Yer £50 each donnas made up BARGAIN

Worked alot of hours but was somthing i wanted plus they are super light and save paint when it comes to getting the car painted but thats nextyear.

Want to get the rear subframe done now once thats done i'll attempt to get the arms lined up propley.

My disks still havnt turned up yet which is getting alittle frustrating as i want the hydro fitted but cant do it till the disks are here cos the standard calipers are crap and the skyline ones wont work on my standard disks.

If i am aloud to play with the car on sunday (got wedding bits to do again ) will try and get the manifold and elbow on as i have the correct gaskets now. Trying to as much as poss before my wedding this way i dont have much to do before the drift day (if i make it )

Which is brave for me as i dont mind messing with suspension and body bits but hate messing with the engine side of things cos i dont want to kill it

thought thats wot your speciality is

No scott my speciality is taking them aprt when they work and never put them back together.

(right i really need to go to bed )

We will make a spanner monkey out of you yet. lol

I am trying

if anything like today is anything to go by then hell no


Well this is a job i dont want to do again.

Managed to fit my manifold today what a pain in the arse it was too. I tell you 200's are built by small children or men with very small hands as trying to get to the last two bolts on the car was nothing short of a piss take took me for ever LOL.

Anyways the manilfolds on but couldnt get the elbow on as i need to get some heat into the nuts/studs holding it on as YET AGAIN there all rounded off or just stuburn and wont turn.

Was hoping to have it done today but nevermind atleast its started.

spot the mistake

Been a while since i updated this.

Been away got married like the fool i am so little has been fitted but now the wedding and parties are out the way work has started.

tub-Manifold and apex elbow are all together and water feed looped back into the block and no longer through the turbo so fingers crossed the car will run cooler at driftdays.

bought my sil80 chargerspeed 30mm wider front fenders.





and bumper lights (not my car in pic)

Carbon boots on just thinking if i should rivet the window in aswell as the glue???

Car will be running on my nextday off which is monday and then the frontend will be changed over by the start of oct.

Well bit of a mixed day today.

tried to fit the manifold and elbow on the car and for some reason the elbow wont go on the exhaurst will this be becasue its off a s14 and mines a s13???? not worth me putting my old elbow on as its blowing so will have to get another Apex one.

Cracked on changing the frontend and putting the boot on (still havnt glued the window in yet still need to pick the glue up. Panel gaps need sorting aswell but its comming together and should looks great.

Getting there with the body Tone

Stay away from anything technical - you and engines just dont go

Well, when I say they don't go, theres only one place for them to go... the scrappy

Looking good.

How easy does the PS13 stuff fit on the S13? I know the Sil80 came about from the fact silvia front ends are easier and cheaper to replace but ive no idea how much of a job it is.

Joe i need to learn

The change overs easy enough just a straight swap for the wings bumper and bonnet (well its ment to be)

Need brackets for the lights and possible a bracket or 2 making up for the bumper in the middle.

Getting there.

Wasnt sure what pins to get for the bonnet but think i will get these



And finish off putting the frontnd together.

Had some spare cash in the bank that i didnt think i had so bought the aftermarket elbow the right one this time so hoping this arrives before my days off so i can get the car running again so i can turn it round and take the rear subframe off ready for sandblasting and painting plus have the new solid bushes fitted.

Once all thats done i'll fit the hydro (with alittle help) rear skyline calipers and disks.

Got a nice shiny elbow in the post today and some nice clear front bumper lights for the ps13 bumper so fingers crossed the car will be running and the frontend on by tuesday.

Fitted the eblow in the front room which the wife loved LOL.



Its all ready to go on monday now.

Its even fitted the right way this time LOL
