New Irish member, jdm s14a

Been meaning to join here for ages, should be fun

my machine, taken from another forum:

Alot of you will know the car from a while back and from when it was for sale. Some pics from Japan where it looked spotless.



Had a hard year in Ireland but thankfully I was not too late to save it.

Bought the car in May and havn't done a massive amount with it really. Want to get it to a nice road drift spec and be able to do afew drift practice days.
Will update spec list and stuff as i think of it.


Ok spec list.

Currrently 76,000kms on the car

Exterior:

DMAX type 2 kit
50mm rear overfenders
50mm front wings
Rear wiper removed
Black rear badge
Origin carbon roof spoiler

Interior:

2 black REACRO speeds
Supermade floor mats
R33 GTR single din guage unit
Nismo 80mm door mounted boost gauge and holder
Turbo Timer of some sort
JVC headunit with iPod connection
Big black Dildo
Nardi Torino
Works Bell Boss
Snap off adapter
Interior is spotless

Handling:

JIC Magic coilovers with top mounts
Front strut brace
2 way diff(unsure of make, wicked tight)
Tein front tension rods

Engine:

Full standard bare block rebuilt at 74,000kms by Bradley Motorworks
HKS front mount with custom hot pipe
GREDDY metal suction pipe
BB turbo

HKS turbo elbow

JIC decat
3 inch cat back
MBC .9 bar

Dishu!!!!!!

Fronts are 19" 11.5j Weds Kranze, on 245 Continental rubber, running a 5 mm spacer to clear the caliper, unsure of offest.

Rears are 19" 12j Amistad V's, on 245 cheepo tyres, no spacer, unsure of offest.

Right since buying the car i have done the following:

2 services in first few hundred km's as engine was only being ran in.

Pics:

Tein front tension rods, also fitted new oem track rod ends that day as the old ones were goosed.


Coilovers



Standard calipers shaved, some spastic wrote brembo on them with what looks like pencil

Swapped the wheel over, fits the boss thank christ


old wheel


Nardi Torino, always had a thing for these, look the job i think.

While the cat was in for the NCT got a load of heat wrap and did the decat. Plan on doing the elbow and downpipe when i get decent ones.


Before


After

Just wanna get the NCT sorted now and i can get her to where i want

Ya but that was free

This arrived:


old Knob:


New one:




Have not driven the car yet but looks cool, did sit in it making car sounds and the throw certainly feels longer but will be a great job when being thrown around and grabbing for gears.
