In the past year and a half I have gone through the process of quite a bit of change.

One being that I am now on S12Silvia.com and work on writing blogs and attempting to showcase the S12 chassis in a form that many do not associate it with. I also have been traveling in an effort to meet S12 owners from outside my geographical location of Washington state.

I have also left my RB20DET engine and since gone with an RB26DETT. Again, this was much R&D being that it was a first in the States, second to a mate in Finland. I had much made up custom for the car in an effort to ensure its longevity and performance: ie a radiator, fmic, and exhaust.

For more on the swap, one can go to: http://s12silvia.com/?cat=17
For those interested in a basic idea of what it takes to do an RB swap into an S12: http://www.s12silvia.com/community/index.php?showtopic=5441

Without much ado, here are some pictures. I owe a great amount of gratitude to U.P. Garage as they did much work on my swap as both consultants and swapping in the engine.
