I know some of you people are already keeping an eye on the build of my Silvia, and it's been a while since I posted regularly on SAU, so thought it time to share with some more people in WA.

This car is what I've been building for coming on 3 yrs now since I wrote off my wine red R32 GT-R the day I'd finished tuning it (pics of the car). It's an S13 Silvia which has been taken back to a shell and started again from scratch - the highlights being a built SR20, wide body front and rear, brembo's, big rubber and full suspension fitout. The philosophy of 'factory special' has been carried throughout the build. Anyway, enough yapping, check out the blog for more info (there's a link to the build 'Plan' on the right column.

I have been watching your build for a close 6 months now. I love it. I wish I had the time and money to complete something of this scale.

Brendan, Keep up the good work. I've been keeping an eye on this project and can't wait to see the finished result

[VSPEC32]

Thanks Paul, me neither. Will be sure to bring it on an SAU cruise so you can all see the result. It does have a few Skyline bits on it (brakes, diff, half shaft), so it should comply.

Cheers

I have seen this car in the flesh and the photos dont do it justice. Very nice car. Looks like you have the right people working on it based on the quality of it.

Keep it up, look forward to seeing it on the street!!!

Just read the lastest update today... love the plumback pipe from the bov...factory special alright. Good to see you finally traced down that N1 brake master cylinder. Good luck with having it 100% for autosalon... I haven't been in years but it's worth a ticket just to see sillbeer in the flesh. Have you got the plates yet?

[VSPEC32]

Yeah dude, plates are waiting out at Welshpool. If the car isn't licensed in time, I'll just make up some myself...which I was looking at doing anyway - well the front at least as a sticker rather than plate to smooth the airflow around the front bar.

And many thanks for the kind words. Even if the car isn't finished, it will be there just the same.

are you allowed to have a sticker number plate here in WA?

my understanding was that you cant

The sticker number plate is only for the car show. If the car isnt registered on road and has no plates he cant drive it, so it will probably get there on a trailer or something.

makes me wanna sell my skyline

I think that's one of the best compliments I've had to date. Well, I'm taking it as a compliment.

And apologies for the delay, have been meaning to make a post for a couple of weeks, but my nights are spent working on clients stuff rather than my own.
