Looks great! Welcome to NICO.

511hp is pretty impressive. Nice parts list.

P.S. The steering wheel rocks! :P

I love it. If I needed to be super pickey though... with that kind of power, why didnt you get wider wheels. But thats the only thing I can comment on.

cant stand silvia front on a hatchback - 100. how clean your interior is, and you still have the nasty door/glovebox fabric -1.

the rest + 94020985243058223402934092342

almost perfect imo.

Motor 9.3/10

Wheels 5.5/10

Aero appearance 6/10

sell or keep the silvia front, but those wheels are ready to make their departure. and build your car like this.





or this





for more subtlelty

I got a huge question that has nothing to do with this thread, but definitely related.This is to all of you...

Did any of you ever experience high idling after driving your car a little hard? My car hits 1800 after driving her a bit hard (shifting at 32-3500, driving past 75 etc.) If i drive her below 70 for the duration of my ride, she's kosher.

Someone suggested cleaning my fuel injectors with some lucas fuel injection cleaner and another suggested spark plug replacements.

ANy suggestions???

SWEET AZZ RIDE THOUGH. Clean look. b****in' Sil-80 body. I'd say a 9.7/10. Dash just needs some work. Wheels like that don't attract the fuzz. Good choice I say. They're still wide enough to get silly with. :D

The best advise I can give you is to stop driving it right now! Mail me the title and keys and I will come pick it up shortly. It might take me a min to drive my POS S13 from VA to TX!

looks good but i think it would look cleaner if you hide your aem ems, your gauges where black, and the door/glove box fabric should be the same bride fabric as you seat, but im a perfectionist

love the steering wheel and engine
