hey and welcome! It was me who drove ya this way... I was just peepin' the forum on your site actually! Your front clip looks like it was part of some serious wreckage! Your ride looks *dick* though. Love the silvia front end conversion!

nice job... keep it coming! I'm an STi driver with a passion for silvias so I can look at 'em all day.

yea, it looks like it was hit hard, my radiator was damaged and the SMIC had a hole it it, the TB pulley was broken, oil pan dented. But I've since replaced all those, I had to literally cut the clip apart with an air hammer since some of it was bent in towards the motor. Its dirty as hell but runs a hellofalot better than it looks.
Now its time to work on the suspension.

Hey Will, and welcome to the forum!
Love the pics! Is that top picture your car without the motor?
I love the yellow bulbs. *Nice touch.
Keep us posted on the progress!

forgot to log in, this is like my forums then.
I'm eyeing some Tanabe DD's and going with Battler Version RUCA's, tie rods and toe links
Obviously most S13 suspension bushings are shot, cuz I know mine are
oh and NISMO front under brace
I really need to stiffen the car up.

As far as the lights go, the yellow bulbs came with the lights, I'm trying sell the headlights cuz I like the nonprojector silvia headlights much better. So if anyone's interested, they're up for grabs
