In 2003, I remember my homeboy TJ aka TDJ (D standing for douche), bought me my very first Hyper Rev magazine when he was in Japan. At the time I had an 89′ S13 coupe, it was my first real wheel drive car, a pignose coupe, I loved the car. I had picked it up for $900.00, and it was slow as hell, but I was already envisioning the slew of modification that I was going to throw at the car. My eyes intensely scanned threw this “Bible” that was brought back to me from Japan, The Silva Hyper Rev. Amongst all of these pages of material that I could not understand (because I’m not Japanese), there were quite few aesthetically pleasing aero kits for the S13 Silvia, but there was one company that stood above all, and that was Garage Mak. Their material was sooo ill; from their front end conversions all the way to gangster super wide fender flares with rivets, I wanted it all. So, courtesy of their website I am going to share a couple of pictures courtesy of Garage Mak for those that just don’t know.
This is the exact car that sold me on this company their S13 Time attack car. At the time of the Hyper Rev that I had 2003-04, I believe this car was Silver with Black fender flares, and a lot more aggressive. Who knows, my Hyper Rev was stolen, and this is the oldest Garage Mak picture I can find, courtesy of Sport Compact Car.

This picture is of the current S13.5 Time Attack beast if I am not mistaken. If anyone has a picture of that S13 with black overfenders (white TEs) and S15 conversion before they went all white, let me know!
Here is some of their new material for S13 180sx
S14
S15
So Sick, all of it, I guess I am just sold on the Time Attack look, mixed with street and drift, it’s just classy IMO :).
As far as my S13 went? Well, unfortunately I went through a slew of unfortunate events at the time and had to get rid of the car, I should have just sweat it out, but I was being a bitch at the time, and I sold it. Live and learn; don’t give up!
