i couldn't help it, i bought my sr20 on ebay. so, now that i've bought it, has anyone heard of Liberousa? http://www.liberousa.net the website is not very helpful right now, but hey, neither is daunt's. anyway, i got the silvia front clip with body work, rear supspension, wheels, differential. all that. i hope it is what they say it is and as complete as they say it is. has anyone heard of them? let me know.

i wasn't dogging on daunt....i just meant that if you go to his site you can't do very much right now but look at a text list of prices....helpful, but not done is my point. i know that stuff takes time, i just meant that people trust dauntless and his site doesn't really do anything right now, so just b/c these liberousa guys are new doesn't mean i'll get poked in the exit only. i will try my best to document everything and let ya'll know what i think of the company. but if 3000 bought everything in the condition they are showing, i'm a lucky mojo.

All i got to say is... you bastard. My 240 coupe is black and that front end would go right on with no repainting.. and the paint on my hood/bumper sucks!!! (if your interested in selling lemme know ;)

anyways to take advantage of his "guarantee" start up the motor and run it while its still in the clip...

change the oil/coolant etc prime it for oil ghetto rig a fuel pump from a gas can start it warm it up... rev it a bit to make sure the motor is sound :)

RHD is a lot more work than its worth from what I've heard. I would suggest setting those parts and get some cash. Also cops would be on you a lot more with a RHD. But do it if you really want to.

You have to cut the firewall of the RHD and weld in place of your LHD

Not to hate, but that is the cleanest most desireable clip I could possibly imagine. I'd be very suprised if you recieved what you see there.

that and the website offers NOTHING usefull. =( They are out of Gardena according to a whois on their domain. But the administrative contact is a telling Liberaso USA so whatever. If this is a reputable company, pay with a credit card so you can atleast fight it if something happens.

good point...im glad you put a lot of thought into what you said there. So does that mean ALL japanese people are left-handed? they must be since all their cars are RHD! WOW! doofus...

I live in japan right now, It isnt hard shifting with your left hand! I actually find it better. Since I am right handed I can handle the wheel better. Anyway. I go to junk yards and I see ALOT of S13 there with little to no front end damage. After all the speed limit here is like 35MPH and 50MPH on the express way!!
