Well I am officially down to owning 3 cars as I have just scraped my very first 240 :(
I still love how it looked lowered, pignose front bumper and black rocker guard, it could have been bad ass with some wheels and more low.
The day i got it home
Cal's BMW is coming along, going to help him today finish the brakes and hopefully exhaust
Silvia still being DD

Winter Plans Already?!
I always plan my projects well in advance and right now I can't wait to get started on this one.
I’m happy with how the Silvia looks presently but I feel it’s far short of my dream. So planned for winter is fender flares (not over fenders) which I have kicking around already that will be painted black to go with the cars theme. To fill the fenders I’m thinking something such as Work VS-KF’s in burning black, hopefully financed by a massive parts sale that I plan on doing in the coming weeks. Besides wheels and body work I only expect to be purchasing 5lug hubs, and rear Z32 brakes.

Bald Tires and Massive Fender Gap...
The Silvia has been taking a well deserved beating while being DD for the past 2 1/2 months and I can definitely say I'm proud of how reliable its been the entire time.
However I should check the tires more often :p
So now for the time being I'm running my R compounds that i normally use for drag
Corvette is running, sounds wicked at idle with open headers, but its just unbearable when driving so I need to find an exhaust shop pronto.
The vette needs a few more things before I'm happy with it, such as fixing this fender gap. Seriously how did such an acclaimed sports car have such a ridiculous gap.
