rhd, now I also own a FD3S RX7 a JZA80 Supra and this silvia.

This is when my buddy bought from some guys that were about yo make it a drift missile







It has about 90% of the interior its missing some pieces here and there that I will be hunting down

Parked at his house where I went to pick it up

What about him? I bought a 180sx kouki front lip from him and it's shit. I guess you get what you pay for.

Good find btw. Reminds me of the s15s in the Philippines.
