I had no idea S15's came non turbo. The blue wheels look much better than the black ones.

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.

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/

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.

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!

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.

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
