Pics of my s14.5 that I just sold

Sup guys, I thought i'd share some pics of the s14.5 that I just sold. I bought the p.o.s. about 6 months ago and did some crazy shit to get it to where it was when I sold it. I was going to keep the car and finish up an rb25det swap into it, but someone made me an offer I couldn't refuse so I sold it. I bought an EVO to take its place.

Here are the before pics.



The after pics.

haha, thanks. It was never officially on the market for sale. A friend of a friend saw the car and fell in love w/it. He made me an offer I couldn't refuse.

If you couldnt tell by my screenname.. silvia's are my second most favorite car next to the 3000gt.


I would have KILLED for that car.

I had an s13 I was eventually going to do the run of the mill sr20det swap into, but there was something shady with the title, couldnt get it registered and my fucking neighbors had it towed off.

Shit that is beautiful. I LOVE that bodystyle. Excellent work. Did the Silvia headlights just drop in? What kind of power was it making (any dynos or track runs?)?

If you don't mind me asking, how much did you have in it? How much did you pay for the original car? I'm pondering a project car sometime, just looking at all the options. A beat up front like that doesn't bother me. Neither does a blown engine/trans as they won't be in there anyway.

Thanks

That's one sick ride.

For whoever asked, the hood and fender need to be worked to fit the headlights, the lights just don't drop in (I think from looking at pics).

to answer some questions.

The front is an s15 front end conversion. Which consists of the following.

s14 to s15 conversion fenders
s15 hood ( i used a cf one)
s15 front bumper
s15 headlights
s15 bumper beam ( custom modified)
s15 headlight bracket
and I also had a jdm trust s15 front lip

My next project will be the evo.

ok i know some people don't like to post dollar figures but how much did you invest in that and how much was the car originally purchased for? I'm curious because I'm considering doing something similar right now. Trying to decide what to buy as a starter car. The satisfaction from pulling off something like you did with that car must have been well worth it (selling price aside).

The project was definitely not inexpensive. I got a lot of stuff at cost or free so that offset a lot of the total cash outlay. I'll give you a general list of everything w/prices that most people would pay.

car: i paid $2000 I usually see them go for about $4000 though
tein flex coilovers $1400
s15 helical lsd w/output flanges $500
ssr sp1 professors 18x8.5 and 18x9.5 $2500 w/tires
volk lugnuts $100
bride brix w/rails and sliders $1500
jdm s15 steering wheel $300
jdm s15 shift knob $80
apex'i gt spec exhaust $450
jdm kouki rear valences $300
jdm kouki rear bumper #450
jdm zenki side skirts $400
jdm s15 front bumper $400
jdm trust front lip $275
cwest lip spoiler $250
s14/s15 conversion fenders $600
cf s15 hood $450
jdm s15 projectors $600
paint and bodywork $2800
rb25det front clip $2500-$3500
greddy rb25det intake plenum $600
brembo front and rear z32 rotors $300
z32 front calipers $150
5 lug hub swap $600

thats pretty much everything off the top of my head that I invested in the car. Hope this helps you out. Keep in mind, that the car was only about 50% done when I sold it. There was plenty more that was to be done.
