Jess' S13 Silvia - The Saga

Bought my lil sil mid feb 2007, she was a bog standard n/a auto and this is how far shes come over the last year......














First mod!!! Nex mags (with a pi$$ poor offset ) ops:


Then did a mad mish to auckland in a day to pick up a full manual turbo conversion :twisted:


New diff (soon to be shimmed)





new intercooler! (mind the dent)


rocker covers and i/cooler piping all blinged up




me cutting some intercooler piping!

spacers!




Blitz BOV (way too loud, now replaced with my Apexi Twin Chamber)




Respray and kit fitting time......








Came out pretty flashy for being painted in the barn at home








My ISC Adjustable coilovers - Supplied by Jas at NCPP


ISC Adjustable coilovers - supplied by North Coast Performance Parts (NCP






Getting tuned


Dont know how we managed to do this to the plug..... ops:



So shes come a long way!

List of mods so far are.....

NZ New Ca18DET (Manual)
T28 BB Tur
S14 LSD
Workshop X body Kit
GTR 440cc Injectors
RB20 Air Flow Meter
Apexi Blow Off Valve
HKS GTR Style Intercooler & Custom i/cooler piping (Powdercoated white)
S14 Seats
Deep Dish Steering Wheel
Drift handbrake button
Apexi Neo Air Fuel Controller
Gizzmo Intelligent Boost Controller
Walbro 500HP Fuel Pump
25mm spacers all round
18" DTM Mags (got news ones to put on this weekend hopefull will put new pic when I can!)
2.5" Exhaust
Xplod Sub, Sony MP3 Head Unit, Fusion Amp
ISC adjustable suspension
180SX rear sway bar
Front strut brace

Took it down to STM this week and managed to pull 156kW, which is a little disappointing, but more than enough for me anyway!

Currently tuned and running a steady 18PSI - and it pulls like a schoolboy

I think thats all....... for now
:wink:

Re: Jess' S13 Silvia - The Saga

Looking really well, were you at the Airport Drags with it this year at the Nismo display? Anyway you're from Paraparaumu so of course you're allowed on a Honda site, and some of my friends drive Nissans you'd probably know Yogi's one (the silver S14 turbo around here)

Yeah he keeps to himself a bit, the car was originally auto as well and he's manualled it and turboed it. I kind of go out with his Mum, she owned it when it was standard a few years and a few thousand dollars ago. Guess you could say she's Silvias Mother
