Baz's S13 silvia

Me & my partner went to Melbourne a few months ago & I purchased my stock auto sr20de s13

Since the purchase a few things have gone on & changed

When I got it (did have the stock wing but I took it of the day i got home):




New sparco something wheels 16x8 rear, 16x7 front (4wd spec yo)




Lowered:






Stock spring on the left, chopped spring on the right which are in my s13 now (front springs)



Manual conversion:



Fitted side skirts/body work/prepping for paint












How it is sitting now, (getting front and rear bar, then painting it original panda 2 tone, The roof,boot and roof with be black, aswell as the pillars and mirrors black, the actual body of the car will be a blue/greeny colour with a heap of random pearls in it, 2pac metallic, I already have 4l of blue with a tiny bit of pearl, 4l of the top coat that is the epic colour and 3ish liters of black, So it should be tidy when I'm done




Future plans: Turbo the engine that is already in it, wanting to keep it reliable, So just a stock turbo running around 9psi, det front brakes, det injectors, det ecu for emissions, fmic ,exhaust & that about sums it up, I will be getting it all mod plated for insurance hence the reason on getting the turbo brakes and ecu etc

awesome mate! be sure to take some pics so we can see how the finished product came to be

Looks pretty good! bet its better than the old Exa!

I'm a great fan of taking progress pictures so there will be a lot of picture to show when it's done, deff is better than the exa, It's quicker, newer and has everything I want for the time being

Well it's been a while since I was last on here as I forgot about this forum, lol soz my bad ..Anyways it's now time for an update on the silvia, Or should i said ONEVIA now ..have been quite busy

Got a vertex rear bar, Was a bit of a bitch to fit since it was only a copy, but got it on in the end






Then came the 180 front .Ugly front bar I know, wtf were veilside thinking lol, came with the front end, straight swapped my front for it











Next was my head replacement, cams were worn and everything in the head was just haggard due to neglect from previous owner/s, So on went a new head with cams, lifters etc..That was fine for around a month until in town I smashed limiter a few too many times and the bottom end span a bearing,So i was on the hunt for either a new bottom end or rebuild what I had, Couldn't find a block with good internals, But I did find a few fwd sr's out of n14/15 sss pulsars etc..No good to be as a they were all complete engines and the heads were useless to me, So decided to rebuild the bottom end so I know it's all good, New acl race bearings, oil pump, timing chain, crank etc..As some of you I was going to turbo the engine & use the nistune, But I got a good deal on a DET ecu, loom + cas + coil packs etc..So out comes my loom, oil drain fitting tapped into my block for turbo, braided line for oil feed, Tee'd of the oil pressure switch, whilst the old bearings were getting removed I got the sump and other bits dipped in the acid tanks to be cleaned of grit & metal shavings

Old head with so much gunk, neglect ftl




No engine






The car should hopefully be back to me this weekend with any luck, running a basic turbo setup

T25g
fmic where radiator sits with short piping & radiator mounted infront of cooler closer to the clutch fan
9 psi
All DET loom, coil packs, cas, afm, rocker cover, injectors, ecu

so basically it's a stock sr20det setup apart from my higher compression so it will be better low down unlike a det, You won't be able to tell that it's a DE by looking at it

Saying goodbye

Looking good Baz, keep updating

Definitely will keep you guys posted, I'll have pics up of how the engine ..Won't be able to tell it's a DE+T

Only 1 question Baz, will it do a skid?

looking good!

With a single spinner it will be a homo as skid, I'll hunt down an LSD tho, can't wait to have boost again, missed it so much

Aha, single spinner!
Get that LSD acer imo xD

LSD will be soon, don't stress

nice work

My DE+T

Looks Good mate! What does it go like? The Toruqe would be great running the comp.

Runs pretty sweet

I no longer have this car, Will make a new topic for my new one
