Didn't realise how much you spent already. Very unfortunate, because about 4 months ago I would have bought all the engine bits off of you. Think you won't have any issues selling it to be honest.

Why the change of plans then?

Thumbs up

think you should carry on mate and finish off the ultimate silvia, i have had loads of bad vibes and critisism about my silvia but i have just ignored everyone and spent even more money to get the job finished. I think if you stuck at it you would be glad of it in the long run

Hi mate - Just nipped back on the board (Been a busy week for me!), and saw this?!?!

What's up mate? - we're all rooting for you to complete this and show all the so-called middle of the road "big boys" a thing or two!

(some) people slagged me off for how much I spent, but I'm WELL chuffed with my car, and it impresses the f*ck out of anyone brave enough to park their arse in the passenger's (or drivers!) seat, and that's what helps make it worthwhile mate! - f*ck the naysayers, and by all means ditch it if you're serious about doing so, but you know you'd LOVE to get it completed and kicking scooby/evo/my arse!

So how come you don't have the modifying bug anymore mate?

Will have to give you a ring, methinks, and catch up...

I agree with Japster Shaun.
Take a break, step back and close the garage door on it for a few weeks, you'll be amazed how quickly the 'need for speed' will return. i was in the same situation, spent all winter frigging around with the car, missed the start of the season by 3 months and was ready to '4 star and a match' the bloody thing, had a break and im mega up for it now.
Dont throw in the towel Big Guy, your previous car was an inspiration to many people including myself, be great to see S13 eater become 'Maclaren F1 eater'
as has been said before its helluva lot harder to be a pioneer and innovator than follow a well trodden path.
Maybe if we hide your car and only let you have it back when you promise to finish it with no less than 750hp?
