89 S13 Sil-Coupe build

[super240sx7185]

Ok so ive had my fair share of 240's so this isnt new too me lol, but ive never really posted here. This will be my start. I picked up this sil coupe for little too nothing (900 buxs) With a 107k ka24de in it. I drove it 3 hours home with no interior what so ever. I mean nothing just me, cluster, and the driver's seat. I have had the car exactly two weeks now and here are progress pics so far.

Picking it up



Home finally



Interior



Lots of sanding and some primer shots



Primer finished and gold bottom complete



Tein coilovers and some se's on it for now



Finally got some paint on



Test fitting lights



Thats all for now. I'll update once my tail lights come in and i start on interior and outside trim.

Thass sickk bro! i always like the white/gold silvias. what are your plans for it?

[super240sx7185]

My main focus is to get it back together. After that who knows. I was thinking a ca18det. I have already had an sr20 rb25 rb20 kade and kae so something new is in the works.

This is a clean build, Im digging the color scheme... Keep the thread updated and take pics!

Looking real nice. I like hatches more than coupes but i'd definitely go Silvia conversion if i went coupe, and yours is looking good. I'm painting my car white soon too, every seems to have their own gun! What kind of compressor/gun are you using? I like the two tone on coupes too keep up all the good work.

Go LS1 or VQ35Looking awesome, love that two tone.

[heartofaskyline]

two tone looks good. whats up with your bumper, it doesnt line up at all?

?? and thxs everyone.

good job on the paint, looks really good. Any close up shots?

[j-z]

LOL @ the bumper comment. bro, you need glasses. his bumper lines up as if it came oem from the factory like that (yes i know its all oem shlt). the only thing is your hood on the drivers side needs one of the rubber twist nipples to raise it up a little bit, and it will be perfect!!

anyways, like previously stated.... that car went from complete assshole to super clean!! i love it! very nice work too! please tell me youre going to put the black body stripe back on it. keep it clean, which from the looks of it so far, youre going that route. what are you doing interior wise? race look, or complete oem?

Yea the rubber thing is gone and the hinge is bent on one side. Yup i also have a 50ft roll if the oem pinstripe aswell. Im gonna go oem with the interior, but i gotta redo alot of the wiring first.
