Hey guys,
Just wanted to share a unique car that a buddy has been sitting on for about a year.
Car has every nismo catalog part for the S14 including cams, injectors(550s), turbo, lsd and suspension. Gives it a nice idle andthe power comes on hard and fast but it's so well balanced.
Compared to my Autech Ks(440s) with it's upgrades this car out of the factory is like apples and oranges.
Japanese owner removed the pin striping and riced out the interior with red Leds. I really dig the blue powder coated VC.
Buid date: 1994
270 bhp @ 6000 rpm / 346 Nm of torque.
Top speed of 274 km/h Seeing a trend here?
Nismo/Tomei 264 cams,springs,retainers,injectors,pump and turbo.
Nismo/cusco : FMIC
Nismo copper rad
Suspension:
Nismo Coilovers
Nismo F/R STBs
Nismo Power brace
Nismo tension,toe,traction, control arms.
Nismo wheels, steering, seats, knobs,pedals, cluster.

WOW. definately a car to keep in garage and NEVER let out again lol. that hood scoop looks out of place. is that nismo piece too?
zac 3ne2nr
08-16-2011, 08:34 PM
It is. It was intended to have a TMIC(like the pulsar and BBs) and the nismo/cusco fmic was an option.

No way never heard from anyone who actually has a 270r. What are the production numbers on them? I had one in gran turismo lol.
Just looked up the numbers and only 50 were made.
zac 3ne2nr
08-16-2011, 08:57 PM
30 made with 3 kept as test/production vehicles. I'm open to correction but that's what I know.

I like everything but the hood scoop. The car would look even better with Jordies wheels on it. Same shit, better sizes.
LOL this car is the epitomy of mid 90's import styling. So cool.
I wonder if you can still get the factory 270R decals from Nissan. Or get it replicated. Just restore it like new, maybe some 10mm spaces for the wheels, and thats it. Drive it like a total boss time machine.

The brakes are R33 front and rear, guess Nissan knew we'd want to do this swap ourselves.
@ Santi :Jordie's wheels would look dope on it.He better keep the R32 locked up.
that's a negative on the seats.
Yes 10xxx actual kms, car was purchased as a keep sake. So plans for it are to refinish the paint and drive occasionally. You can't mod something that's rare, just defeats the purpose.
Everything about it is 90s styled as you guys say, and while there are thing about it that aren't trendy or kinda make you go What was nissan thinking, at the end of the day it's a 270R.

isnt it supposed to be AWD?
i was under the impression that they took the a Transverse GTiR drivetrain, and dumped it in an S chassis. hence the top mount intercooled AWD.
i never seen any engine shots of the ACTUAL 270R
I wish nismo would have made a Kouki version of the 270R... GOD

No. That really wouldn't work at all. It's mainly a 270hp version of the SR and some other upgrades and decals.

s14unimog
08-17-2011, 11:55 AM
I agree with most everybody, take it back 100% stock and hold onto it; slaughter a standard model. I really wish it had the top mount on it, I've always wondered how that all fit under the hood.
On second thought buy you a nice set of wheels, in better fitment/sizes and leave the 270 wheels at the house. I don't see any reason to keep the fitment period, just so long as you don't have to modify the fenders. You can always put the standard wheels back on.

I am letting you know I have the vector file for the stripes if you want it to put back on .. I have a client of mine who spent a shit ton of money try to recreate a 270R simply because there impossible to find.. I you want ill send you the vector file for free for the stripes .. please bring it back to perfection that car is iconic ... I am not sure you realize what you have .. I am pretty sure any vinyl place near you can cut the vinyl for you from the file.. Let me know

Yet another one of my "unicorn" cars. The 270R is just unheard of.

While I think the 270R is exceedingly ugly, its completely fucking awesome that you have one! Definitely a piece of Nissan history right there. I'd love to see some shots of the rear seats, it looks like they're the same pattern as the fronts. I've seen one of those front seats on Up Garage before I didn't realize it was a 270R seat though.

KiLLeR2001
08-17-2011, 08:19 PM
Pretty legit. I'd get those vinyls back on there. But maybe a new paint job first. Make it look like it just rolled out of the factory.
edit: I think the only car more rare than this one would be the Nismo 400R.

and the interior
and the cluster
and the steering wheel
and the Nismo tuned suspension
and the chassis bracing
and the obvious body pieces
other than that yeah, is mainly a 270hp version of the SR...

08-17-2011, 11:34 PM
Something to cherish. Never seen anyone own one of these before. Id make it as original as possible and keep it clean and classy. You know if you fuck this one up your head is on the chopping block lol.

08-17-2011, 11:47 PM
Agreed with others that the hood scoop looks very odd and funky and doesn't go well with the car's overall look. That's probably the only flaw I'd point out.
Hopefully, the owner will give it necessary exercise every once in a while to keep the engine fresh and healthy.
An absolute piece of history right there.

I've heard of one here in Toronto. The guy's dad has business interests in Japan and the local arm was able to get him one.
I hope to have a shot of it soon to share.
All in all, nice to see a reliably tuned SR from factory.

I didn't see the need to go into detail, since google could certainly cover what this thread hasn't. But in general, the car would be considered lightly modified by virtually any standard. Reorienting the engine, AWD, etc. is certainly not lightly modified. I didn't say it wasn't cool, but it's not some crazy custom hack job.

08-18-2011, 11:13 AM
Very nice and unique. I wonder why it doesn't have a Nismo cluster though, especially considering the 274km/h top speed.....

I'm all for the restoring it to original move, but anyone else with me on feeling like it deserves the rest of the period correct Nismo peices? If I could get my hands on the strut bars/cluster/wheels/anything else Nismo made for S14s that didn't come on it, I'd toss those on there too. But nothing without Nismo on it or not period correct(IE 350Z nismo wheels would be a no-go).

^ Thats the R33 GTR LM. created as a road going car so nissan could use it as a base to make the race car for le Mans. I think there were only a couple made.

The 270R was only made in 1994 making it a zenki, there is no such thing as a kouki 270R.

Looking back through my notes, yes, you are 100% correct. I saw the 400R (in silver) at Zele Performance in Yokohama, not at the Zama DNA Garage. I got them confused.

That's not a 400R. 400R is still a regular bodied R33.
That's a LM edition meant for getting the car legal for racing. Then there's a LM edition of the R33 GTR to make things more confusing...
