hey guys,

name is jace i am a big fan of S-chassis and used to own a red s14a which was my first real turbo car, but since then i tried to move on and be respectable with my money and went on to buy a corolla sportivo which i sold to my older brother which is now the new Racegraphix promo car, 6 months later here i am introducing my new money pit! biggrin.gif i like to keep and modify my cars with a clean fairly subtle appearance, not a fan of big chunky bodykits big flares and the likes.

this is my 02 ADM spec S GT s15! bought it basically stock with just a full exhaust and coilovers and at the time picked it up for an absolute steal!

current mods;

motor/fuel/exhaust;
standard internals
custom no-hole fmic
turbotech V2 mbc
k&n pod
11psi
walboro 255
gktech stainless bell dump
gktech stainless midpipe
high flow cat
custom stainless mandrel bent cat back
finished with a fagnaflow cannon

suspension/arms;
HKS hypermax III coilovers
generic camber arms
generic toe arms

wheels/brakes;
ROTA SVN-R 18x9 +20 & 18x10 +20 finished in matte black
sporting forceum d850 205/40 and forcuem hexa 225/40 respectively
stock brakes/generic pads

interior/audio/visual
standard leather front seats
pioneer headunit
6" 3-way audiolines all round
calibre boost gauge in-dash
duralumin gear knob
various hanging ornaments tongue.gif

exterior/body
JDM DC2 integra front lip
Rolled and pulled/flared 1 1/2" rear guards
JDM JJR wind deflectors
spec R side skirts
deleted gt wing
de-badged rear and blacked out front emblem
blacked out rear reflectors
D-max roof spoiler
Nismo S-Tune side and bonnet decals courtesy of racegraphix. trying to stand out amongst the many s15's.

that's about all there is, it has come a fair way from when i bought it almost 5 months ago. but there is still much more to do before i can consider it finished "cosmetically".

future mods to do are;
fit my innovate wideband
fit a origin boot lip
black out or clear side indicators
tint windows
smoke rear light indicators
swaybars front & rear
front strut brace
nistune possibly ways down the road
+ various things i can't think of right now.

let me know what you think!

    Certainly stands out from other s15's but I wouldn't call it clean and subtle. The stickers really give it a fast and the furious look which probably isn't good. It looks good other than that.

    How does it compare to your old 14 in terms of interior, drive and feel? Looks clean love the leather

    each to thier own, they may look fnf to some, i have had people say that. and personally i would have never done this to any of my older cars back in the day, but i think the iconic nismo s-tune decals stand out really well on either black white or silver cars. i took a real liking to how they had them on both the r34 gtr and 350z models they produced. again, each to thier own. smile.gif also is a way of helping promote my brothers business (the kind of work he deals with stickering/decaling race cars).

    not surprisingly dude the drive and feel are very similar, s15 being more planted with its extra stock body reinforcement. interior i think is a million times better imo. leather was a bonus! also, this thing feels like it goes alot stronger at 11psi than the s14, and the 14 was running 1bar with more mods. still love the s14 shape though.

    one thing I would do..... make the redline touch the headlight, looks like it's hanging in mid air to me

    that is exactly how it is on the nismo s-tune and supercoppermix s15's. i thought about putting them directly vertical over the headlight but chose to go with the original layout. though i probably coulve shifted them all further to the right to make it look abit more centred to the headlight. meh all good.

    i did expect people to not like the decals, particularly the bonnet decals which i have thought twice about removing them. it's probably not for everyone but they way i see it, it makes the car stand out, good or bad that's totally up to you to decide. i build my cars for my personal enjoyment, if everyone else like it well that's a bonus. thumbsup.gif

    Looks phat jace! because i did them tongue.gif but seriously how does it look fast and furious?? its more of a "replica" you dont go bagging people with
    GT-HO phase 3 ford replicas etc because they put stripes on theirs do you?

    dont worry what other people say, its your car you like it thats all that matters!

    changed out my fuel filter today in an effort to fix my low-mid rpm lean out. filter was feeling restricted when blowing into it and i could tell it was a fair way past it's usable reliable filtration, that being said it was an oem from factory and after 145,000k's it really did need changing. the fuel coming out the inlet side was brown/black and very gritty. new filter could litterally sigh through the inlet and there was no restriction at all. heres hoping it help's!
