Hi All !
Im Tom and a total novice to Silvia's. This is even my first RWD car ! Hopefully it wont make it up a tree for a few months...
Car was built by my best freind, he purchased the car on its last legs with a knocking from the original engine.
My mate fitted a S14 SR20, GT2871r, lightweight flywheel and 6 puck clutch, stainless tubular exhaust manifold, huge HKS stainless exhaust from turbo back, large universal intercooler, z32 maf, HKS inlet & exhaust cams. S14 hubs with Skyline 4 pot fronts and twin pot rear calipers which I refurbished.
I then spent nearly a whole day doing the wiring loom conversion, as im supposedly good with most things electrical (and most things not). I also only charge a few cider's an hour - a true mistake !
The car then went to Horsham developments, for ecu unlock and rolling road live map session, the car made
356bhp @ 1.05bar
372bhp @ 1.1bar
400.2 @ 1.4bar
Four of us then took the Silvia and my Metro around europe on an amazing 2500 mile drive in just 5 days !!
That was 2014...
Since then the car has been sat on my mates drive in sunny Dorset collecting seagul poo and sand, his house purchase then made the car a luxury and I took it over.
When I got the car it was overboosting, had two duff rear tyres, alarm not working, water leak in the boot, aerocatch on bonnet was stuck, indicators dont work, carpet stained, one bucket seat and a s14 passenger seat fitted with harnesses, drivers wing in red oxide primer, boot same but covered with maty black vinyl.
Hopefully have resolved the overboosting - cant be sure until I get some legal rubber on it and take it for a spin. Alarm is sorted and now working perfectly, indicator fault found just needs to be resolved.
Seats removed
Few orders placed.
As soon as my phone allows me I'll get some pics up !
