Thats because baileys are shit. Happened to one of my mates with a bailey, but another mate ran one fine
Thats why i wanna give the SSQV a whirl, or just make it chatter! Undecided!!
-
Ibis white
Would probably spit it's dummy out with an atmospheric bov due to having a maf sensor
When i done the baileys, idle was insane, and it kept stalling etc. But, my friend with a S14 runs a SSQV without any troubles... So i dont understand...
People "pidgeon mod" these which is basically blocking everything off and making it chatter. Tempted to have a go at that tonight.
-
now save up for that rb26 engine you know ya want to :)
Its a MASSIVE possibility.. It needs 11 wires to be pin swapped and it'll run!!!!
Respray first though. It looks horrendous as it is!

A litltle update;So after i bought..3" Downpipe3" Decat3" ExhaustI was basically time to fit...During...Wasn't too bad. I still have a blow coming from my manifold to turbo. But, if i get ahold of the horsham developments one im looking at i'll swap the gaskets etc over when that gets changed!After endlessly looking for an S14a wing to replace my fubbered one, i failed. So after umming & awrring over what to do. In the end i decided on some vented front wings. I understand they'll need slight prep and modification to fit. But, since the car will be in the bodyshop Monday for the next 2-3 weeks i thought why not... So these have been ordered...Then a few snaps my friend got whilst i was filling it up...That's all.. for now...

I definately wont be attending. Car goes in for a spray next week and itll be gone for 2/3 weeks!
And i dont trust my fiesta to make it the 120 mile round trip!!!!
Adam, Ghetto roadtrip in the ROVERRRR!?
-
BUMP! Need this gone to fund a FMIC on my silvia!

Appreciate the comments lads. Unfortunately, im more than happy to drive it around as is currently.
However, the father has given me an ultimatium. The driveway is no longer mine, i have to park it in the next street, and i have 2 months to move out if i dont spray it! - (Personally he loves it and just wants it looking awsome)..
Had another rain experience last night, and suprisingly it was very very tame, i just was gentle with the thing to be honest.
It looks like the spray may be delayed anyway as im having issues sourcing a replacment wing! I can find a S14 wing no worries. Finding the S14a wing is nightmare. I may bite the bullet and buy the vented 25mm extended wings them space the wheels to compensate.
Decisions........
Last night this happened....Ignore the fact its not on right. The 3" downpipe and decat is going on tonight to alloy it to meet with the other 2 exhaust hangers!
Just looking into manifolds currently

i wanna see this fiesta you got for 100 quid
It's a beast!
Well a small update.
I fitted a baileys dump valve yesterday. Well, it destroyed the drive ability. Stalling, bogging, ruff idle, no power! - basically the baileys was knackered. Put the standard recirc valve and hey presto. Perfect running again.
Had a small spending spree,
3" Downpipe
3" Decat
3" Catback
Induction kit & adapter plate
That'll be all on next week/end with abit of luck.
I also had my first 'raining' experience last night. Casually driving, 3rd gear. Tapped the throttle as I was doing 20mph on a roundabout. Tail went and I completely done a 180!! Turned around and some the same on the next roundabout.
The thing literally wants me dead! It's horrendously bad on a damp service!
It's also just been booked in for a full respray in 040 white, 9 days time I'll loose it for 2 weeks or so!
Big plans!
-
Might have this of you mate
Lemme know
-
What is that a driveshaft? or the prop going to the diff?
-
you have a silvia now ?? u still more than welcome buddy
Well 200sx s14a so technically not a silvia!
-
nice looking base to start with love the s14a's.
Any idea on what colour you're going for with the respray?
I'm tempted by 040 White. The starlet white. Its a base, and thats all i saw really! Or a gunmetal colour... too many choices!!!
-
I think i may have one. I can't remember i removed it. Im located in Eastbourne about 60/70 miles south of London.
I'll have to check and get back to you!
-
Go to a scrapyard and pull one out a UK Spec... itll be so much cheaper

So after selling my build adored Glanza for a price i think many here would find hard to resist. I bought a £100 Ford Fiesta. One owner from new, 93,000miles. But, it was an absolute DOG.
I attended BHP @ Lydden Hill and fell for a few 200sx's and i thought. I must get me a S14a as they look so much meaner than an S14.
So after counting my pennies, doing some homework and abusing the Fiesta for a week, i decided to take the plunge on one local to me. Now they suffer typically on rust being a 20 year old UK car. The engine bay rust points have all been seen to. The sills are the worst, its been undersealed, but i believe it'll need new sills welded in.
I paid peanuts for it, leaving me with over £2000 to "play" with. So, a full respray is on the cards, new sills and then slamming it on some slutty JDM alloys.
Pictures, you need to look threw the matt black paint job, as its a completely straight car without a dent or scatch. Its so clean. - Bar the wing when the guy left it in Asda to find someone had reshaped the wing!
The only pictures i have currently, i'll get some tomorrow once i service it and clean it up as best i can!
This is a major work in progress. So if any of you boys are RWD lovers, your see threw its misery!
I've already got a dumpvalve to fit tonight, and bought a decat, and a downpipe which will arrive Monday!
Modifcations so far;- Lowered on KYB shocks and eibach springs @ 40mm Do-Luck air filter - Original supplied.
- G-Reddy racing clutch Stage 1
- Mongoose cat back exhaust
- Navan rear spoiler unfitted white
- Urated speakers all round (sorry no silly subwoofer)
- Wolfrace 18in alloys 9.5j rear / 8.5j front 255/45/18 shoes all round no rubbing
So yeah. The glanza was a monster, but this is so fresh and new. And it scares the poo out of me!
-
Bought a Nissan 200SX S14a last night...
It needs TLC exterior but it drives so bloody lovely!
and being standard, she'll still flick sideways so easy!!!!
-
Boy's im out.
Sold the Glanza. However, i may attend in the Silvia! - I'll have a think!
-
Oh wow! I feel so bad for ya fella!
Hopefully you boys can sort this!
-
Bump. Reduced price as i personally thought it was a tad high.
It also has a 0.6bar spring meaning you can low boost @ 0.6 and use your manual/elecontric boost controller to go higher. I ran this at 1bar on high and the gate held perfectly.
-
Was that what all the ££££££ was on snapchat lol
Yeah ahahaha!
-
So unfortunately i sold the car.
A lad local offered me £3800, and with my turbosmart wastegate i can sell on for £200+ the car returned me over £4000 which i cant grumble. I mad a loss of just over £1000 including buying/tuning. I had my fun, but it was time to move on.
The offer was too good to refuse.
I love this forum, the members and the invaluable knowledge I've gained.
I will most certainly return at some point.
I've moved onto to wanting somthing RWD, and i think a Silvia S14a is the next port of call. I'll most likely make a thread on here!
Thanks for everything
