why did you need to buy an SR? did the stock one blow?

B/c the stock motor is a sr20de (non turbo)

Yup. They made 200rwhp N/A too lol.
Just curious: Why not N/A-T? New HG and turbo setup wouldve been just as much as a new SR.

03-02-2011, 01:30 PM
thanks guys,
yea i like the blue wheels, cant wait to see them outside when the cars done.
yea i'm leaving it stock body...for now, maybe a front lip after awhile who knows

well that was the first plan.... didnt work out that way clearly.
but then I got a crazy deal on a sr20 and now i can keep the stock motor in storage so if i go to sell the s15 i can just put it back to stock and keep the built motor and all the goodies for the next car.

There's laws preventing the importation of cars never sold in the United States. To do it legally costs high dollars and a crash test car or a letter from the manufacturer. 99-100% of the ones in the country are in some way, shape, or form, illegal. People will argue with me on that, but the laws are clearly available here for those of you wishing to read: http://www.nhtsa.gov/cars/rules/import/

why dont they just cut the chassis numbers out of an s14 and weld them into the likes of an s15..??

Because that would fall into the illegal category, lol. Most people will argue that their car is legal because they may have been able to acquire a title and insurance for the car but, that is only on a state level. From a federal standpoint the vehicle is still illegal. No big deal as long as they never get in an accident or get a ticket while driving their "titled" illegal car.

It's not unheard of for people to swap vins out of a 240sx into a Skyline/Silvia which I believe is what you're talking about. And then register the car as a 240sx.
However this is very illegal. I think VIN tampering is a felony? Not worth if for me, but some people bust nuts over these cars enough to go to jail over one.
Anyways clean S15. You are a lucky man. The singled supra in the background pics looks like a beast too.

Just curious: Why not N/A-T? New HG and turbo setup wouldve been just as much as a new SR.
im pretty sure it was 165hp at the crank if its a type S or an sr20de. Regarding the importation of cars there's ways of legally registering a imported car. However its gotta go through US customs, it takes tons of research, money, and hundreds of requirements. There's also ways of getting the car registered under the radar of US customs as well, you just gotta know/ find loop holes.
To the OP: you dont know how lucky you are to have an s15, many of the zilvians dream cars, me included! :drool:

You're in Ireland so you have nothing to worry about obviously. It's just our lame ass government wastes our tax dollars cracking down on enthusiasts cars.

its not our fault half of the fucking country is too stupid to drive without crashing
if drivers tests were like 200% harder then we would have better drivers and such ratings wouldn't really be needed

Very curious why you put a fitting on the intake side of the valve cover where that rubber grommet goes as that is supposed to feed vacumm from the head on to that side of the motor. there obviously isn't anywhere oem a big ass -8 or 10 fitting (looks like you used 10) to mate with on that side of the motor.
Just curious.
Here is mine, I actually left that side alone

It's nice to see a few Canadians who are waiting till the 15 year rule is in our favor and the S15 is legal. I'm planning to buy one once they are street legal! (I've already started to stock up on parts!).
And I love the rim color on this car! I'm watching this thread for sure.

VTC has better torque characteristics and it matches the car but yes it's a matter of preference (or in this case, price)
I trashed my VCT:fawkd:

You're in Ireland so you have nothing to worry about obviously. It's just our lame ass government wastes our tax dollars cracking down on enthusiasts cars.
OMG NO CRASH TEST RATINGS!!111!! WE MUST SEIZE IT AT ONCE. :cops:
No, you can call and thank Mercedes Benz. Back in the 80's exchange rates made it very profitable to import "grey market" cars from Europe, Mercedes, BMW and Porsche. You buy a car there for 15,000, ship it for 500 and sell it here for 20k because dealers here are charging 30k.
Benz went to congress and argued the price gouging was necessary because of additional safety and environmental testing and millions of people will die each year if people are aloud to keep importing a dozen or so Euro-tuned cars with glass headlights.
Needless to say, they fell for it and thus the 25 year rule was born.

15 year importation rule (In Canada). So in January 2014 we can import a 99' spec model (depends on the manufactured month). And yes, I'm waiting for one myself...
And I can get a fucking GTR already...

Very curious why you put a fitting on the intake side of the valve cover where that rubber grommet goes as that is supposed to feed vacumm from the head on to that side of the motor. there obviously isn't anywhere oem a big ass -8 or 10 fitting (looks like you used 10) to mate with on that side of the motor.
Just curious.
Here is mine, I actually left that side alone

How'd you get the s15 into the US. I thought they couldn't be imported.
Are you dumb?

07-29-2012, 11:23 AM
Because that would fall into the illegal category, lol. Most people will argue that their car is legal because they may have been able to acquire a title and insurance for the car but, that is only on a state level. From a federal standpoint the vehicle is still illegal. No big deal as long as they never get in an accident or get a ticket while driving their "titled" illegal car.
I'm sure not every officer even has a clue the car is illegal when he issues a ticket, but let's say he does know the car's illegal, what would happen? Citation? Bigger ticket? Or would the car just be impounded?

I'll add my 2 cents: I have a friend who got his R33 GTS-T seized by the feds because of an illegal title. My buddy ran the plates with the DMV and it was registered as a 1992 Nissan Sentra.
