Steve's '91 Silvia PS13

[steve1093]

So after selling the Skyline, and very reluctantly, the Glanza. I managed to stumble across this one day, only 15 minutes down the road.

Pretty much exactly how I would want one to look, so no drastic changes to come cosmetically. So far I've just been sorting out a few little niggles, fuel leak is fixed, now onto the diff, cv boots and trying to stop if from leaking water in (suspect f***ed rear window seals etc).

Threw a couple of orders over to RHDJapan already though.

- Tomei Expreme Ti Titanium exhaust system
- Yashio Factory engine torque Damper
- Yashio Factory radiator hoses
- Yashio Factory gearknob
- Yashio Factory drift button
- Some obligatory stickers
- Hyper Revs vol 185 180sx/Silvia (For £15!!!)

No massive plans as of yet, just going to enjoy it and get use to the setup

Lovely car this . Out of interest, is there any reason why you're changing from the HKS exhaust to the Tomei? I've been considering the HKS for mine, so would be interested to hear your thoughts on it.

[NathanR]

Looks awesome . I swapped out my HKS Hi Power, nice system just abit of a boring tone to it. Swapped mine for a NUR Spec wich is a lot more lairy. Lol

[CMR]

Looking good, check out Jesse Streeter instead of RHDJapan, he can source stuff a lot cheaper 99% of the time. Bit late now if you've already ordered but something to consider for the future

edit. pm'ed actually

Cheers man! The HKS seems a decent system, very quite though. Can't be much louder than stock... Was think of removing the centre silencer, but I always wanted the Tomei system of my Skyline, never wanted to fork out that much money though. Thought I'd just do it this time!

Yeah exactly, It's nice on the odd occasion, but I just get a little bored without the sound there

Ah cheers for the heads up, I'll keep that in mind for next time!

Ah I see. Might take a look at a Blitz then. I would like the car to be quieter, but not THAT quiet lol. It's currently got a 3" straight through system on there with no boxes at all, so I reckon even a Nur would be quieter!

[silverzx]

Mmm I like that.

Yeah the Tomei Expreme Ti is a 3" straight through Titanium system. I'm sure the Blitz ones are one of the loudest ones, or that's my experience with them on other cars... Good systems though!

Mmm I like that.

Thanks man!

[pointz]

So much awesomeness still waiting to see this in the flesh!

Are you coming to matchams jap night on the 24th?

[steve1093]

Are you coming to matchams jap night on the 24th?

Probably won't be able to make that. Want the car a little more sorted first

[pointz]

I haven't even got mine atm its still in the bodyshop :'(

[steve1093]

Just a few new parts that arrived and some obligatory photos...

[steve1093]

So got another little job done today, diff oil changed. Looking at the oil, it desperately needed it!
I'm really surprised at the size of the metal shards stuck to the drain plug... Time to look for a spare diff, just incase.

[pointz]

Looking sweet bud! That swarf on the plug doesn't look good at all. Almost looks like bits of mig wire there as well.

Yeah that's what I thought man! Feels a lot better now the oil's been changed though

Exactly what I thought, definitely looks like mig wire in there :O is she welded up then?

If it's not too bold to ask how much was the tomei all in? With customs etc. PM me if you don't want that disclosed in public

Just got my black ps13 yesterday.

Yeah been welded up by the previous owner.

In total including all shipping and taxes/duty etc, it was a tad over £900

I desperately wanted one for my Skyline but could never bring myself to spend that much... This time I just thought why not! And to be honest, I'm really glad I did. Had it on for two days now and I love it!

Ah nice one, enjoy!
