The guy who did the custom wire harness on that car did my harness for my SR20 (estevan). Let me tell you, you will not see better work anywhere!

WOW. Last time I saw it, hed still had the pig nose on it. That was one of the hottest S13s in the US. Too bad he had to jump on the bandwagon...

can someone tell the differences represented between the small and large font "silvia" front center garnish.is one rarer than the other? (more in demand?)does it differenciate years and trim models? (like the halogen/dual/triple projector lights or the Q's/K's front bumpers)

the smaller one seems to be less common but i doubt its higher in value most people want the r32 style grill

....pretty old. He is from Florida. It's just a basic SR swap in a gutted coupe... It's clean....but not THAT impressive. There is a vid of him driving it and it's so damn loud....

I dont think you realize how much time and money he put into this.... he made sure pretty much everything was perfect, like replacing the seals around the windshield from nissan... if you see it in person you'll say wow that is impressive. it doesn't put down loads of h/p, but i don't think he wanted that.

Do what you want bro... as long as there are cars, there are trends and as long as there are trends, there will be trend bashers, and trend bashing is even a trend in itself. I love the guys here, but sometimes a few of em care more about being different than doing what they truly like. Personally, my front end was fubar, so I went with a K's aero front and am loving it. Do what you want, its your car man.

Yeah man. Do what you want. I like the Aero front, and that is about it. Too many folks run with the Q's bumper and Zenki lip, but then again, I can't talk cuz I have a Zenki lip on my chuki and all....but that is beside the point.

I like the pignose because it was different. Everyone with clean S13s has either the Chuki or the Silvia front, and sometimes that gets boring. But his car is way nicer than mine, but if I could have done what he did at the time, I would have.

i like the zenki lip on silvia fronts, but i wish there were other front lip options available.the only other lip i've seen (thats relatively easy to get) is the bomex lip (copy?) on ebay
