| FS: Silvia - really clean, nicely upgraded, SR20DET - Click HERE for Original Thread |
| twinturbo |

I bought this at the begining of last summer, stored it in the winter. it passed all inspections first try with NO problems. This car started life as a Q's edition(this way I know it was not bagged/raced in Japan) and has been overhualed with the following:
-75,000 original KM's on car
-93-94 SR20DET blacktop with approx. 75,000KM's give or take 5,000
-Apexi intake filter with custum aluminum intake piping and RB25 MAF
-BEE-R 3" cat back
-turbo elbow with seperated wastegate and turbine exhuast for better spool up
-custom piping from elbow to catback with twister muffler, sounds great and at a very resonable volume
-2way LSD rear diferential
-93-94 entire powertrain
-R32 GTR front brakes (bigger than the popular 300zxTT upgrade)
-R32 master cylinder, and braided stainless steel brake lines all around, and new DOT4 synthetic brake fluid.
-5lug hubs with SR20DET rear brakes
-GTR style front grill, painted to match body
-round projector headlights with square yellow fog lights, with new Zenon type bulbs
-S14 16" rims with 205/55 Fuzion ZRI's up front, and 225/50 fuzion ZRI's in rear.
-S14 interior, seats and colour scheme, with R32 GTR drivers seat as well.
-aftermarket pedals
-Brand new KYB AGX adjustable shocks/struts, with brand new tein type-S springs. rides alot nicer for daily driving than coilovers, but all you do is turn the dial and it's very firm for the track. With camber plates.
-Apexi AVCR boost controller. never run over 13PSI for track, 8-9PSI for street.
-allways used a turbo timer
-Autodream Eprom ECU, with good air/fuel ratios for higher boost, and no speed limiter.
-Greddy front mount intercooler with aluminum(hand polished)piping, and all new silicone couplers.
-Optima Yellow top spiral cell battery, with custom aluminum hold down
-Greddy type-S BOV, setup to recirculate back into the intake(the way all MAF vehicles should!)and installed close to the throttle body for quickest response.
-cusco strut bars front and rear
-hicas model sway bars front and rear with new stronger endlinks and poly-plastic type bushings.
-slotted subframe spacers
-New last summer pioneer premier deck with clarion speakers all around.
-recent tune up with new "7"heat range plugs, 300zxTT fuel filter, oil&filter. did the tranny and diff oils less then 10,000KM's ago.
The bad:
-The rears are just some free A/S tires so the serious test drivers can have a little fun without costing me money. still grip well, but nothing special, and a little taller sidewall than normal.
-rear bumper has some paint fade
-driver door has a little clear coat peel
(all body imperfections are quite minor, as you shall see in the photos)
Over all, the car runs like a dream. great for daily driving, or track. I only raced it once, autocrossed it with NECC, and it performed beautifully! very predictable and great handling, with TONS of torque down low! I never drifted or drag raced it, that's not my thing, but the car would be great for either if that's what your into. Almost everything on this car has been upgraded the right way, designed for the potential of more power. all you would really need is a fuel pump, injectors, turbo, re-flash ECU chip, and you could be in the 300-400WHP range(depending on turbo choice) and it probably wouldn't cost you more than $2000(once again, depending on turbo choice). HUGE potential!!
Reason for selling: I really don't want to. I lOVE this car as I have dumped coutless hours and dollars into her to make it exactly what I wanted. and having accomplished that, I am very happy with her. however I have decided what i want to do with my life and need to go to school, and that is a priority to me. so I need the money, that is the only reason. it will hurt to see it go.
I live in Grande Prairie(about 450KM's from edmonton) but I could bring it too edmonton for a VERY serious buyer. and can post pics within a few days(for serious buyers) of anything they want to see.
I am going to start another thread in the photo/video area. and I will have a few extra photos on that one. please direct all non-sales related comments too that thread, thanks.http://forums.780tuners.com/showthr...;threadid=49241
So, all that being said, I have invested over $20,000 into this car. even with most labour being done by me. last summer, before alot of this work was done, I had it apraised at $16,000, and I have since dumped a few more grand into it. the apraisal will be included so you can insure it properly. now obviously I have to take a big cut here:
So I think I shall start by asking $15,000 OBO
- now $14,000 OBO.
(If you think that's too much, you can let me know through PM) |

I was looking for something like this next year as i didn't want to tie up money in something over the winter. But i wouldn't mind looking at it anyways. I also live in Grande Prairie. I'll pm you if you don't mind me looking at it.

| what year is it?? lol? I don't think you stated what Year it was! :p |
|
|
| twinturbo |
it's a 1990.
and someone asked, yes it is a blacktop(not a painted redtop)
And I didn't go into detail, but i think it's obvious from the pics: there is no rust. the only spec of it you'll find is on the jack points, none on the body, or strut towers, or inner fenders(as is common on S13's). |

well i had a chance to check out the car today and the pics don't do this car justice. from the interior thats just like new to all the mods, this car is unbelievable.
he doesn't really want to sell it but with school he needs money for that. someone should seriously take a look at this car. |

looking at that and my 240 I have to leave at home now makes me want it so much more :(
have to work so much to get this, if you have it in decemeber still you'll have a super interested buyer :D |
|
|
| twinturbo |
well, considering I have had tons of interest, but no offers. it might still be around come december!
It's hard to sell a nice looking car like this at the end of summer! I wish it would though so I could go to school.
Are you in GP? you should send me a PM when your going to be around and we can meet up. |

All right, I realize it's a bad time to sell a sports car. so how does $14,000 OBO sound?
I'm taking a HUGE cut here! |

5 lug hubs from a s14 were probably used |
|
|
| twinturbo |
| I added the brakes after I already had the car. the 5lug hubs were added right before i got the car. the hubs have a aftermarket brand sticker on them, but I forget what brand they are. The brakes I got off of a guy with a wrecked GTR. They have the directional heat vanes inside, and they are the right measurements. I am not sure why they aren't drilled, maybe early GTR's didn't have them yet? maybe this guy had replaced the rotors with an aftermarket rotor. I am not sure. But they have very little wear on them and they are straight, so that's all I really care about. since they were designed to be VERY effective brakes on the GTR, throwing them on a car 700 pounds lighter makes for an AMAZING brake upgrade |
