hi not many would have seen this car as i havent got the chance to drive it as the engine has blown on me twice and rebuilds arnt cheap so at them moment it is sitting in my shed with no engine. the engine is up in drd motorsport getting rebuild ive gone for a blacktop sr20 but im making it a sr22. ive been gathering bit for this since the engine went 2years ago.
it started out as a standardish silvia with coilovers 16s advans and few other bits and alot of people would no it as i bought it of elite autos and it was sitting in there field for about 2 years before i bought it??
anyways after the first engine went i decided i would change it a good bit as never rely like the standard look of them so i started to sand down the body and painted it in subaru raven black met. also fitted a new origin stremline kit along with a new set of rota grid drifts 8.5 in front and 10s in the back.
spec is as it stands now

rite so got awhile this morning at this and got all the seam all cleaned rust treated and acid etch primed then seam sealed and brush a thick layer of high buid primer over them so i can sand a pile off to make the seams look tidy as i hate the messy way they come from factory?

so I havnt updated this in a long time as I dint want small updates so heres 1 big 1
I stripped the full car down as I wanted to paint the bay and seam seal and stonechip all the inner arches and underneath. while I was stripping it all out I wanted to paint the subframe and I got a bit carried away and painted every thing underneath I could except all the arms as there not going to stay in it once I save up il be getting a full japspeed or driftworks arm kit for it.
anyways heres the pics
bay stripped
