Progress - Fujimi Nissan SilEighty

Something I've been working on in between daily activities and brainstorming on my Super VIP project. First completely new project in awhile. Since I had no Silvias in my collection, I picked up this Sil80.



Body painted in TS-58 Pearl Light Blue. Applied some tuner decals on the hood. Ready for many layers of clear. Wheels are Fujimi Work Meister S-2's painted a custom mix gunmetal (Mr. Metal Chrome silver + Mr. Color Semigloss black).



With open wheels like the S-2's, big brakes are a must. Using Fujimi's big Brembos. Since the stock brakes were molded with the springs, cutting need to be done. Other pieces needed trimming to fit the bigger brakes. Probably redo the springs too, a Kei Office suspension, maybe. Exhaust will be Apex N1.



No interior pics yet. Drilled out holes for gauges and for an E-01/PowerFC type device. Tamiya R34 seat w/racing harness, and Tamiya R34 intercooler are also going to be used.

Hopefully posting the progress thread will prevent me from dropping the ball on this one.

The decals are from Laubak. Didn't want to overdo it, so I just used Nismo, Apex, Mines, and Greddy. All applicable, no "sticker on car with none of their products" syndrome.
