Well after almost 3 years, I can finally say im the new owner of an 88' Silhouette.

Bought it for $6k

Mods: well just an exhaust, Rb25 with Rb30 bottom end, external wastegate and BOV with a T78 turbo and microtech, Has run 310rwhp on 9psi.

Guy will be tunning it to bout 200-250rwhp till i can get use to it and will bump it up gradually to bout 20psi with a cooler. Should make 400+rwhp but this wont be for a while.

Took it for a drive and its not that bad to handle, did give it some and wasnt too bad. exhaust will be getting fixed cause of a slight rattle and a newer clutch will be fitted aswell.

Should be out cruising in a few weeks once i get some more cash for roadie and rego. Pics attached below.

oh and thanks to mike and jaime for karting me back and forth over the weekend to see the car.

    • This is a recipe for disaster* Note: Disaster is relative. The thing that often gets lost in threads like this is what is considered acceptable poke and compromise between what one person considers 'good' looks and what someone else does. The quoted specs would sit absurdly outside the guards with the spacers mentioned and need  REALLY thin tyres and a LOT of camber AND rolling the guards to fit. Some people love this. Some people consider this a ruined car. One thing is for certain though, rolling the guards is pretty much mandatory for any 'good' fitment (of either variety). It is often the difference between any fitment remotely close to the guards. "Not to mention the rears were like a mm from hitting the coilovers." I have a question though - This spec is VERY close to what I was planning to buy relative to the inboard suspension - I have an offset measuring tool on the way to confirm it. When you say "like a mm" do you mean literally 1mm? Or 2mm? Cause that's enough clearance for me in the rear :p I actually found the more limiting factor ISNT the coilover but the actual suspension arms. Did you take a look at how close those were?
    • @GTSBoy yeah sorry i know thery are known for colors bud those DBA are too in colors 🙂 Green will be good enough for me  
    • That's my life. Past-Duncan has a lot to answer for
