All you've done is primer the car and your progress thread already has 2 pages !

I'm really looking forward to this car. I hav'nt really seen you complete a model and I'm curious to see what kind of skill Mr. Anti-Rice has. Good luck.

just goes to show what a great car it is, eh?

just touched up the primer in a few of the weak spots, and painted the FMIC. i plan to use Chris's idea of making a logo stencil to spray paint onto it. i'll take some pics of the wheel choices, the FMIC, the tubes for my exhaust and other stuff tomorrow. i also plan to start on the interior tomorrow. look for paint sometime mid-late week, so the primer can harden.

hmm wheels..

I think you should go with the tried and true drift wheel..some watanabes. Fujimi makes a real nice set of 17" ones that look nice in the fenderwells. Or if you have the Advan RG's already use them..they look good too. Make sure you lower it some, one of these days i'll get around to finishing my sileighty model...but i wanna finsh my full size one first. BTW there is an s13 silvia kit out by fujimi that comes with pre lowered suspension pieces..its the naniwa tomoare as listed on the HLJ site..here it is . I haven't mocked it up on mine yet to see how much it really lowers but i have been thinking about trying to cast these parts for those of you who might want them.. I got my kit off of ebay..it was listed as the "team treason" silvia..it also comes with a nice set of 5 point harnesses with cloth too.

The kit is looking good man, can't wait to see it finished

hey man, i would DEFINITLEY slap a set of Wats on there if i could find some! as i said i don't have access to a credit card and the internet is about the only place that i can find them! the BBS wheels that came with the kit are a tight mesh-type wheel, almost look like SSR Formula Mesh, which is one of my favourite wheels and a drift classic.

PM me with details about your real-life car, as i'm planning on building one too.

oh btw, the link in your post there is a link to the pic in your sig.

Cool

Sweet, Brian! It would make a great match for the O.K. Racing 180 SX I just received yesterday! Good to see a build from you!

oops..i'm a dummy, heres the link...

http://www.hlj.com/cgi-perl/hljpage.cgi?FUJ18571

well if i run across another set of wats then i might could work out a deal if you could pay me with a money order or something..

as for the full size car..here is the closest thing I have to a webpage.... go check it out...and when you get your 240 and are ready for a front end check this place out..its my local shop.. www.jkmsports.com soon to be redesigned into a 240 owners haven!

DROOOOOL

Watanabes would look the ducks nuts and Advan RG's are one of my personal favourites. I am putting them on my 180SX Type X. When you get around to it make sure you explain how you lowered the car. Should be awesome when you are done, as long as you dont put neons and subs in it that is

oh don't worry, i'm not a ricer, so no subs or neons will come within 100 feet of this or any of my models.

stryfe - there are so many ricers and idiots on that onlineshowoff webpage eh? like that one guy who commented on your car. he owns a Del Sol and asked you wear he could buy some S13 lights to put them on his Honda. some people just don't get it.

Oh i know...he's a little slow, actually him and his brother hang out at the local shop alot..he was kidding..he tries not to be a ricer but its kinda hard to convert him to the proper ways of the force..lol I am very anti rice, even though my car will be considered rice by the hardcore 240 owners to be rice with the paint job i'm getting..no graphics but a candy color with either the factory aero sideskirts and rear with an areo bumper up front or with a k-style bumper and the kouki type x sideskirts..maybe..all on top of some advan oni's , wats, or te37's. when I build my s13 silvia kit, i'm painting it the color my car will be..already ordered the paint. Also on a side note the team treason silvia with the lowered supsension peices was opened up and mocked up to test for clearance..and unfortunatly these kits suffer the same plite of full size s13 owners who have to go thru the trouble of getting wheels to fit..gotta do some grinding here and there to get the wats to fit right, but the front is tucking wheel..so once its done it should look nice.

well, it's still only in primer, as i'm going to let it harden for a few days, but i'll take some pics of the wheel choices and FMIC that i made. i'll take these pics tomorrow.

Gray - i would hardly consider your car rice! in fact, that sounds fuckin' awesome! what engine are you going with? KA-T, SR maybe an RB? me, i'm thinking of trying to go with an RB25 in mine if i can afford it somehow.
