Murds S13

[Murd 55]

ok so here is my 1990 (dirty) Nissan Silvia s13.

 

powered by a N/A ca18de.

 

has only broken twice so far :y:

 

but anyway story behind the dirty neesan, my merc decided that it didn't like driving anymore, still not entirely sure whats up there and well it is at my grandpas is port broughton about a 2 hour drive, so i began my search for another car after looking through many cars for sale i came across a s13 on gumtree pretty cheap i thought yeah not bad so gave the girl a ring and yeah went and had a look the next day. did i mention the car was located in pt pirie even further than the merc currently. worked all day then drove to pirie and back damn was i tired, anyway. drove like a dream all the way home didnt miss a beat. better than the merc. lol!

 

so anyway so far I've managed to loose the clutch as the master was deceitfully stained and looked like it was full but no was empty and i couldnt get any gears. but easy to fix and not been an issue since, also on the weekend managed to split a heater hose of some description, wasn't that a fun/scary 20 mins driving home (after spending about 2 hours trying to find where it was leaking and steaming from!) oh yeah after i fixed the heater hose i got experimenting with some night shades!

 

ok so here are some photos now.

 

so tempted to try the rims on the coupe think offset would be terrible thou! 205/15's!!

Think she just topped it up. Did you work out where the fluid had gone? Ie do you have a trail of bubbly paint under the master?

 

oh and did you think those $25 autobarn jacks were to cheap to pass up too!!? :y:

[Murd 55]

was like $40 when i got it,

 

the clutch was pretty stiff when i got it obviously it just decided that day that it had enough, doesnt seem to be leaking anywhere i think it was just low to begin with, if not its an incredibly slow leak as i havent any issues since and havent needed to top it up and this was 2 or 3 weeks ago. no paint seems to be bubbly under the master, and have never had any drips in the driveway.

[Murd 55]

was so sick of cd's skipping found this HU brand new and was awesome cheap so got it!

 

and the sticker i made myself, i was gna order offline but too impatient :thumbsup: (same as my signature) there are so many other cool ones on ebay!!

[Murd 55]

got some vertex sideskirts and lookin at gettin just a front lip and thats about it, as I'm not into big flashy bodykits.

 

i think it got a bit warped today in the sun as it was in the tray of a ute all day so it looks shitty fit but it isnt when you hold it properly.

 

 

 

EDIT: had to take the front mudflap off to test fit, then continued to take the rest off as they look so damn tacky!!

hows the rolla?

[Murd 55]

shed going up soon then some work will happen on the rolla I'm sure, taken a paycut so will be slower now, but once the shed is up means i can finally strip her all down and start to rub her back and get her straight.
