Some of ye might know this car, I bought it from Shane Kelly here on this site. I had my eye on it for over a year and sent my brother for it when it went for sale as I was in Australia and couldnt wait to get home. I have it about a year now. This car had a good bit of work to do to it body wise. Here is how I bought it.

I then set out to get a rocket bunny kit and a nice set of dished wheels

Very unhappy with the original paint work, I then rubbed it down, got rid of the roof spoiler that had been moulded in and stripped it finding that there was nearly six layers of different paint.

She then got sent away to get a custom brown as i wanted to keep the old skool look, also went for a cusco blue roll cage, two bride low max seats and two takata harnesses. Collected a few bits for her along the way like original silvia grill, two up headlights, camber arms, 18" ssr viennas 9.5 in the front and 10.5 in the back,shot gun exhaust and this is what she has come to.... looking at an engine swap over the winter, hoping either a v8 conversion or a 1jz.
