I was curious to know if anyone remembers the flat green s13 coupe/hatch with silvia front and and RB25 motor. I remember seeing a photo of it from bings meet 2-3 years ago?
If anyone has pics, knows the old owner let me know! I just wanted to look at the specs of it for general interest.

Car isn’t as interesting as i thought it was
nah, car was pretty busted. At least the shell was.
And 9k!! Fuck that.
Making a reliable 300whp with those parts iwith an RB25 is pretty much cake. 9K is about right for that car in 2008. If he were to have taken it to a shop, it would have cost at least 9K to have the engine sitting like that. Intake manifold alone is over 1K if authentic, 500+ for knock off, New throttle body+ relocation shiz, relocated battery, 3" from the turbo back (easily 1500 if not knock off shit), custom upholstery, wheel, rims, brakes, Kei Office coils which were never ever below 2K USD, etc. If you aren’t Ted, you’d be bending over for that setup at some shop and paying more than 9K for it. Also remeber how much a good RB25 motorset cost back then. They were going for 3500 last fall in 2009, never mind 2008.
yup took the words outta my mouth trav
That’s cool… I still would never pay 9k for THAT chassis. But, I do realize things were different back when that 240 was built.
i ended up trading my old 180sx for it. Car was a piece i sold it 3 days after i got it. It worked well for about halfway back to montreal then it started falling apart.
yeah it was pretty haggard from what i remember
