I’ve always had a thing for cars that look intense while looking used to hell and back. The scars they hold tell a thousand stories, it always makes a car more interesting. While browsing on 7Tune.com I ran into this beat up Silvia S13.

Also in his arsenal are 6 Work VsKF with different offsets. When he gets too fast, he uses slotted stock S13 Rotors/calipers and pads in the rear and R33 Skyline GTS25t breaks in the front. The body panels are from Vertex and topped with a D-Max roof and Trunk spoiler. All this is dropped on Tein HE Coilovers.

Yezzir they came in today! Stoked! Big thanks for Chris at StudioRhoad for vectoring these for me and another big thanks to Timm at VoodooGarage for cutting them. Without these two fellows these stickers would still be chilling in my hard-drive. They made this possible!

For prices and all that jazz, follow this link!

It would appear there is a big possibility Nomuken has decided to switch from his Nissan ER34 to a newer GTR. There has been talk of him doing so quite a bit over the past few months, mainly due to Blitz’s release of their tuned GTR back in early 2009. The car features a manual gearbox, instead of the paddle-shifters and has been converted to RWD. It’s natural to convert cars to RWD, many drivers have done so (Team Orange’s Subaru Cars, Foust’s Scion etc) but this one just feels funny. This car is also bigger than the R34, so it will definitely be one of the biggest cars on the track if Nomuken follows through with this.

We’ll know for sure in March when D1GP hits Ebisu Circuit.

The car gets noticed by many wherever it goes due to many reasons, one being the sound it makes. When behind the car you notice  the huge exhaust system. Then you start to notice the stunning paint job and start looking at the little things. Then the car gets even more intriguing. I have seen quite a few cars in my day and this is the first that I have ever seen with Veilside rims. 18×10 in the rear and 18×9 in the front, which seem to be a perfect fit. The black A and B pillars paired with the Seibon carbon fiber hood adds another nice touch. When you make it to the interior of the car a couple things catch your eye. I first noticed the Apexi AVC-R in the middle of the dash where most people have a cd player. As my eyes then wandered over the matching red Sparco seats I found the boost guage, which reads up to 2.0 bar.

When you turn the key all hell breaks lose. This is where this Silvia begins to become very unique. The heart of this car comes from an RB26 out of an R34 that is fed by a pair of HKS turbos.  Which happens make 733hp on 18psi and the power is put down through a R33 Skyline 5 speed gearbox and rear end. Although when I drove the car it was not at those kind of numbers, I wouldn’t  trust myself with a machine like that either. When you get past the detail and the beauty of the Veilside rims you notice the 4 piston Brembo calipers up front and the 2 piston calipers in the rear. This brake system on the Silvia is a tried and true setup as they are the OEM calipers on other cars such as the 350z, Evo and STi.

For this shoot I picked up the Silvia and had it for about 2 hours. In the short amount of time that I had the car to myself I fell in love with it. The noises that it made, the sounds from the twin turbos as it began to make boost were just incredible. The steering input and the feeling from shifting the Skyline tranny are definitley going to leave an impression with me for quite some time. I had always wanted to drive a car with the heart on soul of Godzilla and this Silvia sure had both.
