Default Its getting older....(1988)

My red Silvia Turbo was bought from a friend (lady) at 33,000 miles fives years ago.Now on 120.000. Works like a dream except for traditional rotting rear door due to spolier. Anybody any ideas before I dare take the step to unbolt and reveal?

Pray? I have yet to dare either.

I'm not quite new.. i've had my s12 for almost two years (and been lurking here & sxoc almost as long). It was previously my mum's car ..and after loving the car for all the years it was hers i nabbed it first chance i had when she bought her rx-8.

Current mods:
Lovely gunmetal paintjob.
Modified airbox.

Coming soon:
T25 turbo - refurbished
Cossie intercooler
Electric fans
New ignition coils (does anyone else do this?)
Custom exhaust (well, it kind of has to be)
Uprated brake pads
Grooved discs
K&N induction kit
KYB shocks all round
Chassis Dynamics lowering springs
Inovit gunmetal 'spirit' 17"x7's. (hopefully)
Walbro fuel pump
Uprated injectors
Dump valve (quiet one?)
Respray.
New wiper blades


I have far too many questions to ask, so im glad you're happy to answer!

Welcome to the site

What are your plans once the rear spoiler is removed? There are holes under here so unless your replacing the spoiler with another then these will need filing.

You can try and get your hands on an se rear spoiler which most people are, or search the scrappys for renault 19 16v , peugeout 405 ,and other rear spoilers as these have been tried and tested and look good.

Post some pictures up if you can mate, would be nice to see the s12
