aight guys, bodywork has been put on a bit of a hold as cuz i have a few other projects to take care of! but i did manage to get my hands on a few more necesarry parts like a Revolver rollcage (ment for a non sunroof silvia) and Battle version suspension links!

now what i am doing about sunroof is removing the sunroof assembly and then just making brakets and stuff to hold in the window so that i have just a window uptop! i will get pics once i get this all finished! it will be a little while before everything comes together BUT dont worry it will be all done soon enough :slight_smile:

Rollcage semi mounted and not fully assembled, i will also be adding a few more bars to complete the cage the way i want it :slight_smile:

There was one like that in St Albert for a while… same wheels as the ones on the rear and the same colour. Nice car though.

looks like some good snow tires. :lol:
looks nice and clean

HAHAHA! yes the advans give superior traction in the snow :wink: i took it for a test drive after i replaced turbo and oil and such and i got stuck 3 times, thank god i had my pit crew with me hahaha!

was this purchased through IC?

I dont think it was thru IC

Anyone have a link to their…IC seems pretty reputable but I’d like different options open…
I know of Cannonball, IC and JNS…if someone can hit me up or PM different importers through Canada I would appreciate it pls and thanks

Still swapin the SR into it?

Lookin nice man. Should be pretty mean.

Please dont swap the SR into it …this car seems very well built and tuned …

My thoughts exactly. 290 rwhp already, I wouldnt bother.

Yes…but 290 may not quite cut it right robb… :lol:

Afterall, you gotta keep up with me right.

BTW, its www.worldcarlink.com, ive had nothing but good dealings through lon.

i am going to keep the ca in for as long as possible, i will build the sr20 on the side and work on the ca as well, the car had a bad turbo seal and it sent oil all through the intercooler, intake, injectors so i need to rip off the intake today, i swapped turbos yesterday and it runs fine now just need to clean up the injectors and intace so the car isn’t runnin on 1/2 oil and half gas :wink: the car was tuned in japan and it runs REAL lean overhere so i need to retune it! i will get the s15 turbo rebuilt then retune the A/F and i should be good for another 300hp pull on the dyno! hopefully :slight_smile:

thanks for the replys!

rob

oh and also this was not an IC buy it was me looking for a car on the auction lists (yahoo japan, ASNET auctions) and then lon hall doing the shipping work over in japan and me doing the rest! hahaha honestly i was not expecting all this shit! i just needed a shell to put the sr in but a 300hp ca18 will do just fine :slight_smile: i am way to happy right now

rob

did you find it more convienient doing the work yourself? find it cheaper in any way at all?

I remember seeing this car in the auctions …I remember the front mount and wheel combination …

Working on your own car is always more rewarding and you can always learn something at the same time …but nobody wants to get in over there head …

So, I’m guessing you don’t worry about understeer . . . :lol:

Wow, congrats on a great buy. It’s always good to get more than you bargained for.

Well yeah I know pretty much about that…I should have elaborated more, I meant the work on bringing it over yourself…

yeah it is cheaper in the long run cuz you don’t have people making money off of you and so on! clearing a car is very simple when u have all ur paperwork and a import/export license, u can get them for free at the government building! just go there and ask for an import export number and fill out the forum and they will hook u up right then and there then u need a ups account and then u should be set!

but yes in the long run it was cheaper and a good learning expierence!

rob

do u have a faster skyline sitting around :stuck_out_tongue:
