and they did lol... Its called a Siilva Varietta made by Autech.

My mates got a convertible S13 with a 180sx frontend conversion, came from japan with shaved doors with remote hydraulic door openers, dumped to its guts, and the most pimping rims (like the ones you see on old chevy's) ever. Its like all the convertibles were bought by people that were insane about personalising the car.

The S13 convertables have soo much more structural reinforcement tho (Bootspace is halved and the pillars and top of the windscreen are about twice as thick) it weights the car down, and being only available as a 1.8L Auto its a bit restrictive.

I like that car tho, its very tastefully done. Dunno if Prestige ended up bringing the car down.

you learn to live with risbey's wording. I love his all inclusive disclaimer "the car is in good condition considering its age" which means it could have anything from a crusty underbody to immaculate panels.

    • Sorry for reviving an old post, but I'm having the same hot idle tick issue. Did anyone ever find out what it was?  I have checked/ replaced Injectors Coils checked Lifter clerance (is at zero) Checked Cam lobes Replaced exhaust gasket and studs Would appreciate any advice this is driving me nuts  
    • There's a huge reason manufacturers are tuning in dead flat torque curves... Make them reliable (and more drive able)
    • What HVAC actuator is under the steering wheel? Do you mean on the RHS of the centre console, immediately to the left of your shin? If so, then yes, it is probably that one, because that is the mode door actuator, and from what I know, it's still a pain in the arse to replace. I don't know about whole dash out, but you certainly have to rip into the centre console section. I don't know if it's covered in the workshop manual, as I haven't spent much time looking at those parts of it. (and by "the workshop manual, I mean the R32 GTR one, which is the most comprehensive one we have, and it should be similar enough between that and later cars to serve as a guide).
    • ...oops. forgot the TCU end...
    • No I got mine from a friend that had fabricated one … but I had to fit it to my setup which was a hks turbo setup. His was a Garrett -7. So one of my turbos was not a flange for one side … then I had a leak in the welds I had to find a weld shut … in the end the setup was decent priced but I spent a lot to get it fitted. A couple companies I checked would make it but you’re talking 7-9k aud with titanium. No joke mine was 6-7k even second hand after I had to fit it in Hong Kong … labour is expensive here.
