ummmm.... nah man. you would have to do a cut and shut on it... the rear of a 180 is a hatch. that rear window and rear qtr window is definately R32... much different to the silvia.

Well that rules out my 2nd Theory :rofl: first one should still be right.

Think of what a half cut looks like. Its just the front end. Get a whole wrecked skyline, a welder, some paint, whalla!

the yanks got a wierd selection of S13's...

firstly witht he silvia convertibles, their doors had the seatbelts on em, so they looked real pox.

secondly they got factory sileightys.

and third but not least they never got a silvia, they only got the 180sx with a van engine called the 240sx.

Here's an idea... the 240sx is LHD, the 180sx is RHD, the panels are exactly the same, just mirrored. so get half a 180 and half a 240, put em together laterally and have a RHD AND LHD car... how cool would that be?

er... that bomex front end is heaps tough! :rofl: seeing as it has the guards on there already for a GTST id say the GTR ones would bolt straight up to it... then all u need is the GTR indicators... put a fat do-luck front end on it and finish it off with a nice big URAS kit... ie. skirts and rear bar

????... was that in reply to my post¿ now i'm confused.. lol! (only had one coffee this mornin)...

so the GTR/GTS-t pannels would bolt straight onto a ceffy no worries? no chopping and welding necesarry?

yeah, i was thinking that, GTR front end, nice side skirts and rear bar and then you're set! :D and you've got a shmik skyfiro... lol! that's such a kool name for a car! :headspin:

      Tein Circuit Master- rebuild worth it?

      By QB6SAGR · Posted

      Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻

      Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”

      Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
