bonnet vent
rolled arches
engine bay with tubbed arches
S15 wing mirrors
custom tail pipe
custom RC wheels
custom indicator lenses
Interior:
scratch built: interior tub to replicate 1/1 silvia
hydraulic handbrake and gear knob
roll bars
swithcboard on dashboard
S15 dashboard
Recaro bucket seat with harness and R32 GTR passenger seat.
Battery relocation
Detailmaster steering wheel
Chassis modifications include lowering, increased neg. camber, scratch made anti roll bar, and various other components.
Engine bay:
RB26 taken from the tamiya r32.

Hello chaps,
this was a fairly quicky build, although I got very lazy in between building it.
Wanted another model to add to my little collection.
Mods are as follows
Suspension lowered and cambered to fit new wheels. (Yet to stretch rear tyre somehow but leaving it for now even though it looks a little unrealstic!!)
Exhaust sytem chopped and modified for new shotgun (single barrel) style exhaust
Tinted rear lights, rear window and front indicator lenses with Tamiya smoke.
Custom front lip.
Tow strap
Drivers bucket seat with harness
Dished steering wheel
JDM dildo gear knob
grip tape on handbrake with drift button
Roll bar
Random stickers
Here's the pics, I hope you like it as I do!!! ( the pics are pretty awful, sorry!)
not sure if this is the right section, as its not totally finished! Need to sort the rear tyres out, maybe paint wheel centres aswell.

thanksss guys!

Hey there
I built this halfway through building my fortune rx7, my skills developed alot on this build...so its quite a significant build for me in that sense.
Tamiya kit, alot of scratch made parts-
Interior-stripped look, roll cage made from brass, dash mods, door cards
exterior parts, front bumper, rear bumper, sideskirts, guards, vents, bonnet, lights, kouki rear lights
alot of engine parts, enginebay, chassis detailing etc
Painted zero candy blue
I hope you like it, Im a serious s13 enthusiast. -
haha thanks guys! Nice to hear from you Jimmy!!
The real car is mazda rx7 with the infamous fortune bodykit from veilside...but you cant buy a kit form of this, so I made it!
Thanks so much guys, makes it all worthwhile when people like it!

Thanks mate, for your very kind words.
I'll post up more of my work, I just want to inspire people to do whacky stuff that they make think may not be possible. Im no pro, but with great supporters, and strong motivation, you can build anything!
Thanks again mate!

Hey everyone!
Im new here, some of you might know me from SPC, but those who dont, I would like to present my latets completed model.
I am very pleased with this build, being (as far as I know) the first version of this car built up in the world. That, I am extremely proud of.
Its by no means perfect, alot of things that could be better, one in particular, the bonnet fitment, that was due to a mistake I made early on in the build when the front split into 2 :/
Everything was scratch-made, inluding the engine.
Anyway, I'll show you the pictures.
Sorry for the huge number.
I hope you like it, Im a serious s13 enthusiast. 
But thanks anyway!
