lol i wish it was my skyline...its the HKS street version...its great. im only 16 so i cant afford more than a picture of it haha. i hope i can get a S13 soon though!

it can use a paintjob what you -thank god!- are doing. what colour is it going to be?

how does the car feel with the much heavier RB in there? far more understeer? its an very interesting subject to put an RB in the car. i know it was done already, but i heard you can have a lot more understeer because of the weight distribution. its about 65/35 orso? one or two years back in i think modified mag, there was this silvia with the (an SR20 though) engine so far to the back, the whole centre console was realligned so far to the back, that it had the ideal weight distribution of 50/50...would be interesting with an RB wouldnt it.

one advice though: keep down the swearing. i myslef swear a lot, im the first to say that. but dont do it on the forums, because it will be sad to see someone with such a cool car being kicked out.

he has an sr20, look at his pics. The s14 has rb. Looks good. Those cusco coilovers? What front bumper is that? Nice choice with the brick headlights. Cant wait to put my shit on lol.

and um tein just put an rb26 in an s15 silvia. They moved it back into the firewall for perfect weight. I think you can only see two cylinders from the actual bay......

The body kit is "Vertex"...Not sure what model or anything, i baught a nose clip from japan, it came with a body kit. I like it a lot....When i was building, i was hoping it would be a bit more of a sleeper, but when i came across that i couldn't pass it up. I only paid $700 canadian for it. I got a silvia rad. w/shroud, hood, bumper, fenders, sideskirts,rear skirt(NO good 4 me...coupe model) brick headlights, with Gee-system light amplifiers, FIAA after market horns, a stock sidemount w/recirculating valve (not on my car now) headlight harness,washer fluid res. BTW....everything is in fairly good condition! I think i did pretty well.
