ok, before anybody says it, i did search.

now, i'm asking the silvia community for a favour. i'm currently building a model of an S13 silvia (JDM spec), and i intend on making a 1/24 scale SR20DET for it (there is no SR20DET made in 1/24 scale).

now, i would like to ask you all, could i have some pics of SR20DET engines, as well as the engine bay.

BTW: if anybody does help me, could you sit a ruler or some other measuring tool on the engine cover so i can get measurements.


thank you all in advance

a ruler? just make sure it fits the engine bay... and make it proportional...

any pics of previous models you made? i want to see your work.

sorry these are old pics but what i can do is go measure the valve cover for u later and ill post the measurements

thank you all, the ruler is only so i could get measurements of parts, but sidewayzs13 said he'd measure it for me so i dont need it anymore.

and once more, thank you all.


the project may not get started soon (school) but when it does, i will show the results.


this is what the engine will be put into.

(i ended up deciding against 2tone, so it will be full orange.)

2 tone looks really cool.

im a lil' sketchy about the color choices tho... two tone cars shouldn't have D1 paint schemes... it should look more old-sku / classy.

yea i got a 180sx type x model. I think its made by fujimi??? I bought it for like 10 bux. I randomly came across it. Its still in the box though. I can make it left or right hand drive. It comes with type x tails, or the regulars. Its pretty cool i guess. Im just not patient enough to do it all.
