  • from yuck to better haha S13

    hey how ya going my names Sean from Australia and here is my S13 Silvia
    the pic is how it looked when i first got it yeah i did like it when i got it looked cool but slowly got over it started changing back to stock with stock bars then i changed over the hubs and roters back to 4 stud since i got a sweet pair of rims for the car Volk Mesh 15x8.5 -24 with a 205/60/15 my mate used to own them he got custom outers made up for them and this is how the car is to this day iam pretty happy in how it looks we tryed flaring the guards over the rim but that dident help much and the front is running max camber and is still not in the guards so right now iam just looking around for some bolt on flares

    apart from looks not much is done to the car just the normal stuff

    Coilovers with helper springs - front mount - 3 inch exhaust turbo back - aftermarket readeator - front and rear strut brace -

    thats it for now ill be updating the build whenever something new happens

    Cheers!

    Definately looks cleaner without the kit and those god-aweful wheels . My opinion though, fuck the flares, and invest in some suspension components and smaller tires. Tune the suspension up with some camber and get low, it'll look cleaner with camber and a stretch than with bubble tires and over fenders at 0degrees, trust me

      what kinda look are you going for? just pick up some work equips throw the kit back on slam it and you have a beast drift car / DD the only reason the kit looked horrible is because of the wheels and offset.

          As said above, the kit would work with better wheels and offset... Also smaller tires would make the volks look 100x better... Looks good so far though..

              agreed, but I'm still getting sick of seeing that uber-flare version-select rip kit on everything under the sun that's rwd :P, lol. It's not a bad kit, it's just all over the fucking place.

                  i agree to that haha. i mean i would just slang the kit than and pick up something decent. Check out ozdesigns.ca they can get some nutty kits plus his names custom in house kits as well that have good fitment and look amazing. + steve (the owner) is australian and you know australians are rad.

                      dude, a 55 profile isnt gonna cut it either. def get some smaller tires or wider wheels. looks good though. i want a s13

                            how its sitting at the moment, i reckon it looked better before with the kit and hp designs...get some smaller tyres and lower it cos right now it looks like a moon buggy, but your heading in the right direction!
