Look at that sexy beast, rawr. The Silvia's new turbo showed up today. Went with a drop in style Garrett GTX2971 84 trim .64 a/r. @atpturbo got it out to me quick along with the oil feed line and restrictor. Will be my go to for Garrett turbos from now on. #garretturbo #atpturbo #sadiethesilvia https://www.instagram.com/p/CS5HH54BSjR/?utm_medium=tumblr

Ahhhh shit, whole bunch of parts showed up today. Rods, head studs, main studs, thrust bearing, and some other hardware. Next step is the machine shop! #SadietheSilvia https://www.instagram.com/p/CKGFbaSLZJh/?igshid=w9n4fkk2yl1d

Pulled the hvac controls out of the Silvia to check something out, and well I pulled it completely apart and cleaned it. All the buttons and sliders work so much smoother now. #SadietheSilvia #nissan #silvia #s13 #s13silvia https://www.instagram.com/p/B7A1OJ7Ajlz/?igshid=po91cvrcxy8t

Wired up the 3rd brake light in the new wing. Have to say I'm liking it more and more. #SadietheSilvia #nissan #silvia #s13 #s13silvia https://www.instagram.com/tunertimd/p/BvFcRrInCue/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=bkvlftc014p

Today's adventure in Sadie the Silvia... Failed attempt at leaving the neighborhood. #SadietheSilvia #nissan #silvia #s13 #s13silvia #pnw #rallycar https://www.instagram.com/p/Bteo8_znNzY/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=jti9ovhtro9q

Drove down to the Alki boat launch with @mariathemiata and finally took some good pictures of Sadie the Silvia. She might need a paint job but she's still sitting pretty. #SadietheSilvia #nissan #silvia #s13 #s13silvia #seattle #alkibeach https://www.instagram.com/p/BtH-SWAnNdo/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1fshlsb0qg9z0

Got my Nardi wheel. Going to enjoy finally having knee room and can start doing heel toe down shifts. Love the wheel but absolutely hate the hub and quick release from p2m. #SadietheSilvia #s13silvia #nissan #nardisteeringwheel #nardi https://www.instagram.com/p/CfapO9ALDac/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Finally pulled the trigger on a part I've wanted for years. Really looking forward to getting this on the Silvia and having knee clearance. Hunted for the best deal for a few years and will be using @mrsteeringwheel from now on. #nardi #nardisteeringwheel #mrsteeringwheel #SadietheSilvia https://www.instagram.com/p/Ce7xgZUrNQr/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Do it right the first time. Being cheapis now costing me back pain. Putting in new valve springs would have been so much easier when I did the valve stem seals. #SadietheSilvia #sr20det https://www.instagram.com/p/CcJ3UrXLXKP/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Weather was finally nice enough yesterday for @mariathemiata to crawl under the car and pop a freeze plug in. Let the sealant cure for a day, and now it's time to bleed the coolant. Desided to unwrap the grill and found out it got cracked sometime in the last couple years. Really sucks since they've been discontinued. #SadietheSilvia #nissan #silvia #s13 #s13silvia #nissansilvia #sr20det #sr20 #redtopsr20 https://www.instagram.com/p/CbZFot4ObTT/?utm_medium=tumblr

Shout out to @dogaluffalo and @mariathemiata for helping me get the Silvia home. Knew I kept you two around for a reason lol. Get yourself good freind that is all. #SadietheSilvia https://www.instagram.com/p/Caf8XSDvkoT/?utm_medium=tumblr

And it's not like i wasn't out spending money on the car.... damn it #SadietheSilvia #sr20det https://www.instagram.com/p/Caf0fdsvkg_/?utm_medium=tumblr

Qell got a chance to inspect the intake manifold for restrictions because the engine BLEW OUT A FREEZE PLUG!!! WTF #SadietheSilvia #sr20det #redtopsr20 https://www.instagram.com/p/CaYtp8Drft_/?utm_medium=tumblr

Well this is why I haven't been posting about the Silvia's dyno day. For some reason the car stops picking up power once itson full boost and falls off hard after 6000rpm. Have pretty much narrowed it down to valve springs or exhaust manifold back pressure at this point. Really annoying but at least the car drives nice otherwise. #SadietheSilvia #sr20det #sr20redtop https://www.instagram.com/p/CaRK2JTrzti/?utm_medium=tumblr
