I guess I was being sort of a jerk but I have no tolerance for half of the "show cars" I see in magazines. That tolerance carries over to those who choose to build a car like that. I have nothing against you personally, I just disapprove in your taste in cars and what you do to them. Im just voicing my opinion just like everyone else.

Good Find all the 240's in my area go for like 9-10 G's and they are pieces of **** with just Ricer body Kits and Lambo Door's.... On the other Hand Your job is interesting better than doing the same thing everyday and some of the Cars i see from Import Nights are really good and if you did some of the ones i seen kudos for you

Ok just a little update. I got the new turbo,exhaust manifold and intake manifold as well as cams and valvesprings on their way. The car is going to paint on Saturday. Unfortunately I still haven't picked a color. I just think any color is better then the one thats on there. So if anyone wants to send me some pics of an S13 with the silvia front I would love to get an idea for colors and what would look good on it. Thanks guys and new pics are coming

I haven't cracked her open yet. I have stripped the interior for the new paintjob. Absolutely no rust on this hatch except in one spot. Needless to say its around the windshield so I am having the windshield pulled to fix this little spot and have everything sandblasted on the inside to get a good coat of paint down.Im pretty sure I'm sending the motor to the machine shop in the next few weeks. valvesprings,pistons,rods and possibly a stroker kit(If I get a good price on it yes. So far the price isn't good. HAHA).

you're gonna love that turbo once you get it tuned.

what made you go with such large injectors? unless you have special AR's on the 71r you would have been fine with 555's.

i have the GTRS on mine (same damn thing) and it's the perfect SR turbo for moderate power. mine was SUPPOSEDLY dyno'd at 388WHP in japan. they only tuned it at 0.9 bar.

i will be dyno'ing it here in the states eventually to find out what it's really making but it pulls hard. i'll have to give you a ride hahaha

I got all that stuff for 1500 bucks from my sponsor. They had it for one of their project cars. I couldn't pass it up.

paint it like this! http://img93.imageshack.us/img...k.jpg (link'd because the pic is jumbo sized) except no little scribble squiggly things he's got going on with the silver.

I know, I know you won't paint it like this but I thought I'd give it a shot.
