Yeah, man. BN5. According to GTRegistry, there were only 48 cars in the configuration mine came in. I know no one else cares, but it's cool to me. The color plays on the S13 Silvia's 'seafoam' and I really like it. Kind of suits that whole 80's 'I-do-cocaine-while-wearing-a-white-suit-in-Miami' vibe I like so much.

Hopefully I can get my car inspection done this week and get the suspension installed. I got HKS Hipermax coils and Cusco RUCA (Cusco passes Japanese inspection) to start off with. I also have a couple odds & ends I've been hoarding for this car (OEM 'duckbill' trunk lip, OEM sides, etc.). I've been driving it around town and it's amazing how different this car feels. I've tried to tell myself it's just my mind playing tricks, we'll see if it wears off. All the bad shit I said about the S15 (when I had a Spec S) Is nonexistent in the Spec R..but maybe that's just because this car appears to have been religiously maintained.

I'm sending a fucked up set of LMGT4s off to CA to get refinished. Hopefully before they come back I can have everything else sorted. The silver LMGT4s have tires on them already so I'll probably end up using them as-is as opposed to using the TE37SLs. I really want to unbox the SLs soon, though.

Pictures to follow if I get to installing parts this weekend...
