Because S13 fronts with Supermade pods, with a Silvia boot would be immense.....

Silvia fronts are more common than pop ups nowadays

kyle i know you have trouble reading so ill explain it again just for you.

i didnt put a s13 front because i love s13s , i put an s13 front on because i needed money, a ps13 front fetches around £500 where as i picked up an s13 for front for £30.

and realisticaly i would of ended up smashing the front bumper up when it was a ps so might as well sell it while its worth something and spend money on more important things.

you can probably count the number of one-vias in the uk on one hand. where as ps13's are popping up everywhere. as are sil-80s.

and after 13 pages of this project thread id of thought it was pretty obvious to anyone, i couldnt give two shits about what other people think about how my car looks!

My opinion on this, although not as valued as guru kyle's is that one-via's are the f.uckin dogs danglys!... Keep up the good work!

Without a doubt my personal favourite skid car that was ever on dw has to be this....

im still ridiculously torn between too many colours!

green machine green- because my old car was and it was a legend, and i got rid of it way before i wanted to, always said id build green machine 2

yashio pink- as itd look fucking outrageous, especially with my graphics (which are on the way soon)

purple- because its just damn pimp

or maybe just match the front blue again, though im slightly bored of it, and the rear quarters/bumpers are all different shades!

think as soon as the photoshops are back im gonna put a vote up for it, as i literaly cant decide!

Always wanted to see an S13 in Championship White with carbony bits. (Honda color, hurfdurf)



Can't really tell by the pic, but it's a soft and glossy light-eggshell white.

i think pink/purple/pretty much any colour under the sun looks "madder" than white!

not exactly a mad colour!

right first bit of todays work was tucking the loom under the front wing. pretty easy,





until it comes to fitting the wing back on...

cant seem to get it back on without having a big panel gap somewhere or another, be it where the bonnet lines up or where the wing meets the door:





spent a while losing my temper with it, then thought fuck it, do i really care about a small bit of panel gap? no not really, my cars 3 different colours. so thats how it sits now.

on a plus side, loom no longer rubs, went for a quick drive but noticed something still felt very much like it was catching the wheel, took a long time to work out what that something was:



fucking coilover! when i lowered it the other day i removed a 5mm spacer as it looked a bit out of shape and un-needed. on reflection now im guessing that was stopping the inside of the rim hitting the coilover, or possibly the position of the springs was a bit higher before.
