alright so I have a bunch of pics here for those of you reading to enjoy

when I first got her


did basic maintence on it. drove around like that thinking I was king shit lol

picked up a B&M short shift from Don @ PDM, a matching set of leathers for my the shifter and ebrake from Redline goods, and a CF Nismo shift knob


picked up a set of ML320 front sidemarkers because I was cheap and I read somewhere that these worked, turns out they were about the same price as clear markers made for a 240 lol

Also picked up a set of Origin tail lights


fast forward a few months and my girlfriend and I broke up,
the best way to get over the pain of a breakup, brand new coilovers!!




I was happy, coilovers in, and the car was lower.



I knew nothing about setting proper ride height back then, it was later fixed haha

Picked up a some JDM turn signals, which later got me my first VI because the cop said " this car is imported from Japan and the white running light looks blue"
it was broad daylight on a august day. and I have a Canadian 240...
shortly after I picked up a CF hood also.



I was in one of the shops in Vic one day and the owner convinced me to swap in a SR.
So I bought it and I waited about a month before swapping it in. My KA's thermostat packed it in and it ran warm one day, and it gave me a excuse to swap it in haha.

Its just a plain jane redtop from a 91 Silvia. I was so dead set against one, my original plan was a rb25, then to turbo the KA, but I got a good deal on this and to this day I don't regret it.
picked up a top-speed manifold from a buddy for my T25 and a HKS wastegate and ran 12psi.



for a while I was working in Alberta in GP but spring breakup came around and I didn't have enough work to keep afloat so I moved back to BC. Had to sell my CF hood till I got another job which sucked but that's life.
I def noticed a difference in acceleration with the stock hood back on though. Also picked up a Zenki lip, painted it a bunch of different colors, I was gonna repaint the car white with a blue bottom, the blac, then all silver...but couldn't be bothered to go through prepping a car for paint again so those idea's were just a pipe dream.



Also picked up some FN's, love them as a wheel, first non kal-tire wheels the car got
Rolled the rears out to fit the wider tires


gas station shot


I like this shot for some reason


I bought a house, it had a big shop which was my selling point
decided its time to invest in a powdercoating setup from Eastwood
did my Vlave cover in Starlight blue over raw aluminum



Picked up a set of 26mm 300 brakes, rebuilt and powdercoated them also


Also upgraded to a 5lug setup, S14 front hubs with S13 bearing machined in, and Z32 rear. Also upgraded the brakes to a 300zx 30mm fronts with 350Z Track rotors up front and 300zx rears with ebrake setup.




Also installed some Kaigsai (sp ) auto fender braces
