looks good so far just needs 1 color paint and i'm sure it'll look completely different. what color are you painting it?

[FeintMind]

let me know what yall think

I think, " " Then I scroll farther, then I think, "Thank God he went with a different front bumper than that first one."

at one point in time it had 5 different colors on it...black fenders...white hood...red body...gold trunk...blue bumper...i really want it to be a matte gunmetal

[FeintMind]

i really want it to be a matte gunmetal

Good choice. I think it will look like El Sekso.

[mrgreeneyes]

looks good on the outside man... clean up that engine bay a little tho... mild wire tuck and a tasteful reroute of vac lines, etc would make a world of difference.

[dickie]

thats a nice 240SX COUPE you have there. it makes me miss my 240SX COUPE WITH THE SILVIA CONVERSION i used to have.

I think, " " Then I scroll farther, then I think, "Thank God he went with a different front bumper than that first one."

the gtr style isnt so bad when done right:





i happen to like it much better than 360 degree snowplow kits.

[boznuttz]

You actually pull off those fender flares very well, nice.

[Slappy]

ZOMG! Is that an ESS ARR??????? j/k

The grey primerd w/ kit looks good.

[srpowered240sx]

i like it. get some paint on there, and will be wicked. surprisingly, you pull off those fenders quite well.

[Slappy]

I wasnt going to bother to ask this , but why do you have 2 different body kits? The GTR Style front bumper is fugly , but the pic of your car grey with the other kit w/flares looks nice. Post of some pics after paint.

[japslapsilvia]

Thanks for all the compliments!!! with most people its eithor a love/hate thing with the flares...

thats the bumper i had back in 03' after that i had stock q's and now the origin kit...as far a paint unfortunalty it wont be painted anytime soon, i want to take most all of it apart....and do it right...some seam welding...underbody repair...and deffintaly some wire tucking...

[S13xCrazy]

^^ Atleast your honest.

Thats thing is secks!

[SoCal-s130]

If it wasn't for the fender flares it would be a lot better. Why not just go over fenders?

[Siizzzoooo]

where'd you get those flares? I like em

Ok cool. Keep us updated.

[japslapsilvia]

time for some updates!!!

getting ready for paint...so far i have the door jams and the trunk complete, just tryin to get the body ready for primer...them block sand and finish any minor body work...them paint

i will let the pic speak for themselves enjoy!!!



i also started to do some wire tucking and -an fittings

[adrianfromthecastle]

so I'm guessing by the length of your throttle cable, it used to be a sohc? LOL

its looking good man... move that throttle cable though, lol.

<3

[Slappy]

Looking good so far man! Keep up the good work.

[brizanden]

wow the underside of ur car is so so so clean. me jealous.

[ghx407]

Everything looks great so far, those fender flares look really nice.

[7x13xRPS13]

yea that first bumper is horribad

[RitualAftermath]

You actually pull off those fender flares very well, nice.

lol i was thinking the exact same thing. i'd say 95% of S13's i've ever seen with flares looked horrid for one reason or another, but yours aren't as gross lol.

i'm excited for you, i want to see the finished project. she's gonna be a looker ; )

[dopplganger1]

does the custom fan shroud work better than just having the fan there? and is there any other venting on it besides the fan?

[lalito]

^ looks really nice lilke the color. is it an infiniti paint code?

[s13gebala]

nice, it would look nicer without those turn signals or whatever they are, the reflectors on bumper. nice front tho

[gregfarz78]

honestly not a fan of the body kit or most body kits for that matter (guess I'm a purest)but the body work you put into it looks great looks like a clean coupe you got there

[japslapsilvia]

yea it works great, actually its only a 10" fan and when is does come on its only on for a few min's at a time, and its rarely on...the shroud is completly sealed to the radiator and that is the only venting

THANKS!! at 1st i wanted to keep the outside stock, but after a while i kinda wanted something differnt..
